And the silver sequin vest is a yay for me.

So, i limit myself to pieces that are classic and will suit anything that's already in my wardrobe! These are only a few things that i want but you should check out the site www.barneys.com, you're bound to find a bargain!

Straight off the runway: Mischa Barton

Ms. Barton has certainly gone all out with the frocks and dresses in the past week. First she was seen sporting a Roberto Cavalli silk printed maxi dress, and then later on in a beautiful white Matthew Williamson ruffle gown and lastly in a beautiful Missoni colorful dress.

Here she is chanelling a 1920's flapper look in a Roberto Cavalli sequined dress at the Vanity Fair Part in Cannes on Saturday night. If it's anything i love the most it's her black feathered clutch.
A day later, Ms.Barton is in London attending the Britain's Best 2008 Awards wearing an unbelievably beautiful Marchesa LBD, which is kind of reminiscent of Gwyneth Paltrow in the Stella McCartney black lace dress a couple of weeks back.

Straight off the runway: Mischa Barton

Mischa Barton attends the Quintessentially/Margherita Missoni Party during the Cannes Film Festival on Friday night in Cannes, France. Ahh another beautiful choice in outfit by Mischa who wears a beautiful multi-colored Missoni maxi dress from the spring 2008 collection which was worn with Jenny Kane flat sandals. She definitely looks much better than the runway model with her curves, however, another choice in hair style would have really made this look.

ID that dress: Blake Lively

Gossip Girl actress Blake Lively took the night off to celebrate NYLON's "Young Hollywood" dinner & party on Wednesday. Lively donned a delicate Dolce & Gabbana semi-sheer organza minidress worn with a very busy necklace and black heels. I think this dress would have been a ten out of ten if Lively didn't wear that necklace and let her hair down. But the dress really is gorgeous.

Jumper hottie Rachel Bilson attended the debut of Rogan for Target at Barneys in Beverly Hills on Thursday. Rogan for Target is a new collection of organic clothing. The line has a mixture of pieces from leopard print swimsuits, teeny little shorts, some cute caftans, and also a few pairs of black jeans which is a good thing of course given the fact that Rogan Gregory is most known for his great fitting jeans which are of course eco friendly.

Straight off the runway: Leighton Meester

I can't begin to explain how fantastic Leighton Meester has been looking in the past week or so, she is so out dressing her Gossip Girl co-star Blake Lively, which was surprising because Lively was starting out so well, lets hope she or her stylist gets her sense back in terms of the wardrobe. Here, Meester wears a beautifully simple green Monique Lhuillier one shouldered ruffle dress from the designers pre-fall 2008 collection. Love it!

Straight off the runway: Mischa Barton

Mischa Barton attended the British GQ celebration of the 'How To Lose Friends & Alienate People' party at Festival House in Cannes, France yesterday. I am so in love with Mischa's modified Matthew Williamson embellished dropped waist dress form the designers Spring 2008 collection. I actually prefer it a lot more than the runway version, probably because it has a more simple elegance to it. Bravo to Miss Barton, who hasn't been having many fashion hits lately, she looks so fresh and stunning!
