Look For Less!

23 Apr

These knee-high Stuart Weitzman gladiator sandals have been all the rage this Spring.  I gave them some serious thought, but for something that was outside of my fashion box, the price wasn’t worth it for me, UNTIL last week when I scrolled across my blogger buddy’s Instagram page (Amy’s Vintage closet)and saw her wearing what I thought to be Stuart Weitzman sandals, but NOOOOOOO they were super affordable alternatives. I immediately started my search and found them too!!!!! They arrived on my porch TODAY and they look the SAME as the $400 pair!  At $32 I was totally willing to try knee-high gladiators! Scroll down for all the details on where to get a pair of your own!

Kimono Style! (Take 2)

28 Feb

Last Spring I wrote a Kimono Style post sharing my love for the light and airy pieces.  This year the kimono is going to be HUGE, I’ve been trying to tell the world for the last year and people are catching on! Last year’s post is getting so much traffic but most of the links are sold out since it’s been so long. I’ve decided to do today’s post and include shoppable links to plenty of kimonos that are available NOW! I have included petite,plus size and tall size kimonos as well….No fashionista left behind here! Ready, set shop! These are just some of my favorites, but there are many more at Asos (one of my favorite online shopping destinations, They have petite, plus size and tall sizes for many of their clothes!)

P.S. Throw your kimono over whatever the heck you want! They look great with jeans, shorts, skirts, over dresses etc!

Happy shopping,

xo, Journey

Lady Gaga Face Of Versace Spring Campaign!

25 Nov

Rumors and pictures  have been swirling around the web for a week or so of Lady Gaga in a pretty pale purple Versace dress.  The picture is gorgeous and the rumors are true. The Versace camp confirmed that the 27 year mega star is the face of their Spring 2014 ad campaign. The pictures released so far reveal a fresh-faced lady gaga with long blonde hair- a look very reminiscent of a young Donatella Versace. The ads will begin appearing in magazines in January of next year.
