Fashion trend: Utility Jacket
Q- I have heard of the Utility Jacket trend. How would I wear it, where do I buy it?
Jennifer G – Decatur GA
A – What is the utility jacket? It’s basically for “roughing out outdoors”. The cut is usually boxy and loose-fitting—you’d need to be able to move around in this jacket. (Hence the name.) Fashion’s take is primarily military-inspired (If you’ve had a close look at the Spring 2010 runway looks, you would have noticed that military was a big trend), in khaki, olive, or neutral colors—and some with buckles, and zips, and even epaulettes.
Taking their cue from what could only be described as “street chic,” designers jazzed up the very “practical” utility jacket into one chic piece—one you can wear with jeans and cropped shorts or over a dress. I personally love it with floral dresses and cool sneakers—the look creates the perfect juxtaposition of pretty and grunge.
The style and cut you choose will really all depend on the look you’re …

Printed Matter
Here’s one big trend to look forward to (or not): clashing patterns and prints. No other style spells eclectic, fun, and absolutely carefree than the look of mixed patterns and prints that don’t naturally match. (Actually, not a lot of patterns or prints match, so anytime you do wear print over print, you’re bound to channel fashion eclecticism.)
It’s understandable why most people stay away from this look. It’s already difficult enough to mix and match colors, but to go ahead and break rules and mix clashing prints? In fashion, it’s almost always easier to follow the rules than to break them—but where’s the fun in that?
For those of you who are very new in the mixing-clashing-prints department, follow this simple rule: Stick to the same color family. This should assuage your fears a bit. Kirsten Stewart channels this look perfectly in her Proenza Schouler ensemble. Or you may also go for smaller prints.
However, for the fashion adventurous—and I applaud …

New year, new trends. What’s hot for 2010
I am excited about the trends for 2010 mainly because I still have a lot of this stuff in my closet from a few years back! These looks are all over fashion runways, online, and in fashion magazines.
1. Mixed prints - This includes any combination of, well, mixed prints! A striped shirt with a floral skirt, a floral dress with patterned tights, a striped dress with patterned vest… the combinations are endless. I suppose you could simply not match anything you wear and you are simply a trendsetter. The rules of fashion are interesting that way.
Marc Jacobs Runway 2010
2. The Wedge- I love Wedges and have never stopped wearing them. One of my favorite deals was a pair of Chanel wedges found on sale for 75% off. I am obsessed with these Jeffrey Campbell wedges and here is a more versatile budget friendly wedge option. For those who like to splurge -add these Burberry wedges to your collection.
3. Clogs – I’ve always embraced the clog as well. Have …
