Cesare Paciotti Stiletto Sandals

These decadent Cesare Paciotti Stiletto Sandals I just ran into on Zappos are quite the eyecatchers. Extremely glamorous, 4″ heels, sculpted metal heels, first class leather used on top, …
The $654 price tag might look like a steep one at first but I’m positive that’s not the case. I mean — you’re getting the good […]

Dolce & Gabbana on Sale!

Okay I’m not even going to try and add a long story to this blog entry. Seriously, Saks has a great sales page, but while browsing it I stumbled upon 3 pretty sick deals on Dolce & Gabbana gear, all over 35% off, and all EXTREMELY hot!
My favorite is by far the Wool Crepe Jacket, […]

Pretty (and colorful!) Dries Van Noten Pumps!

My god I have just fallen in love with a pair of Dries Van Noten pumps. I don’t just like these. I’m not just considering buying a pair. I’m looking at them and I actually feel aroused. Literally. I’ll do the psycho-babble this obviously justifies tomorrow with my psychologist friend — for now I’m […]

Lia Sophia is revolutionizing the home party industry

“Home parties are a pyramid scheme!”“Home party consultants pressure their guests into buying overpriced merchandise.”“They always make you play silly games at home parties.”

Fall Shoes: Cap-Toe Heels

Cap-Toe Heels invoke serious 1940’s glamour. Think color blocks, clean lines and ultra-shiny, patent leather tips.

Made Boutique, a super cute and ultra-adorable store in Vermont that also, thankfully, happens to have an online shop, is having a big anniversary sale July 25-29th. Let’s hope that sale extends to the web.

Old Navy - Stripes Aplenty

I don’t know if it is the fact that we just celebrated the Fourth of July and I have Old Glory on my mind, but lately I have been drawn to stripes. It is a good thing Old Navy has an entire section of clothes on its website, labeled “stripes”. Who would have thought […]

Asos Stocks ONE (!) Playful Promises piece

Asos.com isn’t really a lingerie website but they’ve just stocked the Playful Promises Silk Butterfly Hipster. As you’ll see from this post on The Lingerie Post I’m a true fan of the brand, so if a large retailer stocks them, I’m here to enlighten the masses ;)!

Pure silk with ribbon tie at the back, pretty […]

Sexy Knitwear for the Summer!

Two very sexy knitwear pieces today, both from the absolutely fab asos.com website. They’ve got so many cool pieces but these two really are on top of the knitwear section if you ask me — both style-wise and value for money-wise. Whoever said knitwear wouldn’t be in this summer just fell on their head, by […]
