Valentino Coat, Chanel Bag and Jeans, Outside Valentino

This is the kind of high-low mix that stylists and editors love: a très chic (and expensive) Valentino coat and Chanel matriochka bag worn with a down-to-earth pair of ripped boyfriend jeans. Even if you can’t throw on your best Valentino and Chanel, you can take a cue from this girl: this fall’s shredded boyfriend jeans are best worn cuffed with heels, especially if you’re petite.

Joan Smalls at Alexander Wang

This was one of my favorite shirt-around-the-waist outfits spotted this past fashion week, on a super cute Joan Smalls after the Alexander Wang show. I think her patchwork plaid shirt is by Equipment.

Yasmin Sewell at Chloe

Such a cool hi-lo mix on fashion consultant Yasmin Sewell: a black polka dot tulle skirt worn over cropped jeans with an emerald green silk top.

Helena Bordon at Issey Miyake

Loved this look on Brazil’s Helena Bordon at yesterday’s Issey Miyake show. Mixing ripped jeans and a quirky athletic-inspired tee with a floral trench and heels is daring, but it all comes together beautifully. She said that the jeans got so ripped that she had to safety pin them, but guess what? Ripped, safety-pinned jeans are definitely in fashion.

Karlie Kloss at Donna Karan FW2011

More Throwback Thursdays: Sometimes I look back at old photos and realize I didn’t know what I had, like this photo of Karlie Kloss from Valentine’s Day in 2011. It was before she hit megastardom as a model, and though the bag is Dior, I love how she’s just in regular jeans and scuffed up boots.

Susie Lau at Theyskens’ Theory

Surprisingly chic right now: all denim from head to toe. At the Theyskens’ Theory show in New York, Susie Lau of Style Bubble mixed different shades of blue denim, all from ASOS, and finished the look with Prada shoes.

Candice Lake at Donna Karan

Photographer (and ex-model – can you tell?!) Candice Lake sported this great 3.1 Phillip Lim I [Heart] Nueva York tee to the Donna Karan show at NY Fashion Week. It’s especially cute paired with printed jeans and a red hat. The fur coat is Hockley London.

Ruby Aldridge in Vintage, Outside the Mercedes Benz Tents

Some fashion people play fast and loose with the term “vintage.” It doesn’t refer to a bag from two seasons ago, but rather the treasures you can find when hunting through racks and racks of old stuff, as at Antique Boutique on Broadway in the ’80s and ’90s, when vintage had its heyday. Model Ruby Aldridge continues the tradition with the vintage stuff she wears all the time, like these cool jeans and Western boots. The resulting look is truly original. Close-up of those boots, after the jump.

Jenna Lyons After the J. Crew Show

J. Crew’s Jenna Lyons wore a camel coat, tweed jacket, frayed jeans and J.Crew statement necklace to yesterday’s J. Crew show. Love her all-American style. Close-up of the shoes and bag, after the jump.

Jourdan Dunn, After Moschino

Such a chic look on model Jourdan Dunn after the Moschino show in Milan. Colorful denim is a key way to warm up winter staples like a black coat, and the wide brimmed hat is just great personal style.

Anya Ziourova at Derek Lam

One way to ward off the blues on a really cold day: a colorful fur coat, as seen on Anya Ziourova outside the Derek Lam show.

Kate Lanphear, Milan Fashion Week

When Kate Lanphear left Elle this December, it seemed like we’d lose out on a whole season of her great style during fashion week. But no! She has landed at T Magazine as Style Director and will be back on the scene this February. We’re looking forward to seeing more of her super cool looks like this one, a textured black leather jacket and her signature black shades outside the shows at Milan fashion week.

Vintage Sweatshirt, Outside Missoni

Love how this guest at the Missoni show combined a vintage Indianapolis sweatshirt with stilettos and a YSL clutch. Like many people in the fashion industry, she starts out with a comfortable, casual outfit then adds amazing accessories to make it chic.
