<p>The day has finally arrived -- <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/6663/Fall_Fashion_Preview_Anna_Sui_at_Target_Jimmy_Choo_at_H_M" target="_self"><strong>Jimmy Choo's line for H&M</strong></a> hits the stores today.</p>
<p>I'm trying to decide if I should just buy some items now for post-pregnancy because there is no way my piggie feet are fitting into any of those shoes at the moment. And there are clothes and accessories, too -- at H&M prices...not traditional Jimmy Choo (I can't afford them) prices.</p><p><img class="userImageLeft" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1258129108_med.jpg?imageId=17195900" border="0" alt="jimmy choo" width="209" height="261" /><img class="userImageRight" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1258129132_med.jpg?imageId=17195906" border="0" alt="jimmy choo" width="209" height="258" /></p>

<p>I kind of want all the items featured here. Prices start at $24.95 and go up to $299 and for Jimmy Choo, where prices can go into the thousands of dollars, this is really good.</p>

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>During the summer, I bought a really cute tankini bathing suit from <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/5576/Norma_Kamali_for_Walmart" target="_blank"><strong>Norma Kamali's line</strong></a> sold at <strong>Walmart</strong>. And last weekend, I hung out with my sister who bought <a href="http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10765728" target="_blank">Norma Kamali's Bat Wing Cardigan</a> for just $18.</p>
<p>I want!</p><p>You really cannot beat that price either. Even though it's a cotton-blend jersey material, you can wear this with just about anything, dress it up or down, even wear it during pregnancy.</p>
<p>I love the length and it comes in cobalt blue, black, brown, milk, pink, and heather grey -- see all <a href="http://www.walmart.com/browse/Women/Norma-Kamali/_/N-3y21Z1yzp4wqZaq90Zaqce/Ne-aq6s?ic=48_0&ref=181605.184105+500500.4292591642&tab_value=1205_All&catNavId=1025819&fromPageCatId=1025819&catNavId=1025819" target="_blank">Norma Kamali for Walmart</a> clothes here. </p>
<p>OK, now the key is for me to just purchase the cardigan and not go overboard and buy more.</p>
<p><strong>Don't you love it when designers do special lines at reduced prices? Who would you like to see design a less expensive line next?</strong></p>

      <title><![CDATA[Headbands Make Me Feel Cute]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="editorCaptionBox" style="float: left;"><img src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257977849_med.jpg?imageId=17176810" border="0" alt="headband" width="230" height="172" />

<p>I'm in love with <strong><a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/117/Project_Runway_Inspires_Feather_Headbands" target="_self">headbands</a> </strong>right now. I've been for a while, but since I've been pregnant and my rings no longer fit and long necklaces look odd against my belly, my favorite thing is to wear <strong>accessories in my hair</strong>.</p>
<p>I usually wear one on the weekend when I want to feel pretty -- it's an instant pick-me-up. And <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/home/LuminousMom" target="_self">LuminousMom</a> makes some really cute headbands and really great prices!</p><p>Sold on Etsy, LuminousMom -- aka Kristen -- makes an <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23177766" target="_blank">Ecofelt Flower Headband</a> ($12.50) in many color combinations. Love how the blue and white looks against her blonde hair.</p>
<div class="editorCaptionBox" style="float: right;"><img src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257978124_med.jpg?imageId=17176855" border="0" alt="flower headband" width="193" height="144" />
<p class="editorCaption">Photo by LuminousMom</p>
</div>
<p>Or you can also go with a solid color of your choice like this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23177766" target="_blank">Eco Felt and YoYo Flower</a> Headband ($12.50). I want this one!</p>
<p>Set on an elastic band, they are one size fits all and as Kristen says, can also be worn as a necklace, wrapped around your wrist, to secure a ponytail in place...and many other creative uses.</p>
<p>So pretty!</p>
<p><strong>What color or color combination would you buy?</strong></p>

