Last August, when I purchased a muted paisley iPhone case I was shocked by how often I was told it would “transition nicely to fall.” I’d never before thought of my tech cover as a seasonal item, but now I do. So what better way to go into spring than Prada’s pop-of-color design? The bright leather flowers will take me well into the next season (if I can wait that long to break it out!). Find out where to get this case!

When Prabal Gurung’s collections walk the runway, people take notice! But it’s not just the pretty dresses and strong suiting that caught my eye at the designer’s spring show. Joining forces with an equally celeb-adored label Casadei, the fashion superstar sent his models out in some of the fiercest footwear of the season. Talk about drama: sheer materials like plexiglass and net were reinforced by bold bursts of scarlet leather. A few days ago at Fall Fashion Week, Gurung and Casadei presented another set of statement heels (this time, military-inspired gladiators), once again they’re on my list!

Last year, when Emma Stone stepped onto the Golden Globes red carpet in Lanvin, one thought ran through my mind: “I need that belt!” The eagle-embellished cincher was the definite standout on the actress’s two-tone column, but the design would have just as much impact with more casual ensembles. So when I spied the label’s latest wild thing, I fell in love all over again. The crystal-studded tiger buckle is just as fierce as Ms. Stone’s style and will arrive just in time for me to wear (sans gown) the evening of the 2013 Golden Globes! Get the scoop on Lanvin’s belt!

One of my constant New Year’s goals is to travel more. And like most resolutions, mine’s a promise that I never keep. In 2013, I plan to make a bigger effort to stick to my word and Diane von Furstenberg’s globe clutch will be a constant reminder for me to do so. I’ll tote the quirky beaded leather design with me wherever I go, whether it’s the other side of Manhattan or the opposite end of the map. And until I make it to far away destinations, I’ll know that the world is within my grasp!

Never ones to miss the opportunity to put on a show, Dolce & Gabbana’s runway was one of my spring Fashion Week highlights. Paying homage to the design duo’s native Sicily, organic fabrics like raffia and bent cane juxtaposed bright and textural embellishments. Though some of the numbers were meant to stay on the runway, the label’s sparkly flats adapt the mix for the real world. Like the flashiest catwalk numbers, I too will put on a show when I walk by in these designs.

I love a good mystery—and by that I don’t mean literary whodunits! This topper is a definite head-scratcher: Is it a coat? Is it a cape? Is it a dress? Elementary my dears, Dolce & Gabbana’s wool design is all three. Depending on my weapon of choice, be it a belt or decorative blouse (as was shown on the runway), I’d be in possession of a coat, cape or ultra-chic evening option. Case closed! Shop Dolce & Gabbana’s Topper!

The most intense moments of theater are right before the curtain rises. Seems nobody knows that better than Brian Atwood. The master of dramatic footwear always puts on a show, but his swingy black and gold peep-toes seem particularly poised to gather an audience. I’ll take center stage in these heels no matter how crowded the room, because all eyes will be waiting for these curtains to move.

For me, the biggest surprise of last week’s Emmys didn’t happen onstage. More shocking than Tracy Morgan passing out, or Mad Men’s unexpected shutout was how radiant Lucy Liu looked in her flawlessly contoured column. Since my plans don’t include walking the red carpet, I’d swap her style for Versace’s shorter number. My chainmail and satin dress may only be a fraction of her gown’s length, but this heavy metal mini would capture all of her glamour. Find out how to get Lucy Liu’s sparkle!

When planning an ensemble I pick the clothes first, then bags, shoes and jewelry and if it still feels lacking I’ll add a belt. But this belt is no afterthought. I would plan entire outfits around Fendi’s contoured stingray and patent leather waist cincher. Whether with complimentary black and gray (as shown on the runway) or used to colorblock effect, when picking out clothes, this belt will always come first! Find out where to buy this luxe accessory!

When it comes to true beauty, we’ve been told that it’s what on the inside that counts. Not so in the case of Valextra’s leather-trimmed makeup case. With its futuristic, textured design I doubt any of the shadows, glosses, palettes or stains hidden within could match this exterior’s eye-appeal. See which color’s our favorite!
