Loving These Vintage Pieces ..

There's something so appealing about this cuff. The colors & the beads together would be chic vintage, especially with a black dress. Love the length.

All of these pieces are at [net-a-porter].

Keeping with a vintage theme, you could wear this Lanvin brass ring with the above cuff.

I would top off the cuff & bracelet with 2 or 3 of these Chan Luu sterling silver bracelets going up the other arm.

Or... I'd add in this McQueen gold tone brass cuff instead of the above bracelet or even do both.

High Street Shoes at Net-a-Porter

Bibi shoes by Christian Louboutin. Love the neutral color & the chunky heel. So comfortable & easy to walk in.

Alexander McQueen off-white braided leather sandals. These are just beautiful.

7 inches of glory with these Dvea patent-leather platform sandals.

See the vast shoe collection at [net-a-porter].

See Robert Cavalli Designs on the Milan Cats

See RC on the Milan cats. There's quite a few dark pieces, but it is a winter collection after all.

I love these gowns. I'm totally all for gowns and texture.

Want Eyelashes? Get FusionBeauty StimuLashFusion Intensive Night Conditioning Lash Enhancer

I was seeking out a new mascara at the makeup counter and the makeup consultant told me he was using FusionBeauty's StimuLashFusion product and let me tell you, he had nice eyelashes. I have eyelash envy! It's about $100 & takes 4-6 weeks to work. See product info. at [sephora.com].

How High Will You Go? Vote at Jimmy Choo

Jimmy Choo wants to know how high you prefer your heels. Me, of course, I chose the highest skyscraping heights they've got! Flat shoes are a four letter word to me! And, apparently, I'm not alone.. Skyscrapers are beating out everything else. Vote at [Choo].

What We've Been Waiting For .. Versace on the Runway

Support the Cause, Buy MAC's Viva Glam2 Lady Gaga Lipstick & Educate Yourselves Through "A Loving Spoonful"

When you buy MAC & Lady Gaga's Viva Glam2 lipstick or lipglass all proceeds go to men, women & children living with HIV/Aids.

About the cause ... Lady Gaga and MAC have launched an official website at [vivaglam.com] where you can learn more & watch a video clip of Lady Gaga who will be leaving another message March 1st. You can also sign up to help the cause as well. An official movement is starting March 17th.

About the lipstick ... I picked it up today & I love the color. It's nice & creamy. You can wear it a few different ways.. alone with beige lipliner, with Lancome's Color Design "Color Goddess" or with Lancome's Juicy Tube "Sun Bronze" over it or you can be really risky and wear them all together for a beautiful long lasting caramel hue. I love it.

Buy the lipstick for your girlfriends, mothers, sisters, grandmothers. My favorite gal at the MAC counter told me over $200 million has been raised so far & all the money goes directly to the people affected. I'm glad Lady Gaga is taking this on because some people really have no idea about any of this.

I fully support all organizations that support HIV/Aids causes. It's very close to my heart because when I thought my life was totally "unfortunate" I volunteered at [A Loving Spoonful] to educate myself & help as best as I could. "A Loving Spoonful" is a charity that sponsors & receives funding to support people affected by HIV/Aids who require a special diet. Definitely see the ALS website & help out any way you can. The organization has several hundred volunteers & is a fantastic family of people which has the entire community & local businesses involved in fundraising. I love them all.

So, much love to Lady Gaga, MAC Cosmetics & A Loving Spoonful.. xoxo

Loving the 60s Beats of my New Corks ..

I finally got around to picking up these print Paulina Corks by Bebe.. they are so divine.. Get them while you can; they're a best-seller.. I just got mine in my size, in time; they were sold out everywhere! They also come in black, white, & gold.

What would you wear them with? Shorts, jeans, tights & a cute dress. They're only $98 USD! I thought they would be tricky to walk in, but they're not.. and they're comfy. Although I don't recommend you take to the streets in them.. you will wreck your shoes doing that & possibly have a bad spill.


I also tried on these & totally loved them. On the left is the Fiona Cork Wedge pump & on the right is the Betty Patent & Cork slingback. The prices are really good on these too. I loved the nude Betty Patent Cork heel. The color is a beauty.
