Two Hot Hues for Fall

Fall is quickly approaching, and that means it’s time to once again rethink our wardrobe. One of the key ingredients—and easiest tactics—for updating a look is incorporating the season’s hottest colors. Sifting through all the minimalist neutrals, ladylike pastels and bold jewel tones on the Fall 2010 runways, two shades continuously caught our eye: heather gray and lipstick red. Though these hues aren’t exactly neighbors on the color spectrum nor are they particularly new on the scene, they’ve still got the power to wow.

Heather gray boasts a flattering neutrality and universal appeal that make it a welcomed choice for fall. From nail polish to a completely gray ensemble, this muted shade is everywhere this season. Chances are you already own some heather gray garb, but working in items with au courant shapes and cuts will be an instant wardrobe refresher.

Lipstick red, on the other hand, is a bit trickier. Some women love its vibrancy; others hate it. When worn from head-to-toe, the shade can be a bit overwhelming for paler skin tones, but when used in smaller doses, this red is a radiant jolt of color. Find pieces with lipstick red mixed into the print or one-tone basics, such as a pencil skirt, cardigan, blouse, tights, bag or flats. Such options are plentiful for fall, allowing you to add an unexpected surge of color via dramatic, versatile pieces.

Dana Rebecca Gets More Red Carpet Action

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

Last week, we showed you Nikki Reed wearing diamond bracelets by Chicago designer Dana Rebecca, and Monday night she sported the fine jewelry again at the LA premiere of New Moon. Nikki looked sweet yet hip in her canary blue Burberry dress, accented with Dana Rebecca earrings, ring and bracelets.

Her cast mates, Kristen Stewart, Ashley Greene and Dakota Fanning, also vamped up the evening. Kristen glowed in Oscar de la Renta, Ashley was sexy and classy in Prabal Gurung, and Dakota kicked her little girl image to the curb in an edgy Valentino number.
