I D-I-E for Rachel Zoe

On August 24, I had the honor and privilege of attending an uber-exclusive Rachel Zoe fashion show at Neiman Marcus at the Topanga Mall hosted by Ken Downing, Fashion Director for Neiman Marcus. For those of you unfamiliar, Rachel Zoe is "THE" premier stylist to the stars! After dressing the likes of Anne Hathaway, Cameron Diaz, and Demi Moore (just to name a few), and having a successful reality show on the Bravo Network, Rachel Zoe is now stylist/reality star-turned fashion designer with her very own line, aptly named "Rachel Zoe."

With her debut Fall 2011 Collection, you can tell that Rachel Zoe was inspired by luxury, class and a chic 70s flair. Leaving no stone unturned --her line includes fabulous suits, maxi dresses, coats, tie-blouses, even handbags and shoes--Rachel Zoe has left me drooling. From the luxe gold buttons on her military inspired coat, to the versatility of her camel colored poncho, you can tell that Rachel Zoe truly designed each and every item.

While some may call her colors, "boring," I loved the monochromatic pallet and idea that I could pair her browns, blacks and whites with almost anything I already have in my closet. My favorite piece of the entire collection is her white sequined "Linda Cardigan" that can be dressed up with chic black slacks for a professional look, or dressed down with a maxi dress for the weekends.

Bottom Line: Rachel Zoe's new clothing line is B-A-N-A-N-A-S and I cannot wait to see what she unveils for Spring 2012! You can purchase her line at major retail stores like Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue or online at shopbop.com
