Like most young girls, I always loved playing dress up in my mom’s closet. She had tons of fabulous shoes and clothes that I would get lost in for hours. Fast forward many years later and I still love playing dress up – mostly, in my own closet. So when I was invited to a “Dress Up With The Outnet” blogger and editor photo shoot, I couldn’t resist! I showed up at Jack Studios, which looked like a dream come true! There were racks and racks of clothes from theOutnet, plus endless designer shoes, and a table full of jewelry and handbags. I couldn’t wait to try...  Read More..

Before we saw her slobbing down Jamie Foxx on stage after receiving the “Decade of Hotness” award at Spike TV’s 2009 “Guys Choice Awards”, we first took notice of Halle Berry‘s red carpet look.

Her hot dress was the Riller & Fount Devi Drape Front Halter Mini in Black, and her even hotter heels are by one of our favorite footwear designers, Camilla Skovgaard. We spoke with Skovgaard shortly after her shoes walked down Matthew Williamson’s...  Read More..

One look at Camilla Skovgaard‘s footwear and you know she’s not satisfied...  Read More..