We talk about what we should do to get our <strong>hair </strong>to look a certain way, but what about what we <em>shouldn't</em> do? You know, things to avoid so your hair isn't a frazzled and <strong>frizz </strong>ball mess like mine is right now. </span></p>
<p><span>Yeah, I need these tips. (And a haircut!)<br /></span></p><p>Avoid:</p>
<ul>
<li><span><strong>Too much silicone</strong>. Sounds like a good rule of thumb for plastic surgery, too! Yes, silicone products can smooth down the cuticle, making it appear smoother. However, using too much too often can cause build up, dryness, and brittle hair. Look for silicone replacements instead like bean tree and jojoba oil.<span>  <br /></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span><strong>Drying alcohols</strong>. There are two kinds of alcohols -- the one that makes you drunk, and....just kidding. Seriously though, there are fatty alcohols such as cetyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol, and stearyl alcohol that are good for the hair because they are natural and derived from coconut.<span>  </span>Bad alcohols are the stuff in hairsprays like isopropyl alcohol and denatured alcohol. They basically help the product to dry quickly and also end up drying out hair.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span> <strong>Too much protein</strong>. Protein is great for chemically altered hair, especially after a chemical treatment, but <span>t</span>oo much protein can cause an adverse affect...dry tresses that frizz out of control. </span></li>
</ul>
<p><span>Thanks again to Mahisha Dellinger, curly-haired expert and creator of the <a href="http://www.curls.biz/" target="_blank">CURLS organic hair collection</a>, who knows her stuff. </span></p>

<p>I think one of the most romantic things a guy can do is carve a heart into a tree with your initials in it. A friend carved <em>Will you marry me?</em> when he proposed to his now-wife. The city equivalent to this is of course carving words into wet cement. Sweet!</p>
<p>But since cement doesn't often make for good <strong>jewelry</strong> and wood does, I adore these <strong>wood</strong> <strong>bracelets</strong>. Plus, wood is just so pretty, especially birch.</p><p>Depending on the thickness of the cuff, these wood bracelets are $20 or $30 each from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/HasBeenBoutique" target="_blank">Has Been Boutique</a>. You can choose to have them lined with leather or faux leather and there are a few shades to choose from.</p>
<p>They also sell necklaces with birch pendants. I wish they made rings!</p>
<p><strong>Do you love them as much as me?</strong></p>

<p>Being <strong>eco-friendly</strong> can also mean carrying around a lot of extra stuff in your purse -- from tote bags to water bottles...and if you have a baby, the diaper bag can also be that catch-all.<span> <span><a href="http://www.idealbite.com/">Ideal Bite's</a> <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/mama">Mama Bite</a> </span>contributor Jennifer Orr has a solution!<br /></span></p>
<p><span>I thought I was being so green toting around all of the reusable things I need during the day in my <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/mama/archives/chasing-down-stylish-diaper-bag">eco-chic bag</a>. Then I caught a glimpse of myself in a store window: lumpy purse overflowing with <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/mama/archives/got-thirsty-kid-your-hands">bottles</a> and <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/mama/archives/wanna-get-creative-your-kids-lunch">snack containers</a>, and a few salvaged plastic bags dangling from the strap. I realized I looked more like a bag lady than stylish eco-mama.</span></p><p><span>This would not do. So first, I replaced the tangle-y plastic bags I used to wrap stuff that might spill with a couple of lightweight, super cute, reusable <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/tiplibrary/archives/byo-bag">nylon bags</a> that I can fold up neatly into a tiny carrying case.</span></p>
<p><span>Next, I downsized our heavy stainless-steel water bottles to <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/mama/archives/got-thirsty-kid-your-hands">kid-size ones</a> (10 ounces). And since my older daughter can drink from a <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/mama/archives/stranded-park-without-drop-drink">water fountain</a> (something she strangely relishes), I often just leave her bottle at home. </span></p>
<p><span>As for snack containers, I found some pocket-sized <a href="http://www.idealbite.com/mama/archives/want-smarter-way-pack-your-kids-cookies-and-carrot-sticks">pouches</a> that are easier to open than the bulky ones I was dragging around. <span> </span> <br /></span></p>
<p><span>Now my purse is much more manageable -- definitely more the look I was going for...more chic than shabby.</span></p>

