Tapered pants, over-sized sweaters and cardigans, tailored jackets and coats. At the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, the Fall 2011 DKNY collection was all about showing clothes that were  actually ”ready to wear”.

You can depend on Donna Karen to shift us back to functionality and reality, in a time  when many designers are creating winter collections that could mirror those of spring/summer.

Because I really love the new DNKY Fall 2011 collection and was inspired to create a mood board with looks we can wear right away, either from items already in our closet, or from more accessible stores like Asos and Zara.

You know, take the look from the runway to the real-way.

Let’s Go!

I’m an accessory junkie, and I can never have too many earrings, bags, and necklaces and of course watches. I know I only have two hands, but honey, if you’re like me, you know that sometimes a basic watch just doesn’t always go with your outfit if you’re also wearing bracelets.

I’ve found a pretty watch that not only tells the time but also doubles as a playful hand accessory. It reminds me of the 80s, a bit, back to my Punky Brewster days! Oh, and they have them in more colors than orange. If you like statement pieces like me, you might like this Nixon watch.
