Natalie Joos at Richard Chai Love

Yesterday on the first day Mercedes Benz Fashion Week (the first day of school!), Natalie Joos wore a beautiful and colorful oversize cardigan to the Richard Chai Love show. Great how the modern idea of pixellation is applied to an old-school medium like chunky knitwear. She balances it out with a muted bag and flared corduroys.

Shades of Gray, Outside Marni

A cool monochromatic look that works particularly well with her beautiful red hair.

Ada Kokosar at Gucci

Stylist Ada Kokosar wore a pale peach No. 9 dress and black (faux?) fur jacket and matching hat to the Gucci show. The look is romantic and moody, though the sleek cut of the dress keeps it modern.

Seeing Spots, Outside Moschino

If you haven’t noticed, polka dots have been everywhere this fall/winter 2012, a trend that was spearheaded by Marc Jacobs with his F/W 2011 collection. Loved this metallic polka dot dress outside the Moschino show in Milan. If you do not dare to do all-over polka dots, opt for something more subtle but equally fun, like these sheer polka dot stockings by Falke.

Tiffany Hsu at Balenciaga

Hong Kong’s Lane Crawford buyer Tiffany Hsu wore the coolest blue quilted dress to the Balenciaga show. The dress designer is Chictopia (like the website but not), but it’s not available in the West. The cobalt blue suede shoes are the perfect accessory.

Flared Skirt, Outside Gucci

It’s all too easy to fall into the jeans/pants rut when cold weather sets in, but remember: there are some great options in skirts. I’m especially loving skater and flared skirts like this one, which are so flattering and versatile. Pair it with black tights and a blazer and it’s instantly winterized.

Cara Delavigne, Outside Missoni

This year’s Victoria’s Secret fashion show was one of the most over-the-top in recent memory, with not just a $2.5 million diamond bra but performances by pop stars Justin Bieber and Rihanna, who looked so good on stage she could have been a Victoria’s Secret Angel herself. But I was especially enthralled with new girls like Karlie Kloss, Magdalena Frackowiak and Cara Delevingne, seen here in a signature quirky tomboy look after the Missoni show. So great to see these girls strutting their stuff for millions of viewers!

Miu Miu Mirror Paillette Dress, Outside Prada

On 57th Street and Fifth Avenue in New York, the shop windows are sparkling right now with rhinestone embellished shoes (Miu Miu) and mirrored backdrops for mirrored dresses (Naeem Khan at Bergdorf Goodman). This Miu Miu mirror paillette dress seen outside the Prada show would be an irreverent and fun take on holiday party dressing. The dress is sheer, but I like how she has worn black underneath to keep it simple. Pair it with sexy sheer black stockings in cold weather.  (more…)

Vintage Sweatshirt, Outside Missoni

Love how this guest at the Missoni show combined a vintage Indianapolis sweatshirt with stilettos and a YSL clutch. Like many people in the fashion industry, she starts out with a comfortable, casual outfit then adds amazing accessories to make it chic.

Black Dress and Feather Collar, Outside Rochas

This black dress with lace sleeves and an exuberantly over-the-top gray feather collar layered with a big necklace should be a good inspiration for holiday party dressing. If there’s ever a time to go all out with fun accessories, it’s during the holidays.

Bright Fur Vest, Outside Rochas

Before you wrap yourself up in a big black coat from now until March, consider the alternatives. Loved the bright colors on this guest at the Rochas show: aquamarine (faux?) fur vest set off by pops of magenta in her shoes, clutch and lipstick.

Ulyana Sergeenko at Dior

Ulyana Sergeenko swept into the Dior show in a dramatic tiered and tasseled wool skirt and an oversized hat. Her personal style strikes me as very 21st-century Anna Karenina – elegant and aristocratic.

Photographer in Plaid and Corduroy, Outside Chanel

Like this photographer outside the Chanel show, I just want to swathe myself in plaid and corduroy at this time of year. Love the French Aigle boots, too.

Tamu McPherson in Balenciaga Heels

Photographer Tamu McPherson gets the job done outside the Jil Sander show – even in a pencil skirt and amazing Balenciaga booties.

Model Ruby Aldridge combined retro high-waisted jeans with a vintage Leica camera outside the Moschino show.
