I love chic clutches and I came across a gorgeous Yves Saint Laurent clutch whilst browsing through the Net-A-Porter website today. If you’re looking for a leather clutch that is sophisticated, chic with a little bit of a rocker edge, this clutch is definitely a contender!
The Yves Saint Laurent Nappa Leather Clutch ($1495) is all sorts of fabulous-ness. With the colour grey and hardware being the top key trends to look out for this season, YSL has done a wonderful job of incorporating the two trends with this clutch.   If you’re familiar with Yves Saint Laurent bags, you’ll know the …read more

I’m so impressionable.
I haven’t thought of grey in forever, but the second I saw the misty, moody, far-more-flattering-than-black hue dominate the fall/winter 09 runway, I fell in love. Heather or granite; charcoal or slate — there’s a grey out there to suit every skin tone.
Here are my picks for some of the prettiest makeup shades and brands to add a provocative, but softly sultry look to complement all of those vampy outfits you’ll be inspired to sport this fall.
Motives Kohl Eyeliner in Steel is a lighter shade of grey…
Yves Saint Laurent always features the most vibrant and clear shades. Their …read more

Yves Saint Laurent has several different ways of approaching fashion, but all of them have one thing in common; their edginess does not outshine how classic all of his pieces are. Case and point, this Lizard Bracelet from Sak’s Fifth Avenue.
Adding this cuff to your jewelry drawer this Fall is the perfect opportunity to up your accessory investment pieces. This cuff, just like I mentioned before, is edgy, but not too edgy (think Mischa Barton’s hair color change, not Kristen Stewart’s rocker hair do). Pair this with that oh so Fallish purple dress and some ankle boots and you may …read more

Shoes are just one of the ways to a fashionista’s heart. A fashionista can’t have too many shoes (or handbags for that matter!) so why not get someone you love a new pair of fun and fashionable shoes for their birthday or just because? Treat your Cinderella to these irresistible shoes.
What fashionista wouldn’t love a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes?  These Tigresse – Zebra platform espadrilles ($595 at Barneys) are perfect for summer. They’d be a great accent shoe for an otherwise simple outfit. Let the shoes do the talking and the walking!  They’re made of pony hair and feature …read more

Remember that summer is a time for no rules and regulations, but I’m going to give you one rule to follow, for your safety. If you are going to be on soft ground, at any time this season, do not wear heels. Wear wedges.
And that’s fine with me! Wedges are a very trendy and very fun type of shoe to wear in the summer. And that goes for these Yves Saint Laurent Green Patent Leather Peep Toe Ombre Wedges that you can pick up at Bluefly.com. Not only are they wedges, they’re also peep toe. Two trends in one, score! …read more

I have tried several nail color pens in the past when I needed to do touch-ups on the go. Though most of them were great for touching up — they weren’t good enough to use regularly as your normal nail polish. Recently, I tried Yves Saint Laurent’s Nail Touch Nail Lacquer Brush Pen and it’s much different.
This brush pen delivers fluid, shiny color in a convenient applicator. You can apply the polish anytime, anywhere. The colors are limited to light sheer shades, so you can’t exactly get any color you want. But if you are looking for an easy, fast …read more

I was looking through the Yves Saint Laurent fashions and accessories slated for Fall and I definitely liked what I saw! When I think YSL I think of the gigantic Muse Tote that was seen on all the top celebs a while back. While the Muse bag is lovely, and still widely sought after, it’s way too big for daily use which is why this sister version of it caught my eye.

The Yves Saint Laurent Muse Two-Flap Shoulder Bag is not too big and not too small.  What makes this bag stand out is the cool smog (gray) leather …read more
