These labels are 2 of my favorite English brands Jaeger and Burberry and what a treat it was tofind them both waiting for me inside the same thrift store. I firstpulled this fire engine red Jaeger top and said to myself “self I’mloving this English brand” and then self replied “that’s because you’rea tag hag!”. I just shook my head and continued shopping. Yes I loveJaeger and these days, betweenits owner British fashion maestro Harold Tillman CBE (who also ownsAquascutum) and chief executive sha

Not only is this ensemble juicy with design but it’s just your classic casual all American look. The red cotton top is by Juicy Couture and there is so much detail in this top it’s really hard focus, I meanwill you click on the detail photo and look at the backside of this topand see the elastic waistband stitching…. It’s these minute details thatelevated this label into the stratosphere. Red is such a passionatecolor and I love it when it’s used in fashion and hate it when they useit for car co
I promise my vent session will not last long but I’m truly tired of watching how a fewtalentless people hijack the media. Have you noticed that too? Iwon’t name names here because I don’t think that’s very STYLISH to beginwith but these people that smack gum like crazy andhave jacked up hair with their fake tans are horrid dressers. No STYLEwhatsoever and it just makes me need someone to pass me a bucket.. Oksorry about the rant but I’m so OVER people hijacking the media intothinking they actual
Finding this Eskandar white striped cotton top is like being blessed by theLeprechauns and finding that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Eskandaris the namesake clothing company for women best known for itscomfortable layering pieces able to be easily removed with the weather.Designer Eskandar Nabavi uses fabric and classic designs not dictatedby trends to create his wearable pieces. Anytime a designer createspieces that are not following trends in my book is a true ‘artist’.This is exactl
This is the very first piece from Tibi I have scored from thrifting and I think it’s a sleek one. Whatmakes writing a daily blog so much fun for me is times like this when Ihave found my first item by this brand that is carried in NeimanMarcus and Saks Fifth Avenue and gets to talk about it. Tibiis the brainchild of Amy Smilovic who grew up on a small island off thecoast of Geogia and in 1997 moved to Hong Kong with her husband. Sheis crazy for prints and color in unexpected combinations, she lo

Growing up in the 70′s people asked me which Catwoman I liked best: Julie Newmar orEartha Kitt and that was a no brainier for me…Eartha Kitt honey….alwaysEartha Kitt. Loved Julie Newmar but for me there was only one Catwomanand that was Eartha. That’s what I had on my brain when I first sawthis gray wool jersey jumpsuit by Bergdorf Goodman. See how strange mymind works? Eartha Kitt popped into my head when I pulled this jumpsuitfrom the rack and I just smiled because it took me back to my youth…
My heart sank just a tiny bit when I first spotted this Maria Bianca Nero silk camisole because Iactually thought it might be a Pucci and I love my Pucci now. I wasquite pleased to see this label though, Maria Bianca Nero, because this is my first piece of recycled luxury from this brand andI’m excited. Maria Wojciechowski is a Los Angeles native and growingup she dreamed of actually going into retail. She dreamed of having herown store that dealt with beautiful and precious garments. Shemodeled

Do you shop at H&M, or snub high-priced designer labels in Montenapoleone in favour of outlet finds? Congratulations, you're a recessionista - a woman with 'a keen eye for style but an even sharper eye for a bargain'.
Apparently, more and more of us fashionistas are seeking out low-price clothes that give the style but won't give our wallet a diet, and over one third of us own an item of clothing that cost less than 5€.
The bargain fashion boom was boosted by e-bay, fast fashion and those huge out
They may not be the greatest style-arbiters, but Fashionista certainly has an air-tight grip on the fashion news of the day—to wit, they’ve declared that it’s actually hotenough in New York City to wear mesh tops in their piece “Things You Can Only Get Away With Wearing When It’s This Effing Hot”. For the record, it is currently 102° Fahrenheit in the Big Apple and, no, it is still not hot enough to wear a mesh top. [Fashionista]
