Gossip Girl Style: Blair's Bridesmaids
Mon, 2012-01-30 18:00 | by AnonymousTonight Gossip Girl episode is a milestone in two respects: Blair's wedding and it's the show's 100th episode! It's hard to imagine what our Monday nights would be without the escapades of Manhattan's elite.
When we caught this picture of Blair's bridesmaids, we couldn't help but love the color palatte. Blush and neutral tones are everywhere right now and it seems like the people at GG are loving the trend. To get this soft, feminine look and channel Blair's entourage, rent Milly's Almond Rosette dress for your next date night, cocktail party, or event. It would also be a perfect pick for Valentine's Day (whether you're single or taken!).
Dressing for your Body Type
Fri, 2012-01-27 10:12 | by AnonymousUnderstanding your body type is the first step towards choosing the perfect dress and enhancing your frame’s best assets. The ultimate goal: to create vertical lines that are slimming and flattering, and to give the illusion of a balanced figure for all. Of course, our expert stylists are still here to answer all of your fit questions and to help make your experience with RTR flawless and fabulous (read on to hear from stylists of each body type).

Style Spotlight: Kate Beckinsale
Wed, 2012-01-18 12:23 | by AnonymousKate Beckinsale is already having a stellar 2012 with 3 movies on the horizon and it seems that her career is only getting better with time. Always a class act, we love Kate's feminine, tailored style. See some of her best looks below and get them on RTR!
Kate looks ladylike and sophisticated wearing the Nina Ricci Pink Clouds dress. The belted waist gives her figure a nice silhouette and we love the color on her.
Update your nighttime look by going sleek and sexy like Kate in a long sleeve white sheath. This elegant Rachel Roy White Tex Dress does just the trick.
Kate shows off her feminine and flirty side in this cotton candy colored shift. This style easily transitions from day to night and you can't go wrong with Nicole Miller.
Get The Look: Golden Globes Red Carpet
Mon, 2012-01-16 13:24 | by AnonymousThe red carpet at last night's Golden Globes featured an array of expected and unexpected styles and trends. Below are some of our favorites from the night and you can get their celebrity looks on RTR!
Having just launched Reem Acra on our site, we were thrilled to see Julie Bowen rock the Florence Gown that we just got in! She looks so old Hollywood glam and her soft waves are the perfect complement to the delicate tulle gown.
Reese looked ravishing in this structured, curve hugging Zac Posen gown. The sweetheart neckline suits her well and her sun kissed skin and loose waves give off a perfect blonde bombshell effect. This Bibhu Mohapatra Gown would be perfect for any formal event this winter/spring!
Seriously, can Charlize do no wrong? She looked absolutely ethereal in this Dior Haute Couture gown. For a perfectly positioned deep-V, go with this Temperley London Rosette Charm Gown.
Natalie Portman went super feminine in this pink and red satin Lanvin gown. To emulate Natalie's tailored, sophisticated look with a pop of color go with this Badgley Mischka Lady of Love Gown.
Emma Stone for the win, again! We've been seeing burgundy and plum everywhere lately and Emma's look from last night confirms the colors are here to stay. We especially loved how the Lanvin dress was adorned with an eagle belt. To get Emma's look, work this Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent Burgundy Bliss Gown at your next event.
It's safe to say that Rooney Mara stayed in character as Lisbeth Salander last night in this beautifully cut black Nina Ricci dress. To get her edgy, yet feminine look at a less formal event try the Nina Ricci Seductive Corset Lace Dress.
Glee star Amber Riley wore this ruffle red Badgley Mischka gown with confidence and grace. The sweetheart neckline flatters her figure perfectly and we love a lady in red!
2012 Golden Globes Red Carpet Predictions
Wed, 2012-01-11 13:28 | by AnonymousAwards season kicks off this Sunday with the Golden Globes. The fashion is always a toss up at these awards with stars either playing it safe going edgy. We'd love to see some of the nominees break out of their shell and try something new. See below for our red carpet predictions!
Rooney Mara has been seen all over the red carpet in funky, asymmetrical pieces mostly in darker hues like this Prabal Gurung number. We love the silhouette but see her mixing it up a bit with this ethereal piece by Roksanda Ilincic.
Charlize Theron consistently wears very feminine, figure flattering gowns to red carpet events. We adore this super glamorous canary yellow Christian Siriano gown and know that this would be a super flattering, show-stealing look on the actress.
Kate Winslet usually takes to the red carpet in bold colors and we'd love to see her stick to this trend. Kate should show of her statuesque figure and toned arms in this burnt orange Bibhu Mohapatra gown from his Fall 2011 collection.
Kirsten Dunst is back in action after an award worthy performance in Melancholia. We see her owning the red carpet in this gorgeous printed Yigal Azrouel dress from his Spring 2012 collection. Can you say best dressed?
Meryl Streep is always elegant with her gown choices on the red carpet. We would love to see her in something age appropriate yet a bit trendy like this two toned Yigal Azrouel gown.
Michelle Williams loves to wear simple yet exceptionally chic gowns on the red carpet. In this bold, body hugging Matthew Williamson gown Michelle is sure to snag the best dressed award! Plus, the color would look absolutely stunning with her hair and complexion.
Claire Danes has such a timless look and we would love to see her accentuate her slim but feminine figure. This Zac Posen gown from his Pre-Fall 2012 Collection would be absolutely ba-na-nas on her.
Tuesday Tip: That's a Wrap
Tue, 2012-01-10 17:13 | by AnonymousWhat's the most versatile accessory we can think of that you can wear again and again? A wrap! With this interesting weather we've been having lately (50's in NYC, in January?!) a wrap is the perfect functional piece to throw on for effortlessly chic style.
Our wraps by V. Fraas vary from black to gold to silver, giving you basic options to transition throughout your wardrobe with no trouble at all. We think a wrap pairs beautifully over any one of our designer dresses, and love adding one of our metallic wraps to a basic LBD to add some fun! Traveling? Cozy up to our lurex wraps to not only add warmth on the flight but to look fashion forward like some of our favorite jetsetting celebs!
How will you wrap it up?
Get The Look: Kate Middleton
Mon, 2012-01-09 12:52 | by AnonymousKate and William attended the London premiere of Steven Spielberg's War Horse last night. She wore a gorgeous lace v-neck dress by one of her favorite designers, Alice Temperley. Get Kate's winter-chic look with the Nicole Miller Kate Lace V Dress that is super flattering and an instant classic. Pair with a glitzy cuff from CC Syke and a ladylike Judith Lieber clutch (aptly named the Lady Duchess Bag) for a look fit for a royal.
