Liam – Black Cardigan (3.8)

This is a great look for Brooke, she looks gorgeous. She has it tucked into some fitted pants, but it would also work un-tucked with the nice rounded hem. The dolman sleeves and loose fit are flattering for all body types, but the V neck adds a pretty touch of extra femininity. Beautifully made with the horizontal stitching on the back. You could wear any statement necklace, delicate necklace or a long necklace like Brooke is wearing here. Here is the Real Deal and some Real World versions:

This silver arc necklace is just enough to work with the off the shoulder asymmetry of Steffy’s top. The solid arc is a little broader than most arc necklaces you see with a pretty chain covering the other two-thirds of this necklace, complete with Tiffany’s style toggle clasp. Where is the ‘Real Deal’??? Still working on finding the original, here are some options in the meantime:
Update 3.9. The necklace is by Helmut Lang and available through their LA store. Click for Helmut Lang Store listing

Steffy wore this top 2 of 3 ways that we saw these past few episodes. She wore one shoulder off, full sleeves down, then both shoulders down and sleeves scrunched up. It is tunic length so almost mistaken as a dress given she was wearing black on black. I love the simple black on black though, it was a great sleek look. The chunky shoes and simple but edgy jewelry perfect the look (The third way of wearing this top is not wearing it off the shoulder at all, obviously)

Remember this great outfit from the MRI appointment day? The leather jacket is a short boxy style with a snap collar. It has quilted shoulders with epaulets, zip front, and slant front exposed zipper pockets. Here are some similar versions:

Steffy was faced with another unpleasant announcement today, but at least she is wearing her fighting gear in the form of a spike bracelet. Nice job taking old school punk into modern edgy, without being overpowering. The Real Deal and Real World versions:

I think it’s only right that we post Jackie’s final outfit. From what I have ‘heard’ this was her last episode? Love her or hate her she brought a little sass to the screen, and always with some colorful attire, and very British mod. Here she is in a lollipop pink band collar blouse by Diane Von Furstenberg. At least she’s going out in style. Here it is and a less expensive version:

Here’s the original in the dress version:
Brown silk satin, by DVF. Elegant. It is tough to wear silk satin unless you have on spanx for a good half of your body, but the draping of the dress is perfect to hide imperfections, and enhance the areas we gals usually want to enhance. Easy to wear day, night, cocktail, whatever. I wish Brookes up-do wasn’t a messy up-do, it’s distracting. I think a MadMen sleeker up-do would be a better fit with this look. In my opinion. She looks great no matter what.

However, the print of the dress is so fashion forward. Lots of large prints are out there for spring, including oversized blown up flower prints, and tie dye/ batik like large scale ethnic prints like this. The asymmetrical billowy one sleeve adds another pretty feminine element to the original. This would look great with a blazer or leather jacket on top. I love the tights with the dress on the model in the last image. So here they are, a couple of similar options, and affordable ones too:
