Coach summer 08' collection


Ah, yes. Coach. Our middle school supplier of leather handbags and adorable wristlets. We temporarily fell out of love with the brand once they began covering practically everything they created in cheesy logos, but all has been forgiven with their most recent collection.

Still churning out totes and satchels with big and bold "C's" on them, Coach has made a legitimate effort to make chic and classic leather goods for all those not wanting to appear as if they were walking advertisement for the brand.

Why aren't you wearing this? Over the Knee Argyle Socks


Although we're loving summer at the moment, our fashion-forward minds are already getting excited about cool weather and hot fall trends. After all, who doesn't love shopping now for items you can't wear for three more months?

It goes without saying that some of the styles we saw in the Sex and the City movie should come with a "Don't try this at home" warning, and when we first saw these over the knee argyle socks (available for $14 at PatriciaField.com) on Carrie, we thought they were a prime example. But something made us take another look. And another. And, all of a sudden, we kind of love them.

Why aren't you wearing this? Multicolored Beaded Coil Bracelet


As we've said a million times, the easiest way to wear a trend is to wear it as an accessory. You might not be completely comfortable wearing an entirely yellow outfit, but you might like a bright yellow purse. Or, if you're digging the safari trend but don't want to look like you just got back from one, the right belt or hat can give you the look you want without quite as much commitment.

Why aren't you wearing this? Reese Li 'Lexington' Diaper Bag


Well, if you don't have a baby, the answer to why you're not wearing this bag is pretty obvious. However, if you're a mom (or even if you're not, but you need to carry a lot of stuff around with you), take a look at your diaper bag. Does it have Winnie the Pooh or ABC blocks on it? Because, really, those designs are for your baby, not for you.

Why aren't you wearing this? Yummi Glass Pansy Necklace


Some of the best accessories in the world are based on elements of nature. And, especially in the summer, we're rather partial to floral accessories, especially when they have a bold, funky edge to them.

Portero's spectacular Chanel auction


In case you haven't heard, Portero.com -- an online luxury auction -- has just launched its massive vintage Chanel handbag extravaganza.

There are over 200 vintage and quilted bags up for grabs to the highest bidder, of course. While Chanel has absolutely nothing to do with the sale, all of the handbags have been gathered from private collectors and authenticated. So, if you've ever been deceived by an Ebay seller, relax. This isn't that kind of operation, darling.

Why aren't you wearing this? L.A.M.B. 'Signature - Mandeville Small' Satchel


One of the things we love about being a girl is that we can be sweet and girly one minute, a vamp the next, and tough and sporty after that. And sometimes, if we find just the right outfit, we can be all of those things at once.

Why aren't you wearing this? Skinny sparkle-metallic leather belt


There are belts you keep in your closet that you wear to hold your pants up, and then there are belts you keep in your closet to complete an outfit. Both serve equally important purposes -- some even can do both -- but one is far more fun to shop for.

Why aren't you wearing this? Emerald Brooch


You know that tank top or tee that's in your closet -- the one that's a pretty color, but just kind of plain? You probably try to liven it up with necklaces or by layering it with other tops, and that's great. However, don't underestimate the power of a really pretty brooch.

On a tank, if the straps are the right width, you can scrunch up one side and close the brooch around it to give your neckline a bit of an asymmetrical feel. Or, if you have a V neck tee, place the brooch at the bottom of the V to add some punch.

Why aren't you wearing this? Lucky Brand Poppy Fields Patchwork Satchel


We don't know about you, but on some days we wake up feeling high fashion -- we've got poise and style and want to run around town in heels and look unapproachably gorgeous. On other days, we wake up feeling a little less au currant, but that doesn't mean we plan to schlep around in sweats and carry a backpack for a purse -- not a chance!

Why aren't you wearing this? Textured Ribbon Headband


We've shown you a few headbands throughout the "Why aren't you wearing this?" series, and often, they cost a pretty penny. And if you love it, and you have the cash, there's no reason not to spend $50 on a headband. However, if you're short on cash but still want the look, there are plenty of options.

One place that's great to shop for cheap little accessories that you'll only wear a few times is Forever 21, which is where we found this Textured Ribbon Headband for ... wait for it ... only $2.80! Seriously! And it's cute!

Lauren Conrad, now making over-priced accessories


Much like teen internet sensation Cory Kennedy and Manchester supermodel Agyness Deyn, you can't knock the hustle of Lauren Conrad.

Love them or hate them, these women have drive.

While she lacks any type of design ability and always presents herself as a spoiled self-entitled brat on her show The Hils, Lauren must be commended on her entrepreneurial skills.

Yes WSJ, Michelle Obama *is* our new fashion darling


The Wall Street Journal finally discovered our fashion crush on Michelle Obama. And clearly we have plenty of company. Following her appearance on The View (another secret love) women across the nation are flocking to White House/Black Market to buy the $148 dress Michelle wore on the show.

Like us, we're sure Michelle prefers to have her assets listed in this order: smart, funny and pretty. And that's how we'd describe her. She's wicked smart, and successful, and we can totally imagine being office buddies with her.

Why aren't you wearing this? Tanya Moss Sterling Silver Bracelet


You know what we love about wearing jewelry? You know, besides the fact that it's pretty? We love that it's flexible. A super sparkly necklace, retro, dangly earrings, and an edgy, chunky bracelet can all make a statement, and you can change up your entire look just by adding those items.

Why aren't you wearing this? Hanalei Day Tote


Have you ever fallen in love with a bag? It doesn't have to be an It Bag to be worthy of your admiration -- sometimes you just come across a handbag that encapsulates your personal style (or, at least, what you perceive to be your personal style that day). And that's when you know you have to have it.
