Another great read from the AGS Shelf

2011-12-23T20:11:00.000-08:00

I just picked up a book on my quest to communicate better with a friend, and it is a great read so far. It's from the self-help section of my library.

I have been trying to explain to a girlfriend methods of release, self-worth, acceptance, etc. I haven't been very successful in my opinion, as it has lead her to think I mean being submissive and wearing pink 24/7. Enter, Gabrielle Bernstein and her book, "Spirit Junkie". The heavens opened up as I started reading. This is it , this is the book that will perfectly communicate what I couldn't bring across (I hope).

"Spirit Junkie", Gabrielle Bernstein

Former New York Publicist turned author/motivational speaker, Gabrielle Bernstein, has been dubbed the new "Carrie Bradshaw" of this next generation of 30-somethings. She has practiced the Course in Miracles Program, and her book was received with great reviews by the New York Times, Elle Magazine and others. The book includes a forward by Marianne Williamson.

This is the read for you if you think you are seeking happiness and inspiration in all the wrong places: in relationships, your career, money, shoes, drinks, drugs and/or night clubs. It's one New Yorker's story of how she now finds true happiness.

Definitely a permanent fixture in my library for whenever I need to get the point across again.

Feather Earrings still hot and going...

2011-12-23T15:21:00.000-08:00

Feather earrings are still a strong trend and raging. It seems to have picked up even more hotness when these lovelies were seen on Taylor Armstrong, Real Housewife of Beverly Hills (RHOBH). I myself had a hard time paying attention as I kept eyeing the earrings. Wishlist!

Celebrities like Blake Lively, Gwenyth Paltrow, Lauren Conrad, and Drew Barrymore have also been seen in feather earrings. I have looked for some beautiful options. Click on the picture to find out more about these earrings.

Mini Feather Earrings by Serefina.

Elegant and delicate mini feathers on a 14K gold fill french hook. Simple and luxurious.

Beige Swinging Feather Earring

Exotica Earrings by Serefina

Rare assortment of wild feathers with genuine semi-precious stone beads. Every pair is a one-of-a-kind, every pair is always a little different.

Feather Pearl and Rhinestone Dangle Earrings

Gold Filigree Feather Drops

Serefina Peacock Tail Feather Earrings

The Peacock Tail Feather Earrings are fantastic. Opulent peacock feathers with white gold hooks are paired with vintage chains.

Deco Feather Drop Earrings

Antique gold tone art deco style drop earrings with grey tone swing feathers screams elegant yet exotic vintage. A nice armband would go nicely with these too.

Disney Couture Gold plated hook earrings

If you are into Disney Couture take a look at these gold plated hook earrings featuring small dream catcher charmand, two dangling gold plated feathers, and two feathers.

Many of the retailers featuring these earrings also have others to choose some, so browse for your inspiration and wear it!

Beautiful Frieling French Coffee Press

2011-12-22T19:00:00.000-08:00

I have just been converted to a Frieling French Press. I don't think I will use anything else from now on. The glass presses have never appealed to me, and I left my coffeemakers in the Midwest. Having more than one coffeemaker (3), I refuse to buy yet another one here in Los Angeles (again).

I have been drinking instant at home for a year until today.

My friend, Bob, came over for a quick trip to South Pasadena for some grocery shopping at Trader Joe's and a pit stop at Buster's Coffee just down the street. It really felt like a Saturday without the crowd.

However, we planned to meet for breakfast at my house first. She whipped out a bag of Starbucks for me and her French press. I, immediately attracted to shiny bright object asked, "What's that?". "A French press." "Huh?"....the rest was history.

Needless to say, her press is in my kitchen tonight, while I wait for mine to arrive from Amazon.

I needed to look at no other presses (ok, I did quickly), and settled on hers hands down. It's a beautiful battleship of 18/10 shiny stainless steel. The user- reviews are in the hundreds for the brand.

I highly recommend you get yourself one if you are a party of one or two, like brewed coffee without cleaning out the big clunker, like to have immediate access to it, want more counter space, are tired of breaking your glass presses, etc. You get the point.

Marriage made in heaven

Happy Thursday! XO

2011-12-21T16:11:00.000-08:00

Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas, solo artist, and Avon spokesperson was awarded the Women's Wear Daily 2011 Product of the Year award for her perfume, Outspoken. Congratulations from the AGS Blog!

In celebration and support, I am posting great Fergie finds for her fans.

