Like most women, I love shoes. In fact, I’ve devoted many posts to my love of heels. However, my feet seemed to be conspiring against me when a year ago they randomly grew a half size. Not only did I no longer fit into about 1/2 the pairs of shoes in my closet (believe me, [...]

Quest for the perfect black bag
Every woman should have a classic handbag. I have many handbags, but I’m still in need of the perfect black/dark handbag. I’ve been searching high and low – using Google, that is – and I’ve identified some favorites. I’ve listed them out from the least to most expensive just in case that helps narrow down [...]

High Heels = Infertility and Schizophrenia?
If so then I’m in big, big trouble. Today, Leonora Epstein at the Frisky posted about the health hazards associated with wearing high heels. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, high heels cause infertility and schizophrenia. Not the best side effects, no?

My Shopaholic’s Daily Calendar had some great advice for me today from none other than Mr. Valentino Garavani himself. When in doubt, wear red. Red is very passionate and sexy. Men go wild for it, and a red with a little bit of orange in it is good on any skin tone.” Sadly, with the [...]

A little slice of heaven
My friend recently started working at Saks (on 5th Avenue, of course) so I’ve tried to learn a bit more information about the history of the company. Did you know… During the summer of 2007, Saks Fifth Avenue flagship store in NYC opened its new shoe floor. The floor was every girl’s dream – literally [...]

Style File: Weekend Looks
I’m always looking for a cute, casual weekend outfit. This outfit is adorable but I know it would look horrid on me. Why is it that you can put anything (maybe even a sack) on a model and they look awesome…grr! So here’s my inspiration: (Image courtesy of garancedore)

A Little Self Control, Please!
Today was a busy, stressful day. Some people eat when they are stressed – apparently I shop (online). Among the plethora of online shopping sites, Gilt Group has quickly become my favorite. The ladies of Wit & Whimsy definitely described it best earlier this year: Gilt Groupe provides access, by invitation only, to Men’s, Women’s and Children’s [...]

Blog Love: Garance Doré
My sister, Alise, uncovered this amazing site called Garance Doré. The blog was created in 2006 by an illustrator obsessed with fashion. She travels and captures “street shots” of wearable fashion, typically near/at fashion shows. I love reading her posts and looking at the photos, which are incredible. Take one look at the site and I [...]