      <title><![CDATA[Smell Like Pam Anderson]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img class="userImageCenter" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257799064_med.jpg?imageId=17150420" border="0" alt="pam anderson malibu perfume" width="291" height="255" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you could smell like <strong>Pam Anderson</strong>, would you?</p>
<p>That's a weird question. But I would imagine this beach babe would smell like a combination of coconut oil with a surf and sand vibe. And I'm right -- sort of. <a href="http://stylenews.peoplestylewatch.com/2009/11/06/pamela-anderson-launches-budget-friendly-signature-fragrance/" target="_blank">Pam just launched her first perfume line</a>, complete with a day and night scent.</p><p><span><strong>Malibu Blue</strong> </span><span>has hints of wild berries and white florals, and <strong>Malibu Pink</strong> combines sandalwood, caramel, and vanilla bourbon. Both sound like they would smell really good. Prices start at $39 and the line is found in drugstores. </span></p>
<p><span>"I am a drugstore whore," Pamela told <em>People</em> magazine. "I worship drugstores. You have to pull me out of them. My dream is for every woman to be able to go to her favorite drugstore and buy an affordable fragrance which will make her feel sexy." </span></p>
<p><span>Pam's perfumes are cruelty free, eco-friendly, and a portion of the proceeds go toward PETA.</span></p>
<p><span><strong>So now that you know the details, are you interested in Pam Anderson's fragrances?</strong><br /></span></p>

We all have different <strong>body types</strong>, but we don't see stores called Pear Shapes Shop Here or Busty Ladies Clothing Only -- there's one store and all the clothes are lumped in. Which can make it hard to find the right clothes.<br /></span></p>
<p><span>Sometimes it gives me a headache trying to find out. And if you are like me, and hate trying on clothes when shopping, it means lots of returns. </span></p>
<p><span><em>InStyle </em>magazine has a feature called </span><em><strong><a href="http://www.instyle.com/instyle/package/general/photos/0,,20257818_20314454_20687282,00.html?xid=cafemom-shop-shape" target="_blank">Shop Your Shape: Ten Outfits for Day or Night</a></strong></em><span><em><strong></strong></em> -- and they take some of that guess work out of the shopping equation.</span></p>
<p><span>That's good news!<br /></span></p><p><span>If you're busty, this look (above right) works well. <br /></span></p>
<p><span>Why? This tailored button-down shirt and blazer are specifically made to fit ample chests without looking sloppily oversize. Cuffed jeans and heels add extra polish.</span></p>
<p><span>
<div class="editorCaptionBox" style="float: right; width: 205px;"><a href="http://www.instyle.com/instyle/package/general/photos/0,,20257818_20314454_20687282,00.html?xid=cafemom-shop-shape" target="_blank"><img class="userImageRight" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257798767_med.jpg?imageId=17150359" border="0" alt="pear shaped clothing ideas" width="205" height="205" /></a>

If you're pear-shaped, this look (right) works well. <br /></span></p>
<p><span>Why? The trousers are cut roomier in the thighs. The jacket falls below the hips -- shorter, it would accentuate the behind; longer, it seems matronly.</span></p>

<p>It's down to the wire on <em><strong><a href="http://www.mylifetime.com/on-tv/shows/project-runway" target="_blank">Project Runway</a></strong></em>! Last week's episode started with five contestants and ended with the three who will be going on to compete at <strong>Bryant Park</strong>. <strong>NYC's Fashion Week</strong>!</p>
<p>If you haven't seen the episode yet, be warned...spoilers ahead!</p><p>The show begins with the five remaining designers going to The Getty museum in Los Angeles for inspiration.</p>
<p>We're down to Althea, Carol Hannah, Irina, Giordana, and the lone male, Christopher.</p>
<p>Althea and Irina, who are obviously no longer "friends" talk about each other and the camera pans to Althea being so busy looking at the other designers that she stabs her model with a pin when fitting her. I giggled.</p>
<p>The designers were all over the place this week, and once again, no one really wowed me. Except for guest judge Cindy Crawford -- she looks so good!</p>
<p>The fashion show begins...</p>
<ul>
<li>Althea's look is OK, Love the gold color. But Heidi called it a mess fest.</li>
<li>Carol Hannah's was eh. I loved the one shoulder braided strap and that's about it.</li>
<li>I didn't love Christopher's -- the top was OK...maybe. The judges liked the top, not the bottom. He cried...again! Oh Christopher.</li>
<li>Giordana's dress was the only one I liked. It was really pretty and I would wear it. Cindy said she would wear it, too.</li>
<li>Irina scraped the fur she had as part of her original design and went with a sort of drop waist flowing thing. I thought it was lame.</li>
</ul>
<p>Overall, I was underwhelmed...again.</p>
<p>Then each of the designers are asked why they should stay and to name two others who should go to Bryant Park with them. Sneaky judges! They all say their piece (I'll spare the details) and it's decision time.</p>
<p>Irina, Carol Hannah, and Althea are going to fashion week -- all girls!</p>
<p>Christopher and Giordana are out.</p>
<p>It's too bad -- I really loved Giordana's dress this week. And I liked her.</p>
<p><strong>What do you think of the three going on to Fashion Week? Do you think Christopher or Giordana deserved it more?<br /></strong></p>

