Iconic Style: 10 Classics For Your Closet

Make no mistake — a catchy collar necklace and fit-and-flare peplum top will take you far this Fall.
Iconic Style: 10 Classics For Your Closet

Make no mistake — a catchy collar necklace and fit-and-flare peplum top will take you far this Fall. But it’s the wardrobe well-stocked with iconic basics that truly goes the distance, for the simple reason that some classics never go out of style.

Consider the always on-trend UGG® Boots, which are as popular on the red carpet and the runway as they are on the street. Look for a pair that is equal parts timeless and exquisite, like the new Classic Short Sparkles. Featuring star-like sequins, glimmering metallic heel guard and flecks of sparkle to enhance the shearling-lined silhouette, it’s the same celebrated short boot with an even more luxurious twist!

And while metallic just so happens to be of-the-moment this season, the fashionable truth remains that a little sparkle is always spectacular — making this a stylish staple for years to come.

Variety hosted its annual Power of Women event in Beverly Hills today with major stars like Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner in attendance. Jen arrived fresh from the salon in a slicked-back ponytail and looked lovely in a textured peplum dress. She happily posed for photos before the luncheon while Ben quickly made his way down the press line and headed inside.

It's the second big event for the A-list couple in less than 24 hours. Last night, Ben and Jen joined George Clooney and Stacy Keibler at the LA premiere of Argo. It was a celebratory night for Ben, who stars in and directs the CIA thriller, based on true events, and for George, who produced the flick. Argo hits theaters next Friday, but today it's all about Jen's box office draw with her latest feature, Butter, opening in select cities.

Jessica Biel spent her afternoon at the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel for Variety's fourth annual Power of Women event. She was one of five movie-industry honorees being acknowledged at the luncheon. Jessica's work advocating for access to clean water earned her the accolades. She's long been active in bringing attention to the plight of people without access to drinkable water. She told Variety, "It's a basic, human need, desire and right to be able to live and grow up and raise your children and your family in a place that provides clean water, and it's astronomical the amount of people who don't have access to that in a convenient way. That's why it's important to me." At the event, Jessica was able to catch up with her Valentine's Day costar and pal Jennifer Garner. Jessica took a photo of herself with Jen, captioning the image, "I'm the best at taking self pics! But seriously, how beautiful is Jen?"
