Michael Kors Very Hollywood Perfume Ring

Filed under Fragrances
When I was a little girl, I had a little yellow duck pin that someone got me from AVON for Easter. It was so cute and the best part was that if I slid one part of the duck to the side, it had a little solid perfume in it. I loved that pin and I wore it all the time.
I still love the idea of a piece of jewelry with a lovely smelling surprise inside. Sephora is now carrying a cocktail ring with Michael Kors Hollywood fragrance in it. It’s a gold-toned ring with a big, pink gemstone. The …read more

Do you love accessories?
How about supporting worthwhile charitable causes?
Now how about if we could combine those two interests…
You can!
The annual “Runway to Service” auction is a joint event between Mercedes Benz Fashion Week designers and the 9/11 National Day of Service and Remembrance. Designers donate clothing and accessories right off the runway, which is then auctioned off to raise funds for the victims and family members of 9/11.
So what kind of goodies can you find at the online auction?
Let’s take a peek…

We’re down to the last three days of the Spring & Summer 2010 collections at New York Fashion Week – luckily, there are tons of amazing designers still to show…
And I’ve got some interesting accessories to share with you all today!

ideeli has a great sale on Kate Spade New York handbags, accessories and jewelry – but it’s seriously limited-time How limited-time? Well, the event runs until tomorrow morning, but I doubt that they’re going to last until then. Especially when you can save as much as 59% on some bags.
ideeli is an invitation-only shopping community, with deep discounts on designer names – but the sales are all very short, so if you want something – you need to jump on it.

Fall is coming up sooner than you think and the best way to transition some of the lighter weight summer clothing options into fall is by the use of scarves.

Design Profile: Christopher Kane for Versus
August 21, 2009 by Tracey Duncan
Filed under Fall Style, Indie
Christopher Kane, a relative newcomer on the fashion design scene, became something of a darling last year with his line of gorilla printed dresses and tees. These babies have sold to Dallas socialites and rock-n-roll heartthrobs alike, and I would have one of my own if they didn’t retail for way over the price of my rent. Anyhow, earlier in the year Mr. Kane announced that he would be pairing up with Versace’s diffusion line, Versus, in creating a line of accessories. Immediately I began to look forward to over-the-top leather boots with miniscule pricetags. Oops. Let’s just say that …read more