I've gotten some great <strong>beauty tips and advice</strong> over the years from friends, family, and makeup artists. </span></p>
<p><span>One of my favorite tidbits was a trick on how to tame <strong>unruly</strong> <strong>eyebrows</strong>. If you take an eyebrow brush, spritz a tiny bit of hairspray on it, then brush your eyebrows, they will stay in place. A makeup artist told me that one.<br /> </span></p><p>Another trick I learned was to use <strong>eyeshadow under your eyes instead of liner.</strong> This is especially good if your eyes tear a lot and the liner could get smudged. Using the eyeshadow wand, you can add color under eyes and for some, it stays on longer and won't smear. I used to do this in high school and still do.</p>
<p>One of the best and most universal pieces of beauty advice is <strong>drinking lots of water</strong>. The benefits are not only good for our health, but our hair, skin, nails -- everything.</p>
<p><strong>What was the best piece of beauty advice you received? Share your tips!</strong></p>]]></description>

I did keep some of my more delicate chains draped over a mirror.</p>
<p>But my mom bought me this cute <strong>necklace stand </strong>and it's made my life easier. Well, easier when it comes to finding an untangled necklace.</p><p>You can also store bracelets here, too, but I have so many necklaces they took up all the room.</p>
<p><strong>How do you store your necklaces? </strong></p>

      <title><![CDATA[Weekly Want: Hooded Scarf]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="editorCaptionBox" style="float: right;"><img src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257456761_med.jpg?imageId=17111871" border="0" alt="hooded scarf" width="165" height="296" />
<p class="editorCaption">Photo from Urban Outfitters</p>
</div>
<p>There are tons of <strong><a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/860/How_To_Wear_a_Scarf" target="_blank">ways to wear a scarf</a></strong>, but a <strong>hooded scarf </strong>introduces a whole new look. I know they makes hooded scarves for kids, and why not make them for adults -- we lose our hats, too!<strong> </strong></p>
<p>I really love Urban Outfitters' <a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?itemdescription=true&itemCount=60&startValue=61&selectedProductColor=&sortby=&id=16987414&parentid=W_ACC_WHATSNEW&sortProperties=+subCategoryPosition,&navCount=39&navAction=poppushpush&color=&pushId=W_ACC_WHATSNEW&popId=WOMENS_WHATSNEW&prepushId=" target="_blank">2890 by Arne & Carlos Intarsia Hooded Scarf</a> ($48) -- kind of expensive though. Maybe it's because it's from Scandinavian designers? I love the print and the length. And it delicately drapes over your head.<strong><br /></strong></p>
<p>I also found these....</p><p>The <a title="knit hooded scarf" href="http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=441347&CategoryID=9278&PageID=9278*2*24*-1*-1*27&cm_mmc=ShopStyle-_-LINKSHARE-_-Crawl-_-Crawl&PartnerID=LINKSHARE&LinkshareID=J84DHJLQkR4-N6nJPJJNj_UpeEGO7zDDFA" target="_blank">Nobis "Debbie" Hooded Scarf</a> from Bloomingdale's is so adorable, but my gosh -- $90! I will learn how to knit this one first. But how cute!</p>
<p>Then there's American Apparel's version -- <a title="hooded scarf" href="http://store.americanapparel.net/rsa0505.html" target="_blank">Unisex Hooded Scarf</a> ($22), which is lighter than the two other chunky knits and considerably less expensive. It's got that Little Red Riding Hood appeal, don't you think?</p>

