Grey is the new black! Pile on the bangles! Volume is in; skinny is out! If you’re anything like me, deciphering fashion trends can sometimes be a pain in the butt. If grey is the new black, what is the new grey? What kind of bangles? I thought volume was always in!

However, thanks to the Glam Network, predicting style trends doesn’t have to be as opaque as predicting the weather. Here’s some fashion help for those looking towards the fall.

A great place to get started is at my favorite shopping site ever, NET-A-PORTER. They’ve got a handy guide to fall’s hottest trends. (Thanks for the heads up, Fashiontribes!)

Nordstrom’s newest inventory’s got Ms. S.P. at Shopaholics Daily looking forward to fall. (Shopaholics Daily)

Accessories are the one thing that everyone can agree is a MUST for livening up your fall wardrobe. She Finds suggests colorful socks, and Kathryn over at The Budget Fashionista wants you to consider fedoras.

Have your own personal style prediction? Make yours over in the comments section of Kiss Me Stace. Who knows? Maybe you’ll see your divinations on the runway come NY Fashion Week this September!

Lots of love, Connie

So, I’ve never been one for superstitions, astrology or zodiacs. Sure I’ll check my horoscope in the back of Cosmo mag, but it always seems that other signs are a better match for my personality traits. I’ve never tried tarot cards, but I’ll admit that I do find them intriguing. All this considered, I was surprised by my new found obsession- Glam Network’s newest publisher, and content provider, Tarot.com.  In addition to Glam’s amazing publishers, fashion features, celebrity scoop, and beauty advice, another daily stop is the recently published Horoscopes section, powered by Tarot.com. Every day I am:

• Checking in on my Cosmic Profile
• Finding meaning in the tarot Card of the Day
• Attempting to reverse the Compatibility Meter of me and the bf (apparently our match is a bit of “oil and water don’t mix” )
• Catching myself continuiously amazed by the truths of the Love Meter!

Check out this hot new feature/ new network member, and you’ll be hooked!

Stay classy,

Annie

When I was picking out my laptop for college, I was looking for a few specific things. Number one, it had to have minesweeper (sorry Macs, this rules you all out). Number two, it had to be light enough to shlep around campus. And three, it had to be pretty. Maybe this makes me the archetypal tech-clueless girl, but hey, with all the (almost daily) advances in technology, most laptops’ hard drives, processors, and image resolutions are up to par. I settled on a beautiful, glossy black HP that handles all my needs (while providing me hours of entertainment via Minesweeper).

But hey, style doesn’t have to end there. The Glam Network has more ideas to help glam up my laptop.

If you’re looking for a super-girly and super-cheap laptop, look no further than this pink Woolsworth laptop. With a pricetag of £399, it’s hard to say no. (Shiny Shiny)

Looking for something a little more edgy? Try this graphic Asus as designed by Giles Deacon. However, this one is a bit more expensive at £1,499. But hey, designer duds don’t come for cheap, right? (Shiny Shiny)

Wanna protect that bad boy of yours? Why not wrap it up in this luxe silk and leather case. It’s too bad they don’t make this in a larger, sleeping-bag size. (Shiny Shiny)

If that’s a little too Princessy for you, maybe this Bodie and Fou leather zip bag is more your style. (The Bag Lady)

However, my personal favorite carrier is this funky brocade laptop bag by Abbi New York. (Popgadget)

Lots of love, Connie