Stylist Robert Verdi and Fergie pose at the launch of OUTSPOKEN, Fergie's new fragrance with Avon at the Prudential Center on August 4, 2010 in Newark, New Jersey. (August 3, 2010 - Photo by Larry Busacca/Getty Images North America and Zimbio.com)

Your show-stopping style is sure to cause a commotion in these sexy Fergie Ruckus boots. Hurry and save, before they sell out on this boot.

Do you like Fergie's fashion style? Well here are a few finds by some of her favorite brands.

Fluxus Drape Vest in Black - The hottest celebs can be seen wearing Fluxus tees, tanks and dresses. Celeb fans include Leighton Meester, Fergie, Rihanna and Nicole Richie. The Drape Vest by Fluxus will jazz up any boring outfit! Looks great with a tank, tee or longsleeve shirt. Drape vest can be tied or let the string hang down for an edgy look. As seen here on Audrina Patridge. Shop Fluxus. You'll see why Fergie is a huge fan of the line.

Spirit Hoods Wolf Full Hood - Those with a wolf spirit are fiercely loyal creatures. They are team players and work well in groups. The wolf is a social animal and a great communicator, often teaching those around it. Fergie and Kesha are often seen in theirs. As seen here on Kesha in Paper Magazine.

CC Skye Triple Cobra Bracelets - Simply stunning in any color combo! This bracelet has three intertwined metal bangles that make a dramatic statement. As Seen On: Fergie and Gwen Stefani.

Every great fan should own her best, or if you are just discovering her this is what you will want to get a hold of for your reading and music pleasure.

Naysayers may view Fergie as of the token girl in the Black Eyed Peas, but with her solo debut The Dutchess, the gal born Stacy Ferguson erases any doubt about her musical chops. Although Peas bandmate will.i.am co-produced 8 of the album's 13 tracks, Fergie co-wrote and co-produced much of the disc, ensuring that she's not just posing in front of a mic. And like fellow Californian Gwen Stefani, Fergie has a malleable enough singing style to be effective in myriad genres... Dave Gil de Rubio.

The Black Eyed Peas Fan this is your ultimate resource for the talented The Black Eyed Peas. Here you'll find the most up-to-date information, photos, and much more.

Plaid and Prep Inspired

2011-12-18T21:52:00.000-08:00

Every time the holidays role in I think plaid, which I associate with prep. Plaids and prep however, go way beyond the plaid holidays. It's a lifestyle whether contemporary or conservative.

Try a preppy, single color eye shadow for show stopping effects.

A fun sneaker for the plaid at heart.

Accessorize with this L. Erickson preppy peony ponytail holder.

Preppy chic woven dress

Great woody scent of honeysuckle by Vera Wang. Stylish and sophisticated while youthful.

JET by John Eshaya is a favorite among the hottest celebrities and fashionistas. Mad for plaid? The Preppy Plaid Button Down Shirt by JET looks great with a skirt, shorts or jeans. Plaid print in blue and white combo, also available in pink.

There is nothing hum drum about this Steve Madden prep style.

And how perfect would these Vince Camuto be with a pleated skirt and leggings! These oxfords give you preppy style with a saucy edge.

Vintage Golden Days Maxi Skirt - This is not your mother's maxi skirt, or was it?

I love these knee hi plaid heart socks. They remind me of ex-playmate, Holly Madison.

Feminine, plaid newsboy hat. Pair with white shirt, jeans, and chunky sweater.

I am really like Elaine Turner basket-weave clutches. Very classy, but playful.

Butter off the shoulder soccer club top. Very sexy modern pullover with a preppy logo.

Poster Find of the Week

2011-12-16T23:21:00.000-08:00

Muhammad Ali, at the gym. My inspirational poster find this week. I love coming across cool posters, and they're much better when they offer inspiration.

What are you reading?

2011-12-16T20:49:00.000-08:00

The chilly weather makes me want to curl up on the couch with a good book and a nice cup of coffee or tea. I usually love books recommended to me by other readers. I would love to know what books you are currently reading or have recently read. Your recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Interim, these books have caught my attention.

Not because I'm a reality junkie...Bethenny Frankel really puts it out there with this book. She takes us from her dysfunctional upbringing to her empowering journey through dating and her career. This book is very helpful and can be considered a low cost therapy self-help session via Bethenny Fankel. I commend her for reaching out with her story while living on high street. Not many would and do. Of course add in her humor and sarcasm and you can hear Bethenny speaking to you.