<p><strong>Kate Hudson</strong> has been at every <strong>Yankee baseball</strong> home game in the past few weeks (I think) and my brother-in-law seems to think she is<strong> Alex Rodriguez</strong>' good luck charm. <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/entertainment/5390/Kate_Hudson_is_Dating_A_Rod" target="_blank">Kate's been dating A-Rod</a> for a while now.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cafemom.com/group/33197/forums/read/9891439/Khloe_Kardashian_and_Lamar_Odom_getting_married" target="_blank"><strong>Khloe Kardashian</strong></a> just married <strong>LA Lakers</strong> basketball player <strong>Lamar Odom</strong>, and she's been spotted supporting her man courtside along with her sister <strong>Kim </strong>-- who is also dating a sporty guy -- <strong>Reggie Bush</strong> plays football for the New Orleans Saints. (My husband's team! I think Reggie is so cute!)</p>
<p>When cheering on their men, Kate and Khloe still manage to look stylish. Oh of course they do!</p><p>Kate, known for her hippie laid back looks, stays true to that at baseball games. Here she is in a plaid top, but is wearing some sparkly blue eyeshadow. She always looks so cute!</p>
<p>Khloe, always glamourous, is a bit more done up. Her white jacket looks great with her skin color (oh and daring...white after Labor Day -- but it is LA) and her makeup looks as if she was going out for the night with heavy eyeliner and lip glossed lips.</p>
<p><strong>Between Kate and Khloe, who looked better when cheering on their men?</strong></p>

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Am I allowed to hate on supermodels because they always look perfect? Yes, yes I am. But how cool is it that <strong>Carol Alt</strong> is willing to share some of her <strong>skin care secrets </strong>with us? OK Carol -- I can't hate...it's only love. And I love her new line of products!</p>
<p>Carol lives a raw food lifestyle -- everything is in its purest state. And she wanted beauty products that followed suit. So she developed a line of products called <a href="http://www.rawessentials.com/" target="_blank">RAW Essentials</a> that are free of chemicals and are great for your skin. </p>
<p>She's sharing some of her secrets with us that are proof that it's not just about <em>what</em> you do or use on and in your body, it's <em>how</em> you do it. Here are her tips to <strong>winterize your skin</strong> and keep a glow all year long.</p><p>From Carol:</p>
<ul>
<li><span>Eat extra helpings of nuts, oils, and avocados -- foods with essential fatty acids hydrate and nourish from the inside out.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span><span> </span>I am a big bath person -- a bath with <a href="http://beauty.hsn.com/raw-essentials-by-carol-alt-raw-lief-bath-booster_p-4731901_xp.aspx" target="_blank"><strong>RAW Essentials Raw-lief Bath Booster</strong></a> is amazing because it's detoxifying and hydrating at the same time.<span> </span>I also like to add a few drops of Raw Coconut Oil to the water or a light coating on my skin before getting in. I alternate the hot water with a few cold water splashes too to revitalize my skin and stimulate blood flow.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span>I place small glasses of water with a few drops of aromatherapy oils on the heaters throughout my house.<span> </span>It keeps the air gently humidified and smelling incredible during the winter months.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span>Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!<span> </span>I use <a href="http://www.rawessentials.com/raw-vitalize-anti-aging-night-face-cream.html" target="_blank"><strong>RAW Essentials Raw-vitalize Anti-Aging Night Face Cream</strong></a> both day and night. It has a creamy, rich formulation and in the winter my skin just loves it.<span> </span>In a pinch, I also use pure, cold-pressed Olive Oil directly on my skin.<span><br /></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span>Try not to pull or scrub skin too much in the winter -- it's dry and delicate, so the less you manipulate it the better.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Do you follow any of these tips? Have any others tips to add?</strong></p>

