The hottest look in long hair is over the shoulders as seen here on the Fall 2010 Runway. These over the shoulder styles have middle or side parts-some with blunt-cut or side swept bangs, but most without bangs. Hair can be layered around the sides and edges or cut all one length with blunt cut edges. For a more boho look, a smooth, sleek long look parted in the middle is appropriate. A blow dryer or flat iron can be used to get that smooth straight look. These long, over the shoulder styles are extremely versatile-perfect for a casual, business or dressy look and easily pulled back into a ponytail for workouts at the gym! These styles can be low maintenance with just a monthly trim to keep ends in shape.

Isn't this a fabulous bag for fall! This is the Dooney & Bourke Portofino Medium North/South Sac. Love the shape of this bag-a tote with a hobo vibe! This bag is a nice size-it measures 12" wide x 5" deep x 13" high and it has a 9' drop on the shoulder strap. The bag has a flat bottom with feet and a top zipper closure. I love the classic feel of this bag! And it comes in four colors besides black. See this bag at Zappos.com.

Women's Dress Jackets Designer Fashion Metallic Blazer 2010 2011







A metallic jacket...

is a dressy fashion basic for fall!

Isn't this type of metallic blazer fabulous looking! This jacket look is from the Dries Van Noten fall 2010 runway. I love the shorter cut of this jacket and the single button! A metallic jacket is the must-have dress piece for fall and winter. Perfect to wear to those holiday parties with or without a pretty little top underneath! So absolutely versatile-perfect with pants, a skirt, or over a little sleeveless dress! Push the sleeves up for a hip, with-it look and to make room for chunky bracelets!

This look with dark purple lips is from the Peter Som Fall 2010 Runway. Peter Som is just one of many designers to show goth style makeup for fall 2010 and winter 2011.


Here's the MAC Cosmetics face chart for this look:
Gothic Lipstick Hot Makeup Beauty Trends Deep Dark  Goth Lips Fall Winter 2010 2011  picture
This makeup look was created by MAC Cosmetics makeup artist Tom Pecheux who describes this look as,“...Uptown girl meets Woodstock, a shimmery golden eye to contradict the deep, dark purple lip."

The lips were created using a Lip Pencil in Currant – the pencil was lined around the natural shape of the mouth, for perfect lip definition

Then Lipstick in Kittenish was applied all over the lip with a MAC 242 Brush

Women's Dresses Long Jersey Knit Maxi Dress Hot Fashion Trends Fall 2010 2011







What's hot for fall & winter...

jersey knit maxi dresses!

Jersey knit maxi dresses are hot for fall! I love a jersey dress for the comfort factor and the versatility of this type of dress! A jersey dress is perfect with a jacket as the one shown here. You can create so many looks with one jersey dress and a mix of cardigans and jackets! A jersey maxi has an added bonus of making me look taller than I actually am-I'm not short, but every added inch of tallness is very cool! I discovered this dress at MADEWELL.

Tights and leggings are hotter than they've ever been! Tights in solid colors and all types of graphic design patterns are in style. Here's some fashion inspiration for wearing patterned tights and leggings! Tights are getting more funky-in a good way! They're edgy and fabulous with many patterns borrowed from nature-like lizard skin and snake skin and even fish scale patterns! And aren't these particular tights fabulous! These are hand printed tights from textile designer Gal Stern-see more at gal-stern.com.

Aren't these the cutest, coolest looking rain shoes! I just love the look of these! Reviewers report that they're not only cute but also comfortable! They have a full-length removable molded foot-bed and a 3/4" heel for comfort! And yes they're waterproof to keep our feet dry! The perfect little shoe for taking the dog for an early morning walk in the park or for those rainy October and November days. These are the Cormorant made by Sperry Top-Sider so I know the quality is there!

See these and other Sperry Top-Siders at Zappos.

Women's Sunglasses Hot Oversized Designer Square Sunglasses 2010 2011







Today I'm loving...

these women's square sunglasses!

Aren't these sunglasses hot! Love these oversized square frames! I've always loved large frames even when small frames were in style! I think large frames make a statement and they're just more practical with larger lenses that offer more protection from the sun. I have more of a round face so this square shape would probably look good on me-better than the round shape that I so dearly love!