Tina Fey, Tina Fey! This book is funny and motivational. Her inspiring words and opinions have me laughing. She puts it all out there too, and sums it all up in this book. This book is a much lighter read than Bethenny's book, but equally entertaining.

Stephanie Madoff Mack appeared in People Magazine this October. I was moved by her story. Bernie Madoff from the Ponzi Scheme Scandal, is her father-in-law. Mack’s story is heart-wrenching. She lived a privileged life, and then the unexpected happened. Her father-in-law confessed he had stolen billions of dollars from his clients. Let down by his father, Mack’s husband, Mark Madoff, took his own life, while his infant son was in the next room. Stephanie Madoff Mack recounts her side of the story. Very Karmic; it's eerie and touching.

My interests lie within reality, humor, and biographies if you can tell. I would suggest reading the latter first, and then the humorous books to leave you in a positive place.

Have you read these books? If so, what did you think? What books would you recommend I read next? The AGS Bookshelf wants to know!

Empire Waist for flattering Maternity Wear

2011-12-16T16:25:00.000-08:00

The empire waist is flattering to pear shapes and A-line silhouettes, wishing to disguise the stomach area or emphasise the bust. The shape of the dress also helps to lengthen the body's appearance. Here are some classic designs in dresses and blouses, I found today.

I'm seriously loving this short sleeved tunic priced at only $26.99! I love the color and print which is very versatile and fits almost everyone. Very comfortable yet a splash of vibrant color.

Once again, loving the print on this dress. Very youthful appearance for a woman of any age. Comfortable due to the open neck and sleeveless style. Great for the office and Sunday family outings. Don't forget your little black cardigan and clutch.

Another great color option and sleeveless. Get ready for Spring and Summer with this cool dress. Flexible and you can dress it up or down in a summer heel or flip flops.

Another great versatile dress due to the color. Great for the office or lunch. Dress it up with pumps or wedges as shown. Add a cardigan, chain purse, brown or natural white cardigan.

Cowl neck stretch fabric tunic. Pair with a pair of great leggings.

Long sleeve cowl neck tunic. Great for weather like today.

What a great nursing gown. It looks like a summer dress. I was surprised once or twice with well-meaning unexpected visitors when I had my baby. Throw on a sweater or tube bra and your set to receive those pesky but well-meaning visitors.

Here is a nursing gown and robe combo set. Great length and generous amount of fabric to give it a very comfortable look and feel.

Liquid By Nell Couture Sleeveless Empire Seam Maternity Maxi Dress. Everyone should have a couple of maxi dresses. They're so comfortable and lengthen your body.

Now how fab is this jumpsuit?

Who says you can't be pretty in pink?

I'm loving this number for the holidays. Jewel tone, print, and shimmering dazzle.

How about a Donna Morgan print dress?

Definitely digging this empire strapless Loveappella tie-dye Maxi Dress.

I seriously think tunics are the way to go for comfort.

And finally, we all need a great cardigan like this one by Splendid, to pair with a white top and our favorite pair of jeans to stay comfy and chic.

Holiday vintage dresses meets seasonal trends

2011-12-14T12:29:00.000-08:00

I am obsessed with so many pretty dresses to choose from this season. It's all about the sparkle, jewel tones, metallics, and mixing rich textures. Think bling, vintage, and color, color, color!

1960's -Make this dress one for the photo albums.

You spend your days dreaming about what you'll be wearing at night! Picture yourself fulfilling your fashion fantasy by donning this fully lined, metallic teal dress, which features a single shoulder topped with a gorgeous, black, satin bow.

While its narrow straps allow you to focus on the foxtrot, this radiant retro design will delight any charming character who asks to cut in. For an elegant ensemble that will draw a simultaneous swoon from the other guests, pair this vintage dress with lush, green pumps, a velvety clutch, and a classic comb for your hair.

Beneath the mirrored ball, you've got the fab factor down pat in this shimmering golden dress from Moon Collection. With its tight pleats that move with your groovin', comfortably flexible waist, and fully lined interior, this frock gleams gloriously with more than a little bit of glamour. In your new dress, onyx tights, and zippered ankle boots, you're the perfect disco diva!

Don't worry about attracting a guy with the last name Goulia, wear this specctacular satin and lace straight out of the 80's dress and you'll catch a 'hart'breaker in no time!

