Comfy Chic: Thong Sandals

Add some adorable, lightweight thong sandals to complete an easy, carefree spring/summer look.  They look great with jeans or some maybe some wide leg trousers.   Even better at a trip to the beach.
Totally grown and sexy.
Macy*s has some cute ones on their site:
Style & Co. “Persia” Thong - $39.00 USD

Michael Kors “MK Jelly” Thong […]

Hippie-style Headwraps: Yea or Nay?

I don’t know where the idea came from, but I’m kinda obsessed with the idea of headbands/wraps tied around the forehead. Mind you, it truly is NOT a style for everyone. I haven’t tried it yet so I’m not sure it’s for me, and truth be told, it’s one of those fashion “things” […]

What I Want NOW: White Fedora

Spring is upon us and it’s time for us to get our crispy white items like hats, tees, shoes/sandals, out of the boxes you have labeled “Spring clothes”.
I’ve been eyeing white (straw) fedoras for a few months now and decided to get one today while out perusing my local mall. It will […]

I wrote about the rumor of Nicole Richie possibly designing maternity wear, however People magazine is confirming that Nicole is definitely in the process of designing jewelry, and later she will put out an infant’s and children’s clothing line, a fragrance, and I’m sure it […]

Spring ‘08 Cuteness: J. Crew Jelly Ballet Flat

Woooohooo! We did it. We (especially we East Coasters) survived one of the worst winters ever. And we’re still standing. True, we’re standing on several feet of melting snow, but we’re still standing… Let’s all give each other a pat on the back (and a few drinks–I’ll take a lychee martini, […]

Original Hunter Wellington Rain Boot

So I did it. After MONTHS (seriously) of contemplating, putting the item in my virtual shopping cart, deleting it, thinking about it, flip-flopping between wanting them and then trying to stay in the real world, I just took the plunge and bought a pair of Hunter brand’s “Original” Wellington rain boot in red […]

Penelope & Monica Cruz for MNG (Mango)

picApp_publisherId = 671;picApp_imageId = 4411;picApp_imageWidth = 335;picApp_imageHeight = 504;picApp_configUrl = “http://pis.picapp.com/IamProd/FlashSite/GetConfig.aspx”;picApp_Picview=”http://pis.picapp.com/IamProd/FlashSite/en/picviewerv1_1.swf”;picapp_numberOfLine=2;ImageServe();
I don’t know if Monica Cruz is wearing a shortsuit or if this is a mini-dress, but I’m feeling it.
If it is a mini-dress, I think this can be a very easy look to emulate. Just take an oversized men’s dress shirt (satin […]

Same Look For Less: Alexander McQueen Kimono Style Cardigan

Saw this lovely Alexander McQueen cardigan on Net-A-Porter today. Nice, isn’t it? However, you know me; I’d never pay $2,125.00 for a cardigan, but maybe some of y’all out there could/would.
Personally, I love the grey/red combo and it insprired me to find something similar. I smell a Same Look for Less comin’ […]

Swimwear 2008 Sneak Peeks: One-Piece Cutout Suits

I’m all over these one-pieces. I love ‘em.
Yeah, it’s below freezing where I am, and the snow just keeps coming but I got my eye on Bermuda in a few weeks (going in April–yippeeeee!) Therefore I’ve been shopping like a beast for Hot Mama swimwear for my “every-2 years-all-girls-no-husbands/boyfriends-or-kids getaway” trip with my […]
