As seen in Lucky: Rebecca Taylor + Kain Label

Friday, November 13th, 2009

We love it when this happens!  We pair together some great designers for the website and then…. boom, the same look graces the cover of one of the hottest shopping magazines in the country.

We couldn’t have asked for a better “fashion nod”!

Carrie Underwood, an “it” girl not only in the music scene, but in the fashion scene, wears the Rebecca Taylor sequined jacket over a Kain Label tank for the Lucky December cover shoot. Thank you Lucky and thank you Carrie!

We’ve always loved the feminine fits and details of Rebecca Taylor and mixing her with the sexy, slouchy tee style of Kain Label just seemed like the perfect mix for a fresh, new take on dressing for the holidays.  Or for just a night out for drinks and a concert.  There are lots of those going on right now.

We have a fabulous new selection of Rebecca Taylor looks at shopchantal and in store at chantal.  In addition to the tank worn by Carrie, we have a huge mix of Kain Label pocket tees, v-necks, Long sleeved tees and the most recent addition to their line, a racer back tank.  The colors include heather grey, teal, black and white (of course) and the newest holiday color: Spicy Orange- trust us, it is super cool and really wearable.

Stop in and shop these and our other new designers, Monrow, Mike & Chris and BCBG.

Update Classic Styles and Create your own Sophisticated Look

Feminine Style

Though this season couldn’t be more edgy & dramatic, feminine styles are still big and can be paired with other girly styles to create the timeless & romantic look that we have all come to know and love.

We are loving the glamorous appeal of this look, along with the versatility of the pieces used to create it.  Elizabeth and James is a major player within this arena and has offered up some of our favorite flirty pieces that include jackets, skirts, & tee’s with just the perfect amount of high-style.  The best part about investing in pieces from their fall collection is they work beautifully paired back to all our other designer’s fall collections, and also so much you already have in your closet.

Shoshanna, another cult favorite when it comes to finding that girly & sophisticated look, has offered up some amazing styles that are not only warm, but feature some high style!  Her Shawl Collar Sweater Dress is a classic style that offers an abundant amount of versatility.  Wear it with leggings (or tights) & boots to create a cozy look or pair it with a blazer & scarf for a more polished appeal!

Or you may be looking for that perfect dress to wear to all your holiday parties that is going to give you longevity for the rest of the season?  Shoshanna’s Belted Peplum Dress is sure to impress even the girliest of girls!  We love the gold belt detail with the flirty ruffle at the hip, such a strong & feminine trend!  A statement necklace is all you’ll need to complete this look, and Pour La Victoire’s Blanche Heel wouldn’t hurt, either!

Other silhouettes & pieces we love for creating this look include:  Graham & Spencer’s Washed Silk Cami, Shoshanna’s Strapless Pleat Detail Dress, and Nanette Lepore’s Hollywood Dress.  All portray that true, lady-like persona with details and finishings that are timelessly stylish!

New styles for the season are pouring in everyday.  Pairing a classic style that makes you feel comfortable with an updated trend like a cropped blazer from Rebecca Taylor or moto jacket from Mike & Chris can make your look fresh and interesting. These styles just arrived this week at chantal. and will be on shopchantal.com next week.
