Spring/Summer 2008 Trend Alert: Ruffle-Trim-Bottom Maxi Dress

I’m seeing a pattern lately: lots of maxi (and mini!) dresses with ruffle trim on the skirt edges. Reminds me of the ‘gypsy’ maxi skirt/dress trend from the past few years. And me likey.
Maxi dresses are perfect as Hot-Mama-To-Be wear, as so eloquently shown recently by #2 favorite 2008 Celeb Hot-Mama-To […]

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’ […]

Spring/Summer 2008 Trend Roll-Over: Gladiator Sandals

“Trend Roll-Over” - this is when a trend from the previous year (same season) “rolls over” to the next year (same season). Take for instance, the fold-over boot that we previously discussed. That was totally a trend roll-over. I don’t know how I concocted this
term, but I like it. It […]

Rihanna Sure Loves American Apparel Dresses

I love when celebrities shop at the same stores as we do. Stores that we can afford, I mean…
As is the case here.
I don’t really even need to do a Same Look for Less feature here b/c the dresses Rihanna’s in the pics below wearing appear to be from American Apparel. But I […]

Celine Dion: A Hot Mama?!?

Well, well, well! I never thought I’d be talking about Ms. Celine Dion’s fashion in a POSITIVE light (you guys remember the backwards tux fiasco, don’t you? Nevermind. Don’t try to remember it. It’s better off forgotten…)
Here’s Celine and her hubby Rene Angelil arriving to the NRJ Awards in […]

Reader Request & Same Look for Less: J.Lo’s Platform Pumps

Faithful reader Yaya wrote asking for a ‘Same Look for Less‘ feature on J. Lo’s (didn’t she ask for people to stop calling her that? Oh well!) platform pumps that she wore to her baby shower recently.
Funny thing was I was going to do a Same Look for Less on the shoes when […]

The Hotness : Inky Black Skinny Jeans

Here I go with my ‘rocker chick’ look again. I am loving the skinny black jean though. Preferably, it should has an INKY JET black pair, but a washed out pair works just fine too. The example above is from Urban Outfitters‘ website. It’s called the BDG Cigarette Leg Jean. […]

Winter ‘07-’08 Trend Alert: Suede or Leather Fold Over Boots

 

With this ‘over the knee/thigh-high’ boot phenomenon going on right now, I’m noticing trend in boots now is the “fold over” style which (when the flap is folded down) reaches right around the lower knee area.
Unfolded, the flap covers the knee area. *Pauses and thinks a bit* Um…now, if you don’t want […]

Cool Site: Shop Suey Boutique

You all know me by now. I’m not into paying X-hundreds of dollars on anyone’s designer bag (well..there was that ONE time but you knowwww that was an exception, right? An early birthday gift to myself! But I digress…)
So I know I’ve told you all about the bag that I bought […]

Nine West Liatris Shoe Madness & The Runner’s Up

I’ve received a few requests on where one can find the gorgeous “Liatris” platform pumps by Nine West that I talked about a few months ago and unfortunately, I’m not having any luck finding them either–and I’ve been looking everyyywhere (even eBay!) The sale price when I found them back in June was […]
