Several years ago, I invested a few hundred dollars in a handbag that I still carry today. The bag is a classic black leather with rather simple and straightforward styling. It really is a great purse, and the fact that it has lasted for so long is pretty amazing, and I feel I’ve gotten my money’s worth . The down side is that I’ve grown bored of it. I’m tempted each season with the latest styles and trends, but I can’t afford to drop a few hundred dollars on a … [Read more...]

Closed – Congrats to the winner, sweetsue! What kind of kicks do you wear when it rains? Usually I forget about trying to look good, and just wear a pair of old shoes that I don’t care about.

This is the reason why I’ve ruined countless pairs of shoes by walking in the rain and dashing through the … [Read more...]

Contest ClosedA woman can bathe her body in diamonds but never look as classy as a woman wearing pearls. The bonus is that they can also be very affordable. And they go with everything. That sexy little black dress? Check. The collared shirt and a pair of jeans? You bet. I wore my Belle Pearl earrings to the supermarket just the other day, wearing a plain tee. That might be a little extreme, but I couldn't help myself. They came beautifully packaged … [Read more...]
Contest Closed I’m never more into fashion as I am during the summer season. The warm weather brings out the fashionista in me, and with all of the cute sandals in the stores, who can possibly resist? We all know that summer shoes can be uncomfortable.

~Contest Closed~ Sunglasses will always be my most favored accessory. Cool shades hide my tired eyes when there’s no time for concealer and mascara, all while shielding them from the bright sun. They do all this and make you look fabulous, too. Sunglasses are a prime example of the marriage between form and function.
