I try to avoid impulse shopping by going into a store already knowing what I want/need to buy, or waiting a few days to decide if I truly want/need it. And when I can’t stop obsessing over something in my head, it becomes a must-have. Such was the case with this striped J. Crew shirt and this neon/fluoro/hot pink Celine Leather Luggage Tote. I first saw the bag online on Savannah Brinson (Lebron’s...

Gloomy days call for a pop of color, don’tcha think? In college, I used to be that girl that would always wear all black. Not sure what I had against color, since my high school wardrobe was PRETTY COLORFUL. Thank goodness there are few photos. But throughout college, I donned all black, pretty much all the time. Black is still the color I fall back on but I see myself opening up to more and...

Naturally, her hair was worn in long, wavy blonde curls, and she accessorized...

Though Fall is rapidly approaching, it doesn’t mean you have to give up color for the season. In fact, pops of color were spotted on the fall 2011 runways and are one of the major fashion trends of the moment. We love these resin Pop Art Clip Earrings by Sobral for their fun bursts of colors like pink, red, purple, blue, green, yellow and orange in watercolor-like ‘brushstrokes’.... 

In her latest film, Colombiana, Zoe Saldana is a tough-talking hitwoman who kicks butt and takes names, but last week at the Los Angeles premiere of the film, she looked nothing but soft and sweet in a head-to-toe pink outfit. On the red carpet she rocked a salmon pink leather halter dress by Valentino, accessorized with a Salvatore Ferragamo woven clutch with gold sequin detail, Irene Neuwirth rose... 

I received a surprise anniversary gift from my hubby – tickets to see Jill Scott in concert! She’s been my favorite female artist ever since she came out with her first album (and I’m not biased just because she’s a Philly girl like me) – she’s one super talented singer and any chance I can get to see her perform live, I’ll take it! Since it was her ‘Summer... 

“One of my favorite parts of putting a collection together is taking a trend and making it my own, putting my stamp on it so that it’s different from everything that’s out there.” — Maya Brenner of Maya Brenner Designs Since launching her jewelry line in 1998, Maya Brenner has been one busy woman. You probably have seen her designs worn on celebs like Katy Perry, Eva...

We love that she finally ditched the red ‘do in... 

I have a favorite, secret TJ Maxx store that has THE BEST designer stuff. I’m talking Pucci wallets, Katherine Kwei knot clutch bags, Prada pumps and Fendi bags. These are the just some of the things I’ve bought/seen there. And this Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent batwing-style tunic top. It was between this and an Elizabeth and James blazer (still kicking myself I didn’t get both)...

There are few stores we love more than Target. It’s the perfect place to spend a weekend afternoon picking up all the things you need, and even more that you don’t, but really, really want!

This led to browsing their...
