the it lists – fashion & trend blog

Lately when it comes to the blues – denim that is – Paige or William Rast have been covering me. But my next spring pair of jeans…

To celebrate it’s 20 Birthday, DKNY has paired with Levis. Donna Karan’s creation of DKNY started with her quest for the perfect pair of jeans, so it’s only fitting to celebrate two decades later with where denim fashion started (Levis!).

Three silhouettes: Levi’s for DKNY 501 Boyfriend Jeans (the latest trendy look), the wide leg, and the skinny. And they all come in a range of washes from inky Rivington, indigo Schiller to black or white.

Finally she has her own line! I’ve spent hours staying tuned to style watch checking out the next big Rachel Bilson outfit, now I can just head to a store!

Thanks to DKNY Rachel doesn’t have to draw out her dream – she just had to show up with the ideas and a name to fit. Bilson’s trademark line for DKNY Jeans is Edie Rose which is after her grandmother Edie and a close family friend Rose. A simple name for a simple line with some simple tricks of the trade as listed by Bilson in her InStyle interview, this month.

Bilson seems to think her style to success secrets is based on these 3 principles:
1) Pick your basics and your base colors (hers are black and white and grey)
2) Create your signature style my mixing vintage, luxe, and cheap!
3) Add a bright color to your basics or accessorize like crazy.

Easy tips to look great everyday.  We’ll listen to the girl who chicly wore a Chanel dress backwards at the P.S. Arts benefit (Sept 2007). A fashion risk that paid off!  ~ Nicole, guest "it" writer.
