Friday Frocks: Good LRD (Little Red Dress)

By |December 13th, 2013|Friday Frocks|

valentino redSince most people wouldn’t consider black and white really “colors” per se, I guess I would venture to call red my favorite color- along with ballet pink and sometimes a frosty violet.  That said, there is no better time of year to slip into a crimson creation and strut your stuff all over town… or at least every holiday party where your ex and his new (definitely not as cute or sophisticated as you) arm candy may potentially be this season.  We’ve all (hopefully) secured a LBD and perhaps even LWD, but now it’s time to kick things up a notch in a LRD.  From fire engine red to oxblood to shades of tomato, there is sure to be a LRD that will suit everyone whether porcelain blonde or exotic brunette.  Take your pick.

Setting the Mood: Happy Holla-Daze

christmas fashion editorialWhile some of you were busy posing both literally and figuratively at Art Basel in Miami, I was busy dealing with personal crises and preparing this week’s posts chocked full of gift guides that will make your holiday shopping less painful than some of those exhibitions at Basel.  Now that we’ve actually made it past Thanksgiving, it’s time to start thinking December 25th- not post Halloween like some of you overanxious overachievers thought.  It’s no secret that Christmas music is like nails on the chalkboard to me, but I will appease my holly loving, twinkle light enthusiast, overly festive friends.  So, get ready to stuff your stockings, kids.

Gift Guide: It’s that time of year again…

By |December 1st, 2008|Gift Guide|

Okay, so maybe this it’s only the middle of November, but the Holidays are fast approaching. While this is a slight departure from my typical commentary, our country is in a recession so, it’s time to start shopping in order to get ourselves out of this mess. No, really, I’m serious. So, here are some awesome gifts that I found to make your life slightly easier and to help aid in ending the national economic crisis. Then I’ll go back to being bitchy….

TURN YOUR PICTURES INTO ART:

This is one of my personal favorites.  Basically you send in a picture that you would like to have turned into a piece of art. You can choose from different styles ranging from Warhol to a simple silhouette and prices start at $39.99 and go up to over $200 depending on the style/fabrication/size you choose. It takes about 14 business days for the final product. Go to www.allpopart.com to learn more.

Such a great personal gift! Just don’t break up or you could be left with some awkward blank wall space!
