    Valuable Vests for Less Than $20! [8 Under $20]

    I started my winter break internship this week, and it obviously called for a major shopping trip before I hit the Big Apple last weekend. I visited a few the stores and came home with sweaters, skirts, dresses and countless other bags that didn’t make my wallet happy.

    Celebrity Chic on the Cheap: Olivia Palermo is Sassy in Leather

    Even though Olivia Palermo hasn’t graced our TV screens in a while, the paparazzi is still following her around. I don’t know why, but she’s stylish and I covet many of her ensembles, so I’m cool. She’s like the American Kate Middleton, but way more visually interesting (and personally I think she has better hair).

    Fashion Porn: Fashion Goes S&M

    Leather is one of the biggest fabrics for fall 2010. It is also one of the easiest to embrace because EVERYTHING can be made in leather: bags, shoes, leggings, shorts, jackets, skirts…the list goes on. And I love it all. Leather is sexy. It’s edgy. And it makes everything look cool.

    I Love Your Style: Adrianna La Cerva

    Being an Italian-American myself, I’ve always been drawn to things that rep’ my ethnicity, whether its contributions like calzones, or “contributions” like The Jersey Shore. But if there’s one thing Italiano that I could never take my eyes off of, it was a little show called The Sopranos.

  • From Stylehive: Rick Owens and Eastpack Collaborate It Up

    From Stylehive: Rick Owens and Eastpack Collaborate It Up

    Long ago, I resigned myself to the fact that I’d never own anything by Rick Owens. Leather jackets priced in the area of my rent just aren’t going to happen, even if they’re supposedly comfortable enough to live in. Not buying it, literally.

This season keep your eyes open for some of the usual suspects (oversized bags, clutches and pops of color), some rollover from the fall (fringe) and some new looks (well, not necessarily new, but trends we haven’t seen in a while).

    Tuffy Luv Saves Some Aminals

    Dear Tuffy Luv, After watching a super scary PETA video, I can’t look in my closet anymore without picturing dead animal carcasses. I need places to buy vegan clothes. And shoes if you can. And fast. I can’t handle getting nauseous when I get dressed anymore.