      <title><![CDATA[Flats! I Wear Them Now]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img class="userImageLeft" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257269551_med.jpg?imageId=17085890" border="0" alt="combat boots" width="223" height="295" />There was <span style="text-decoration: underline;">nothing</span> that was going to take my <strong>heels</strong> away from me. <em>Nothing</em>, I thought. Sure, the heels weren't always three-inches, but there was always a heel. Two inches were low to me.</p>
<p>Nothing...until I hit my<strong> third trimester</strong> of <strong>pregnancy</strong>. And it had to take that for me to understand the hype and get over my snobbery of <strong>flats</strong>.</p>
<p>I've said this before -- flats look great on others. But on me, they felt weird, didn't look good, even hurt my feet.</p><p>It's kind of like when I was back in the 80s and had huge hair. Huge is an understatement. It was so difficult for me to transition to a flat hairstyle. I thought flat hair looked ridiculous on me when, in fact, it was the other way around. Oh gotta love the 80s. (Not!)</p>
<p>But now that my feet are swollen, my balance is off, and heels are just out of the question, I bought a couple of pairs of flat boots. Shoes that will be more appropriate when I am running around the playground with my twins someday.</p>
<p><img class="userImageCenter" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257269608_med.jpg?imageId=17085916" border="0" alt="fake Uggs" width="320" height="239" /> I bought the combat boot looking pair from <a href="www.piperlime.com" target="_blank">Piperlime</a>. How cute is the plaid lining on the inside?</p>
<p>The "fuggs" are my fake Uggs from <a href="www.payless.com" target="_blank">Payless</a>. And yes, I think they are kind of ugly on me, but they are super comfy so I am putting vanity aside. My mom thinks the sweater kind like these are the cutest. <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/7556/Are_Ugg_Knock_Offs_As_Good_As_Real_Ugg_Boots" target="_self">Cafe Kim likes them</a>, too. And Cafe Kim would look cute in anything.</p>
<p><strong>What heel height do you usually wear? Do you wear flats, too?</strong></p>

      <title><![CDATA[Superdry: New Store in the US]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="editorCaptionBox" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1257210307_med.jpg?imageId=17078260" border="0" alt="superdry store" width="400" height="287" />
<p class="editorCaption">Photo from Superdry</p>
</div>
<p>I don't need another store to love. Seriously. H&M came along I don't know how many years ago, and I was hooked. Uniqlo. Mango. Forever 21, Topshop, Zara. Madewell. Anthropologie. Thanks a lot for making cute clothes that I <em>must</em> have.</p>
<p>And now there's a new store called <a href="http://www.superdrystore.com/default.aspx" target="_blank"><strong>Superdry</strong></a>. Someone needs to take away my credit cards.</p><p>Originating in the UK, Superdry has been selling their brand in select Macy's, Nordstrom, and Bloomingdale's stores, but their first free-standing US store is opening in NYC next week. I'm sure more stores around the US will follow.</p>
<p>What I love most about Superdry is their <a href="http://www.superdrystore.com/shop/womens/superdry/denims/true/" target="_blank">denim</a> and <a href="http://www.superdrystore.com/shop/womens/superdry/footwear/true/" target="_blank">shoes</a>. OK, some of their prices are super high (they start at $39), but I can still get inspired by how they put together their looks. </p>
<p>You can also buy <a href="http://www.superdrystore.com/default.aspx" target="_blank">Superdry online</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Have you heard of the Superdry line yet? What is the most you would spend on denim or boots?</strong></p>

