Do you all think it would be appropriate to wear this Just Cavalli English Garden Silk Blouse to tea with the Queen? If you were Kate Middleton or someone out there looking to make nice with the Elizabeth the II would she approve of this lavender and multicolored blouse with a round collar with a button front?

You all tell me, its $595 from Neiman Marcus. I think it is a bit outrageous tucked into those white shorts there, I would wear it with some dark skinny jeans, but I’m not a paid stylist (although I wish I was!) …read more

Katie Holmes and Miu Miu were a match made in heaven when they partnered earlier this year in Miu Miu’s Spring 2009 Ad campaign. Katie’s new found flair for the dramatic and fashion is a far cry from her Dawson Creek days (I still happen to like her then better, but to each their own).

If you are looking for the same drama and luxury that are exhibited in this Ad campaign, take a look at these choices from Miu Miu and Net-A-Porter.com
Geometric Top ($775) I like this shirt, but I haven’t quite decided whether it is chic or too …read more

Have I mentioned before that Spring is coming? Have I said that it stays cold during the Spring sometimes? Or that sometimes it is warm in the Spring? If I haven’t, then consider this me mentioning it. Sometimes I just have to wear some bright colors, no matter how cold or warm it is outside. So, if the weather is just a little bit cold outside, here are three Spring Long Sleeve Blouses that go from the winter to the Spring perfectly.
Missoni champagne floral silk tie-neck blouse
This blouse is a mixture of champagne, blue, dark blue, dark red & …read more

Day two of the Latest Luxe Spring 2009 Designer Preview and we’ve come to Stella McCartney’s Spring and Resort Collection. These are some of my favorites from her 2009 designs….
Ribbon Embroidered Dress This looks almost like a swimsuit cover-up, but it is really a short metallic mesh dress with detailed ribbon embroidery. Dropped shoulders and an extended hemline in the back adds to the sophisticated yet casual elegance of the dress. It is $3,945.
Off-Shoulder Dotted Top & Skinny Jeans The Dotted Top is a pale three dimensional dotted yellow with a ribbed neckline and capped sleeve for $325. …read more

You know those horrible Spring Days when it’s super sunny and you feel like getting dressed up in your new bright clothes and then you open the door an realize that it’s -30 degrees outside and run back inside to put on some horrible outfit? I think I’ve found the solution in this nice little outfit put together by net-a-porter.
Every Monday and Wed., if you’re signed up you can receive a “What’s New” e-mail from them. In this Monday’s “What’s New” e-mail I found this beautiful Fendi Cashmere blend elongated sweater. The sweater has a visible pink chiffon slip …read more

Reality TV (or unreality as some like to call it) is my guilty pleasure. When I found out a few months back that Whitney Port of the Hills would star in her own Laguna Beach –> The Hills spin-off at Diane Von Furstenburg I was not only jealous of her opportunity (she is my age), but also stoked about watching it.
A few days ago, however, I caught an article at NYMag.com which questioned her employment at DVF. Several employees mentioned their inability to work and the lack of actual work done by Port.
Anyway, back to fashion and …read more

As I am writing this my beloved high school, Tom Clark High School, is playing in their very first football regional final. I am pretty excited about this because aside from talking about fashion or community, I’ll talk about sports until my face turns blue. So, while I was thinking about my team going to the state championship (or losing), I thought about what I might wear on a very cold Texas evening football game.
I found this Inhabit cashmere belted tunic vest from Bluefly.com that will be able to keep anyone warm on a cold day. It has a …read more

In my life, there is no hard and fast rule on how glitzy something should or can be during the holiday season. Sometimes, something very simple, like a plain shirt and some fun pumps are perfect and other times a funky dress is the best option for the day. And other times, there are the in between days where there is some sparkle and glitz, but you can throw it on with some jeans.
This Nanette Lepore chocolate wave georgette ‘Minuet’ blouse has just enough glitz but not too much glam to be perfect. It’s chocolate, bronze and black and …read more

I wish I could find a reason, any reason, to get dressed up when I go to work. The last time I did actually get dressed up it was for a 10 minute Press Conference. That was ridiculous. But, if I ever do find an excuse to find a reason to get dressed up I would wear this Oscar de la Renta Silk Pleated Skirt with the Oscar de la Renta Silk open weave cardigan

The skirt is 100% silk and has some pretty pleats throughout. It’s $1,500.00.
Earlier in the fall/winter fashion season I wasn’t quite sure what to …read more
