Hope – One Shoulder Ruffle Dress (9.13.12)

Posted on by
Look: Hope - One Shoulder Ruffle Dress (9.13.12)
She’s trying. The girl is really trying to look happy, while standing up at her mom’s wedding. She changed into her wedding frock, which is a very feminine dress with the front & back ruffles, and the one shoulder ruffle detail. Ruffles strategically placed like these one can be a girls best friend…giving cover to any trouble spots in a pretty way, especially if you partake in a few glasses of bubbly and hors d’oeuvres at a wedding you are attending. Or…if you have a perfect Hope-like body then the ruffles just look pretty. Here is The Real Deal (albeit in what looks like a different shade of blue), and another version with even more ruffle.

Brooke – Wedding Gown (9.12.12)

Look: Brooke - Wedding Gown (9.12.12)
Yes I saw the other 5 wedding gowns, and this is my favorite. The back! Look at the back! (You’re going to have to click the item below because I only did the screen cap from the front). The gown is simple and elegant. We all know that Ridge is going to be leaving the show. At least we know that the last image he’ll have of Brooke is a beautiful one.

Brooke – Fuchsia Blouse (9.12.12)

Look: Brooke - Fuchsia Blouse (9.12.12)
This color is making the rounds on the Logan girls, and I’m not complaining. So this color is available it seems on the web only, but there is a very close color by same brand available in store (and on web) at Bloomingdales here. Also a similar and affordable version of the blouse listed below The Real Deal.

Steffy – Combat Boots (9.2.12)

Posted on by
Look: Steffy - Combat Boots (9.2.12)
I’ve had a lot of requests for these boots that Steffy is wearing, so I thought I’d better make a post. These lace up boots are more combat style (think Doc Martens) vs the classic ‘motorcycle’ boots you would normally see (square toe, buckles), but then again don’t we just love how Steffy goes against the norm anyhow? The boots she is wearing look like they may be from the JMW closet, but I’m not sure. These Tory Burch ones look pretty close to The Real Deal. Tory Burch? Let me tell you I would never have thought to look up ‘combat boots’ = ‘Tory Burch’, ever. But ‘me’ = ‘always right’, never. So here you go, plus a couple of similar versions including a fantastic Reader Find from our stylish reader Debbie. Thanks!

Steffy – Printed Pants (9.4.12)

Look: Steffy - Printed Pants (9.4.12)
Well Steffy didn’t exactly diffuse the situation with $Bill did she? That’s okay she’s wearing her rebellious outfit today. We first saw these pants worn by Steffy here back in January. They are from the Isabel Marant fall 2011 RTW collection, and sorry, no longer available. These aztec print leggings below were the closest I could find.

Steffy – Shoulder Detail Blazer (9.4.12)

Look: Steffy - Shoulder Detail Blazer (9.4.12)
I saw quite a few versions of this jacket either in the fall mags or in my sleep, I can’t remember which. In any case, what do you think of this type of shoulder detail? This puff shoulder has a kind of throwback whimsical edge to it, kind of like the ‘tude Steffy has right now. I think we are going to see some very classic throwback Steffy behavior soon. Here is a version of the jacket if you like it:

Katie – Fuchsia Long Sleeve Dress (9.4.12)

Posted on by
Look: Katie - Fuschia Long Sleeve Dress (9.4.12)
I love how Katie is throwing it all out there saying EXACTLY what she feels to $Bill, Steffy, Liam etc, etc, etc. And she’s throwing it all out their with her pregnancy wardrobe as well. It takes a brave soul to wear a dress like this, which pretty much describes Katie. Here is a similar dress if you would like the look yourself. I can’t quite tell if it’s The Real Deal, but pretty much the same idea.
