Update: The winner of the Lammar Trench Coat is Holla_itsBabs with the following comment:
Oh-la-la! Tres HOTT! Something a TV Director DIVA would wear in a freezing cold control room while directing a newscast next to her male counterparts-giving off an air of CONFIDENCE and STYLE, exuding POWER and QUIRK with ULTIMATE COOLNESS–Nevermind the 94 degree heat outside in sunny Tampa, Florida!(Faux Fur in all it’s GLORY included, of course!) HoLLa!!! WATCH OUT, BOYS!
Congratulations Holla_itsBabs and a big thank you to all of you who participated!
Celebrity fashion mavens like Hayden Panetierre and Charlize Theron know how to keep out the winter chill in style: the classic trench coat! And so can you - for free! Chicksdowntown.com is offering one lucky Fashiongrail reader a free BB Dakota Brown Tan Lammar Trench Coat. The classic trench gets an updated, urban attitude styled with a nod to the 1970’s. Crisp tailoring in a “go-with-everything” neutral, the trench is accented with multiple buckled sleeve straps and its own matching belt. The removeable shaggy faux fur collar adds the fittingly retro finish.
How to Play: Simply leave a comment on FashionGrail to the following question: Will you keep the faux fur on the trench or not? Why?
One winner will be randomly chosen. The contest will run from Monday, October 12 to Monday, October 19. U.S. residents only. Have fun and good luck!

Designer Spot Light : Isaac Mizrahi

Isaac Mizrahi helped re- vamp Liz Claiborne and we love him for the Isaac Mizrahi for Target Collection, which was just fabulous! {Photo Credits: Marco Madeira / Style.com}
Isaac’s spring 2010 collection at the New York Fashion Week was exciting- lots of ruffles and petals, short little numbers and those hats! As only Isaac would do it! The little square clutches, and box purses definitely made the show reminiscent of the early –mid 1900’s (think 40’s -60’s), the occasional umbrella gave me the feeling that we were heading for a picnic in the rain! Bold lips and the Blazers were a common theme and are bound to be the in trend this fashion year. Catch the show here.
Key notes of the fashion show: Menswear inspired shoes, Bold Lips, Lavender, the occasional fringe, and just a little sparkle.
I’m eagerly anticipating the release of his Ready to Wear Collection. Check out my ever growing Isaac Mizrahi wish list on Wishpot.

One of the Hottest Fashion Colors for Fall: Purple

The following is a guest post from the Wishpot Team: Fall is right around the corner. Stores have filled their shelves and tables with all the hot new colors. One of my favorite fall trends is purple! Look at all the fun fashion I added to my wish list.
Alice + Olivia ballerina bodysuit combines not only the color trend of purple but incorporates flowers, which is another hot trend for fall. You can dress it up with heels (left top; Vidaurri style), found on Aldoshoes.com or dress it down with a pair of flats.
No matter what the season handbags are always necessary. This Juicy Couture bag brings out the dark purple found in the dress. With the size you can fit all your essentials with room to spare.
What outfit is complete without a great necklace? The cut of the dress is perfect for a long necklace. Forever 21, a great place to find budget friendly accessories to fit any style you are wearing, I found this Amanda Charm necklace.
All of these items can be found on my wish list on wishpot.com.
