If you’ve been watching the addictive House of DVF this year and following her life and career in general, you know that not only is Diane von Furstenberg the coolest lady alive, she’s an endless source of mind-blowing bits of wisdom—the kind of concise musings on life, humanity, and womanhood that make time stop as you consider the truth and impact of her brilliant words.
Some of the year’s deepest discounts occur right off the bat and luckily, New Year’s Day is the perfect time to stay home and indulge in a little post-holiday retail therapy. Our advice? Scope out basics such as sweaters and coats in neutral colors, denim, and boots, as opposed to trendy pieces. Since we’re halfway through winter, if you stick to basics that you know will still be in style next year, you’ll get your money’s worth. Bonus: Your holiday gift cards will go a lot further if you shop the sales!

Blake Lively really seems to do it all. In the past few years she's gone from starring as the trendsetting Serena van der Woodsen we all knew and loved to larger roles on the big screen, become a wife and mom-to-be, and launched her lifestyle venture Preserve, all while maintaining the most covetable red carpet, street, and pregnancy style. Now, she's reportedly adding another project to her ever-expanding pipeline: launching an infantwear line under the Preserve umbrella, called Preserve Baby.

We recommend a more balanced approach to fashion—a majority of classics, sprinkled with trend-driven pieces—but that doesn’t mean we’re immune to the endless cycle of fads. As such, we figured a year-end review was in order for the trends of 2014 that we’re ready to retire (for the moment anyway), as well as fresh suggestions to take their place.

Check out their latest easy-to-recreate looks!
