A Little Bit Country
Paris Fashion Week saw a dose of the hinterland this week, with the Chanel show turning its venue into a veritable barnyard of couture: bales of hay, an oversized barn and models sporting wheat-mussed-hair abounded. As for the clothes, oatmeal, ivory and black with touches of red ruled the runway, with sky-high clogs tying all of the looks together in the end. What fun!

Green With Envy
Swathed in green tweed, the models at Chanel's Fall 2009 show ushered in this season's must-have color: jade. For most of us, Chanel suits, no matter how fabulous, are out of budget. Luckily, the design house has made the coveted color more accessible, with its newly introduced Jade nail polish.
The hue graced the manicured hands of many a fashionista (from Rachel Bilson to Drew Barrymore) at New York Fashion Week, a color I'm sure we'll see plenty of throughout the fall/winter seasons.
