The Real Premiere 2008-05-27 18:45:00 Sex & The City premiered in NYC tonight and these are the ladies looks. I love Carrie's (I mean SJP's) dress. It looks like it could be Nina Ricci (ala the pleated polyester dress). Actually, all the ladies look lovely. What do you think?images from nypost.com Read more:Premiere
The Black Wedding Dress 2008-05-27 18:04:00 I didn't buy the people magazine with Ashlee Simpson's wedding photos but I did grasp for it shamelessly at the dentist today. The wedding dress? Fine- white, lacy, strapless. The party dress? Awesome. It is from Monique Lhuillier's fall '08 collection which means we too can wear this fabulous gown.Now, where can I wear this? Black

Party in the Back Part II 2008-05-27 16:59:00 The front of this Louis Vuitton dress is okay but it's all about the back. I love that surprise splash of color and the floppy bow.images from instyle.com and latimes.com Read more:Party
Fleet Week 2008-05-27 13:12:00 In a hail to fleet week (last week) and Memorial Day, I thought I'd post this great leather military jacket by Chloe.www.bergdorfgoodman.comimage from bergdorfgoodman.com Read more:Fleet

Traffic School Chic 2008-05-29 08:27:00 Looking pretty good for traffic school. Drinking coffee and driving? Surely that's a no.image from usmagazine.com Read more:School

OMG! It's Here! 2008-05-30 12:43:00 Sex & The City has arrived and I am going to see it tonight with a bunch of girlfriends (and actually as part of a bachelorette- perfect timing). I have not read, nor will I read, any reviews until after I see the movie and form my own opinions. What I can judge right now is the above banner for the movie... Who's that girl on the left? The marred image (found on the NYTimes website) remin
Gwen's Pregnancy Style 2008-05-30 12:34:00 I must say I am a big fan of Gwen's chic look as her belly grows. She seems to be queen of the long, draping dress which looks comfortable and glamorous at the same time. The platinum hair looks amazing against the black coat and dress and check out those platform heels.image from eonline.com Read more:Pregnancy

Amanda Wakely 2008-05-30 09:26:00 After seeing this beautiful flowing gown on Emmanuelle Chriqui, I went looking for more of her designs. She has both ready to wear and bridal. These were some of my favorites.www.amandawakely.comimages from instyle.com and amandawakely.com Read more:Amanda
Chloe Sunglasses 2008-06-01 17:26:00 My friend bought these sunglasses this weekend and I LOVE them. When I had seen them in magazines and online, I couldn't tell how they'd look in person. The metal at each corner seemed funny but in person and on, they are great. She opted for grey in the end but we also liked a pale pink and a brownish color. The white and black seemed to harsh a contrast to the metal detailing. Read more:Chloe

