  • Highlights from Allure’s September Issue

    Undoubtedly the September issues of the fashion magazines are the most thrilling of the year.  Here are some tips from Allure who featured Kim Kardashian on their cover.

    In the beauty reporter (pg. 76) they feature Dior’s gorgeous new mini clutch featuring three eye shadows and 2 lip glosses.  The lip glosses are in their own section under a gold lift-up door, so they don’t get the powdery eye shadow in them, clever, right? Look out for it as Saks Fifth Avenue this Fall, retail price $80.

    Fall looks:

    Schoolgirl (pg. 85)  The Look: blazers, skirts, coats, sweaters with a classic preppyish look but with a modern twist to keep them current.  Some examples…

    Nightcap Clothing’s Patch V-Neck Tee, $154

    Alice + Olivia Plaid Shorts, $198

    Army (pg. 86)   The Look: rugged dresses and jackets, lug sole boots, dog tag necklaces.

    Marc by Marc Jacobs Uniform Cotton Dress, $298

    Gucci Dog Tag Necklace, $275

    Boxy Hand Held Bags (pg. 88)  The Look: squarish or rectangle shape bags with top handles.

    Nine West Plain Jane Flannel Satchel, $89

    Classic Example: Louis Vuitton Speedy 30, $690.

    Ankle Boots (pg. 90)  The Look: straps, zippers, platforms, open toes, cut-outs (variety!)

    Giuseppe Zanotti Ankle Boots, $488

    Charles by Charles David Ankle Boot, $144.95.
