Over at...

YouLookFab Ms. Angie points us to an interesting article over at Psychology Today...

The Psychology of Style

It's an interesting article and so are Ms. Angie's comments. Go on over and check it out!

I Heart....

My new Isaac Mizrahi for Target trench....



Urban Balmicann Trench in Silver Birch Toile



Yes the coat is every bit as adorable as it looks in the pic! The toile pattern is lovely and the subtle silver birch color makes it just enough floral without being over powering. The material is a nice, heavy weight cotton. It fits me like a dream and, yes, on me it comes down to my mid-knee which is perfect! I've already received many complements on it.

It's not a coat for very cool days, but it is the perfect coat to wear when the temp is between 60 and 70 and you just want a light, good looking coat to wear out.

Ah Isaac, I'll say it again - I'm going to miss you when you've finally left Target!

Interesting concept....

Make anything a carry bag...




Bless Tag Handles


You need to go over to the site to see how these are used. I must admit, I'm not sure how I myself would use them -- but that could be because I, myself, don't carry large bags of things (potting soil, dog or cat food, big boxes of disposable diapers, etc, etc...). If you do on a regular basis, these little darlings could come in mighty handy! ;-)

Yes I know....

I've sort of been missing in action the last couple of weeks. I guess there are at least two things to blame...

1. The job / parent issues have been hopping the last couple of weeks - several doctor's appointments for my folks and lots of challenges at the job - which has left me just plain wiped.

2. I just haven't been "feeling" the whole fashion thing lately - maybe it's just feeling tired, but I just haven't seen much that has actually inspired me of late.

Hopefully the dry spell with end soon...so hang in there with me!

Holy Cow!......

DSW FINALLY has an online store!

DSW Online

And from what I can see it's been well worth the wait! The site is a delight to navigate and you can zoom in and see every, and I do mean EVERY, glorious inch of the shoe you are drooling over!

And yes - what would DSW be without the clearance rack - well the online store has that too!

Shipping is free for DSW Rewards members and Next day shipping is free for Premier Rewards Members.

And just think - no jostling with your fellow shoe shoppers over one of those narrow little benches to try on shoes! ;-)


Just a few of my favs so far:




Issac Mizrahi Demille Leather Pump - Clearance price $189.94


Yeah, yeah I know - my love of Issac's stuff just won't end! But these are the perfect work pumps, out to dinner pumps, to church pumps - you name it! Sadly, with the 3 inch heel they won't be my pumps - but for those of you who can, check them out!



Cindy Ivana Fabric Pump - $99.95


I just, just LOVE this shoe! It comes in 4 other colors, including a neutral. Just the thing for adding a bit of that floral trend to your wardrobe for this spring and summer!

And speaking of neutrals....



What's What Dominate Patent Platform - $39.95


This is just a flat out classy shoe that can be worn for just about any occasion - think about those upcoming spring and summer weddings ladies!

This is bad ladies - very bad - for my pocketbook! :-O

Seriously, go on over - and enjoy
