Who doesn’t want a wrapped Ryan Gosling for Christmas?! Hmmm… two words: YES. PLEASE.

 If you loved Robin’s blouse on last night’s midseason finale of “How I Met Your Mother” – here it is! Equipment’s Brett Colorblock blouse (Canada) is great with jeans or dress pants. Robin’s black cherry J Brand 811′s are a great complement to the colorblock natural white/black. If you love white and black blouses – this unexpected combination is a great neutral and a holiday staple!

must-have: angora fedora
Gearing up for an East Coast winter, I welcomed two Hat Attack purchases from Dealuxe this week. The charcoal Angora Fedora (#1) and the chocolate brown Vicky Floppy hat. I’ve always loved hats, they’re a go-to accessory where fashion meets function… keeping your hair protected, head warm, and your outfit oh-so chic in one of the quickest ways possible. Depending on the color(s) of your jacket(s), I suggest the grey for blondes, and the taupe for brunettes (#2) – angora rabbit fur makes a great neutral that works with countless styles of coats, jackets and blazers. For the daring, the Beaver finished fem fedora with self band (#3) takes this statement style to another level. And the Aspen Hat in green (with teal), white (with yellow), and black (with grey) shouldn’t be missed.
leopard skinny jeans

Skinny jeans are nothing new, but it might be time to consider a different hue. Wow, while my rhyming might be a bit much – Current/Elliott’s “The Stiletto Leopard Print Pants” are not! Coming in camel (Mandy Moore style) and gray leopard (Ã la Sarah Jessica and Isla), these statement pants are a trendy piece you can build your outfit around. Soft animal prints (leopard, cheetah, snakeskin, zebra) are a great neutral, so while with the camel mustard colour you want the rest of your outfit to be black, gray or white; with the gray and black style there’s room for color (like SJP’s pink coat or Isla’s red shoes) – just avoid the urge to go wild, and keep it to one item. And as always with animal prints, you only want to wear one patterned piece per outfit. Grrr!
THINK PINK must-haves
PINK is everywhere this month. With proceeds from so many PINK products going towards Breast Cancer Awareness, it’s a great excuse to treat yourself, or buy some gifts (the holidays will be here before we know it!). And for those who are over showing their pink, many products are offered in white, black, patterned-neutral and more subtle but still supportive hues. So THINK PINK.
cover girls for a cause

GLAMOUR magazine’s October 2011 issue is dedicated to Breast Cancer Awareness Month. And cover girls Alicia Keys, Jennifer Aniston, and Demi Moore are walking the walk. Their interviews profile each celeb’s involvement in helping launch the women’s advocacy project: Five, a series of films about women and breast cancer. The two-hour feature, airing on Lifetime on October 10, is a series showing how breast cancer affects women’s lives, families and friendships. Alicia, Jen and Demi each directed a film with stars of the pieces including some of Hollywood’s strongest actresses, like Rosario Dawson. Sadly, everyone is affected by this tragic disease, giving even more reason to fight it. So tune in and become empowered to envision a future without breast cancer.
