J. Mendel Pre-Fall 2010

A mostly neutral/dark palette, splashes of red and a soft yellow with metallics mixed in.  Lovely gowns and elegant coctail attire with lovely details.  Here are the looks that I think stood out from J. Mendel's pre-Fall 2010:

Icon or Inspiration?

Yesterday, Paloma over at La Dolce Vita (lovely blog, check it out if you haven't already) had a post posing the question - Olivia Palermo: Style Icon? with lots of photos of Ms. Palermo and her amazing outfits.  I watched the first season of The City and I have to say I was very taken with how the socialite dressed, really put together with amazing accessories.  However, I was totally put off by her "mean girl" persona.  While I can't say she's like that in real life - God knows The City isn't "real life" - it did taint the way I viewed her.  If I remove the way she is on the show and just look objectively at her pictures, then yes, she is quite the stylish young lady.  Icon?  Maybe not just yet.  Inspiration?  Most certainly!  Here are a few of my favorite looks:

Inspiration via The Sartorialist

Here are a couple of recent images from The Sartorialist taken in Sydney, Australia.  I found these rather inspiring, so I thought I would share.  I think those ladies in the second picture are wearing "my" shoes, oh man...

Michael Kors Pre-Fall 2010

Not a speck of blue here, lots of black, with hits of red, pink(!), white and a yellowish khaki.  Clean lines and wearable clothes.  Here are my picks from this collection:
