Fall/Winter 2010 Fashion Trend: Retro Full Skirts

This fall it is all about traditional silhouettes -- either extremely masculine (i.e., military inspired pieces, menswear shoes) or uber feminine with full skirts, dresses, and coats as seen above at Prada, Louis Vuitton, Lanvin, and Marc by Marc Jacobs. 50s-style retro full skirts were all over the AW2010 runways -- think Mad Men! I am loving this trend, although I do think it would be hard to translate the super full skirts like those featured at Louis Vuitton into an everyday wardrobe. But the Lanvin coat and Marc by Marc Jacobs dress above are both gorgeous and definitely more wearable. If you can't wait to channel your inner Betty Draper, below are some options to consider: Dot couture dress for $57.99 on www.modcloth.com; "About the Artist" dress for $52.99 on www.modcloth.com; Dahlia funnel neck buckle fastening trench coat for $185.35 on www.asos.com; Heartbreaker 40s style "Diner" dress for $84 on www.unique-vintage.com; "Soda Fountain" dress for $44.99 on www.modcloth.com; "Put on a Party" dress for $164.99 on www.modcloth.com; "Pins and Needles" high-waisted skirt for $58 on www.urbanoutfitters.com; Marc by Marc Jacobs fatigue stretch twill strapless dress for $348 on www.nordstrom.com; Heartbreaker 50s style "Swing" dress for $76 on www.unique-vintage.com; TBA double-breasted swing coat for $278.03 on www.asos.com; "Mullany" dress for $258 on www.anthropologie.com; Sparkle and Fade full voile skirt on sale for $29 on www.urbanoutfitters.com; "Star Lake" dress for $94.99 on www.modcloth.com; Feathered "Perch" skirt for $148 on www.anthropologie.com.

Fall/Winter 2010 Fashion Trend: Camel

One of the hottest colors for fall and winter this year is camel. Camel colored apparel was all over the AW2010 runways as seen above at Derek Lam, Salvatore Ferragamo, Alexander Wang, and Chloe. I'm a big fan of this color myself because it is a very versatile neutral that looks good on nearly all skin tones and all hair colors. I already own a camel-colored leather bomber jacket that I can't wait to break out this fall! If you are liking this on-trend color, below are a few pieces to consider: ASOS contrast three-quarter sleeve cardigan for $53.92 on www.asos.com; Alice + Olivia "Grody" mesh back dress for $242 on www.shopbop.com; ASOS contrast trim cape for $134.80 on www.asos.com; Fitzwell "Dyan" flat for $69 on www.zappos.com; Leather tunic dress for $310 on www.topshop.com; Z Spoke by Zac Posen jersey knit dress for $355 on www.saks.com; Mixed dolman sweater for $27.80 on www.forever21.com; BB Dakota "Riverton" coat for $101 on www.lulus.com; Franco Sarto "Deal" clog for $109 on www.piperlime.com; ASOS pleated swing coat for $117.95 on www.asos.com; Mid-thigh pencil skirt for $49.90 on www.express.com; Ruffled-bottom belted wool trench coat for $168 on www.express.com; Boatneck knit top for $27.80 on www.express.com; Charles David "Nexus" bootie for $250 on www.piperlime.com; Current/Elliott corduroy skinny pant for $189 on www.shopbop.com; Covet french terry tunic for $105 on www.nationaljeancompany.com.
