Where Unique, Chic and Organized Meet
I really love lace. It has a romantic feel to it, and just looks inherently vintage to me (and I love vintage too). Lace is pretty big this season, and will likely be big well into spring next year. I found some great lacey pieces of clothing and other accessories that I am coveting in a big way, and might make my own... Lace Trench Coat? Why Not. BCBG has an absolute AMAZING assortment of … [Read more...]
The fabulous Roo of Nice Girl Notes (@nicegirlnotes) has a blog hop going on right now where you tell everyone what's in your purse. I couldn't beat the chance to share a purse, and check out other purses. I am the ultimate bag lady. I recently got the Big Buddha Handbag, Lux Satchel in Brown. I love having the purse separating in the middle to make 2 different pockets. Of course there are a … [Read more...]
Today I decided to indulge myself here and give myself (and you) a little eye candy. I'm going to share with you the bags I am loving coveting right now. I've been wanting a really nice cross body bag that would be great for long days out for the essentials. The Marley ($120) by La Diva fits the bill perfectly. Of course it has a red option, which is always a bonus for me Then of course I … [Read more...]
How many times have you worn those terribly uncomfortable shoes to an event, and mid-way through had no shoes on at all? Foldflops (@Foldflops) is the answer to this problem. They are flip flops that fold in half for the on-the-go emergency, or just save space in your bag. I've tried many of the foldable take-with-you-shoes, and they are all great in a pinch, but they are very flat, which make … [Read more...]
This last weekend I was in H&M and I had these great black tights in my hand that had cut outs in a beautiful pattern. Then when I was in a different area they had a bin of patterned tights; one had big huge roses and the other was leopard print. I wound up buying those two, and am in love. This fall colored and patterned tights for women are all the rage. I'm so obsessed with tights now … [Read more...]
I thought I'd share with all of you my latest purse obsession for fall. I'm in love with the Satchels that have pockets on the outside. This fall they are everywhere, and I love that they have tons of pockets and buckles on the outside. I love pockets. Since my budget is a huge concern this fall, found tons of great options for under $50. Canvas bag with leather detailing … [Read more...]
I don't know about you, but I love recycling my wardrobe. I guess I'm weird (and frugal) like that. When done right, you can spruce up your closet with a few key pieces and accessories, and everyone will think you splurged on a shopping spree. So what's on the hit list for fall? Here are my top items: BOOTS!, 60's inspired fashion (think Mad Men), chunky jewelry, Native American inspired … [Read more...]
When I was at Fashion Night Out ("FNO") 2 weeks ago I was introduced to an amazing jewelry store called Kendra Scott. This store takes creating your own jewelry to a whole other level. Walking in there was much like arriving at Disneyland, you are in awe. The pure artistry in the jewelry they have is hard to describe. That night Ellie (@teasandsweets), Romy (@romyraves) and I arrived at the … [Read more...]
When back-to-school season comes around I am on the hunt for a new backpack, or lunch bag, or both. Schoolbags For Kids is more than just a bag though, it's a backpack with purpose. My love for a good/beautiful bag extends to the bags my children carry. No I'm not shallow, I just want them to have sturdy well organized bags for school. Imagine my delight when I met the fantastic Schoolbags For … [Read more...]
I went to the Big Toy Event at BlogHer this year and immediately went to this table with these bracelets by Shains. They were customizeable with little buttons. Once I was done with my bracelet, I got their card immediately. I put my twitter handle on mine even though they didn't have the @ sign, and wore it all weekend. Shains (@shainsware) are made of recycled and recyclable parts. They … [Read more...]
