The Little Black Dress

Yes every woman needs to have that little black dress, but why stop there? Is there ever such a thing as too many chic black dresses? Obviously not! According to Oscar De La Renta’s beautiful inspirations there are so many ways to do LBD. The best part of investing in the classic black is that it will never go out of style and it is appropriate for many occasions. From weddings to holiday parties to gala events, you can never go wrong with that little black dress.

Emerald Ladies

29 Nov

Runway colors don’t always take with the real world ladies but this season emerald has really made a hit. This rich color always reminds me old Hollywood glamor.  Perhaps it’s because of Vivian Leigh’s stunning green eyes or that famous emerald gown in Gone With the Wind that made every girl drool. Whatever the reason Emerald is here to stay and this classic  color is definitely a must have for the holiday season.

City Slips

3 Nov

I got a sample of these a few months back and I have to say, they are the best idea ever!

Invented by two New York party goers tired of trudging home at the end of the night in painful stilettos. City slips are a pair of uber comfy fold-able ballet flats that fit into a small zip pouch. The zip pouch not only fits easily into your purse but it also unfolds into a tote bag! So at the end of the night when you slip your hurting feet into these saviors you also have a tote bag to carry your heels home in.

It is the emergency first aid kit every girl should have in her purse!

The holidays are around the corner and these will make great stocking stuffer for sisters and girlfriends.
