Some A-List Love from one of our readers..."Hi Allie, I wanted to tell you that I had to speak at a (huge technology conference) for 3.5 thousand folks last week and I felt super great in that white jacket you recommended. You have saved my life with your clothes recommendations and I've brought half of it with me here to the conference." (A-Lister, Angela B.)

Elevate Your Closet Favorites for Fall

In a recent post we featured two versatile dresses...

We're still obsessed - so we've added a couple of Rock-Star worthy extras to help take them into Fall.

Shop the look or take these #StyleIdeas and apply them to some of your wardrobe favorites.

For a night out or special occasion, pair your lace long-sleeve mini-dress with an over-the-knee boot. The block-heel makes sure it's just the right amount of sexy-not-racy (and it's easier to wear all night). Add a touching of daring with a creative evening bag and bold, designer ring.

Go from Desk-to-Dinner by adding a faux-leather jacket and a high-heel bootie. Many designers featured the 'Rockstar' trend for Fall. This double-wrap, studded bracelet and 'Marc Jacobs Star Tote' are perfect ways to try the trend - without being too 'trendy'.

Gotta Gucci bag in your closet that's seen better days... may have some rubbed spots on the canvas etc. Consider adding a few embroidered or sequin patches to spice it up! Maybe sprinkle a few on a bomber jacket (see below) - even your sneakers.

Fall Florals - The Designer's Top Runway Trend is Blooming

#HoldingOnToSummer

You don't have to let go of Summer just yet - as designers used blooms and flowers throughout much of their new collections.

Try the trend with a 'Must-Have' Bomber Jacket.

Pair a feminine, floral skirt with a tee or cardigan.

Bump up your neutral wardrobe staples with a floral scarf or even a blooming ball-cap.

Stylist Tip: Gala season is nearing! Standout from the LBD crowd with a floral cocktail dress or gown! You'll be a breath of fresh air among the sea of sameness.

Transition from Summer to Fall by wearing a longer sleeve but keeping the fabric light and feminine.

Add tights when it's cooler for stand-out stems.
