LSPR Staff Style Tips: January

Happy New Year!  We at LSPR want to help you make 2011 your most fashionable year yet, so we will be sharing our favorite style tips every month.  We hope you enjoy and possibly even try a few out yourself.   

As fashion publicists, we're constantly tracking what celebrities are wearing and often find inspiration in their red carpet looks.  Following are a few trends borrowed from the style stars we love that you might see us sporting this month.


A gray bag is a chic alternative to black – Whitney Port in Lauren Merkin
This year, I'm trying to change up my all black wardrobe by incorporating my new favorite color...gray!  Color purists may scoff at my use of the word "color" as opposed to "shade," but whatever you want to call it, the hue is effortlessly wearable and makes a great alternative to classic noir.  Try changing up your basic black bag for a gray one as Whitney Port has done here on New Year's Eve with her Lauren Merkin "Iris" clutch

Nude and lace is the new mix for spring evening -- Amanda Seyfried in Valentino
Amanda Seyfried accessorized her Valentino dress with a bodacious pair of heels.  Whether it's for a night on the town or an important event, you can class it up with this fierce combination.

Don't be afraid to whip out those winter whites -- Kirsten Dunst
Make a statement by breaking the "no white after labor day" rule by sporting a sexy white dress.  Too often people revert to gray and black hues (sorry LS!) during the colder months, but you can show them your adventurous side by wearing an unexpected and sophisticated ensemble.  Additionally, by wearing white, you instantly look tanner, which always is a major confidence booster and the easiest way to trick people into thinking you spent the holiday in St. Barths.

Jazz up a basic black look with statement jewels -- Mena Suvari in Flutter by Jill Golden
As you now know, my favorite wardrobe staples are most likely black.  In order to take the basic black look from blah to wow, I'll be piling on statement-making jewelry like Mena Suvari did at the premiere of NBC's The Cape.  You can barely see them in this photo, but in addition to the awesome Flutter necklace, Mena is wearing Flutter's crave-inducing "Albert" spiked stud earrings.  At under $200, they're a total must-have!  InStyle.com thinks so as well - check out their feature here.
