Clogs are back! I love clogs. I think clogs are sexy, sophisticated, and versatile. The clog can actually make the ankle look hot; the best look to me is a clog with a capri boyfriend jean. That is smokin! Of course ladies I am talking about a clog with a heel; one without a heel screams I am wanting to be a nun or heading to a job where comfort is what it is all about. Now, that's ok, but not to meet a girlfriend for lunch, or a trip to the city for shopping, or happy hour with the hubby. The clog looks best when shown off with the hip outfit. Think loose denim, maybe a few rips, a great white tee and a fabulous blazer paired with a sexy clog. Lauren by Ralph Lauren makes a hot clog called "Stasia". It is $98 and a combo of leather and suede. I love the "Fawn" clog by Diane Von Furstenberg for $295. You can find them at http://www.net-a-porter.com/
The Messenger Bag is back and has a message, she is here to stay! The messenger bag has never left my closet. I love this bag for it's versatility and ability to hold anything from work needs to your favorite Chanel lipstick.
One of my favorite looks and color to wear is army, army green! In for fall, and the bandwagon you should jump on is the army jacket. There is nothing fancy or dressy about the army jacket; it is a casual but cool jacket. It looks fantastic with the ripped skinny or straight jean with a fabulous boot. You can go long, short, or regular length. Stay away from the cropped. Check out Gap and JCRew for cool looks with great prices for this jacket. I love the "summer surplus" linen cotton jacket at http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/ It is pricey, $650, but check it out and the look around for the same look for less.
Denim jackets are super hot again. I just pulled my Juicy denim jacket out that I purchased five years ago! Denim jackets go in and out, but when they are in, you need to jump on this boat and depart when the ride is over. When you get off board hopefully you have a great denim jacket that you can pack away for it's next trip, like mine, whether 2, 3 or 4 years later. The key to having that perfect denim jacket is staying classic with the look. No patches, or too many rips, all you need is a great wash to keep bringing this jacket back. I love the dark wash denim jacket, the faded, and the classic or slim fit. You can always find a great jean jacket from Levi's, http://www.levi.com/ for a very reasonable price. Of course you will find a fabulous jean jacket from a lot of the premier denim lines.
The clog will look great with any of these jackets while sporting the totally cool messenger bag. Guys have fun with these looks, and make them your own!
