The best looks for fall
Want to look chic, street or sweet? This season, the choice is yours
And we’re not talking about the hyper-blond gal pals of Laguna Beach toting too much lip gloss. This girl’s an uptown socialite with retro Parisian panache who thinks layers of lip lacquer are way gauche. 
A dark and romantic spirit was prominent on the Fall ’06 runways. She’s feminine, she loves her powder puff and she lives to see darkness fall. 
Attention, all skater girls. Here’s how to look now: keep your kohl-rimmed peepers, but ditch the stringy hair and the cake foundation. Think sexy tresses and a sheer, luminous base. 
Don’t confuse grunge with gross. This sistah isn’t down in the dumps; she’s swathed in layers of cashmere and she’s hooked on a rosy visage and glimmering hair. No dreadlocks allowed. 
The power of bling is still guaranteed to get you looks but, this fall, wear it in small doses. Do the right thing and tone down hip-hop shimmer, focusing on sparkling eyes and fingertips only.
