Setting the stage with rich fabrics and bright colors, Lela Rose kicked off her Fall ‘09 collection for Payless. All of the shoes feature signature marks seen in a number of Lela’s other collections. The Fall ‘09 line, taking inspiration from the forest, doesn’t fail to supply us with a ton of fun colors and bows.

GALLERY: Lela Rose, Fall 09

At the Lela Rose Fall 09 Show at Fashion Week, the makeup of choice was Stila Cosmetics. The look was very basic and natural, yet it worked on the runway. Normally, runway makeup looks are hard to imitate at home, but I think this is one you can handle on your own with the new collection by Stila.

The collection includes:

· Starlight Eye shadow- Shimmer on the eyes.

· Cranberry Lip Glaze- Gave the models lips a pouty look.

· Stila Sun Shade 01- Bronzer was used on the models cheekbones.

· Major Lash Mascara in Brown- Finish off the makeup look.

Stila Backstage with Lela Rose and Beauty.com Makeup Collection : $34.

As we’ve learned over the years, Lela Rose has never been one to shy away from rich, enticing colors; a point she proved yet again with the launch of her Fall 2009 collection at Bryant Park this morning. 

This winter’s Payless designers holiday collections include shoes from Patricia Field, Lela Rose and Abaeté.  The Patricia Field ones look like the only shoes I’d get close enough to inspect.  The other ones are a little blah to me…
