Recently obsessed with the new YSL lip gloss stain. Yes… It’s a gloss AND a stain. Be sure to apply with caution because this fabulous concoction lasts all day. The bright shades are right on trend for spring. The brighter, the better! Number 9 is my fav.
Happy Shopping!

I was daring enough to wear these bright hues in Puerto Rico last week and loved the look! (most of you know I always do black) What a delight to see the same bold colors featured in an NM post today.
After browsing the latest People: Style Watch website I realized I needed a pair of studded heels. I found this fab pair at endless.com with free 2-day shipping and and extra discount (not sure why) but it worked for me! Of course I’ll wear them with classic pieces to tone down the “rocker/goth” look. I think they’re going to look A-mazing paired with something feminine like a black silky blouse with a bow. We all know I love anything with a bow… and black…. Happy Shopping!
Has anyone seen the Mad Men Collection at Banana Republic? It’s to die for! I need everything. *sigh….
I was planning on going to the mall today but I didn’t quite make it so I spent a couple hours looking through some fabulous garments on my favorite websites (it was just as fulfilling). Asos.com literally sucks me in for hours- there are so many adorable pieces I want them all!!! I just had to have this one though; this chiffon shirt dress is so chic, sophisticated AND on sale so it would have been a sin for me not to order it. I’m thinking black tights, black shoes, black bag and bright lips. Thoughts??
Recent Purchase: Sold Spring Street Pull-On Skinny Jeans
I first saw these pants on my recent issue of Us Weekly (pg. 67). After a little research I made a bold choice and went with the white. I thought it would be more appropriate for the excruciatingly hot Florida summer that lies ahead… that and I’m trying to incorporate brighter colors into my wardrobe.
Apparently this label is known for their super stretchy denim that’s supposed to “smooth and hug the contour of your body” (says the marketing team at Neiman Marcus) Works for me!! Cant wait.

After having a baby and being cooped up in my apartment for a month I’ve decided to join the gym again. I ventured out today and felt like something was off… one look in the mirror and I realized what it was- my outfit! So, I decided to make a quick trip to Dicks Sporting Goods for some gym attire. With a fresh pair of kicks and a sweet new outfit I’m already looking forward to my Body Works Plus Abs class tomorrow. Yup! I’m bribing myself with work out clothes, but hey- whatever gets me there, right?
and of course everything is black…
So… brightening your Spring wardrobe now includes your denim as well. J Brand Jeans has an A-mazing line of “Haute Hues’ for their Spring collection of denim including: bright royal (cobalt), bright red, bright fuchsia as well as some pastel shades like pale pink and blue. The brighter shades have become one of the latest celeb trends and I must say I’m a fan! Would you rock colored denim?

Aaron’s birthday (the fiance) was April 26th, so of course I just asked him what he wanted (trust me, he’s pickier than I am!). His request: a black G-shock with a gold face. Simple enough… our friend Ant had just purchased a few so Aaron was able to see it and he knew which one he wanted. Then I remembered Liz had sent me an email about these watches ages ago! They can totally be unisex- her and her fiance have a few colors and they share. Brilliant! Happy Birthday to Aaron and I can borrow it when I want…
For his next gift I’ll get him a white one, I think it would go great with my spring ensembles. 🙂

Unfortunately I’m too old to have mom buy me my Easter dresses anymore, but what’s Easter without a few new accessories to go with that new dress? Whether it’s church or a family dinner a nice dress and a bright bag is a must. My pick for today is the Furla “Candy” Satchel. It’s fun, bright and a great alternative to your Easter basket! 🙂
Happy Easter to all!
*It was love at first sight at Dillards.
