Bright on Style

Chanel Iman works a white jacket and bejeweled mini skirt at the spring/summer 2010 Versace show at Milan Fashion Week. Turquoise accessories match up right on key with Iman’s look. Duplicate this style with a pop of glossy “Tiffany’s blue”(like the Chanel 527 polish) on your nails.

Neutral Beauty

Known for clean designs and crisp, stylish basics, designer brand Calvin Klein offers a more toned down daytime look in the spring 2010 collection. This sexy one shoulder, neutral hued garment combines exquisite detail and comfort. Married with a taupe, “mushroomy” nail polish to match, you can flutter from the office to date night in a pinch.

Hot in Pink

This print pink and black Gucci creation from the brand’s spring 2010 collection adds a refreshing splash of color to beautiful brown skin (Taraji P. Henson wore the dress to an event hosted by gal pal, Mary J. Blige in NYC last week). Complement the dress’s luminous hues with a sassy hot pink polish perfect for a night out on the town.
