Friday Frocks: Gold Diggers

I ain’t saying she’s a gold digger… Well, you know the rest. Something that caught my eye for Fall 2010 was the heavy use of gold and gold embellishment. One of my favorite shows of the season was Balmain. It was very gold heavy… I felt like I’d hit the jackpot. Speaking of jackpots, gold doesn’t necessarily have to be tacky (talking to you Atlantic City), it can be totally chic when done right. Here’s a glimpse at Balmain’s take on gold frocks and some ways to wear it yourself:

Friday Frocks: A Chill in the Air

Oh, there it is. That familiar nip in the air. Fall has arrived. Fashion week, pumpkin spice lattes, boots, and chunky cashmere are all the best parts of fall. This week’s frocks are dedicated to one of my very favorites, the sweater dress. Always comfy, always cool.
