While I was never too crazy about Katharine McPhee’s new platinum ‘do, I never wavered on loving her perfect red carpet style. And just yesterday, I was swooning over the cool casual outfit she put together to promote her new cd.

Her look was so effortless and made up of pieces that most of us already own (or items that are on our Fall Fashion Shopping List), like a black tunic; dark solid leggings; versatile work-to-weekend boots; a moto jacket and a cool carry all (hers is a $1900 about YSL “Muse” bag”). I also love how her styling –especially her hair – mimics the retro vibe of her cd cover!
