Fashion homicide?


We all have that one favorite thing we love to wear, be it a jacket or belt, we just can't live without it. For me, that item is the grey temper boot from Alloy. How ever cheesy or cliche it might sound, it was love at first sight. (laughs out very loudly) Ok not really, but I did have a very strong affinity towards them. I asked for them as a birthday present and was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box. Now, 4 months later, the boots have met their untimely demise. Yes, it is true, I have worn them to death! I don't know, I can't help it! They are just soo cute and grey is the it color and they look great with everything and I always get tons of compliments when I wear them! Is it really bad to wear something to death if it's fashionable? I mean, the real crime would be if I wore crocs or uggs to death right? (shrudders at the thought) Well, I confess... I wore those boots today and quite possibly might wear them tomorrow. Excuse me as I look for new pair of shoes to kill for the spring/summer. Stay glam girls! XOXO

Deliciously tacky yet still glam!



I love thoughtful friends! Especially those with style! My dear, thoughtful and stylish friend Kisten got me the cutest ring ever! It's huge and asymmetrical though still keeping with the oversized ring trend. It's almost candy-like with the color, what I like to call "deliciously tacky" but still the cutest thing ever! Plus the box that it comes in is some kind of adorable! If you too want to be deliciously tacky yet still glam, go to http://www.uniquelydodies.com/. The rings come in a variety of colors and sizes (I have the purple one) and at $5, it's also deliciously affordable! Stay Glam girls! XOXO

What's your fashion signature?




Signatures are more than your name scribbled next to an X. You can have a signature fragrance, a signature dish, or signature dance move so why not have a signature fashion accessory? As part of my 2008 fashion resolutions, my resolution is to have a signature fashion accessory, that accessory being a silk scarf. I don't know wear my obession with silk scarves began, maybe I was watching something and saw someone wear one and I fell in love with it! Crazy! They're just soo classy and sophisticated. Not to mention they can dress up any outfit and can be worn so many different ways: around the neck, as a headband, as a neck tie, or as charming tie around your purse.
My boyfriend and I went shopping in Destin on New Years at this huge outlet mall. I went to the Coach outlet and got a super cute silk scarf for only $34! 50% off of the original price, I couldn't pass it up plus it's soo pretty! Stay glam girls! XOXO

In 08, it's great to be Glam!

Happy New Year Dolls! My holidays were great and I did soo much shopping! I went home for Christmas and it was lovely. Good home cooking and family not to mention, shopping! My hometown is coming up, getting new stores like Steve & Barry's and Ulta. I had been dying to get to Steve & Barry's after hearing about Sarah Jessica Parker's clothing line. Everything is under $20! Who can beat that! Plus, I was dying to get this houndstooth coat. However, in my hometown, you can't go to anything new for about 6 months because people act like they've never been anywhere! This was exactly the case! The store was only open a week or two before I came home and EVERYTHING WAS GONE! I mean everything was picked over! It was ridiculous! I did manage to come away with the dress from Project Runway designed exclusively SJP's Bitten line. And get this, it was only $8!!! Actually, everything was in the store was $8 that's why everything was gone. But I love my dress! I wore it on Christmas and got soo many compliments. I also went to Ulta which is like a mini Sephora. I was in heaven! Stila, Smashbox, Juicy Couture, Oh My! LOL It was great!
For New Year's, my boyfriend and I went to Destin. I was fun and a much needed getaway. We went to a resort and had drinks watched the fireworks at Midnight. Sigh, so romantic! On New Year's day, we went shopping! Destin has biggest outlet of designer stores and we took full advantage! Michael Kors, Cole Haan, BCBG MaxAzria, I could go on! I got the cutest dress from BCBG, a pair of ballet flats from Guess, and a silk scarf from Coach. Now, I'm broke! But I'll be glam in 08! Stay glam girls! XOXO
