Really Forever21?!

Reds
Forever 21 Knocked Off Celine’s Trapeze Bag & Didn’t Bother To Change The Name It’s no secret that Forever 21 sells its fair share of designer knock-offs, but when we saw this one we couldn’t help but balk. Not only does it look exactly like Celine’s Trapeze bag, but it’s even called the same thing! We can’t decide if Forever 21′a brazen copycat behavior is the result of an oversight or reflective of their IDGAF attitude toward ripping off designer work. Copying design is one thing, but going so far as to even name your bag the same thing? That’s just flagrant and we’re kinda shocked. What do you think? Do you think Forever 21 should at least change the name of their Celine Trapeze knock-off bag or is all fair…

White is the new Black

Reds
The little black dress may be the epitome of classic sophistication, but lately we're more interested in its modern counterpart—the little white dress. With streamlined silhouettes and interesting embellishments, a white cocktail frock makes a definitive statement without being flashy (like you'd get with red or brights) or boring (other neutrals like gray are chic, but don't stand out the same way). We love the way fashion-forward ladies like Zoe Saldana and Naomi Watts are currently wearing this key piece, and think you’ll find their choices inspiring too. Read on for all of today’s outfit details and shop similar styles to get the look now. On The Runway Nothing makes us want to fill up our evening social calendar quite like Prabal Gurung’s Ice White Silk Cloque Drop Waist Dress with…

DIY: Studded Nails

Reds
Decadent, armor-like couture is charging the runways, with opulent looks popping up in gilded corsets, beaded knits, and layered ornamental necklaces. The pieces read like renaissance gowns- almost dripping with texture and detail. The over-the-top look is staging a coup against the simple silhouettes we’ve been seeing dominate the catwalks. If you’re not quite ready to slough off the basics and switch alliances, try integrating the trend into your look on a smaller scale with layered metallic bangles, chunky bejeweled earrings or a blinged out manicure.

Style Tips for Spring

Reds
Just like clockwork, every spring the stripe returns to the spotlight, but this season’s play on the motif is bigger and bolder than ever. The look is a sophisticated nod to ‘60s-inspired style, and we’ve noticed several fashionphiles earning their stripes in a way that’s easy to replicate. From Nicole Richie’s graphic dress to Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s striking jumpsuit, continue reading to see how these stylish girls wear bold stripes, then shop the look today. On The Runways Striped patterns dominated the season’s runways, particularly at Marc Jacobs’ S/S 13 show. The designer’s collection channeled a decidedly mod mood: thick parallel stripes covered everything from atailored blazer to a slim skirt and the Black And Ivory Silk Jersey Dress ($1900, 212.343.1490), paired with Black Patent Leather Mary Jane Flats ($625, 212.343.1490). Yet the look remained modern…

A Lil Leather Never Hurt Nobody

Reds
Slim leather leggings will always be a mainstay in cool girls’ stylish wardrobes, but this season, it's all about another runway favorite—the baggy leather trouser. These low-slung, slouchy pants are more menswear-chic than their skinny rock ‘n’ roll counterparts and are becoming increasingly popular among fashion insiders and well-dressed celebs alike. We find them completely desirable too, as they offer the perfect blend of androgyny and understated sex appeal. For tips on how to wear this spring essential and to shop the season’s best styles, don’t miss today’s Trend Report. On The Runways At Balmain, designer Olivier Rousteing showed his version of the baggy leather trouser—a high-waisted pant with front-pleat details and a cuffed hem—which perfectly embodied the collection’s Miami-in-the-'80s theme. Paired here with the Yellow Short-Sleeved Cropped Top Embroidered with…

Can I Kick It?

Reds
I'm far from a sneakerhead but I can appreciate some cool kicks! Especially when they're unique, colorful & flirty, like these: When it comes to truly stylish, comfortable footwear, sneakers are the new ballet flats. Isabel Marant first introduced her now-ubiquitous sneaker wedges in 2010, which quickly became the go-to shoe for fashion’s elite, including top editors, models, and celebrities like Beyonce, who rocked a pair in her “Love On Top” music video. Since then, the humble sneaker’s been reinvented in lively colors and punchy prints, elevating them to must-have status for any cool girl. In fact, a number of trendsetters—Rihanna, Jessica Alba, and Chloe Moretz, to name a few—are wearing sneakers to add a fresh, contemporary flair to their looks.

Ways to Wear Tailored Shorts

Reds
Put the word “tailored” in front of an article of clothing and that piece is instantly elevated. When applied to shorts, the casual spring staple goes from weekend-only to office and evening-appropriate. It’s that kind of versatility that makes tailored shorts newly appealing, and explains why stylephiles such as Gwen Stefani, Alexa Chung, and Julianne Hough are all fans of this new essential. Over the last couple of months, we’ve noticed a group of influencers wearing more structured shorts, and find their top-notch styling choices, from a bright monochrome shorts suit to a preppy stripes and denim mix, wholly inspiring. Keep reading for more ways to wear this key piece all season long. WHO: Julianne Hough WHAT: Visiting Good Day in Philadelphia to promote Safe Haven. WEAR: NoNoo Royal Blue Cotton and Silk Octavia…

Watercolor’s not just for Paper!

Reds
In Clueless, when Cher dubs popular girl Amber a “Monet,” it’s because she appears attractive from afar but her looks don't quite match up upon closer inspection. Thankfully, that’s not the case with these artistic watercolor pieces, which look perfectly stylish whether seen from a distance or not! This season, it seems as if everything from silky button-downs to skinny jeans are drenched in the dreamy, pastel motifs, and the look couldn’t be more appropriate for spring. At turns the trend is chic and youthful, like Ashley Madekwe’s Etro Butterfly Print Dress ($1998, 310.248.2855) at the Rodeo Drive Walk of Style event in Beverly Hills last December. The Revenge star’s frock stands out, thanks to the brushstroke butterfly print that pops against the white mini dress. At other times, watercolors feel more romantic and feminine,…
