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.

Almost everything is on sale at Ross Simons, 25% off! Items on their website are shown with the discount. (if sale prices aren’t showing use code: SUPERSALE, through 6/10)
I like this 5 carat smoky quartz ring with diamond accents in 14k gold. It’s normally $385, on sale for $288.75!
These sapphire earrings have 1.75 carats of sapphires and diamond accents in 14 k white gold. They’re normally $295, on sale $221.25.
This is a quirky item – they’ve obviously “borrowed” the look from Vuitton! Pink Opal Heart Pendant with 18k gold butterflies and diamond accents, regular $1650, sale $1237.50.
Here’s what I’m talking about, regarding the Vuitton look – it’s not exactly the same but they have the same vibe…
This is the Louis Vuitton Farandole Bracelet, $420.

Sara Jessica Parker was spotted running errands in New York in a very low key ensemble highlighted by the Louis Vuitton Leopard Print Scarf. The print was created for Vuitton by the late Stephen Sprouse.
The scarf is amazingly still available! (it seems the Sprouse rose print sold out almost immediately)
The scarf is a cashmere/silk blend. It is a very large size of aprox. 51 x 79 inches. It is $715. Here is the link for purchasing. The Vuitton site doesn’t allow direct linking to products, so when you go to the site you can enter “leopard stole” into the search box to bring you to the product listing.
For those of us who cannot afford the Vuitton version (boo hoo hoo), there are some other options… and much more reasonably priced!
Here’s one from Harmony Lane, Leopard Fringe Scarf, $35. It is 100% cotton.
This one is super cute, because it is printed with leopard and cherries! It’s Galliano… but it’s sort of Vuitton-esque because it combines the leopard and cherries (they did the Murakami cherries). It is 100% silk and is $135 at Zappos Couture.
