My fave look is back for Spring!

2011-04-14T23:17:00.002-05:00

Those of you who know me know I love a long skirt. I am loving the look paired with a leather jacket which makes it much less boho don't you think? I adore the femininity of the floral maxi with a dark leather jacket which toughens it up a bit.

You can spot me sporting this look all spring!

Current Obsession

2011-04-14T22:57:00.000-05:00

In LUST with this look right now. I know it's not very fun for spring, but this leather bodice look is so chic and can we say SEXY? I will be on the hunt for a reasonably priced one and keep you posted!

Fat Fish Sushi

2011-04-09T00:30:00.001-05:00

FAT is definitely how I feel after gorging myself with happy hour sushi. Where is Bethanny Frankel when you need her? I think I need a personal mentor to escort me to dinner sometimes! Although I may find it difficult to have self control, I still recommend this spot. The sushi snob that I am enjoyed the choices (I am NOT a fan of the imitation crab though). From the firecracker roll to the cilantro hand roll, I would definitely go back. Everyday from 6-8 is half off rolls and hand rolls. Please proceed with caution.
I donned my wide leg Genetics with platform booties, an oversized 291 Venice tee, a blue and plum colored flannel with a vintage lapis necklace and my new Linea Pelle bag.

My favorite local jewelry designers, T.Cyia are making some RIDIC statement necklaces! This agate piece is one of many they are making this season and come in all lengths. Known for their fab stones and layered chains, T.Cyia is taking off!

I am also loving this pyrite and snake bracelet for under $200

YIGAL YIGAL YIGAL!!!
A celeb favorite, including the likes of Kristin Stewart and Whitney Port and a haul-o-plenty on the set of GOSSIP GIRL, Israeli Designer Yigal Azrouel is known not only for his impeccable detail and fine leathers, but for perfecting the modern, yet feminine silhouette. I am loving this leather jacket on sale at ARCADE Boutique. I prefer the white, but comes in black as well for those less daring!

"PYTHON...SO HOT RIGHT NOW...PYTHON"

2010-08-12T23:15:00.001-05:00

I have always been a fan of skins...Snake, in particular because I have an absurd fear of them, but croc, alligator, lizard, you name it and I'll wear it. Exotic skins, unlike most bags are timeless in my opinion. Yes, they may be "in" at one time or another but I wear them year round, every year. I'm DYING over this CC SKYE Black Python messenger bag. The only thing thats missing is a fab lining in a bold hue!!!
Only $595 at http://www.revolveclothing.com..WHAT.A.STEAL.

Rocking the bold brow, Mrs. Posh Beckham graces the May cover of German Vogue. I have to say I am DYING over the dramatic dark brow. What do you think? Opinions please....

Get the look: If you're really daring, pencil it in with a dark pencil or liquid liner, but for a more subtle look go for Brows a Go-Go by Benefit www.benefitcosmetics.com

Scar Jo for MANGO

2010-04-17T10:27:00.001-05:00

Scarlett Johansson goes au naturale for the Summer 2010 Collection of MANGO. She says goodbye to sexy to show a warmer seduction for the Barcelona based clothing line. The collection ranges from flirty florals with an innocent feel, to simple and sophisticated. Unfortunately there is not much in between.

Spring Lips

2010-04-17T10:05:00.004-05:00

Hottest lips for the season are ranging from fire engine red to as flesh-toned as possible. Personally, I cannot pull off the orange/reds but ADORE it on those who can. Try MAC Matte lipstick in Russian Red or Underworld for a little more of a burgundy look. If that is too much for you I like Film Noir for a more berry feel. www.maccosmetics.com

For Nude lips I like to line with Sephora brand Nano lip liner in Native Nude, fill it in and top with Nars Belle Du Jour. For a better price, Sephora has a lovely color called Luxury Beige 23 for only $6

www.sephora.com

To add a splash of color to a nude lip, line with a nude lip pencil then top with a fun pink gloss like Pout by Smashbox. www.ulta.com
