Sustainable Style Makeover: Celebrity ‘It Girls’ March 6th, 2010 By

We have been taking our cues from the super-stylish reality TV celebrity stars for a few seasons now, and it only gets better when you can draw inspiration from their fashion forward looks and turn them eco-conscious. Not sure where to start? Don’t worry, it’s all broken down for you in this post.

Get the very classic look sported above by the lovable Lauren Conrad by incorporating pieces from Stella McCartney. The designer is known for her clean and classic cuts that transcend time and trend. If you can only splurge on one piece, go for the blazer- it will win its worth over and over again, season after season.

Prefer the edgy chic look on Audrina Patridge? No problem. To get this casual street chic look, opt for a pair of skinny jeans from Levi’s that you can distress yourself and a super comfy slouchy top from SUST.

Whitney Port came to Manhattan as an innocent girl from out West, but she quickly showed us that she has the style sense to carry herself through the fierce fashion world. Get this fashion-forward look with draped separates and a great pair of statement heels. Style tip: layer a wide-neck short dress under the slouchy jodhpurs for a little more of an interesting look.

Olivia Palermo epitimizes the ‘Manhattan girl in fashion’ every girl dreams of becoming! Her style is effortless and always classy.  Here she strikes a perfect balance of casual street chic with industry professional. Get her look with striped basics from American Apparel, and a classic mini skirt from Stella McCartney.

Keep your eye on these fashionitas for continuously evolving style and be sure to incorporate your new essentials from an eco-minded label to keep fashion moving forward.

Now and Later: Seeing Red This Fall September 19th, 2009 By

People StyleWatch recommends red accessories as a trend to “Buy Now, Wear Now (And Later!)” in their August 2009 issue and they featured Vince Camuto’s Paloma peep-toe heels.  We love the way that a pair of bright red heels can brighten up any neutral outfit currently in your closet to make it fresh and current.  Look no further than Gossip Girl queen bee Leighton Meester for inspiration.  Her Brian Atwood red platform heels provided a great accent to the black & white ensemble she wore to the Teen Choice Awards.

Zip it Up! September 6th, 2009 By

So…zippers. Yeah. Zippers, my friends, will soon be all the rage in fashion – from bags to shoes to men’s fashion…you name it. Zippers as decorative touches. Now, far be it for me to judge fashion <ahem> but…really? Zippers to nowhere? Zippers just because. Zippers…because they’re pretty? or decorative? or sexy? I guess nobody thought that bell bottoms would be all the rage, either…

Red Hot! And...confusing
