Investments in High-End Watches Offer Hope to Luxury Market

It’s no secret that the luxury industry is hurting; however, people should look beyond a luxury piece of jewelry as a fashion statement only. Even being an owner of online diamond boutique, Whiteflash.com, is difficult because people view jewelry as fashion only. Jewelry can also be viewed as an “investment”, especially luxury timepieces. Luxury timepieces are viewed as something to keep in... 

Rebecca Minkoff Knocked Up Baby Bag

As usual, Rebecca Minkoff delivers a cheeky name for her latest creation – The Knocked Up Baby Bag. If you’re thinking pregnancy or being a mom are requirements to carrying this bag, think again. The bag has the same stylish flair as the original Morning After Bag and Morning After Mini, with even more special details. This oversized pebbled leather bag has the traditional large front zipper... 

Cop Fergie’s Style for Less – the Divine Rights of Denim Zipper Skinny Jeans

It’s true – they’re back. No, not the Black Eyed Peas, rather, acid-washed jeans. The denim craze of the 80′s that we swore we’d never speak of again, let alone wear, has returned with a vengeance. But surprisingly, the new crop of acid-washed jeans isn’t so bad. Sure Fergie can pull it off – she’s a rock star – they can take risks; it’s part... 

Look Like a Princess (Not Prince) in the Catherine Malandrino Ruffle Neck Top

Ruffled blouses can easily go the way of The Artist Formerly Known As Prince. While it may work for the Purple one, trust us when we say that look is not for the every day woman. So to avoid the Victorian-meets-disco/80′s pop era look, ruffles in balance and moderation are key. The Catherine Malandrino Ruffle neck top provides the balance. A cement gray tone is the perfect backdrop forthree... 

Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil – Cleanse your face…with oil?

I recently received a sample of Shu Uemura’s Premium Cleansing Beauty Oil. Prior to that, I was unaware of the usage of oil as a cleanser. I can’t lie, the thought doesn’t sound right to me. I think I’m more worried about washing away the oil than adding more onto my face. It took me a few weeks to get up the nerve to use this cleansing oil. I was unsure how to even use it, so I took...

Fergie Debuts a New Look and New Shoe Collection

Singer Fergie debuted a new look along with her new shoe collection at NORDSTROM At The Grove yesterday in Los Angeles. Her new look? Not sure we love it. She dyed her hair dark brown and the center part features an orange dye that we’re not sure is permanent or temporary. She still looked haute in a blue shirtdress, gold cuff bracelet, black leather obi belt and a pair of her own sandals. The...

Get in Shape Without Losing Weight!

Did you make a New Year’s resolution to lose weight or diet? Me too. Has your resolve worn off already? Ditto. So you won’t be receiving any judgment from me.

Although we probably shouldn’t be rewarded for cheating on our diets, Spanx shapewear allows us to do just... 

Are Designers Inspired by the First Lady’s Style?

There’s no doubt about it, First Lady Michelle Obama is a modern day fashion icon. Her looks are always stylishly flattering and chicly conservative. On the cover of this month’s O the Oprah Magazine she’s wearing a simple yet super-stylish slim orange dress, yellow short-sleeved cardigan and transparent belt. Though understated, everything she wears makes a statement, from multi-colored...

Kindergarten Chic: the Sunner Florent Romper

Traditional rompers are so “Romper Room”. What modern day woman wants to look like a big ole’ kid? But if you insist on wearing a one-piece outside of the beach, one that makes you look older than a toddler is an absolute must. The Sunner Florent Romper is the one-piece for the contemporary woman. The two-tone romper has a side hidden zip, cotton bodice and linen/rayon blend shorts... 

Velvet Angel’s R-rated Peepshow (Peeptoe, That Is)

Haute vs. Hot: Fringed Bags

Apparently the name of one of the new favorite ‘It bag’ brands of the stars doesn’t begin with an “F”, “G” or “LV”. And it’s not plastered with logos either.
