Pair This with That

I’m a huge fan of mixing high and low fashion. It’s such a great way to pull together a stylish looking outfit, and mixing in the low price items with expensive pieces you own elevates the whole look.  Guiseppe Zanotti’s fall collection includes a pair of black leather peep toes with a zipper-edged rose on [...]

Bloomies Shoe Sale

Shoe-aholics who love a good deal should click their way on over to Bloomingdale’s, where they are offering the following promotion for TODAY ONLY:

$50 off $200 of shoes

The only thing that irks me about sales like these is that they aren’t a consistent percentage off. You [...]

To Buy or Not To Buy?

Now that we are *officially* in a recession, shopaholics everywhere must search deep within their souls and answer a pressing question: to buy, or not to buy? Do we buy because all of the best designers have slashed their prices by 70%? Or perhaps because it’s practically our civic duty to jump start the flailing [...]

Summer On Sale!

Now that Fall items are flooding stores, summer’s bounty has hit the clearance racks – cha-ching! There are few things I love more than a great sale, and end of season sales are my favorite type of sale. Stores are desperate to liquidate clothes that will soon be out of season, and you, the buyer, [...]

Splurge v. Steal: The Yellow Bikini

Sorry I’ve been MIA the past few days…. between wedding planning, house hunting and a rockslide of work I hardly had time to breathe, let alone post . I was looking at swimwear on Shop Bop and found Rachel Pally’s adorable little yellow string bikini, which is just perfect for summer.
It has a pop [...]

Ladies, start your engines – Net-a-Porter.com is having a “U.S. Sale Extravaganza” starting today, and let me tell you – it is good. From Jimmy Choo pumps and towering Louboutins to Bottega’s Knot Clutch to the ubiquitous Miu Miu matelasse tote and Roland Mouret Moon Dress (a la Victoria Beckham) you’ll find all [...]

Go Retro

Super skimpy bikini bottoms peeve me. And for some reason, it seems that all bikini bottoms – irregardless of brand or size – are all super skimpy. Instead of continually feeling ridiculous for not being able to fit my size 4 frame into an “extra large” string bikini bottom, I’ve opted to go retro.
Retro cuts [...]

Rachel Pally Warehouse Sale

I first discovered Rachel Pally at a warehouse sale in college. I bought a flame-red jersey knit 6-way tie top and a black dress of the same fabric and style. Countless compliments and four years later, it’s no wonder Rachel Pally is a mainstay in California cool fashion. I caught word of her next warehouse [...]
