This blog posting is exciting for me because this makes the second item I’ve found from BethBowley and just like the previous item before,  this silk skirt is sassyand sexy.  Before I get carried off in a tangent on Beth Bowley let me just say that I found the Theory silk polka dot blouse with elastic wrist bands first.  Leave it to Theoryto design something modern and classic such as this polka dot silkblouse…this item will NEVER go out of STYLE….Ok back to Beth.. BethBowley became a fashion d

Spotting that orange Tory Burch label is something I could probably do from miles away, you knoworange is my favorite color so that’s the easy part.  I plucked thissheer navy butterfly pattern Tory Burchand held it up for further inspection and grinned from ear to ear, likethat canary that ate the cat…..This top is beyond being hot and STYLISHits up there with just being so pure and simple gorgeous.  This top cango from that casual event to evening power hitting function in a bat ofan eye and t

This entire ensemble from top to bottom and by bottom I’m referring to the shoes were new….  I love when I find new items when thrifting, you can’t get any higher than that, well not legally you can’t…. The first item I pulled out from the racks was this beaded DKNY dark gray sweater and everyone needs a beaded sweater esp a nice beaded sweater and leave it to Donna Karen for DKNY to design a highly polished one.  You can’t read or see Donna Karen’s name and not associate it with New York fashio

A blue / white ensemble is always a classic, just check out this outfit I collected from 1 thrift store, to see for yourself. I found this brand new, still with the tags on it for $175, Laundry by Shelli Segal white cotton blouse. Brand new is the key word of the day, yes you can find brand new items inside a thrift store all day long if you look. I found these super sleek Yumi Mazao denim capri pants that are so French it’s making me crave a baguette. Yumi Mazao was started in 1985 in Paris and

Can luxury really be this good, I mean really this good???  From top to bottom this entire ensemble came right out of 1 thrift store and blew me away because each item is high end luxury at its best.  Lets start with the top…..I found this gorgeous navy silk / cashmere blend MAG sleeveless top in pristine condition.  MAG is all about luxury just click on the link and look at their collection…..  The next item I found were these striped slacks by Nanette Lepore with a button tab on the cuff, that

This makes the second item by Carolina Herrera I’ve found inside a thrift store and like the time before this one, it’s exhilarating to say the least.  “I love the idea of elegance and intricacy, but whether it’s in a piece of clothing or a fragrance, the intricacy must appear as simplicity,” says Carolina Herrera, the 2008 CFDA winner of the Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award, of the aesthetic sense that has driven her for over 25 years as fashion designer.  Chic, sophisticated women all

This vintage pink leather skirt by Genny is the softest leather I’ve ever felt in my life and I just keep thinking to myself how lucky I am to have found this in the thrift store.  I have always been a huge fan of Genny and I remember it well from the my early Dallas days in the early 80′s.  This brand was EXPENSIVE… and I mean EXPENSIVE….. along the way I have gobbled up a few pieces from Genny but nothing as soft and elegant as this pink leather sexy as hell skirt.  Genny was founded in Italy

This is my first piece from the brand Walter and this brown skirt is gorgeous….

His romantic detailing is what makes Walter truly wearable from morning till evening, “my designs go from day to night without p

I love this LBD by Laundry by Shelli Segal, love that it’s a spaghetti string dress that is sheerat the bottom so it’s even sexier than normal. I know who wantsnormal? I wanted to show this black dress with this chic velvet wrap byBebe. The wrap is made of rayon and silk and looks 100 zilliontrillion billion million times better than real fur.

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

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…
