Reese Witherspoon looks gorgeous in this clean, on-trend ensemble of a scoop neck white knit top, Paige Denim Verdugo Jeggings in Scarlet, and retro-chic Jimmy Choo Rouge sunglasses. A simple combo of a white top and pop-color jeans is the first step to building a great, minimal look that still looks luxe. And take a hint from Reese’s choice of accessory! On her arm was a status symbol if we ever saw one: a Chloé Paraty python and leather bag.

Whether you’re into it or not (we certainly are) snakeskin is all the rage for fall! From Prada to Chloé, many fashion houses used it as a focal point in their collections, and from what we gather, when it comes to styling more is definitely more. However, we know that not everyone is comfortable sporting straight off the runway looks so we’ve put together two very distinct ways to rock this trend on the streets without looking like you’re trying too hard. Whether soft and earthy or tough and hard there’s definitely a way to wear snakeskin for everyone this season. Which will you wear?
1. Sass & Bide snakeskin print cotton jersey t-shirt ($190) – buy it at Net-A-Porter.
2. Burberry London cotton gabardine trench coat ($1,195) — buy it at Net-A-Porter.
3. J Brand medium wash 70s wide leg jeans ($218) — buy them at American Rag.
4. Luichiny Buckle-Up wedge ($90) — buy them at heels.com.
1. Super Trash Predito Snake Trousers ($185) — buy them at We Like Fashion.
2. T By Alexander Wang classic jersey t-shirt ($76) — buy it at Net-A-Porter.
3. Burberry Prorsum square-toe leather wedges ($950) — but it at Net-A-Porter.
4. Textile Elizabeth And James Alex checked parka ($375) — buy it at Net-A-Porter.

Spending a day with mom might be a reason not to have to dress to impress but that was not the case with Rachel Bilson. She was seen wearing one of our favorite denim brands (we never said we were impartial)- Siwy Denim Camilla Cut Off Shorts. She paired her jean shorts with a Chloe Elvire leather tote bag, Chloe flat ankle boot, and Ray-Ban Cats 1000 sunglasses. Besides for the great duds we are enjoying her lean legs (which we now know how to achieve them, juices!)

LeAnn Rimes was seen leaving a salon running her hands through her newly-done hair; Looking full of pomp and circumstance after all the recent gossip of being “too skinny”. In our opinion, she looks awesome. She was wearing a Raquel Allegra Raglan Top, Ray-Ban Original Wayfarer Sunglasses, Fendi Peep Toe T Strap Clog, Rag & Bone skinny jeans, Chlo? blush Blazer, and a Chanel Crochet Bag With Leather Fringe. The hint of color paired with the washed out jeans is the perfect hint of summer freshness. We are loving the ultra-high zippers along the outer leg of the jeans (unzipped to reveal a bit of ankle).

Edun, the 100% organic, sustainable and ethically conscious fashion label founded by Ali Hewson (wife of Bono of rock band U2) is relaunching their website featuring products that benefit communities in Africa, including school children in Kenya.
Available are t-shirts with hand-drawn pictures from the children of Kibera, Kenya. 100% of the proceeds from these t-shirts will go to fund school needs such as food, healthcare and financial assistance.
Black and white graphic tees are part of “Grow To Sew”, an initiative by Edun, which apire to make African garments a sustainable industry. The proceeds will benefit the Conservation Cotton Initiative, which supports greater investment in sustainable and ethical production, fair trade and organic farming.
Hewson held a launch party for Edun’s pre-fall menswear capsule collection at Bloomingdale’s in NewYork last Wednesday. And for the women’s collection, continuing with the trend of patchwork jeans (also found on the runways of Chloe, Cheap Monday, Gap, Ralph Lauren, to name a few) and military styles, the pre-fall collection of Edun includes military-green jackets, adorable hemp short-suits, indigo-colored patchwork jeans, super soft tees, lightweight anoraks, and ruffled skirts. Edun will relaunch women’s at Barneys New York this week, and at Liberty of London and Merci in Paris later this month. And the company’s new designer, Sharon Wauchob, will debut her designs for Edun on the runways of New York in September.

GAP Real Straight Patch Jeans.
CHLOE Spring Summer 2010 Patch Denim.
For those of you who remember my recent post about Chloe’s patchwork denim looks in their Spring Summer 2010 collection, Gap is offering up their version of the big patched jeans for only $24.99. Which one would you choose? The Chloe, or the one that’s on sale from The Gap?

I love most things Chloe, but not all things Chloe. I generally leave an open mind about fashion, but I’m not too crazy about the latest denim looks from Chloe’s Spring/Summer 2010 Collection. The patchwork denim ensemble — not phrases we like to repeat here at Denim Therapy — seen at left, looks great on the model, err, the model makes the ensemble look great. Kudos goes to Erica Domesek for her D.I.Y effort. I am inspired to create my own runway-inspired looks now, if only to rid my mind from the images of hobos drying their laundry on clotheslines by the railroad tracks.

The WhoWhatWear.com team??”as well as the fashion community at large??”is invariably obsessed with everything Hannah MacGibbon creates for Chloe. With collections that are sophisticated, cheeky, and tomboyish yet girly, it’s no wonder that this French label is always at the top of our list. This season, we were all about MacGibbon’s deftly designed neutral necessities, but there was one look in particular that had us all aflutter: the vintage-looking patchwork denim shirt and jeans that came sauntering down the S/S 10 runway. Maybe we’re just suffering from a bad case of eighties-redux fatigue, but there was something so refreshingly new, yet sweetly nostalgic, about this fashion-forward Texas Tuxedo denim duo, it was the natural pick for our next Do It Yourself story!
After the runaway success of our first D.I.Y. story, which focused on the divine Proenza Schouler S/S 10 collection, we knew that we had to bring this idea to our partner-in-craft: Erica Domesek of P.S. I Made This! After all, the actual Chloe Patchwork Jeans ($565, 212.717.8220) and Two-Tone Shirt (which will be in stores shortly) are genius, but you can easily approximate the results with just a few simple “ingredients” and a little elbow grease… Click here to read more.

Anja Rubik for Gap. Photo taken in San Francisco. Click for Source.
What? Is Gap condoning a matchy-match jeans and denim jacket pairing? Not exactly. The jacket is a darker rinse, but no matter. Anja Rubik makes it look good as any model only could.
Who is she, you may ask? She’s been one of the numerous pretty faces that have graced the covers of V Magazine (following in Gisele Bundchen’s footsteps) and Vogue Deutsch, Nippon and Paris editions, among others; and, with legs that seem to go on for miles, has struck a fierce pose for Chloe, DSquared2 Shoes, Giuseppe Zanotti, Gucci, and many more.
She's got legs, and she knows how to use them.
Rubik is certainly not a nobody in the world of modelling. Even though Rubik’s career has not been centrally-focused on denim campaigns, this feature with Gap Premium Jeans could possibly position her for Supermodeldom. After all, designer and premium jeans have been the darling of the retail establishment and a huge draw among the desired consumer demographic set.
