Circling Back Around: Backpacks Are Back!

It took me a bit of time to warm up to backpacks.  Unfortunately they are a reminder of my least fashionable decade (the 90's), but I've been a little nostalgic for that back-to-school excitement.  I've grown particularly fond of the bright cobalt blue Pierre Hardy backpack, the washed leather Nylo style and, of course the to-die-for alligator model from The Row.  Here are those and other stylish options I've come across:

Keep in mind that, just like handbags, you should choose a style proportionate to your body size and shape.  And please, no grown woman should turn up at work sporting a Hello Kitty backpack (or any other cartoon theme)... keep it age appropritate!

Fall for Pink this Season

Love the unexpected use of pink in Jil Sander's Fall 2012 collection!
Carry over some of your summer bright and pastel pinks into early fall, pairing them with basic shades such as stone, camel and taupe.

Featured Item: Golden Christian Dior Bustier

 Because I love everything about it!


This gorgeous Christian Dior bustier is exquisitely fashioned from golden yellow floral silk jacquard fabric with a smocked tulle overlay.  U.S. size 6 (as labeled) but seems to run smaller.  (Straps are removable).  See listing for more information and fit detail.

Well Collared

It's no secret that style-watchers are focusing in on collars.  It's a trend that's relatively easy to pull off. There are tons of options out there: the removable collar, the collar necklace and (please, don't laugh) the dickey.  For those of you who do not know, the dickey is basically a collar that is attached to a "bib" and gives the illusion you are wearing a shirt.  Dickies can change the look of a sweater or shell without any bulk or pesky bunching and twisting.  They are especially handy to a Texan (like myself) who appreciates the layered look, but rarely sees the opportunity, what with the heat soaring well through fall!

Here are a few Style Therapy favorites:

Ollegoria on Etsy features some beautiful handmade collars for sale.  Or, if you prefer a little DIY collar project, here are a few I have stumbled upon:

Color Studies: Scarlett Johansson

I pinned this photo from Scarlett's Moet Chandon ad months ago and I keep going back to it.  I love the colors, and would recreate it if I knew how!

Stylishly Superstitious: The Evil Eye

Stylish or superstitious?  Maybe a little of both?  Historically, these talismans were worn to ward off the evil eye curse...basically turning or bending a malicious gaze back to its bestower.  I wear my Jennifer Miller evil eye bracelet every day (#6) and even though I don't consider myself all that superstitious, a little added protection never hurt anyone!  Accessory and jewelry designers are putting their own spin on the evil eye, here are some of Style Therapy's favorites:

Try The Trend: Fit & Flare

Spring's fit-and-flare trend is still going strong this fall!  Nipped waists and fuller skirts really show off the waistline.  Keep it slim and simple on top to balance out your figure!

Finding Fashion on eBay

Finding great fashion on eBay can be overwhelming.  As the owner of a Style Therapy luxury fashion consignment store, I do a lot of research on the site and occasionally run across some great sellers.  I feel obliged to pass along some of these names to you!  There are plenty more where these came from, just be sure to check their feedback, as these ratings are still the best way to avoid trouble!

Favorite eBay fashion picks (in no particular order):

Of course, you're always welcome to visit me, too!  Happy shopping!
