Sultry Beach Wedding Dress Style

Even though beach wedding dresses tend to be on the casual side doesn’t mean they can’t be sexy as well. Make sure your dress is perfect for the hot weather and salty air by choosing styles that not only complement your figure, but are also made with fabrics that allow you to breath and move. Two specific styles, a strapless and a backless wedding dress combine your need to be beach appropriate and sexy.

Who wore it best?

We were all crazy for the royal wedding, especially the wedding party dresses, like Pippa Middleton’s white satin bridesmaid dress. It reminds us of the similar dress Carmeron Diaz had ever worn before. Let’s check.

Cameron Diaz

Pippa Middleton

So who would've believed that, two years later,

70s Fever: Maxi Skirt + Chunky Platforms

Rachel Zoe's comfy, jersey-knit (I think) skirt-and-shirt combo could be worn year-round, no? The celebrity stylist has long been vibing the boho '70s, and this look is no exception. I especially love the off-shoulder sleeves and chunky metallic platforms.

Oscar Recap

The big night came and now its over.  While Hollywood attended their fancy parties for a feel good time after all the excitement of the night, I was exhausted from the entire show and trying to keep up with my Oscar app.  Yes,  I know a little crazy but I wanted to have enough information for myself rather than reading the critics.  And yes, I’m sure some critics had a field day with their summation.  I on the other hand believe fair is fair and give credit where it is due.

As you know, the night

Oscar Mania

As I sat doing research for this piece, my mind was bombarded with color choices, fabric choices, accessory choices. Two thoughts constantly nagged like a bee buzzing from one flower to another: Truly, how do all those actresses and actors decide on who will be their designer? How do they make their final choice of the dress from all the other dresses?

The prestigious honor of obtaining the coveted Oscar goes to those selected few that become masters at their craft and are recognized on Oscar nig

BCBG, The Academy of Art, Max Azria and Tips

We came back from our 2011 Fashion Week bursting with excitement.  Simply said, the designers did impress.  The following is our little insight.

Sleek and chic are often used as buzz words. For this fall, they are anything but just buzz. When a designer can convey effortless simplicity in his or her design so that the clothing seems to float on the body even with a touch of geometrical structure, they have achieved sleek and chic in my book. These two words aptly describe all three of the shows K

Sunday's Lagniappe - Looking for Spring

Funny how the simplest things make us happy.  Take for example, today the sun came out, the snow has been melting and it was absolutely delicious to wear only a heavy sweater sans hat, scarf and gloves.  Yes, the weather has made me absolutely chipper and thinking of Spring with smiling cream and yellow daffodils, easter egg colored tulips and my favorite, orchid blossoms. Sigh.

For me, and I'm sure for most of you, Spring also means less clothing. No, I'm not talking of joining a nudist colony o
