On Point
So glad I held on to some of my pointy-toed heels circa early 2000s...the tip is back in action!
Never thought I'd like those studded Valentino's but I'm suddenly finding them extremely covetable for fall. (The kitten-heel version? Not so much.)
Get inspired by Elle's top picks!
1. Calf leather pump, Louis Vuitton, $923
2. Studded lizard pump, Valentino, $1,195
3. Faux leather slingback, Stella McCartney, $645
4. Patent leather pump, Prada, $650
KiMELEON + Native L.A.
KiMELEON friendship headbands are now available on the killaaa shopping site Native L.A.
Get 'em while they're hot! Like for real...great price + end of summer = rush order that ish.
Hippie Living
Who: Anja Rubik by Inez & Vinoodh
What: Vogue Paris September issue
Why: High-class hippie living for a lil' pre-fall inspo!
Blazer Show
We all know a blazer layer adds instant style and sophistication. But these fresh takes on lapels, colors, cut and function are changing the dressing game.
Best tickets in town!
Spot of KiMELEON
I was beyond when one of the editors at Jezebel (Emily) asked KiMELEON for a selection of fascinators for an afternoon tea shoot with...Erin Andrews!
It's a beauty piece that was shot at the Ritz in ATL––doesn't Erin look smashing in her 'In Louve' clip?
The entire article ––> right this way!

KiMELEON Dealin'
The Style Network's supersite MyStyle has introduced a very exclusive discount for KiMELEON!
All you need is the key word––found here––and $20 in KiMELEON kash is yours!
(Or...visit KiMELEON Couture and use promo code MYSTYLE20––bam!)
Mani Monday
A little mani-spiration on a Monday never hurt anyone! I'm DIY-ing to try the floral/glitter combo above (from who can I buy an hour of patience/time to pre-cut the floral press-ons??)
And this YSL pastel combo below? YES!
FabFile
The striped sunset pattern above isn't too shabby, either. In fact, I may even try it sans stripes for an ultra ombré effect.
Or...I'll just go to Little Tokyo and let the professionals handle it. Either/or.

True Blue
Nothing crazy here...just a denim spread from the new issue of Elle. But something about Jessica Hart looking all Americana in Isabel Marant, YSL, Balmain and more...is pure jeanious.
Showstoppers
My pre-fall queue has been kick-started with something that really glistens...
Miuccia Prada's sparkly trompe l'oeil booties––and they're delicious!
Fashionologie
Just $890 a pop at Miu Miu.
Bright Ideas
Tommy Ton did his thang outside the couture shows in Paris last week...and I'm gonna do my thang this week with leopard color-blocking, arm parties...and ankle cuffs?!?!
Style
White On Time
So my new post for GUESS Watches is up...and it's about time. Bright, shiny, unisex time. Ch-ch-check it out!
Just Rosie
Of Kors! Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a vision...a univision!
During last week's press junket for her new movie (Transformers), she took her flawless premiere style from Moscow to Rio to Letterman.
Breakout performance, indeed.
The Clash
Lookbook
As much as I'm loving a monochromatic red ensemble right now, the addition of the punchy hue's neighbors is an unexpectedly chic twist. A scarlet blouse on like-minded denim gets the pink 'n' orange treatment with Zara color-blocked sandals, and a hot pink clutch. So wrong it's right!
All she's missing...is an orange flower in her hair.
Scene KiMELEON
Shindigs, babies, Coachella and mo! Friends of KiMELEON have been rocking their headwear from L.A. to NY... be still my beating heart!

To Have & To Hold
If Meredith Wendell's SS11 campaign alone doesn't give you goosies, the 3-year-old accessories brand's bags should!
Two more winners from the current collection...
Color Blockage: Bucket leather and canvas bag, $795
Weekender: Large leather-trimmed raffie duffel bag, $595
Wonderland
Who: Charlotte Free by Paul Schmidt
What: Jalouse June/July 2011
Why: If I could redesign the American flag, I'd replace the stars with flowers. Nothing beats peonies and stripes.
Ahoy!
How Popeye chic is an adorable sailor hat?
L'Officiel Latvia's May issue featured cover model Ieva Laguna wearing a perfectly structured version, then Alex Sander sported two separate sailor styles in Glamour Spain's June ish...
I've l'officielly found my summer sea legs.
Coming soon...mini sailor hats by KiMELEON?!?
Onepiece Wonder
Inspiration: Michaela Kocianova for Vogue Italia's June issue
There are few things more subtly sexy than a one-piece swimsuit. And with the addition of a waist belt (often sold separately)? I mean...bikini who?
But my fave thing about one-piece wonders? They also double as bodysuits, and these styles blow the competition outta the water!
1) Clube Bessa gradient onepiece, $325
2) 3.1 Phillip Lim halter onepiece with tassels, $275
3) Missoni onepiece, $400
4) Lanvin leopard-print onepiece, $1700
5) Fogal coral bathing suit with belt, $170
6) Zimmermann crochet-trimmed underwired onepiece, $345
7) L*Space stardust fringe onepiece in nude, $140
8) Zimmermann sapphire ruched corset onepiece, $386
9) Topshop scallop stripe onepiece, $60

Haute Tropic
Flavia de Oliveira's sun-soaked spread in the June issue of Elle Italia is hotter than Leo & Blake during Cannes!
Despite her wearing the same pair of raffia flatforms throughout her island romp, she works her vacay-inspired garb–and amazing hair-wear–to perfezione.
Getting Slitty Wit It
FGR
Is there anything hotter than a thigh-high slit in a pleated disco dress???
Don't think so.
Karmen Pedaru gives
