The Stylish Vote: Christian Milian, Eva Longoria, Zoe Saldana

30 Aug

Dressed in eye-catching hues accented by soft flowing tresses, these celebrity style stars are doing it right! Christian Milian glowed in a full-length backless yellow gown with minimal accessories at the 11th Annual BMI Urban Awards in Los Angeles.

Eva Longoria got a jump-start on one of fall’s biggest color trends wearing a vibrant red tunic dress with a tassel belt, nude peep-toe pumps and a snake print clutch in route to a dinner spot in Hollywood. Zoe Saldana made the rounds promoting her new flick, “Colombiana,” in L.A., dressed in a salmon-colored cocktail dress with a touch of draping paired with nude stilettos.

**UPDATE** This poll is closed. Zoe Saldana is the Stylin’ Chick of the Week.

Lookbook Love: Fall Fashion

We’ve got fall fashion on the brain! Blame it on the September issues of every major fashion publication having taken over newsstands everywhere. Or that nearly ever clothing store has ushered in their fall wares. Or that online shops are sending e-alerts about everything from boots to trench coats to draped sweaters now on sale. We’re waiting patiently to break out autumn’s best!

Check out a few looks from our favorite fall campaigns from Zara, H&M, Ann Taylor, TopShop and ASOS:

Fab Finds Under $100: Color-Block Sweater

25 Aug

While blog-surfing, we spotted Solange Knowles making the celebrity rounds in a chic color-block sweater and trouser pant ensemble at Macy’s INC International Concepts event in NYC. The color-blocked top immediately stood out — and we fell in love with it even more once when we learned it was a piece that everyday fashionistas could afford.

Solange opted for mustard yellow cropped trousers and leopard print heels. Put a different spin on the INC International Concepts sweater by pairing it with a cobalt blue pencil skirt and nude shoe booties. Or if you’re going for a more casual look, try a pair of wide-leg trouser jeans and platform wedges.
