What Was She Wearing
As 2010 quickly approaches, you surely have lots on your mind. Whether it's finalizing your resolutions, picking out the perfect party frock, or trying to pin down your midnight smooch, there is much to be done in the final days of the year. But just because that glittering orb is about to descend in Times Square doesn't mean we'll drop the ball when it comes to answering all of your most urgent celebrity clothing questions—oh no! In fact, we've gathered a particularly standout collection of lovely ladies for your outfit-centric edification in this year's final installment of What Was She Wearing! We hope you enjoy today's story, and have a happy new year, dear readers, from the entire gang at Who What Wear!

Sometimes, typically when battling yet another installment of our chronic insomnia, we like to lull ourselves to sleep thinking about the perfect life. In this parallel universe, we'd wake up in our Ryan Korban-designed pad (oh, how we adore his work), brew up a fresh batch of Stumptown coffee, and then wander into our giant closet filled with beautiful black-on-black clothes, much like the ones favored by model Maryna Linchuk. The Russian stunner has collected an assortment of wardrobe staples—little leather jackets, sharp shoes, and skinny pants galore—in an inky palette we not-so-secretly adore. In lesser hands, Linchuk's nearly monochromatic wardrobe could err on the uninteresting side of things, but thanks to a smart selection of unbasic black pieces (a mixture of opacities, textures, and layers), her Model Off Duty look is one to covet.

As girls about town, you have a variety of different events you must be impeccable for, from holiday cocktail parties to casual dates. And while it seems like most of you go ga-ga for a glorious frock and high-shine clutch nearly any day of the week (as do we!), you sometimes need a little inspiration for more casual affairs or your off-duty days. Unlike festive Saturday nights or business-casual Fridays, weekend dressing is its own sartorial animal that can often be quite a scoundrel to style. Obviously you want to be comfortable, without looking sloppy, so we suggest looking to your favorite trendsetters—who are snapped daily–for their casually cute tips. From how to step out in sneakers to the right way to cozy up with a patterned scarf, these lovely ladies offer prime examples of how to appear effortlessly cool. In fact, we can say after reviewing this roundup the only steadfast rule for weekend-wear is: oversized bag required!

As we countdown to Christmas, we're hoping for a sartorial miracle and putting the final flourishes on wish-lists filled to the brim with lust-worthy items from all our favorite friends (a little Proenza Schouler, some Givenchy, and a dash of 3.1 Phillip Lim!). However, we know what always makes these perfect pieces merry and bright is not just their lovely craftsmanship and delightful design, but also (and just as importantly!) the ways in which they're styled. Luckily, this month's set of stalkees provides us with the perfect dose of insight as they have each come up with a personal way to wear some of our favorite winter trends. Whether they're cozying up to spotted styles, perking up a neutral canvas with statement jewels, or boldly breaking rules by mixing neutrals, they're proving to be our gift of inspiration beneath the proverbial tree. So while you're writing your list and checking it twice, don't forget to check out this month's Style Stalker for a glimpse at all that is stylish and nice!
