Fall Into The.....

Did you think you were looking at images from some high end designer's look book?  Well, believe it or not all the looks are from the GAP!  I know, right?  It seems that Patrick Robinson has a vision that doesn't involve mile high stacks of polos and khaki's that the gap has been known for, for years.  I love all these looks, and the best part is they don't cost an arm and a leg.  Which looks are your favorite?

Fancy Fingers...

Like many of you, I have been into oversized rings for quite sometime now.  I am always on the hunt for a new piece to add to my growing collection of cocktail rings.  There is 1 ring that I have been seeing ALOT lately on many a hand.  I did a little research and found out that it was the YSL Iconic Arty Oval Ring that retails for just under $200, and is also SOLD OUT in the turquoise color that I L-O-V-E!  The price tag is a bit more than what I would normally pay for a costume jewelry but it is so worth it.  While I am on the hunt for this ring, I will just admire it in all the pics below.

Sam for All......

As I read all of your blogs I see that we all share the same sentiment in wanting the winter months to come a little bit sooner.  I can't believe that summer is almost over, and we will all be in leather jackets, high boots, and many of the other Fall/Holiday trends that are soon to hit the racks.  With that said have any of you seen the new Fall shoes from Sam Edelman?   They are the perfect mix of a little bit feminine and a lot of rock and roll.  Meet my favorite picks from the new collection.

The Great Cupcake Adventure!

The cupcake craze has taken over.  From Magnolia Bakery, to Sprinkles, to DC Cupcakes, everyone has their own version of this non traditional favorite.  I've tried a few of the cupcake favorites, and to date Sprinkles has defiantly been my personal favorite.  Well, there is a new cupcakery in town by the name of Dimples that people have been buzzing about, and I was finally able to give it a try last week.  Let me tell you, I can't say that it will take over Sprinkles as my absolute favorite so far but it is a VERY close second.  After the cupcakes I snapped a few pics of my outfit to share as well.  I hope you all had a great weekend.

Banana Pudding the best flavor of the 2 I bought.  It was moist and delicious!

Mix it Up!

I love looking at look books from online retailers.  Today I was on Intermix browsing their Fall 2010 look book and it made me even more excited than I already am for the winter months to arrive.  Tall boots, chunky sweaters, and fur seemed to be the theme across most of the looks.  I wanted to share some of my favorite pics which one is your favorite?.  I hope you all had a great week and an even better weekend.

A GILTy Preview

Hi all my blog world fashionistas!  This ones is for you. The fashion collaboration that I blogged about a little more than a week ago here, is going to be previewed on Gilt tomorrow along with the Mulberry bag and John Derian home goods collaborations.  If you are one of those early adopters and need to have these before they are available for purchase in Target stores then this preview is for you.  The teaser alone makes me want to be at my computer at 10:55 am CST and wait for the minutes to count down until 11:00 when I can see all the goodies that will be for sale in the next couple weeks.  I probably won't get anything since I am one of those shoppers that has to touch and try on my clothing purchases but if you aren't, this is the perfect opportunity for you.  Let me know if you are able to snag anything tomorrow.  Those shoppers on Gilt are FAST!!!

MNG has Landed.

I can't believe it, but the famous Spanish brand Mango has team up with JCPenney to bring its shoppers some new cool product.  While Penney's is not known for their fashion forward youthful clothing, I think this is def a step in the right direction.  For those of us that love the Mango look and don't have the pleasure of having one of their stores in our town, we now have the chance to purchase some of their product.  Below are a couple of my picks, but I will have to take a visit to the store to see if they are purchases.  Have any of you seen this in store what do you think?
