Brooke – Camel Sweater (11.5.12)

Look: Brooke - Camel Sweater (11.5.12)
Brooke and Bill strolling the streets of Aspen. This is kind of freaking me out. I’ll get beyond that and focus on Brooke’s cozy, window shopping kind of outfit. Monochromatic works on Brooke proving that same tones can work and look great. Just don’t do same tone denim and sport the Canadian tuxedo (as it is called). For the record I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Canadian in said tuxedo. Here is a couple of affordable versions on her sweater to get the look. What is that splotch on here arm? Did anyone else notice? Must have been raining or I don’t know…I’m sure you all have some creative & funny ideas.

Look: Steffy - Leather Jacket & Striped Maxi Skirt (10.30.12)
Is it a Hawaii outfit, or is it an Aspen outfit, or is it both? Girl comes prepared for anything! A long maxi with an easy tank, and a K/LLER necklace and you have a laid back but cool Hawaii travel look. But a cool chick always has her leather jacket on standby. Hello Aspen. Hello drama. What a strange 4-some. Here are the items to get Steffy’s look:

Taylor – Blouse & Long Cardigan (10.25.12)

Look: Taylor - Blouse & Long Cardigan (10.25.12)
I was hoping to get a Taylor post up yesterday in honor of the Stephanie/ Taylor scenes, but I had a difficult time finding Taylor’s blouse and sweater. And I’m pretty sure the reason why is that these two items are from past seasons from Tory Burch. I can tell from the logo buttons on the cardigan that it is Tory Burch, and I’m 95% certain the print on the blouse is also from the same designer. But sometimes…like in our own closets, we wear things from (gasp) a year or so ago. Frankly I would be doing cartwheels down the street if I could wear some jeans from 5 years ago. In any case, Taylor looking beautiful (even when she’s crying too) with her classic, elegant style. To get her look here are a few things that are on the market:

Steffy – Gray Fitted Dress (10.24.12)

Look: Steffy - Gray Fitted Dress (10.24.12)
Steffy makes a fitted dress look so easy to wear. Hey it’s no big deal, just need a perfect body and just add a fitted dress. Or great shapewear. Anyone try Heather RHONY’s Yummie Tummie brand? Digressing. Actually no I really do want to know about Yummie Tummie. Back to the outfit; perfect styling with the booties, the pink clutch, and I would have predicted a drop earring, but then I am surprised with a lariat necklace. In a good way. I’m heading back to the gym.

Caroline – Pleated Mini Skirt (10.22.12)

Look: Caroline - Pleated Mini Skirt (10.22.12)
This skirt is nature inspired with a bird print, so you know I insta-gravitate. Birds were very spring 2012, but I like how this lightweight pleated mini is paired with a heavier black top which makes it a more transitional fall type outfit (albeit the top is light with lace and pin tucks…still more top heavy styling). No luck with The Real Deal, but here are a few similar.

Brooke – Silk Tunic (10.22.12)

Look: Brooke - Silk Tunic (10.22.12)
Did you ever notice, that Brooke is a beautiful crier? Something I’m envious of, since I’m a distorted, red faced, get really ugly crier when I cry. I just had to throw that in there since there have been so many tears lately (including my own watching these Stephanie scenes). Anyhow, great blouse, love the color, and I love the relaxed leather/chain belt styling on her.
