Proenza Schouler Beaded Satin Jumpsuit
How rich do you feel? Rich enough to buy a scrap of sequin cloth stitched on pants for $10,000? I mean if it were a gorgeous ball gown from say, Oscar de la Renta, then I’d understand. But this is ridiculous, it looks like a bathing suit with harem pants. Yes yes, it’s high fashion [...]
Ralph Lauren Spring Sale! 40% off + 15% off= 49% off!
Can you believe Ralph Lauren is holding its Spring/summer sale in APRIL!?!? I’m definitely not complaining but really, this is a sign of the times. The sale is 40%+15% off entire stock of spring merch plus its bags and shoes. It’s around 49% off which is really steep so early in the season. I’m heading [...]
Haute Thoughts by Heidi Dillon: Frugal Shopping in your closet
Heidi Dillon is the Founder of The Fashionistas. My mother always told me that it is better to buy one good thing than 10 cheap things. In a fit of adolescent defiance, I would snap “I agree, but I want 10 good things!” Being a life-long, die-hard fashionista, trying to curtail my free- spending ways [...]

Fashion of Summer 1972 is Surprisingly Relevant
I’ll be the first to admit, I just don’t have time to read many blogs but one that I do enjoy for the witty writing and relevant topics is Jezebel. I just have to share the 1972 Sears Spring Summer catalog, you will want to order if you could, except probably remade in cotton instead [...]
Peep Toes are not Toe Holes
Christian Louboutin Scarpe Platform Slingbacks ($1095); Jimmy Choo Peep-Toe Platforms ($650); Oscar de la Renta Peep-Toe Pumps ($675) Peep toes are sexy and chic. But, and here is a very important BUT, your toes really need to stay contained IN the peep hole, otherwise it is a disgusting mess. If there is one pet peeve [...]

Insanely Fabulous Alaia Platforms
I can’t explain the allure of Azzedine Alaia. I mean the man has not done anything different for, like, 20 years but his little stretchy dresses still cause as much stir today as they did in the ’80s. Perhaps that is his brilliance, why fix it if it’s not broken right? I have a few [...]
Frugal Finds: Bandleader Vest and Mesh Zodiac Tee
I’m loving these two frugal finds, but am torn about whether or not to get them. First there’s the Target Bandleader Vest ($34.99), which has been getting a done of hype lately and then there’s the Target Mesh Zodiac Tee ($19.99). Both are wholly wearable, fun, casual finds. The only pitfall — while I’m all [...]
