Not Your Mother's Cape...

It's all about capes this fall season, and I'm in love. Such a stylish but easy way to stay warm and fashionable at the same time. Capes add a posh, Euro-chic look to your wardrobe and will definitely get you noticed. I'm obsessed...here are some of my favorites this fall. Now it's just figuring out how to get my hands on one of these lovelies!

Schooled In Style

I spent nine hours at Smashbox Studios this weekend with celebrity wardrobe stylist, Luke Storey, learning the what and what not to do's of making it in the fashion industry. What I learned in nine hours would've have taken years figuring out on my own. Luke created the School of Style which is the first and only school in Los Angeles specializing specifically in wardrobe styling. He literally teaches you everything from A to Z, but does it in an entertaining way...not to mention he's got a great sense of humor! Plan to laugh a lot while being told exactly how it is in the business...there's no sugar-coating.

Me with Luke...Still standing after 9 hours!

Storey has over ten years of experience and has styled for Kanye West, Marilyn Manson, and No Doubt among others. It was nine hours well spent and I highly recommend the School of Style to anyone interested in wardrobe styling in any capacity.

For more information about Luke visit his website, School of Style or his agency's, PhotoGenics.
