Right on the heels eight Oscars for Slumdog Millionaire, the lovely Freida Pinto graces the cover of Vogue India. Clothing by Louis Vuitton, makeup is by Gucci Westman. However, I think the scene stealer is the beautiful necklace she has on. Hopefully I can get my hand on a copy. Also, below is [...]

Â Participating boutiques in the Chicago area included:Â Le Dress, vFish, Eliana Lilly, Beta Boutique and Frankie’s on the Park who were to put together five “looks” with no piece of clothing [...]

On the heels on New York Fashion week and writing about it at a time where everyone else is probably writing about the Oscars fashions, I’m going to add my .2 anyway. I’ll admit that whenever Fashion Week’s roll around, New York isn’t the city that keeps me on the edge of my seat. I’m [...]

Lately, I have been obsessed with having clear and beautiful skin. I recently went to my local Nordstrom spa and got a facial from a outspoken esthetician. She lectured about my skin and was able to conclude that my diet was poor, I’m stressed and whatever products I’m using just ain’t working for me.  She [...]

I heard the rumors about Michelle Obama appearing on the cover of Vogue magazine, but I didn’t pay much attention to them.  As stated in my previous post, I haven’t really read an entire issue of American Vogue magazine in ages, and I’ve found other alternatives and I’ve gotten fashion fixes in places such as [...]

In my teens and earlier twenties, I never wore blush. Unless it was for prom, I just didn’t understand the purpose. I knew what it was for, but I just didn’t think it would enhance my look anyway. That was, until I discovered Nars Orgasm blush. The picture above is a rough picture of my [...]

I was just perusing the Nylon Magazine mall when I came across the Ben Sherman gloves above.  They were regularly priced at $74.99, and now they are $52.49. Not too bad for nice leather driving gloves. Yes, I know the winter is coming to an end soon (hopefully) soon, but these gloves would still look [...]

So it’s a little over a month until March 5th, the day that McQueen arrives in Target stores. As noted in a previous post, Alexander McQueen is probably one of my favorite designers of his generation. So of course, I was excited (and I still somewhat am) about his clothing line landing in my local [...]

Although it’s all of 30 crisp degrees outside right now, Spring is still right around the corner. In Chicago, we really don’t have a natural progression into Spring. Rather, it just goes from dead cold to seasonably warm in a matter of a few days. So, I’ve been thinking of what I’m going to be [...]
