29 Apr

I’m leaving L.A.!!!!! Pump the brakes, I’ll only be gone for a week. Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE L.A. but it is nice to get away once in a while and I’m doing just that. I’m leaving for Kauai Tomorrow and I am so excited to do a whole bunch of nothin’. I must warn you now that I will only do a few posts for the week as opposed to the 7-10 that I normally do! The YSJ Facebook page should be just as active as normal, updated sales, fun stuff etc. But as far as actual posts on this blog, I will not have the time to do my normal research as I will be sitting on my butt all day at beautiful beaches sippin’ mai tais:) I thank you all for your understanding;) and I’ll be back in full force the week after next!

BYE for now!

WHCD Red Carpet!

28 Apr

WOWZERS! I am more than impressed with the red carpet looks at tonight’s 98th Annual White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner. The festivities took place at the Washington Hilton in Washington, DC.  I don’t know if people got serious because the President was in the room , but whatever happened I love it!  Here are some of my favorite looks.

Fashion meets Function with Black Ties

28 Apr

Fashion meets function with this super cute hair tie collection called Black Ties by Bloom jewelry. I found out about these by spotting one on a friends wrist and asking her about it. I thought it was a great idea being that most women are on the go and are usually caught with a hair tie of some sort on their wrist. These are spruced up hair ties that look great alone or can easily blend in with bracelets. When added to a braid, bun or pony tail they create a chic and fun look without pulling or snagging. Known as “The Elastic all Dressed up”, these are perfect for throwing your hair up all Summer long. They range in price from $26-$48 for a package of 2 and are available on the Bloom Jewelry website and select boutiques.

That just sounds weird, right?

Wrong. it sounds fantastic. Guerlain and Emilio Pucci has teamed up to bring a new taste to cosmetics in the Guerlain Terra Azzurra Collection by Emilio Pucci. This set is a limited edition and has tastes of Pucci’s signature designs. Blues are everywhere (except the eyeshadows and bronzer). On the cases, the bristles, the color of the mascara, the pearls, the kohl, and an option for the nail lacquer. Just like the mesh of Pantone and Sephora made a hit with orange this season, Emilio Pucci and Guerlain are sure to make a mark with blues.

Here’s the whole collection for your viewing/shopping pleasure:

Kimono Style

25 Apr

I love kimono style tops, in particular kimono style silky or sheer “cardigans”. I love the open and airy feel they have and how they can be worn as a light jacket and are layerable in warm Summer months. I  love the drapey soft and feminine silhouette of these tops and I have included some of my favorite styles to shop below. These can be worn with a plain tank top or T shirt and jeans or over a solid dress.

How celebrities are wearing their Asian inspired tops.

Yellow floral Kimono cape($88) available at Nordstrom. Blue printed kimono cardigan($35) available at Lulu’s. Tie dye inspired kimono cardigan($79.90) available at Zara. Black floral with solid trim kimono cardigan in Plus size($24.99) available at Target.

Blue starflower print kimono cardigan(sale($40 reg$75) available at Topshop.

Black & brown kimono cardigan($13.99), solid blush kimono cardigan($13.50), Bird kimono cardigan($27.80) and cream floral kimono cardigan($24.80) all available at Forever21.
