Ok, so my sexy husband -M.B.- is the target of my style inspiration for Fall 2009 Essentials. Here is what a Hollywood Husband should slap into their wardrobe mix this fall.
1. Butter-soft leather jacket.
Something sexy, sleek and supple. Black is always rock n' roll and will always be a staple in your closet, gentlemen.

One of my personal style icons, and that of many others, Kate Moss-has kept her name abuzz in the the cool scenester parade of music by providing vocals for the very hip Lemonheads newest track, 'Dirty Robot'. She is bitchy and quite coquette in this electro-mess of a track. I think I like it.…

Nico, of the Velvet Underground
Before I begin, I must note that a new member to LIKELOLA.COM, Miss Beth, inspired me to post this quick little blog... She listed her style icons as 'doe-eyed brunettes from the 60's'- which I thought was fabulous! So upon playing with…

Lola fans, take note; the apple of Marc Jacob's new eye is his very own Lola. His newest fragrance to follow 'Daisy' is an 'electrifying, over the top bouquet, exploding from the bottle'. It's sensuous and very feminine and something that
this Lola must have.

Vegas it seems is not just a hot spot for late nights of debauchery and entertainment of
all types... Shopping and Spa'ing is something that woman have gotten very used to. But amongst all the retail chains and designer luxury boutiques from everywhere from the Wynn hotel to Ceaser's Palace, a little gem of a store popped out at me: 'Annie Creamcheese'
Annie Creamcheese is anything but cheesey. It's a hot little boutique located in The
Shoppes at the Palazzo, and is stock full of de…

After several seasons of obsessing over Bastard Pinks (
remember the blog? read it again here) I have found a sister color that plays nice with the pinks, grays and other muted pastels that are amazing for Spring/Summer.

On the beat and on the street, here are some choice style pics I snapped up to show you the eclectic and chic range of stylish LA urbanites.
French Sophistication and Ease...
I love the simplicity of the crisp white and blue stripe button up shirt (with collar popped no doubt) and easy white trouser (a must for the season). I don't even care that she's wearing her post-pedicure flip-flops- she is so chic with her bare face and slicked back hair!

Bra Tops were styled as base layer pieces under blazers to complete coordinating looks for SS09. This is 'new' trend stems from avant garde originator Jean Paul Gaultier in the '90s with his many version of the cone-bra for Madonna... And he no doubt was dually inspired by the pin-up models in the '50s...Yet these newer versions are softer, and easier to wear, especially when coordinated in matching 'suit' fabric that completes the outfit and feels less lingerie. Dare to bare this summer.…

Longchamp displays wit and a clever dose of humor with their new tote of the season that is hotter than hot! Translation of Ceci est un It Bag: This is an It Bag. Smug! I am all over it, for the ridiculousness of the statement and fun that it pokes at the fashion industry and fashionistas obsessions with seasonal It Bags. It also comes in red, which is the one I want!