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Last week's <a href="http://www.mylifetime.com/on-tv/shows/project-runway" target="_blank"><strong><em>Project Runway</em></strong></a> had me scratching my head -- what is going on with them? There wasn't much to like in this last challenge. Are they all too busy talking about each other to focus on their own designs?</p>
<p>There usually is a couple of looks I love, but not this time.</p>
<p>Spoiler ahead...let's dish....</p><p>The designers are told they are to create a companion piece to compliment their winning look. Logan was the only one who had a look that didn't win, so he already felt at a disadvantage. Poor cute Logan. (Love his name!)</p>
<p>Lots of new tensions arise.</p>
<ul>
<li>Logan thinks Christopher's fabric looks cheap. </li>
<li>Carol Hannah thinks she has a scary mess and Tim Gunn seems to agree.</li>
<li>Althea sees the collar Logan is working on and recognizes it as the same one she made for another challenge. Irina and Althea start whispering in the other room about Logan and Althea says she's going to say something about Logan copying her.</li>
<li>Althea starts talking smack about Logan to her model. OK, I don't blame her for being mad, but come on...show some professionalism!</li>
<li>Logan revealed that Irina's nickname is Mean-a Irina.</li>
<li>Althea calls Carol Hannah a one-trick pony. Someone else's claws are coming out.</li>
<li>Logan calls Giordana's look grandma-ish.</li>
<li>Irina says while Althea is annoyed with Logan for copying her collar look, and Irina goes behind her back and says Althea is actually copying her Aspen look.</li>
</ul>
<p>Now for the runway show!</p>
<p>I really love Carroll Hannah's look. The volume  of the skirt -- so cute.</p>
<p>Don't like Althea's pants at all or the tank top. But Heidi does.</p>
<p>Logan's look was a little futuristic weird.</p>
<p>Irina...ugh...I hate to admit I love the cardigan. Don't love the back of the dress. Nina Garcia was the only judge who agreed with me.</p>
<p>Giordana's jacket is cute, but not sure about look overall.</p>
<p>Christopher...well. Just yuck.</p>
<p>At this point in the show, I'm thinking if Christopher doesn't go home, something is wrong.</p>
<p>Irina sells out Althea about sweater being oversized like hers to the judges.</p>
<p>Wow Althea wins. I thought the pants were so ugly.</p>
<p>Wow again. Christopher is in. Shocked.</p>
<p>Giordana is told her look is sad, drab, and dated. Logan's look is too tricked out. </p>
<p>Who goes home? The cutest contestant is out. Poor Logan. He sure looked good in his super tight silver pants.</p>
<p><strong>Should Logan have gone home? Did you love his tight pants? Who is your favorite designer so far?</strong></p>]]></description>

<p class="editorCaption">My mom and dad on their wedding day.</p>
</div>
When it comes to looking fabulous, I look to my mom. She's 60-something, as gorgeous as ever, and she has the best <strong>style</strong>, always has. </span></p>
<p><span>I remember missing the bus as a kid and she'd have to drive us to school. She wouldn't leave the house without her lipstick. So maybe her hair was a mess and she had on PJs under her coat, but her lips were perfectly painted red.<br /></span></p>
<p><span>Another woman in my life who had amazing style was my aunt Eileen. She too always looked gorgeous. I remember her hair being frosted in the 80s and I thought it was just the most glamorous look. She was like <strong>Farrah Fawcett</strong> meets <strong>Lauren Bacall</strong>. <br /></span></p><p>When it comes to celebrity style inspiration, I look to the 70s -- I just love everything from that era. I love <strong>Stevie Nicks</strong>, <strong>Debbie Harry</strong>, <strong>Bianca Jagger</strong>, <strong>Mary Tyler Moore</strong> -- all very different, but all represented a strong sense of self, along with a great sense of style. Just like my mom and aunt.</p>
<p>I love Stevie's hippie chic; Debbie's rocker girl feel, Bianca's high fashion sense, and Mary's girl next door with a nod to mod look.</p>
<p>Still, my mom has them all beat.</p>

      <title><![CDATA[Berets Never Go Out of Style]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img class="userImageCenter" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1256852375_med.jpg?imageId=17026901" border="0" alt="beret" width="254" height="257" />Last week while on a walk through my neighborhood, I saw this skeleton hanging outside a house. So of course I wanted to pose with it.</p>
<p>I ended up breaking off one of his arms, so here's me trying (and failing) to re-attach it.</p>
<p>If you can ignore the big twin baby belly, you can see me rocking my <strong>new <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/7746/Weekly_Want_Plaid_Coat" target="_blank">coat</a> </strong>in this photo -- it's light grey with big buttons and it's from <a href="http://www.zara.com/" target="_blank">Zara</a>. I've got on my <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/7832/Weekly_Want_Fingerless_Gloves" target="_blank"><strong>fingerless gloves</strong></a> and a <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/group/416/forums/read/10113205/Where_can_I_buy_cute_knit_berets_for_5_and_under" target="_blank"><strong>beret</strong></a> that my sister-in-law gave me for Christmas a couple of years ago. I love this beret.</p><p><img class="userImageCenter" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1256852436_med.jpg?imageId=17026929" border="0" alt="skeleton halloween" width="272" height="277" /><br /><img class="userImageCenter" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492157_1256852479_med.jpg?imageId=17026941" border="0" alt="pregnant halloween" width="270" height="276" /></p>
<p>The floppier the beret the better -- I like to wear it pulled low, so it goes down the back of my head. And it doesn't give me <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/1389/Help_for_Hat_Hair" target="_blank">hat hair</a> like other hats, but it still keeps me warm.</p>
<p>By the way, my husband helped and we ended up reattaching skeleton's arm. Phew! Happy Halloween!</p>
<p><strong>Do you wear berets? How do you like to wear yours?</strong></p>

