Technically, fall doesn’t begin until September 22nd, but fall styles are already here. Despite the chart-topping temps in my neck of the woods, I am stocking up on low-heeled boots, black tulip skirts, and structured shouldered jackets. This season’s dresses seem to be coming in two lengths, an ultra goth skirt to the floor, and a super 90’s skinny mini. I love the way the stretch fabrics of the 90’s, like net, mesh, and lace, are being revitalized, and I especially like them with an extra dose of pre-90’s retro, like this Stella McCartney dress.

Beba’s Closet is a Madrid-based wonderland of lace dresses with embroidered collars, tea-length strapless gown and bridal classics by designer Belén Barbaro. Although Barbaro’s materials are familiar – organza, silk and Chantilly lace – her approach to design is simplified.
As hard as you squint, you won’t find more than five beads or rhinestones on any of her dresses. The focus is on cut, fabric and fit. These are dresses you will be proud to say you wore 50 years from now.
I’ve fallen especially in love with Barbara’s extraordinary talent for controlling lace…
Oh, and you’ll be needing a gorgeous headpiece to …read more

JAKs will solve our visible butt-crack problems.
Low-rise jeans gets the flack because some Women, famous or otherwise make a mistake (or in purpose) not to wear a longer top to cover up the butt-crack area. I happen to love low-rise jeans. I prefer it over “mom jeans” or high-waisted-jeans. But I recognize the fact that when I sit, my butt-crack might be visible to anyone. I admit, I’ve had times when that happened. To avoid this, I usually wear longer tops. Or a layer a tank top underneath another top. If a layer doesn’t warrant an outfit, I make it …read more

Even if no one sees your underwear but you, it’s always nice to have something pretty for everyday wear. I chose this piece because it’s not only pretty, but it offers a two-tone stretch lace. Did you notice the straps? They are even pretty. Yeah, I have a thing about underwear!

Now, how gorgeous is this? Can a woman really have too many pieces of lingerie? Personally, I would like to have a dresser reserved just for stuff like this. And, the more room you have, the more you can buy!
And there is just something about lace, not to mention how comfortable this looks!
