Dylan George Elizabeth Bootcut

Love these jeans from the William Rast crew. Such a 'sexy back'. You can find them at Lisa Kline.

Summer Hats

Another item I think would go with my fantasy vacation would be a cute hat. I never wear them, but might be tempted if I had one of these (Panama Asymmetrical Cloche or Floppy Boho Fedora)!

Monocolor

Another interesting article in New York Magazine (I may need to subscribe after this!) is One Is the Loveliest Color about 5 New Yorkers living their lives in a daily ensemble of one color. New Yorker's really know how to create a signature look, don't they?

Color of the Year

PANTONE® 18-3943 BLUE IRIS

I was looking through some of the Fall Collections from NY Fashion Week and noticed a heavy-handed trend of blues, greys and blacks. The blue was quite lovely and while contemplating it's hue, I remembered blue was Pantone's Color of the Year and realized it made its presence known in fashion this year, albeit, mostly in a more muted version.


Even Rachel Zoe got in on the blue action at Marc Jacobs.

***Update: On my new Mac with the kickass graphics card, the color of the year image swatch is showing a little more purple than it did on my other computer! Ooops! Maybe the color wasn't as hot this year in fashion as I previously thought it was. :) Wow..I feel as though I have been colorblind until now!

Holiday Dress

What a beauty this ABS dress is that Amber of Daisy Chain found at Dillards! I have been keeping an eye out for dresses for the annual company Christmas Party and would LOVE to wear this little number, but fear it is just too short. What if it was paired with black tights and black pumps or knee high boots? The Coordinator in my department wears sweater dresses that length to work even though it is against company policies and they seem to overlook it, so maybe it would be alright for me to wear at a party, right?
