Bag Crush!
3 OctI’ve always liked the Alexander Wang Rocco bag, a buttery soft bag with studs on the bottom for a little bit of edge. I first spotted the bag on Kristin Cavallari a few years back and have since seen them everywhere. I really liked how there were different color options for the studs like gold, black nickel, silver etc. I just didn’t find that it “spoke” to my heart which is a must when you’re spending a pretty penny……UNTIL NOW……I just about DIED recently when I saw this bag in person with rose gold hardware! It was speaking to me then!!!!!!!! It is a beauty for sure with just enough super shiny rose studs gold against the soft black pebbled leather and two rolled top handles and a shoulder strap make the bag versatile and easy to wear.
Rocco Bag $925 available HERE.
I am in love with this bag.

Baroque Trend! Do You Dare?
11 SepOk ok I’m breaking from my Spring/Summer 2013 NYFW coverage to talk about this trend that is HOT right now for Fall! The question is…..will you wear it? I may try it but I’m a bit scared. The baroque style brings so many things to mind……17th century, opulence, luxury, royalty, gold, DRAMA! With plenty of elaborate details and wild ornamentation this trend can seem difficult to pull off, I think the right person CAN though. Like any fashion lover I would DIE for a Balmain jacket, but that may be the only baroque piece I would wear or is it????? Hmmmmmm, While I’m not completely closed off to the notion, I’d just have to find the right piece, something that speaks to my heart. A jacket or a clutch???? Maybe a T? or Jeans?
Some inspiration……
All baroque doesn’t have to be gold, these jeans are very wearable.
Cap Toe Shoes Are Here To Stay
9 SepCap toe heels were spotted everywhere this Summer, and the trend is moving along right into Fall. This style is called “cap toe” for the piece of material that covers just the toe of the shoe. Not only have they been spotted on major runways- Chanel, Salvatore Ferragamo and Yves Saint Laurent but celebrities have gone cap toe crazy as well. Cap toe styles are sleek and chic and can be worn with most anything from dresses to pants. Not a heel girl?????? No problem! This trend works no matter what shoe style you prefer. The cap toe translates well from heels to flats.

Farewell Mint…….
2 SepI love pastels and adore wearing light and fun colors all Spring and Summer long. This past Spring/Summer was no different I wore pastels like crazy but I wore the hell out of MINT!!!!!!! I LOVE ALL THINGS MINT! I really had a love affair with the robin’s egg hue! Now that Summer is coming to an end…..I am sad to say goodbye to my beloved mint pieces as I move on and embrace my “darker” side for Fall/Winter. I’m not saying I’ll be totally mintless…..there are days where I will wear it I’m sure……….but I won’t be wearing mint whenever possible like I have for the last 6 months.
Mint…..I will always love you and perhaps next Spring we will pick up where we left off.

The New ‘It’ Bag?
28 AugEvery once in a handbag comes around that represents timeless luxury, a bag that women drool over. This time it’s the Heroine bag by Alexander McQueen. The feminine, yet sculptured top handled design comes in various leathers and sizes. Think of it as a stylish satchel meets Doctors bag, perfect for many years of wear. If you’d like a Heroine bag of your own, buckle up they do come with a hefty four figure price tag, but what ‘it’ bag doesn’t?
Shop the Heroine bag HERE.
Additional thoughts…….. Does this bag have the ‘it’ factor? Absolutely! My favorite part of this bag is the beautiful shape and the flap in front. My least favorite part of this bag….the flap in front…which makes the contents of the bag impossible to access when it’s on your arm. A bit impractical a la Hermès Birkin, beautiful nonetheless.
Pretty Teal Eyeliner
20 AugEyeliner is a definite must have product, waking your face up and instantly making your eyes POP! One swoop of colored liner brings a WOW factor to your eyes! If you don’t really wear colored shadows, eyeliner is your “gateway” product. I love all colors but am partial to teal, the beautiful hue goes with many skin tones and eye colors as well. A teal lined eye is bright and fun while remaining very wearable. Simply put, it is pretty on everyone.
Teal eyeliner comes in a variety of forms… good old-fashioned pencil, liquid, gel and cream. Whatever formula you prefer is just fine to achieve this look. You’re not out of luck if you don’t own any of these because as long as you have a flat eyeshadow brush and teal shadow, you can substitute it instead of liner for a similar look.
Some of the many ways to wear teal eyeliner:
Upper lash line
Lower lash line/water line
Rim the entire eye
Pair with neutral eyeshadow (looks great with bronzes,beiges & taupes)
From low-key to dramatic, below are some examples of the many ways to wear this mermaid-chic look. Take note on how great this looks on all skin tones, eye shapes and colors.
Shop these eyeliners.
