Gossip Girl Addiction

my Gossip Girl Addiction has gone from bad to worse this week. First Monday's episode was fantastic, and now these pictures of Blake Lively and Penn Badgley on vacation together in mexico. Since they aren't working out so well on screen these pictures are keeping the hope alive...

eLuxury Spring Sale Clothes

eLuxury still has a ton of sale stuff that are great for spring and summer weather,

like this adorable Karta white shift dress,



and this geometric print mini-dress,



I also love this Juicy Couture white pintucked jacket,



I think I've seen this dress in ads for the new Sex and the City movie, it's a really cute dress,



A lot of great pieces on sale, with one of these dresses just thow on a pair of sandals and grab a cute bag and you are all set. I love the jacket to toss on over anything from a colorful dress to a pair of jeans.

Happy Shopping!

Gossip Girl

It was so good last night, the most satisfying part I think being Blair, Nate and Chuck all rallying together behind Serena and going off to get evil Georgina. Why oh why does the nice guy(Dan) have to be so stupid and easily duped though?

Warm Weather Inspiration - Affordable Dresses

I have been less than inspired lately by the clothes I see, so I looked around for some fun stuff and found this -




Such a cute dress, and it's only $90. That is fantastic, you can wear it with a jacket or cardigan, and also figure out how to layer shirts underneath if it's cool and you don't want to cover the adorable top.

I also like this one -




This one is so fun, and can take you into the fall, wear it with sandals in the summer and brown flat boots when the weather gets cooler. I love it. It's also only $93.

Phew, I'm re-inspired. Happy shopping.

People Really Do Win

I got home yesterday afternoon to a shocking email - I actually won one of Fabsugar's quiz sweepstakes. I have been entering things like that for a long time and was beginning to wonder who the lucky bastards were that won them because it sure wasn't me, but now it is - check out the bag I won (I haven't received it yet of course, but I can post a picture when I get it)

The Jill Stuart Sabrina Patent Tote. Apparently Lindsay Lohan was seen wearing it for a minute, which is not a high selling point for me, but I like the contrasting colors and I do like Jill Stuart bags, I even bought one not so long ago. So lucky me, went from pondering what bag I might buy for the summer, to winning one!

Politcs of Style

Back to one of my favorite topics - politicians, their 'style,' and idiotic public opinion. Hillary Clinton stopped wearing Donna Karan because she didn't want to be accused of dressing too nicely. What is this world coming to?

I don't get it. Everyone knows she has money, at this point she is financing her campaign with it. Shouldn't she dress as well as she can? Will people really hold it against her? Or is she just preemptively being stupid?

Discuss.

Ironman Clothes

We saw Ironman yesterday, I loved it and loved Gwyneth's wardrobe as Pepper Potts. It looked like Diane von Furstenberg's fall runway show, like this outfit -

The shoes are not exactly practical, but the rest is wearable.

She mainly wore dark colors, but I'd like to think Pepper would wear this Akris dress even though it's light -
For those of us with the less than Tony Stark sized wallet, and the greater than Pepper Pott's hip circumference, this Banana Republic dress is a good way to interpret her style -
