Styleist Gives You The First Look – William Rast for Target

imageSave some of your holiday budget: William Rast for Target is coming.


The hotly anticipated capsule collection by Justin Timberlake and Trace Ayala hits stores on Dec. 19 and is packed full of great jeans, jackets and leather outerwear – a big gift-giving item (as if you didn’t know by now).


The William Rast for Target collection includes jeans in skinny, boot-cut and straight-leg silhouettes, leggings and skirts. In addition, there are the uber-trendy military-inspired and plaid woven shirts, and the best part: the outerwear pieces made mainly in leather. There’s a motorcycle jacket, a cool tuxedo jacket and an amazing fringed jacket that combines William Rast’s signature tomboy fashion with feminine tailoring.


‘We’re excited to offer William Rast for Target just in time for the holidays’, Trish Adams, Target’s senior vice president, said in a statement, ‘providing women and men with one of the most exciting brands in denim at a great price.’


The items in this collection for men and women are a steal, ranging in price from $16.99 to $199.99 (regular William Rast sells for $50 to $700). Plan on hitting Target early because this collection will only be available through Jan. 22, 2011.

Beauty Pick Me Up – Winter Worthy Fragrances

imageThe days have gotten so chilly and the evenings are coming faster. Whether you’re the type to keep an extensive collection of perfumes to match your mood, or like to have just a couple signature scents, ’tis the season to switch up the summer scent into one that packs a little more of a punch.


While light, refreshing smells are great for hot sunny days, cold weather calls for more saturated and sensual scents. If you’re into a more spicy scent, look for notes of sandalwood or bergamot. More of a floral scent fan? Try rose or gardenia blossoms, or notes of jasmine. Vanilla is always a sensuous backdrop to any winter scent and for those who really want to make an exotic statement, a touch of leather or honey is unique and sexy without being overly femme.


Ready to do a little fragrance perusing? Click on the slideshow to see some of our fave winter fragrances! Also look for travel size or roller-ball versions of your favorite scents to keep smelling seductive and delicious throughout the day! A pretty bottle of a sumptuous scent is also a great and personal holiday gift!

The SHG – Do It Your Way

imageTrends are definitely fun to follow, but following a trend also means that you’ll be wearing a lot of similar styles as others. A mark of true style chops is the ability to make an ensemble that so many others are wearing into a look that’s all your own! It doesn’t have to take your whole paycheck to step out in a one-of-a-kind style. All it takes is a little creativity and minor DIY skills to take any outfit from a dime a dozen to one in a million!



Antique Pins – Vintage pins and brooches can be found for a reasonable price at any pawn or antique shop and because they’re vintage, you’re guaranteed a unique piece! Place them on skirts and outerwear as hard-ware. Or place a few on a scarf!



Large Silk Flowers – These voluminous accessories are truly multi-functional. Try floral clips on shoes for a cute, retro spin. Or make a statement by fixing a large silk flower to hair or wrist. Really turn heads and amp up the fashion with a large flower on a would-be basic dress. Really go for gusto by combining different colors or sizes!



Studs And Such – A boring tee or shorts, simple leggings or even your fave pair of jeans gets an instant makeover with the addition of just a few studs or hardware. You can get studs and stud setters at any craft-store, but for bonus DIY points, use the studs from an old belt, or piece of jewelry!