Hello Kitty shopping

2011-12-14T10:50:00.001-08:00

I love Hello Kitty, so I decided to do some random Hello Kitty shopping this morning. I do this from time to time because I am fascinated by all the cool merchandise Sanrio puts out now. Here is what I found.

"Hello Kitty" Best Friends' Cheques - This Hello Kitty Best Friends' Cheques - book has thirty printed cheques and six blank cheques for personal promises. Just sign on the dotted line!

PC Hello Kitty Case for iPad 2 (White) - This protective case can protect your iPad from scratches, bumps, damage, and dust.

Hello Kitty Crystal Back Cover/ Skin Case for Apple iPhone 3G/3GS - Light and durable hard case cover protect your Apple iPhone 3G/3GS from dust. scratching and shock. There were cool retro and modern 4G designs too.

Hello Kitty Design Retractable In-ear Earphone (White) - The Hello Kitty Design Retractable In-ear Earphones. It isn't only used for listening to the music, but also used as an accessory.

Need some car fragrance while driving safely? Plush Hello Kitty Fragrance Car Vehicle Safety Belt Buckle (White). Car vehicle safety belt buckle locks your seat belt to add safety and moves freely at the same time.

So far it seems everything that caught my attention today is more for school and office. It must be time to update my business look with these sweet finds. Hello Kitty perhaps is influencing the business side of the brain?

Velvet dresses for the holidays...2011 Trend

2011-12-13T23:42:00.000-08:00

Velvet dresses come and go out of fashion. Personally, I love that they're back this Fall and Winter. This is really the only season in which you can wear them.

Looking for ideas for your parties? Check out these lovely dresses. Now is the time to rock your velvet dress. Channel your favorite time period, whether it's vintage, 80's (think Prince), or grunge a la Courtney Love.

3/4 Belted Sleeve Maternity Dress

If you can, I say rock it, momma!

"Take my hand; take my whole life too. For I can't help falling in love with you." Straight cut dress, circa 1980s by Ann Taylor.

Looking for the right pair of shoes to go with your velvet attire? Try these Badgley Mischka Women's Dylan on for size.

You're always breaking the rules and redefining the norm with your fearless fashion, but by parading this black dress out with velvet pumps, a fitted blazer, and a patent clutch, you single-handedly reinvent the chic staple from being the Little Black Dress to the Little Bandage Dress. Cut in a demure off-the-shoulders shape and encircled at the neckline, bodice, and bottom hem by glittering metallic bands, this notable knit number elicits oohs and ahhs whenever you model it, making it the new gold standard in evening-out attire.

Definitely a favorite of mine!..If it isn't broke, don't fix it - that theory is why you've always stuck to your tried and true, basic LBD. But the discovery of this stunning dress in midnight black made you second guess your trusted motto. Sure, it seems similar to your go-to party dress, but the superbly slinky fit of the black velvet body, the alluring coy scoop neck, and the delightful billow of the floaty, sheer sleeves made you realize that there was no going back to your old, boring staple. Now, pairing this beauty with patterned stockings, red platforms, and a vibrant bloom pinned in your hair, you show the world that a little variety can add some much-needed spice into your life.

Although it means you'll have to wait to open your own, you've been assigned the very special duty of distributing gifts! You anticipate conquering the important task when you buy this 80s-inspired, burgundy velour dress with cap-flapped long sleeves. Its form fitting shape and sloped open back make it festive enough to wear to hip and hoppin' parties but conservative enough to don while celebrating the seasons with family. Its smooth, velvety texture reminds you of matching dresses that you and your cousins used to wear back in the day and you giggle thinking about it. Try wearing with solid creme leggings, charcoal, Oxford-style heels, pretty pewter earrings, and an elegant updo for a versatile look that will wear well throughout this season of gift-laden gatherings!

Maternity Wear

Now who says a girl in waiting can't look sexy?

You’ll make a flawless first impression when you’re introduced in this elegant vintage dress! A vision in classic black velvet, this dress boasts a tulle-tufted skirt and a sophisticated sheer back adorned with a row of rhinestone-encrusted buttons, which are punctuated by a duo of dark bows. Get together your favorite pair of pumps, a silvery, sparkling clutch, a set of drop earrings, and this soft, swanky dress to captivate a new circle of friends. Who will make your acquaintance this evening? Who ‘bows’ until you arrive!

Velvet dress, circa 1970s - Now is this beauty a classic or what? Great dress for an office or dinner party.

There are plenty of chic, vintage, and modern dresses that will have you looking lovely and luxe. So while we're waiting for temperatures to drop, we can't help but fall for velvet all over again.

