Friday Frocks: Little White Dress

By |January 14th, 2011|Friday Frocks|

We all have been schooled in the LBD (Little Black Dress), but since I’ve been spending lots (by lots I mean excessive amounts) of time on wedding blogs, I’ve noticed an ever growing trend.  While many women opt for the traditional bridal gown, many are choosing something shorter, more fun, and less conventional for the walk down the aisle.  Can’t lie, I absolutely love a poofy white dress… but I still went the traditional route.  Hm, though there is nothing wrong with a costume change…

Lanvin Tiered Silk Gazar Dress, $4,960

Donna Karan Crepe Jersey Halter Dress, $1.995

Notte by Marchesa One Shoulder Pleat Detail Dress, $695

Sue Wong Strapless Chiffon and Organza Sheath Dress, $368

Alice and Olivia Reese Peplum Dress, $368

Tt Collection Cecile Dress, $228

I do.

Why Did You Wear That: Since You Obviously Missed the Memo

By |December 29th, 2010|Why Did You Wear That?|

So, in the last two days, I have received SEVERAL inquiries as to why I have not yet discussed the latest heinous “As Seen On TV” product… Pajama Jeans.  Well, the fact of the matter is, my friends, I covered this. Let’s take a moment to revisit the post here.

That’s right. Almost a year ago, I saw these satanic excuses for pants on TV and had hoped they would just: Go. Away.  It seemed they did for awhile, but as of late I’m beginning to think that Pajama Jeans received a second round of Pajama Jean financing and amped up their marketing efforts.  Now, every fifteen minutes, there is a commercial for these walking fire hazards. I really don’t have it in me to “expand” on this topic. Just don’t let me catch you wearing them. I will be forced to find the closest sharp object and impale your heart with it.

So, don’t worry. I’m aware of the situation. I’m just going to continue pretending it isn’t there in hopes that it will just Go. Away.

Why Did You Wear That: Twinkle Toes

By |December 28th, 2010|Why Did You Wear That?|

My grandpa used to call me “Twinkle Toes” and maybe that’s why I have such an affinity for these sparkly shoes.  I believe he called me Twinkle Toes because I was a prima ballerina (in my own mind), but  I have a feeling that nickname has nothing to do with my insatiable thirst for all things shiny. In any case, everywhere you look right now, there are sparkly, shiny, glitter covered shoes and nothing could make me happier (except maybe a 25 foot chandelier).  Check out these shiners sure to catch somebody’s eye:

Christian Louboutin Lady Peep Glittered Pump, $895

Miu Miu Glitter Finish Pumps, $595

Report Signature Clarkson Jeweled Booties, $395

Betsey Johnson Ruby Pumps with Crystals, $238

Steve Madden Snobbie Glitter Shoe, $109.95

Sam Edelman Novato Glitter Pumps, $99

PS: I haven’t been able to post my own pic in these posts because I’m in the middle of Pennsylvania right now with a suitcase full of cozy cashmere to keep me warm. So, until next week you’ll need to live without my mug.

“Jeggings” Are Also Not Pants

By |December 26th, 2010|Why Did You Wear That?|

Sophia Vergara is undoubtedly a beautiful and sexy woman, so if there ever was a time to build a winning case against “jeggings” this would be it. I present to you, Exhibit A:

I mean, first and foremost, her cameltoe just poked my eye out. I can see the the painted on “stitching” that she is pretending is a “fly.” Not convinced? Let’s move along to Exhibit B then:

Pardon me, Sofia, but I can see through your pants. The stress your buttocks is putting on your spandex/acrylic/manmade jeggings is proving to be too much. One foul move and your jeggings won’t live to see another day. Um, your honor, ladies and gentleman of the jury, I think I have proven my case.
