Fur For Fall

October 20, 2009

Tsk!  Tsk!  What a bad blogger I am!  I will not provide excuses… Even though I have some good ones… and will instead cut to the chase and chat about my favorite subject – CLOTHES! 
If  following the fashion trends isn’t your “thing” you may not realize that fur is a big-time must have this season.  [...]

Recycling the Basics – 1 Dress 4 Ways

September 23, 2009

I read recently, that a stylish gal opted to wear the same dress for ONE full year but switched things up a bit by layering jackets, sweaters, turtlenecks, belts, and other accessories to change the look up COMPLETELY!  I must say, after viewing her “diary” of looks it was hard to recognize her LBD as [...]

Going on a date?  Chillin’ with some friends and hitting up a movie and a cup of joe, or maybe heading to an end of the season summer picnic?  Perhaps this weekend is a good time to don the white pants for the last go ’round or maybe you want to pull out a brand new [...]

Bananas Over Taylor Jacobson

September 1, 2009

Who is Taylor Jacobson?  Why she’s the tough as nails, nay sayin’, style-saavy gal who is an integral addition to the cast on “The Rachel Zoe Project” on Bravo  TV.  Yes, “Tay” could use a bang trim, however her eclectic mix of vintage prints and woodcutter plaids  mixed with toughened up leather has me head [...]

Picnic Wear

June 30, 2009

July 4th is the official picnic day of the year!  Everyone gathers together throws “stuff” on the grill and overall enjoy each other for the afternoon.  But what to wear?  Skip the stilettos to avoid sinking into the grass and instead try a fashionable wedge for height.  If you can forgo the heels for a [...]

Get Lim For Less

June 23, 2009

The Phillip Lim 3.1 spring summer 2009 collection certainly didn’t disappoint.  One of the stand-out and signature features of the collection was Lim’s use of the zipper as an artsy embellishment.  Zippers were formed into cascading waterfalls against classic silhouettes and the shoes that stomped the runway mimicked the pretty and girly vibe from start [...]

Cheap Chic Site

June 17, 2009

I absolutely adore getting a bargain, or finding out the best places to bargain hunt, especially in these rough economic times when a fashionista like myself has morphed into a recessionista practically overnight.  In recent months I have (GASP) not really been in the malls, but unfortunately for my wallet, I have been fastidiously shopping online and have come across the website [...]

Picnic Wear

May 27, 2009

Memorial Day officially kicks off “Picnic Season”.  There are graduation parties galore (typically outside), July 4th, and just plain BBQ get togethers to celebrate the sunny weather and an excuse to use the grill.  So, what to wear to one of these fetes when formal wear is a no-no, but you still want to look [...]

Staying Polished

May 15, 2009

There aren’t too many things in this world that make a fat day disipate – however I have found that on a major water retention day I head for the nearest make-up counter where I am never too chunks-ville for a pretty new lip lacquer, shimmery shadow, or better yet a brand-spankin’ new nail color.  This [...]

SJS’s May Muse

May 14, 2009

Street fashion is my thing – and as my regular readers know, it’s one of my favorite things to feature on SJS postings.  Spring 2009 is a season of many neutrals from pants, tulip skirts, tanks, shoes – even make-up.  While some may shy away from the bland palette there are great ways to wear [...]