Who's That Girl? 2008-06-03 08:50:00 Oh yeah, Mandy Moore. I really like this dress! It is a gorgeous color and I love the length. Working on finding out who makes it.image from mystyle.com
Giambattista Valli 2008-06-03 08:36:00 They are hitting home runs recently and this frock on Eva Mendes is no exception.image from instyle.com
Tuxedo Chic 2008-06-03 08:33:00 Ashley Olsen doing the tuxedo look at the CFDA awards. It's a good look on her, but I prefer frocks. This one by Calvin Klein.image from usmagazine.com
Lust Item 2008-06-02 12:41:00 These shoes were my favorite from the movie and while they are gladiator-esque, they maintain more of a heel look. There is something very fun yet wearable about them. By Christian Dior... who knew?Available at www.neimanmarcus.com and also available in this cool color.image from fabsugar.com and neimanmarcus.com
Bowenia Dress 2008-06-02 10:29:00 Shopping this weekend, this Diane Von Furstenberg Bowenia dress in fushia caught my eye. It was very cute on, tight on top with a flare at the waist and... wait for it.... pockets! It also comes in a nice navy color which would be nice for a more toned down, classic look.For Fushia: Navy: www.nordstrom.comimage from nordstrom.com
MTV Movie Awards 2008-06-02 09:14:00 Some notable outfits from the MTV Movie awards. Starting with the boys of Coldplay... I really like their new song. The question is whether that's because I really like it or because the commercial for it plays approximately 15 times during any given television program and I can't get away from it? Either way, I've downloaded and played it repeatedly over the last 30 minutes. So, they've won.Charl Read more:Awards
Rain Shoes 2008-06-02 07:13:00 I recently purchased these Christian Louboutin gold patent leather wedges as an alternative to wellies when it rains. Sometimes you need to be more dressed up than wellies allow. I do wear these when it's not raining as well, of course, but it's nice to know that they can be rained on without getting ruined.Available in patent pink, black, and yellow as well, at Bergdorf Goodman.image from glam.
Hanky Panky Monday 2008-06-02 06:51:00 At a bridal lingerie shower this weekend, these Hanky
Panky "I do" thongs were a big hit. They come in white as well. Another favorite from Hanky Panky
were these "Naughty/Nice" thongs. I guess they came in red and green for Christmas but the message applies year-round.www.shopkitson.com and www.urbanminx.comimages from shopkitson.com and urbanminx.com Read more:Monday
My Sex & The City Experience 2008-06-01 19:42:00 No spoilers below... No worries...I have never had a movie experience like this before. We arrived for our 11:30p movie at 10:50p and found ourselves at the end of a line that wrapped down two flights of stairs. Luckily, people continued to line up behind us so we weren't the last people in line. Girls were dressed to the nines and I bet most had had cosmopolitans pre-movie (I know we did). P
MK + Elle 2008-06-04 09:41:00 Mary-Kate is on the cover of Elle magazine this month and I believe she is wearing a polyester creation. I haven't received my copy yet, so I cannot verify. They had her wearing some kooky accessories including her crazy headband get-up and the square sunglasses are a bit much.But she did look cute in some shots, thank goodness.images from elle.com
Nathan Jenden 2008-06-04 09:21:00 Browsing Net-A-Porter today, I came across Nathan
Jenden. I love the runway look (top) using the Lilith Peplum Jacket and then seeing more detail, especially on the back, on the mannequin. The Tanga Bow Trim blouse is a lot of shirt but so cute. I can see it with jeans or plain black shorts as shown below.www.net-a-porter.comimages from net-a-porter.com
Bleeding Bambi's = Fashion 2008-06-04 08:32:00 I was desperately looking for a photo of Lily Allen's dress that I could download and share with you all yesterday. Finally, here it is... She went to the Glamour Women of the Year Awards wearing this frightening dress littered with Bambi's with their throats slit and bleeding. Why? Nevermind the hair, which everyone seems all worked up about, what about Bambi?? Close-up on poor Bambi below.Oh Read more:Fashion
Parker Ochs Design 2008-06-05 11:21:00 These vintage clutches are gorgeous. I love the array of colors. And they are at my favorite LA store- Tracey Ross. On Sunset Boulevard, before La Cienega, and conveniently located next to a Coffee Bean. Lovely.www.traceyross.comimage from traceyross.com Read more:Parker
I Need This 2008-06-06 16:22:00 Or these, I should say. Currently, my shoe boxes are organized by designer, in their original boxes, and with a polaroid photo on the front so that I can find the ones I want without opening every box. I adopted that system from Reese Witherspoon (it was in an article about her) and it works great. But for the Type A in me, there is something very appealing about all the boxes being the same
How Short Can You Go? 2008-06-06 15:09:00 Can you wear something this short? I wish! I would not be allowed out of the house. She does look darling though. The dress, er really it's a sequined t-shirt serving as a dress, is by Proenza Schouler. The amazing, very tall shoes are by Versace.Blue versions of the shoes available here: from bazaar.com Read more:Short
Going Green is Expensive 2008-06-06 09:19:00 Especially in the case of these gorgeous recycled earrings. They are made of recycled gold with a little diamond accent. Maybe they're worth the cost if the result is so good for the environment? Plus, you're helping the economy. I say "Win - Win."There are a lot of beautiful designs on his site.www.tobypomeroy.comimage from instyle.com Read more:Going