Would you wear it, let us know!

The brand offers uniquely designed footwear for the fashionista seeking affordable luxury and is individually designed footwear and accessories for every occasion.

Enjoy Free Returns at Dune.co.uk

Over 40 UK stores, an international website and supplies Selfridges, John Lewis, House of Fraser, Debenhams and ASOS among others.

Here are four classic styles that I picked tonight from Dune UK. Two heels and two boots. Sometimes we just need to get away from black, so I made only one choice in black. Click on each shoe to learn more about the pair.

Love these! So classic, yet feminine. Not all classic has to be black.

Indulge in some equestrian chic with this classic riding boot with zip. This one is perfect for wearing with a smart blazer and neck tie and dark denim jeans this season.

Sometimes we need to brighten up our footwear in this round toe slingback . Perfect for nights out in a LBD or a stunning dress.

Here is another boot option. We all need black and brown boots right?

HAPPY SHOPPING!

Fall 2011 Finds According to Color

2011-11-17T15:39:00.001-08:00

This Fall 2011 and year feature a mix of bold with neutral palettes. Colors including Pantone's are teal, purples, golden, tan, browns, and grays. All very beautiful and more so when taken further with depth color ranges and metallic. The jewel-tone colors add such a great, unexpected punch to an otherwise neutral palette.

The colors are everywhere and I find this mix to be one of the best palettes put together yet. It is a palette that fits almost anything and anyone. Although, the palette is well-fused, each color commands it's own attention and respect.

After the Rain Bracelet, Stella & Dot

The very first item I thought about was my After the Rain Bracelet from Stella & Dot. It's such a gorgeous piece with it's rich, smoky palette of faceted stones each antiqued and individually distressed by hand that creates the illusion of jewels left out in the rain. The hand wrapped chain adds an extra detail to the bracelet.

Books also follow trends when it comes to fashion and trend. Take for example the following book by Lauren Oliver, "Before I Fall". You see the green, golden bamboo, and honeysuckle colors following the Pantone 2011 palette.

Or what about "Whatever!", an interactive journal between parents and children.

Not all interpretation is visual. Arpege by Lanvin uses a honeysuckle floral scent.

SALE:

Arpege by Lanvin for Women - 2 Pc Gift Set 1.7oz EDP Spray and Gold plated two leaves pendant inlaid with crystal stones

A Fine Education Cardigan

Your afternoons spent studying in the frigid library and the late nights you've spent cramming away in your room have left you well educated, to be sure, but often chilly and longing for a bit of home.

Keep an open mind, and this sweater dress will have you seeing fashion from a different perspective. Deceptively simple, this 1960s-inspired sack dress features a unique, oblique cut that curves out on.

Look around and tell me what you see.

New Look in the Bedroom

2011-11-17T13:08:00.001-08:00

I am contemplating a new bedroom look for this coming year. My walls are an elephant gray with white trim, and I really don't feel like repainting just yet. I am definitely going to change the floors to all wood early spring. In the meantime, I figured a new duvet is quite the harmless update with quite a lot of power.

Duvets sets are the best things invented to bedding when it comes to storage and affordability. So here are my choices so far, and some may require re-painting. Meh. I figure I can go very monochromatic with a simple gray, but I want to consider some prints and color as well.

Coconut Grove Embroidered Floral Bed Linen: A beautiful bed of embroidered and appliqued stylized flowers and leaves in striking cobalt blue on a crisp white with a blue cover stitch detail. I am really in love with the casual intricacy of this piece.

I've never been a huge fan of yellows, but I am of greens and neutrals. This leads me to my next pic which is a bit more modern with understated color. Naturally, the gray would have to go for the Echo Abstract Palm Duvet which is tan with Cress Green.

Speaking of green, but for a completely different turn on things, I am kind of digging on this updated '70s look. I like the colors and the updated flower power.

Then again, all color aside, there is always the beautiful and ethereal Hotel look. I love this look. Hey, I love traveling when I can, and the hotel look would suit me just fine at home. If I'm dreaming, don't pinch me. Imagine losing yourself in abundant clean white cotton sheets and comforter with fluffy pillows. Very peaceful.

My choices are definitely not set in stone yet, and as you can see, I am a bit everywhere. Which would you choose? Would you choose any of these? With so many choices, it gets overwhelming. The beauty of duvets, is that you can change them out or mix and match with solid colored sheets and pillows and other prints.
