Hafsa's accessories and candy-red nails pop against her bold stripes...

Sometimes it doesn't go quite according to plan...

We have far too much fun putting together these little Pose Offs and while you may assume we look glamorous and photo-ready 24/7, yes - even we have our awkward little posing moments.

Hafsa's working the Lipstick Pose, while Ali is dodging pidgeon poop apparently.

Jen's a giggler...

... and Kellie's a blinker

I guess Cathy is both...

Recently, I was invited to stop by for a peek:

The Wool-Blend Bomber Jacket is cozy for cool fall days (also available in a neutral charcoal).

At ChickAdvisor HQ, we're ecstatic that bold lipsticks are Fall's hottest beauty trend.  Of course, we all had to sit down immediately and compare our favourite punchy shades.

Hafsa's fresh orange shade from MAC (in 'Vegas Volt') plays nicely off the animal print in her scarf.  Girlfriend looks good in everything, doesn't she?

Cathy is wearing plum-toned Mary Kay...

We're back with another edition of the Posing Wall, and this time we're celebrating the colours of the season.  While you may immediately think of rich reds, oranges, and browns, another strong trend this fall are strong blues, which we were excited to see carry over on the Paris runways for Spring 2011 as well...

This time on the Posing Wall, we went all out for Denim.  Happily, many favourite cuts from seasons past are still very much on trend so we could focus on accessorizing and not on accidentally wearing the same outfit.  Whew - 'Casual Friday' fashion faux pas averted!

Jen paired basic but sexy patent pumps with her straight leg jeans and topped her ensemble with a favourite slouchy...
