Runway Look Real Person Price

March 5, 2009

We all want to look like catwalk stalkers, but unfortunately most of us don’t have the dough to get the exact look.  While it’s fun to window shop at the high end designer stores, I revel more in finding less expensive versions that mimic the exact getup I saw on the runway.  So, now is your [...]

I stumbled across a website recently that for me, is PURE eye candy.  The premise behind the site is to feature  street fashions from around the world and showcases fashionable Euros, South Americans, North Americans and every where in between.  There were so many styles that provided me with a muse to emulate before checking out [...]

London Fashion Week

February 26, 2009

I always get a little nostalgic when London Fashion Week rolls around… It takes me back to the days when I lived in the jolly UK and passed by the glorious white tents and watched as the glamour-pusses made their way past the gatekeepers into the lively shows.  London isn’t always getting oodles of accolades [...]

Is It a DO or a DON’T?

February 25, 2009

Every season designers must come up with a new or revised way to style it up.  I am sure that you all remember the bare leg craze a few years ago that dictated that the only acceptable way to don your favorite open-toes was suffering through it with naked gams… Luckily though this past season thick, [...]

New York Fashion Week!

February 17, 2009

And so it begins!  The Fall/Winter 2009 shows in New York have kicked off and all the designers are ready to show us what’s a “MUST” for our wardrobes once autumn rolls around this year.  I know, I know, the last think you want to think about right now is your winter wardrobe, but the [...]

Fur Sure

February 6, 2009

I like to be warm when I head out into the elements, and there’s nothing warmer than fur.  Yes, the cost of fur is a little higher than most of us want to spend, but since the season is SLOWLY rolling to an end (I hope) you can find some really sweet deals on fur [...]

Neutral Naturally

January 28, 2009

Even though it doesn’t quite feel like it, Spring is right around the corner.  While bright colors are always fun to throw on once the temps heat up, this year neutrals like beige, bisque, tan, dusty rose, smokey gray among other whisper light hues in the same family are the way to go.  Layering these [...]

Chicago Chic?

January 8, 2009

This past weekend I had the pleasure of visiting the very mid-western city
Chicago.  I love city getaways… I enjoy trying new restaurants, visiting museums, shopping, and of course observing the style of many of the inhabitants.  As you may already know, after reading some of my city inspiration postings I love to meld city chic-ness [...]
