What’s your dream wardrobe like? Well, if you’ve ever wondered what essential pieces Rachel Bilson counts on, then look no further than Edie Rose. Bilson’s new line for DKNY encompasses all of the “must-have” pieces that you need. In fact, it’s kind of fool-proof…all of the pieces in her collection fit seamlessly into any wardrobe so that you can create a variety of ensembles.

Some of my favorite looks from this collection are the denim pencil dress and the tuxedo jacket. Yellow is a big theme in this collection, which seems a little late to me considering yellow was so big in the spring time. Red patent accents and dark denim are also staples, creating a look that is one part American girl-next-door and one part fashionista chic.

You can try to purchase some of these items right now at DKNY but unfortch most everything is selling out. Also, if you can’t squeeze into juniors sizing, then this collection isn’t for you. I have a feeling that we will be seing this collection at Macy’s in the near future (note the Macy’s ads behind Bilson above) so you may not have to scour eBay and pay twice as much for her wares as they are worth after all.

If there is one thing that you can take away from Bilson’s collection, then it is that everyone needs a few structured pieces in their wardrobe. A great shift dress, white button down and skinny jean is a must for every woman of every age. While there is nothing ground breaking about this collection (gee, another young actress turned designer?), at least it isn’t a collection entirely of overpriced leggings. Hooray for Hollywood!

Victoria Beckham

Husband David Beckham may be her best accessory at the N.Y.C. launch of the couple’s new fragrance duo – but those gravity-defying heelless boots come in a close second! The star keeps the look from going over-the-top by pairing the super-shiny footwear with a chic gray Antonio Berardi wool minidress.

Celebs Beyonce and Fergie think pink (source)

Couture in the City reader Shara asks:

Q:  Will hot pink lips be trendy for spring/summer of 2009?

A: Hmmm…that’s a tough one Shara. Hot pink lips were trendy in the spring of ‘07, and are making huge waves now (Rihanna is always softening her edgy look with hot pink lips), so it’s hard to say. If you are itching to try a hot pink trend, I would do it now, at the tail end of summer and before winter sets in. Check out your local pharmacy and grab a few different hot pink shades to see what works best with your skin tone. You can work a hot pink lip right now in a very fierce way with a smoky eye and a sleek but chic ensemble.

My most favorite hot pink lip gloss is no longer available (the MAC Fafi edition…so perfectly punk), but you can still snap up some great pink shades from MAC. For a very high fashion look, go for a paler hot pink like Wonderstruck or Ensign from MAC:

MAC Lustreglass, $14.00

The lighter shades of hot pink that were seen on the runway are the perfect compliment to winter florals, grays and muted shades of plum and navy. For a softer fall hot pink look, keep the rest of your color palette muted and make your lips the focal point.

My makeup trend forecast for fall calls for peachy lip glosses (just call it a hunch) so enjoy your pink lips now!

Got an insider tip on your favorite hot pink lip glosses? Leave a comment and let us know which is your favorite and why (not sticky, long lasting, tastes like strawberries, whatever…). Happy glossing!
