Razzle dazzle is hot, especially when we want to stand out. But don't we all have those days when we'd just rather go incognito? For those times, turn to Element's Fall '09 look book; it's filled with under-the-radar pieces that are cool but not flashy. Army jackets, asymmetrical cardigans, crochet sweaters, plaid dresses, denim vests, and slim jeans are some of the items du jour. Personally, one Read more

The fronts of my thighs got a Read more
Last night I convinced a good friend of mine to do a new DVD that I had to review with me. As it was called Element: Yoga for Beginners ($10.09) I knew she would give me some good feedback on what she thought about the DVD since she is a yoga newbie.

I've since shared the recipe with friends, whose significant others Read more
I was so pleased to stumble upon a great interview that Bob Vila conducted with designer Celerie Kemble. The long interview is full of great advice, and topics range from color to showhouses to kids' rooms, as well as Kemble's book Black and White (and a Bit in Between). Since so many people get stuck on the rules of decorating with color, I thought that this advice from the interview was Read more

Backstage at Rachel Zoe's Fall 2012 show, models sported a cool, downtown vibe with messy and sexy hair. Makeup was inspired by Kate Moss, Marianne Faithfull, and a little Mick Jagger — a high-drama look that begs to be seen on stage as well as the runway. Rachel herself was wearing one element of the look just days before the show. Watch now to see what made Rachel hand-select a key part of Read more
Taylor Swift stepped outside of her red-carpet style boundaries tonight in a jaw-dropping Zuhair Murad lace confection. The collared, capped-sleeve floor-length gown hugged her lithe frame elegantly; needless to say, the gilded silhouette did not hit a single dull note.

If you're planning on throwing an Oscar viewing party for Hollywood's big night on Feb. 26, then I suggest that you go big this year and give your event a theme. Take a cue from the nominees and let best picture nominee Midnight in Paris give you inspiration. It has plenty of elements that translate into an opulent party: Paris, the 1920s, and many of its own scenes of revelry. Here's how to use Read more
