We Love Topshop - Lookbook



Count on Topshop to instantly take to the big runway trends like viruses to their host cells, if you will.Regardless, if you're looking for Balmain's sequined minidresses, Dolce's big, shaggy "fur" coats,Rodarte's shredded knits, and, of course, those stellar thigh-high boots (somehow looks suspiciously amazing on the model...but we won't believe it 'til we see it in person!) at decent prices, Topshop will be your mecca this fall. The lookbook even has a little homage to New York with a section called "Manhattan Cocktail," which is a hodge-podge of going-out looks. Meanwhile, the "Highland Fling" section features that kind of rugged, bundled-up cool Opening Ceremony also copped in their fall lookbook. Finally, we're seeing another Edie Sedgwick revival in the leopard-print, brocade minidresses, and heavily-rimmed eyes. But then again, when isn't there one of those? More looks after the jump....

Fancy Pants


The tuxedo is the smart way to dress up - and hide those knobbly knees, says Hilary Alexander.

Tuxedos in pictures

Knobbly, wobbly, or cobbled together with the scars of a hundred childhood bike-rides which ended in disaster (as are mine), they are one of the least attractive parts of the body, unless, of course, you happen to have a pair of perfect patellas, such as those which intersect the enviable pins of the Duchess of Cambridge.

"Coco" Chanel, wasn't fond of knees; she looked upon them with distaste, decreed 'the perfect skirt' would always cover the bony abominations, and was the first women to wear trousers in public. (Karl Lagerfeld, incidentally, in his haute couture collection for Chanel, earlier this month, paid homage to the legacy by insisting all his models wore over-the-knee boots in satin or leather, veiled in chiffon and tulle).

The tux is about style, not fashion

All great news for women with a mild form of 'genuphobia', since trousers have emerged as the heroes of the new-modern wardrobe.

Wide or second-skin skinny, flared or fitted, cropped or over-the-ankle, trousers are the ultimate anti-knee champions, flattering and fashionable, and, not to mention, way more functional and practical than a maxi-skirt.

Their return to the frontline of the fashionscape, has prompted a re-think of the working wardrobe, as well as a revival in the way we address trousers for evening.

The 'tuxedo', a la Yves Saint Laurent's 1966 'le smoking', has, of course, long been one of the usual suspects on the party circuit and red carpet, favoured by every celebrity from Bianca Jagger, Julie Andrews and Catherine Deneuve, to Naomi Watts, Mary-Kate Olsen and Eva Mendes, and has remained impervious even to the nonsensical ban imposed by the dress code-dinosaurs at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

But tuxedo-dressing has been given an update by way of the 1970's revival in general, Tom Ford's glam take on the tux, and Marc Jacobs' fascination with one of his "fave" inspirations, YSL.

Jacobs, unlike Ford, eschewed the classic black, in favour of satin 'le smokings' in the mouthwatering colours of a Ladurée macaroon.

Designers as diverse as Donna Karan, Ashish, Balmain, and Dries Van Noten have merged the Saint Laurent look with glam-rock, via glitzy DJ-jackets and/or trousers which, far from being relics of 'the decade taste forgot', have a new lease of life because of loose-cut, 'boyfriend' tailoring. And bargain-hunters will find luxe labels like these a little more purse-friendly in the July sales.

Create your own DIY tuxedo-style by putting a bling-bling jacket with plain black trousers or jeans, or vice versa, a tailored jacket with Dorothy Perkins' sequined strides, (as photographed); Markus Lupfer's gold, sequined stretch trousers, down from £350 to £175, at theoutnet.com; or the Moto bronze foil, snakeprint jeans, £60, at Topshop.

Then, put on the glam-rock 'n' roll Ritz with Alber Elbaz's favourite tux-cessory - a floppy bow-tie.

Scarlett Johansson and mango, together in Fiesta collection

For the second consecutive year, Scarlett Johansson is the image of Mango. The beauty and sensuality of this American actress wears the new Autumn-Winter 2010 – 2011 in the Spanish fashion brand, and gives us glamorous looks to be the trend this season.

Considered one of the most beautiful and sexy women from film, Scarlett Johansson wears “Fiesta” (the name of the collection), to show the proposed Mango for festive occasions.

The truth is that the looks are spectacular, full of brightness, but with great elegance. In the actress look great, as always, we’ll have to check at the store if the items are actually just as attractive as the images of the catalog.

These models are ideal for this holiday season, where events are multiplied: business dinner, Christmas dinner, New Year’s Eve, etc. In addition, we can realize what are the tones will be dark, with a return to the trend of the brightness.

Coats, usually far from elegant and appropriate for a special occasion, unless you invest a considerable sum of money in a specific format, thinking that maybe I’ll use it rarely desist. Mango brings low-cost solution for this garment, with a spectacular brocade coat in midnight blue.

In shades of gold and a sexy cut, this mini-dress strapless neckline is ideal for evening wear year-end.

The nude color or makeup is considered “the new black”, so if you go for a model in this key, matching the look you wear your special events. The model looks so spectacular that Scarlett in the catalog of the collection “Fiesta” Mango for autumn-winter 2010-2011 is elegant and has a very feminine and romantic touch to the design.

Very 70′s in the wave, is this maxi-dress that combines transparency and brightness. Ideal if you like the comfort and go for something different.

Sexy and youthful look that shines is the muse of Woody Allen, combining pailettes top and skirt with small ruffles, completing the outfit with a wide belt. All in black, star of the night color.

There are times that require certain looks, as the dinners. If you do not want to look too appealing, but a stylish and casual, opt for an evening gown and jacket. Which includes Mango in this collection mixes the blue trousers and the lapels with the brightness of the jacket.
