Layering Fall Fashion

Photos: Tomas Espinoza Photography

Fall may not officially be here yet but it's not too early to plan for the season. Fall is my favorite time of year for fashion and personal style. I'm able to comfortably wear layers of clothing in Hotlanta without breaking a sweat.

While I'm not excessively layered here, I am in heavier fabrics - a no-can-do in the Summer. [Just] throw on a vest or v-neck sweater, in a bright color preferably, as the weather cools. Sport a handsome pair of boots like these cap toes from Asos and you'll be good to go!

Blazer, Jack Spade. Shirt & pocket square, Ralph Lauren. Jeans, Uniqlo.

JOAN RIVERS "Can we talk..."

Joan Rivers stood up from her seat in between tapings of Fashion Police during Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York and looked over at the crowd beneath her at Lincoln Center. She was taking in the moment. Both arms perched on the railing. I was looking up. Suddenly, our eyes locked. I was looking at her and she at me. Joan smiled, as did I and then she walked away. That's the closest I've come to meeting Joan Rivers. I've been a fan since the days she used to joke about being "so ugly at birth, her doctor slapped her mother." That's a long time ago. I'm a huge fan and will miss Joan Rivers tremendously. My heart goes out to her daughter Melissa, her family and E! News friends.

Gucci Suits

My Facebook newsfeed has been filled with images like this for the past week. Wtf?! I love it, but really, Gucci, talk about dangling a diamond in my face... No one cuts a suit better than Gucci. These suits are impeccable. The are classic and modern at the same time. I'll take them all, thanks! Check out the collection here!

This is how I like Jennifer Lawrence: In Couture!

Jennifer Lawrence has become one of my red carpet faves in recent years.  Every award season, she is one of the A-listers I'm most excited to see what fabulous frock she's wearing. Her hair, shoes, accessories are always styled to perfection.

This is how I like to see J-Law. 

Not naked.

She does Dior well. Dressed to the nines. Even when she tripped, running up to receive her Oscar, she did so with elegance and grace.

Perhaps I'm just a silly queen but at least I know right from wrong. I hope those bastard hackers are found and prosecuted as well as everyone who has shared the nude photos. The only advice I can give to other celebs [and for all of us too] is stop taking naked photos! In no way am I blaming the victim so don't misconstrue my words. But since our privacy is sadly comprised from time to time, let's not give those fuckers ammunition!

George Brescia: George B. Style

George Brescia is a powerhouse of fashion, style and now you can add author to the list. 

George captivated a standing room only audience yesterday with his intoxicating charm, wit and fashion wisdom. I was privileged to sit on the Eddie's Attic stage with him while he shared a wealth of style knowledge and a lifetime of experience. 

George was in Atlanta as a featured guest speaker at the Decatur Book Festival.

His book, which is flying off shelves, Change Your Clothes, Change Your Life ... because you can't go naked, takes a deeper, more personal approach to looking your best. Sure, George breaks down the "how to's" and the "what nots" but there is so much more than that in his book. Having a closet full of "Perfect 10's" begins with a mind set, a positive personal attitude and confidence. 

If diamonds are a girl's best friend, then George's book is her "fashion bible" and will teach her how to wear them. I strongly urge you to get a copy.( You can order yours on Amazon!)

Also, make sure and visit George's website: GeorgeBStyle.com and check out his web series Dress Up!
