I can barely contain myself right now. I want this article of clothing so badly that every part of my brain is screaming, “Debt? Who cares about debt? You’ll be rich someday, and you won’t always look hot in leather mini skirts, so buy it, now!” Shut up, brain, I’m trying to write. Check it.
I know. It’s lace up and it’s leather and it’s kind of slutty. But it’s okay for things to look slutty as long as they’re practical. Right? RIGHT? I know you’re with me. Plus, as a bonus side swipe to my desire center, it really reminds …read more

I don’t usually dig boho, but if it’s done well, then it can be cool. Think Led Zeppelin, 70’s rock style boho versus, oh, I don’t know, some brightly colored Grateful Dead 80’s reinterpretation. Anyways, this tunic is rad. Check it.
The multi-layered caftan style has smooth, flowing lines that I love. The pattern is dark enough for me to dig it, and the print is actually amazing if you look at it up close. I’d wear it with leather pants, or better yet, skip the pants and just rock leather thigh high boots and a wide cincher belt. Available for …read more

I know. I almost never write about stuff for guys. But let’s be honest about who my demographic is. I know. Some of you have boyfriends, or better yet, some of y’all are just not scared to rock something from the boy’s section. Well, here’s something.
Shazaam. I’m freaking out about how much I love this hoodie. The photorealistic feather is really spot on. It adds the perfect little touch of artsy ethereal badass to your comfy cozy sweats. White on black is a major plus. Downsides? None that I can see, except that I literally own like 20 other hoodies. …read more

Did I ever tell you that I knit? Well, like any good domestic goddess, of course I do. I know, you don’t care. And you think that it’s not relevant. But it is! Because I can tell you right now that I wouldn’t even roll my yarn into a ball for $34.99, so it’s an amazing price for a pair of very cute fingerless gloves. Check it.

 
Now, some of you may only want these for Halloween, but you’re fools. Fingerless is the wave of the future. Know why? Because I am typing with them on right now. Yes! Gloves you …read more

In the past year or so, a number of headband trends have come along. There was the feather fascinator trend of last spring, and looking even further back, the preppy Blair Waldorf headband trend of last fall. Oh yeah, and the skinny hippie/hipster headband look of Nicole Ritchie, there was that, too. I, for one, think it’s time for some new hairwear.

 
I’m completely nuts for this take on the headband. It’s totally glam, but lies flat on your head, unlike most fascinators. And stylistically, I think it could go from night on the town to ubergoth with a quick change …read more

The silhouette on these pants is completely insane. They have that classic pleated paper bag top, but with an exagerrated wide leg that kills me. Check it.

 
The sheen on the linen is gorgeous. You could really dress these up with a shiny top like they’ve done, but you could also rock them with a wifebeater and some brightly colored skimmers. The tailoring looks really top notch, and the label gets rave reviews. Of course, I can’t make any personal promises without holding them in my hands, but these trousers look seriously upmarket for the price. And, to top it all …read more

Jackets are supposed to keep you warm. So, they should have sleeves, right? Sure, if that’s all you want your jacket to do. But if you consider the more expansive role of a jecket in tying an outfit together, then maybe short sleeves are okay?

Duh. Of course they’re okay! Especially when they’re not only adorable, but also feminine and refined. I’m totally nuts for this little number, even though it isn’t the most practical option for winter. Luckily, I live in the sub-tropics, so it isn’t exactly impractical, either. Anyways the high neck and delicate pin tucks bring soft structure …read more

Some Halloween costumes are too good to wear just once. I’m a big fan or borderline items that can do double duty as costumes and, I don’t know, say, armwarmers. Check it.

 
These batiked arm warmers are so well-made, and dare I say subtle, that you could rock them almost any day. I would, anyways. But they would also make a kickin’ costume. Available for $25 from Lady Lotus.

This ring is amazing on so many levels. First of all, it’s this crazy beautiful geode that the earth just naturally formed, all by itself. And second, the artist cut it into this amazing marquise shape that shows off all its sparkly little nooks and crannies.

The steel grey stone with its almost silver druzies looks amazing set on sterling. The size is perfect: eye-catching, but it lays flat against the finger for comfort. Available for $110 from Retsina.

Okay, y’all, you have basically no time until Halloween. If you’ve waited this long, you better get crackin’, cuz that priority shipping is gonna cost you. On the bright side, if you want to go as Gaga, I’ve got the perfect hair-cessory. Check it.

Yes, it comes in many colors. And the rest of the costume will just come together, I promise. Just put on your shiny, body con American Apparel best and get out there, folks. Available for $22 from PuppyCatMeow.
