R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Ok so this isn’t really about a specific style of clothing or store I love. But it is fashion- and wardrobe-related and I just have to get this off my chest. I work at a women’s clothing retailer on the side for a little extra clothing money and to be up on current trends, etc....

Fit for McQueen Target Designs for Spring

Alexander McQueen for Target

While most Spring/Summer 2009 fashion forecasts are focused on crisp whites, ultra-feminine pastels and bold color splashes, affordable chain store Target has the alternative for those who want to hold onto Fall's edginess well into spring.  Alexander McQueen's team-up collection with Target hits stores (and the Target website) March 1st, 2009, where I'm guessing it will sell out by its end date April 11th.  I usually don't bother with Target collections until pieces make it to the clearance rack, but I'll spend the extra pennies to make sure I get my hands on these grunge throwback designs.

Celeb Couple to Style-Watch: Ashlee Simpson and Hubby Pete Wentz

It's been reported that Ashlee Simpson gave birth to her baby this weekend, although it's also been reported that her people are denying it.  All I know is that on last night's Total Request Finale (Sad! Anyone else feel really old seeing that show end?), dad-to-be Pete Wentz was absent, cited to be at the hospital with wife Ashlee.  Seeing adorable Ashlee with child totally gave me baby fever, but her clothes - always a little edgy and in perfect sync with Wentz - are even more enviable, whether or not they're covering a baby bump.

Dress Season

With the holidays quickly approaching our calendars are filling up with parties. And if you’re like most normal women, you’ve got nothing to wear! As usual at this time of year we are meant to sparkle, shimmer and shine. This works for both your makeup and your attire. So break out the diamond studs and the glitter-filled eyeshadow. 

Here are my party picks for the dress season:

Marvelous Mary Janes

A few months ago I decided that the two pairs of shoes I wanted to add to my fall and winter wardrobe were a pair of fun Mary Janes with heels and some short boots. 

I got some cool booties but had to send them back as one arrived with a divot in the side. No one wants boots with a chunk of leather taken out! I did have success with my Mary Jane purchase and I’m all excited about this very of-the-moment style. So here are just a few of the cool pairs of Mary Janes that are out there for the taking right now.

The cropped-jacket trend has been in for over a year now, which could be why I am amazed at the number of women who are still unsure how to wear this trend.Read more >>
