New collections!

Hello Fashionistas!

Even though the economy is currently in rubbles and most of us are skipping lunch to afford our designer labels, there is something to be excited about- new (lower cost) summer and fall collections!

We have all felt the strain of the purse strings, so it is amazing that some of our favorite designers have created new lines with lower priced essentials that will make buying this season much more manageable.

Nanette Lepore, Betsey Johnson, Chloe, and Ella Moss are all offering some of their favorites are lower than usual prices. That means we need to grab them before they're gone!!

Bergdorf Goodman is offering 25-50% off selected designer prices. Bluefly.com is currently having a 70% off discount for Nicole Miller, Free People, Theory, BCBG , Prada.

Ladies, let's not let these sales fly by! Take advantage today!

A Shopping Fantasy in Cali.

Hello Fashionistas!

Ok, I'll admit it. I am a bit of a shopaholic. I love labels. But the truth of the matter is I can't always afford the labels I love. That is why I LOVE outlets. Not just any outlet though. I've been to my fair share of mediocre outlets. I have to say, out of all I've been to so far nothing compares to "Carlsbad Premium Outlets" located in no other than Carlsbad, CA. It's just north of Oceanside. I live in Belmont Shore so it does feel like I have to drive all the way to Mexico to get there but it is worth the day trip. The outlets there include BCBG (my fav!), Barney's, Coach, Dooney & Bourke and LancĂ´me. It is seriously a shopper’s heaven. When you are ready to take a short day trip that's worth the bucks you'll save, go to Carlsbad. You won't be disappointed!

The No-Toe Hose

Hello Fashionistas,

Being a native California girl I have been to my share of events here on the west coast. It wasn't until I married a New Yorker that I started also attending events in New York on a fairly regular basis. I'm speaking primarily about weddings. Being in our early thirties we have, on average, attended 2 to 5 weddings per year. That being said, it is hard not to compare the differences between the New York and California dress code. In California a girl can "get away" with adding her favorite pair of Jimmy Choo heels to what would otherwise be a nice sundress and she is set. In California I never even owned a pair of pantyhose. There was never a need. Last February my husband and I traveled back east for a black-tie wedding that was truly a gala. I bought a short black-tie worthy dress and shoes that happened to also be open-toe. There was no way I could not wear pantyhose to a black-tie event not to mention the fact that it was freezing in February. I mulled over this for sometime and considered getting closed-toe heels to fix the dilemma of exposed pantyhose seams on my toes. Then my girlfriend recommended Donna Karan's 'The Nudes' Toeless Hosiery (which also have a control top, really who can't use that?). They are amazing! I am now a believer in pantyhose. They are so sheer they look like you're not wearing anything but your own great tone. A few girls even commented on how great my legs looked and couldn't wait to get them as well. Seriously ladies, if you must wear hose with open toes you must get those!