<p>I recently decorated the nursery and my husband and I bought these wall decals that have woodland creatures. There is a <strong>deer</strong> with big antlers and I love it.</p>
<p>We also bought this wall hanging of <strong>deer antlers</strong>, but it's really wood carved to look like the antlers. Also love.</p>
<p>So now I want<strong> antler earrings</strong>.</p><p>I found two pairs that are very different and I'm not sure which one I like more.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11164730" target="_blank">Gold Antler Earrings</a> ($40) from brookadelphia will definitely stand out no matter what your hair color or length of hair.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26342246" target="_blank">Antler Shaped Leather Dangly Earrings</a> ($8.50) from louloudo are a better deal (under $10) but may get lost if your hair is long and dark like mine.</p>
<p><strong>Which pair of antler earrings do you like best?</strong></p>

<p>I prefer to <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/answers/215844/Do_you_love_to_shop_online" target="_self"><strong>shop online</strong></a>. Shopping in NYC, although great, can be a real hassle. Too many people, things picked over, not always a good experience. So if I shop online, everything is nice and tidy and delivered right to my house.</p>
<p>Sure, there's that what if it doesn't fit or look good issue, but I tend to shop from places that I know what size works for me and I have returned items through the mail with no issue.</p><p>I always look for a coupon code and often can get really great deals online. So even though I'm paying for shipping (unless I have a coupon code that removes shipping), I can usually work out some sort of discount.</p>
<p>My favorite online shopping is <a href="http://www.etsy.com/category/vintage" target="_blank">Etsy Vintage</a>. Oh the deals!</p>
<p>If I'm in the suburbs visiting my parents, however, I love shopping at the mall.</p>
<p><strong>Do you do most of your shopping online? Why or why not?</strong></p>

<p>Can a 53 year-old look as good in the same dress as a 16 year-old? I think the answer is yes...if you are <strong>Kim Cattrall</strong>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Damn Kim looks good!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/entertainment/6134/Miley_Cyrus_Elle_Photos_Too_Racy" target="_blank"><strong>Miley Cyrus</strong></a> has a cameo in the <a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/beauty_style/7181/Fashion_from_Sex_and_the_City_2" target="_blank"><em><strong>Sex and the City 2</strong></em></a> movie and the two ladies were filming a scene where they run into each other a a film premiere wearing the same dress. In this case, a dress by designer <span><strong>Matthew Williamson</strong>.</span></p><p>I don't know about this one -- who looks best? I might have to give it to Kim based on looking as amazing as a teenager.</p>
<p><strong>Who do you think wore the dress better?</strong></p>

      <title><![CDATA[Halloween Wish List: LED Eyelashes]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><a title="halloween guide" href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/guide/halloween" target="_self"><img class="userImageCenter" src="http://images2.cafemomstatic.com/images/user/gallery/post_1492152_1256673845_med.jpg?imageId=17002747" border="0" alt="halloween guide" /></a></p>

<p>I'm obsessed with these <strong>glow-in-the-dark eyelashes</strong> from artist <a title="soomi park led eyelashes" href="http://www.fashioningtech.com/profiles/blogs/led-eyelashes-costume" target="_blank"><strong>Soomi Park</strong></a> —a perfect addition to any <strong>Halloween costume</strong>!</p><p>Too bad they're not yet available for purchase.</p>
<p>Originally intended as a "product that speaks to many Asian women’s desire for  bigger eyes," these eyelashes really make a statement, don't you think?</p>
<p>Although, I'm wondering if all that light so close to the eyes would cause a <strong>headache</strong>...</p>
<p><strong>Do you think LED eyelashes are cool or ridiculous?</strong></p>
