Rumor has it Anna Wintour is putting Lady Gaga on the most coveted cover in all of fashion, Vogue‘s September issue! Is it true?????? Sounds like a dream
shoot to me! Last time Gaga graced the March 2011 Vogue cover, it was the second best-selling issue that year. I think she’ll get the #1 spot this time.
Perfect almost flat sandal to dress up or down this super slight wedge is only $22 at Old navy.

The Fendi baguette is arguably the first “it” bag. 
The bag was the creation of the Italian fashion house in 1997 and was designed to be carried under the arm like a french loaf of bread, hence the name baguette. This iconic bag was created in over 1,000 styles ranging from beaded to bright and everything in between. Time to dust off your baguettes ladies, I smell a major comeback!
The Fendi Baguette book ($73.52) celebrates the 15 year anniversary of the coveted bag , following it’s journey from the 90’s to now. Along with the book, Fendi will be reissuing 6 select baguettes in honor of the occasion. see below. Shop baguettes at Fendi.
Sarah Jessica Parker helped launch the baguette into super stardom in sex and the city.
Remember when a mugger stole Carrie’s bag nearly 15 years ago?

Wedding season is upon us and the invites should be arriving in your mail boxes around this time. The dreaded question is always “what do I wear to a summer wedding?” You want to look great without taking away from the bride, that’s the goal. You want something that can easily transition from day to evening without being overdressed. A lot of summer weddings are outdoors so that brings a sense of “casual” that you just don’t have during other seasons, and that is great to work with when deciding on an outfit.
Let’s start with some basics
Do
* Wear sleeveless, you won’t overheat
*wear something sexy, yet tasteful
*wear pretty polka dots, fun florals and summer colors like greens, peaches, yellows and pinks.
*keep a wrap or pashmina in the car for transition to evening
Don’t
*wear anything too low cut
*wear white, unless the bride specifies
*wear a tight dress, fitted is different from tight. If you wouldn’t wear it in front of grandma, don’t wear it to a wedding.
P.S. heels are totally acceptable, even if you have to practice walking in grass first!
Skirts and tops always work for weddings but I prefer dresses, I think a dress, even a “casual” style brings a sense of grace to your look and appears a bit more polished. Also, when you involve separates you basically increase the chance for disaster with each piece you add, and so much more thought has to go into it. 1 piece is easier than 2, it’s as simple as that.
Here are some looks to inspire you

I had to share this little tidbit that I read today on Allure. It lists the 5 nail colors that look Fab no matter what your skin tone is.
Shades, frames, sunglasses whatever you want to call them, we all own at least one pair. Chances are they are either wayfarers or aviators. These timeless styles are both classic and modern and look good on many different face shapes and features. Lets give credit where credit is due….. Ray Ban is a pioneer when it comes to sunglasses. In 1936 Aviators were originally developed by Ray Ban to protect pilots eyes while flying and in 1956 Ray Ban manufactured the wayfarer, this design was a break from the traditional metal framed eyewear that dominated at that time. Many styles of sunglasses come and go but these two always remain top sellers. If you don’t own a pair yet, try some on and you just may like them. Your eyes will thank you.
