On Tuesday October 19 I attended the Frye Spring 2011 collection preview in their Manhattan showroom. Staying true to their classic, rugged signature styles, Frye presented a solid collection of covetable leather shoes and handbags with a few new twists and styles thrown into the mix to keep things fresh. There were flats and hobos with a new metallic color treatment; some dry-washed boots that had that perfectly worn-in look; stud detailing (still subdued but about as glam as Frye is ever going to get) and the introduction of chukka boots in pastel hues, plus reimagined over-the-knee boots, huarache sandals, boat shoes and platform sandals. The cork wedge sandals were incredibly light and would look lovely with floaty dresses and denim shorts alike.

Earlier we reported Gossip Girl stylist Eric Daman was teaming up with Charlotte Russe for a special collection of $50 and under party dresses, now we have a sneak peek at the lookbook. According to @CharlotteRusse on Twitter, the collection will be available online starting tomorrow October 21st, so look for it then! I love the one with the structured shoulders and the one with the lace sleeves, just wondering how short they are in person. Tough to tell on those leggy models! Grab one of these supercute frocks now for those holiday parties, they'll here before you know it.

E! Entertainment's leading ladies of reality television, the Kardashians, have parlayed their reality stardom into dozens of lucrative product deals and brand endorsements, from weightloss supplements and lipgloss to a fashion collab with Bebe. Most recently, the sisters created a fashion line for QVC called K-DASH, which made its debut during the second annual Fashion's Night Out in September.

Now, the girls are scheduled to return for the one-hour premiere of K-DASH by Kardashian on October 22 at 8 PM (ET). Per the press release, "K-DASH reflects a variety of looks, ranging from glam and edgy to feminine and flirty. Staying true to their mission of making fashion accessible to every woman, the Kardashians offer styles that are made to flatter all figures."

Items you can shop right now at QVC.com include a Printed Tunic with Detachable Belt ($59.50), Double Strap Pebble Leather Handbag (sale $209.94) and Riding Pants with Faux Leather Detail ($59.75). It's not exactly my style but the sale prices seem reasonable if you're looking for something like a black blazer or cocktail dress.
