It was time to for me to replace my classic black high heeled boots.  It is always such a dreaded chore to hunt for those fantastically classic black boots that can go from work to play to what happens after play. ;)  It also just so happened that one of my readers was asking for help finding a great pair of boots.  So, in searching for her (and me) I came across these ‘Cristina’ black platform boots and literally swooned.

Well now that everyone in Southern California is growing gills from all the rain, we have successfully embraced our beloved boots.  However, being that finding the “right” boot is such a challenge, almost to the point of dreading it as much as cleaning the bathroom.  I think I truly gasped out loud when I saw these on my fellow juror last week.  I was rather excited to be picked for a jury and even more excited to meet this truly fabulous woman on my jury.  She first caught my eye while sitting

My 'Farrow' Ladies!

My ‘Farrow’ Ladies!

It’s been a flurry of deliveries from my version of Santa Claus aka The UPS Delivery Man with all of my fantastic Black Friday and Cyper everything sales. Some were major misses unfortunately but some were definite hits, including this DIVINE ‘Farrow’ from Corso Como. I haven’t found a flat like this one. E.V.E.R. I took several risks with the fantastic sales with new brands I hadn’t hear of and brands I’ve never tried. Corso Como was one of them. I had seen them in InStyle la

Posted by Marsha Hallet on July 9, 2009 at 12:26pm
Yes the 80's are back with those padded shoulders and power suits, but in case you've already done that era, a new alternative for work attire is the power sweater. The advantages soft dressing provide over restrictive jackets are obvious. And, you won't look dated!

A less monolithic appearance can still send a powerful message, sometimes more so. Color and graphics make bold statements. Use sweater dressing when you want to be approachable yet make your point. Tailored sweaters with striking in

Modelling is equal parts excitement and exhaustion mixed with determination and spiced with glamour. Don’t be fooled by the lacquered looks, and the air kisses. It is one tough gig. Try strutting to castings down cobbled streets to French wolf whistles whilst trying to balance a book, cards a street directory, flat shoes….and then appear carefree and composed. Modelling at a high level requires determination and many sacrifices. In many regards it is a game, and you have to learn how to play, to
