Victoria's Secret - Pleated satin slip

4 people recommended this item

Description

Victoria's Secret had a pretty amazing suite on the top floor of the Bryant Park Hotel and gave out these amazing gift bags. In my bag was a personalized $50 gift card (it has my name printed on it), cosmetics from the Very Sexy line, and this pleated satin flip (I got the nude version). I am going to try to rock this slip as an everyday outfit with my Sass & Bide black rat leggings, my Betsey Johnson cropped black denim jacket, and the most awesome statement necklace that I can find.

Suki Concentrated Natural Facial Toner: White willow, Aloe + Chamomile

First to recommend

Description

I used this toner at the Suki station in Total Beauty's suite. Well, I didn't use it the Suki beauty tech used it on me as she pampered my tired self after the Jill Stuart show. This toner is amazing. It feels so refreshing on the skin and because it's eco-friendly you know you aren't spraying yourself with horrible chemicals. I am buying a bottle asap.

Kempt - Brona

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

I was introduced to this lovely line of luxury handbags this week in New York. Kempt debuted at Liz McClean's spring 09 runway show to a full crowd.

What makes Kempt stand out from all of the other bags in world is their creative use of color and texture. Some of the skins they use are anaconda and ostrich -- not your typical skin huh?

The Brona bag is my hands down favorite I love the versatile shape, the color (works perfect for spring and fall -- purple is the hot color you know), and the texture is so unique.

Kepmt bags don't come cheap. I mean, they don't call them luxury handbags for nothing ya know. The purple/ pink ostrich bag pictured will run you a cool $1,673.00 -- a small price to pay for luxury dah'ling.

I almost died three times when I saw these shoes by Betsey Johnson. They are about a 1 million times more stunning in person than they are in the photo. Seriously, shoe-gasm baby, shoe-gasm.

Betsey's Pin-Up Small Shopper - Betsey Johnson

First to recommend

Description

Two of my Betsey girls had this bag yesterday and I fell in love with it. I didn't want to take my chances of finding it back in the store when I had time to stop by, so I ordered it online ... it will be waiting at my doorstep when I get back to L.A. So excited.

Leg Avenue Shoes- Brass Knuckle Shoes

First to recommend

4 people recommended this item

Description

I went into the Patricia Field store today and LOVED it. I almost left the store and realized I didn't see any shoes, weird. I asked the woman who was working the floor if there were any shoes. She told me downstairs. Wait, what ... there is a downstairs?!

The downstairs was amazing. Tons of wigs, which I am totally getting a light pink bob wig. There were shoes and some sexy accessories. I gravitated right towards these black and white shoes. I picked them up and thought they were pretty darn cute but when I turned them around everything changed. I realized that the heels were fashioned to look like brass knuckles!!!

I was over the moon by this time but my shopping companion quickly reminded me that I was on a shopping ban. I begged to be pardoned and made up a "travel clause." I got a look back that sorta of said "you are insane" but my companion was willing to reason with me. He said that if they were under $100 I could get them. He clearly assumed that they would be over $100 and I have to admit I agreed. I said, "Ummm how about $120. He wasn't budging. So I said fine let's ask the clerk how much they are.

Guess how much? $74 baby!!! Score! Mine, mine, mine. And since I had some money left over I got myself a $20 pair of polly pumps. Today was pretty much my day for shoes. So glorious, so glorious.

L.A.M.B. Ruby Slipper

3 people recommended this item

Description

These almost made me think it would be a fine idea to make a complete fool of myself at Fashion Week by jumping over the unfilled fountain and taking these shoes out of their glass case. I would give them back of course, I just wanted to try them on. But seriously, I am no criminal especially in the world of fashion.

I love these because they are so Gwen, a little bit of stripper and a whole lotta Dorothy. Now where the heck is Toto?

* HOLLYWOULD * Metallic Pink Audrey Ballet

First to recommend

Description

Yesterday in the AMEX sky box Holly from Hollywould came up for a Q&A. She told us all about how she got started, her inspiration, and she was even kind enough to give out $100 gift certificates. I am debating whether or not I should get a pair of heels, some boots or to be practical with an adorable pair of ballet flats. I really like this pink pair, they will be perfect for spring.

Tsarina Mule - Patricia Field for Payless

First to recommend

Description

There are a couple things I can't resist.

1.) Shoes
2.) Polly Pumps (Betsey and Patricia make them)
3.) A sale

These shoes captured all three. They were only $20 and were make goo-goo eyes at me at the Patricia Field boutique today. I simply couldn't resist. I was powerless.
