I've moved to Boston for college, and, as many of you probably realize, it's cold - much colder than New Jersey ever was.

I really could use a cute long, warm, winter jacket (key words long and warm - I feel like a lot of the jackets I see online probably wouldn't hold up to the Boston chill).

Help a girl out - send me your recommendations.

Better yet, direct me to a store where I could actually try them on for myself instead of ordering online.

Thanks so much!

Can anyone help me with this?

I saw a friend wearing one of these hats, and I fell in love with it. However, I can't seem to find the right one. I'm looking for a faux fur version with a knit - not shelled - fabric, and none of those horrible wintry patterns.

My friend said she got hers at American Eagle, and so I checked there, and all of them would be great save the patterns.

Can anyone please help me?

I'm on a desperate search for a pair of square framed sunglasses and I finally spotted a pair I love.

But of course I have no idea who makes them and I'm pretty sure they are from a previous season. (Because I've already seen the knock offs in a mall chain).

Anyway, they've been photographed on Angelina Jolie and Elizabeth Hasselbeck, and they need to be added to my collection.

They are brown with gold on the outside corners, similar to the Chloé aviators. Ring any bells?

I go the University of Illinois and have taken on the massive project of single handedly improving the midwest's fashion.

To start, we're holding our first of two annual fashion shows this October. We're looking for models but can't seem to get the word out.

The clothes are amazing. They're all made from recycled materials - think coke cans, bubble wrap etc - but we need amazing models to wear them!

Any advice on how to get girls to come to our castings?

The only real requirement is that they're at least 5'7''and around a four or a six - the artists met this summer and discussed which body types we should design for - we're trying to respect fashion and the girls' bodies.

Thanks a bundle!

Hi there,

At the moment, I am planning a fashion parade event for my university (University of Technology Sydney) and we are trying to get professional and student designers to display their garments.

We are trying to recruit volunteer models to help us out with this. It would be a great opportunity for aspiring models to get experience and meet industry professionals on the night of the event.

If you are interested or know how we should go about finding volunteer models, help let me know!

Thanks,

Katrina

Gillian Anderson recently wore a pair of grey, open-toed heels in her appearance on Letterman.

Who is the designer and are they still available for purchase?

Sarah Jessica Parker was also featured wearing the same pair in the July 2008 issue of InStyle Magazine (p.119, in the grey YSL dress).

Thought they [shoes] were YSL, but a quick call to their press office derailed that thought.

Thanks!
