Birds of a Feather...

We've seen them everywhere this season... and in honor of Turkey Day, we wanted to pay tribute to the bird. Recently, we saw them rising up into hats, bringing back a vintage feel. These feathered hats remind us of something our great grandmother's would wear.

What's your favorite type of feather? Ours is the peacock feather, it is so distinct and unlike any other feather. And it is just glorious to look at... period.

Here's some feather looks straight from the runway:

Bath of Luxury

Every Fashionista deserves glamorous relaxation to soak her stiletto trotting feet. However, many women living in city apartments do not have the luxury of a spa-like bathroom. Hopefully, with these useful tips, you can turn any bathroom into your personal sanctuary.

First, turn off all electronic communication devices. How do you expect to stay calm with your style savvy friends bbm-ing you in the other room. While you're at it, turn off the lights and light some candles. Find a scent that you like and fill your bathroom with it by simply lighting a candle. Don't forget to put on some music that will help you unwind.

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles! Our personal favorite is Sephora's Bubble Bath. This stuff is so luxurious, creates lots of foamy bubbles, and it moisturizes and softens skin while you soak. We like vanilla best, but if that's not your scent of choice, don't fret. It is available in nine other scents.

Fill your bath shelves with your favorite bath products to clean up with. We love this one by Vera Wang. Also, save some extra money by making your own rose water. Rose water works as a great toner for fair and dry skin! When your done with your bath, lather your body in this buttery lotion for silky smooth skin. Afterward, wrap yourself up in a cozy robe and flip through your favorite fashion magazine.

Enjoy!

Looks we Love...

LADYLIKE LUELLA

A collection filled with the structured jacket, asymmetrical tiered ruffle skirts, the net veil, big satin hair bows, pearl-chain handbags, and the tulle & ruffle gloves... who could ask for more?



Walking in High Heels

Models wobbled down the runway, trying their best to balance on giant platforms and teeteringly high heels at the Spring 2009 Collections. With shoe designs becoming more and more outrageous, do you secretly desire any of these walking disasters? And do you think you would actually be able to wear them long enough to show them off?

some of the extremes:


Dolce & Gabbana



Alexander McQueen, Dior, & Marc Jacobs

the one's we can't stop drooling over:



Valentino, Mui Mui, Nina Ricci, & Versace
