The best part of my trip back home to New Jersey/New York/Maryland wasn’t winning some Roulette cash in Atlantic City, meeting up with five fashion bloggers (though I heart you all), nor spotting Chris Noth (Mr. Big in Sex and The City) sitting three feet away when I had been ranting that the sequel was [...]

Above are my top five favorite looks from Alexander Wang’s Resort 2011 Collection. Simultaneously, Alexander will be launching a line of “essentials” that will debut with three pants, two jackets, and one blouse.

You know the morning afters when you can’t stop smiling because of the shenanigans you fell into the night before… and because of the smiles on your friends’ faces that match your own? The morning after my slumber party was one of those. Last night, the girls met up at my Los Angeles condo where [...]

The theme of the 2010 Oscars seemed to be that dreams do come true. No doubt it happens every year, but this year in particular felt like the little guy or girl who may have been reaching for that faraway star on tippy toes finally took hold of the gold. There’s a classic scene in [...]

The super cute Clare of the fashion blog, Clarabelle, featured Bec and me a few weeks ago deeming us fashionistas who are “trend-tastic”. This got me to thinking about the top three trends that are the current empires in my state of mind. 1. Lingerie lingering outside- I just bought this Topshop bralet and can’t [...]

I can’t say it enough. And I’d yell it from the rooftops. My mom is the best mom/mommy/mother in the entire world. In so many ways, she inspires me to be a strong woman. She stands up for her beliefs, speaks her mind, and when there are those gray moments to be silent or speak [...]

I fell in love with this Mundi dress as soon as I saw it on WelcomeHuntersLA.com and would so order it if there was an XS or even a Small available. However, there’s only a Medium on the site- which the model is wearing and I think I’d be swimming in it. I need to [...]

This is the first time I’ve decided to post a celebrity photo. When I saw Reese in this gorgeous Rodarte Fall 2009 dress, paired with unexpected gray and yellow heels, I couldn’t help but post this. The bonus of this picture is that she threw up the “live long and prosper” Vulcan salute- something I [...]

I want, I want, I want. I… want. The t-shirt and leggings are both LNA and I’d order them from Singer22.com. Now, you could easily say that both pieces are a total DIY project, but alas, I don’t really trust myself with a pair of scissors cutting into anything that costs more than $10, ie. [...]
