Looking forward to fall.

I took a peak at Leanne Marshall's fall collection and it is stunning. It's no fluke that she won season 5 of Project Runway.

Flat-out Perfect

Last night I promised my best friend that I would stop buying shoes until after my wedding. It seems she noticed I had a bit of a "problem." I foolishly agreed, and it figures that the perfect flat shows up first thing next morning to taunt me.



Maybe I can convince her I need new honeymoon shoes. It wouldn't exactly be a lie.

Indian Summer

I hardly need another dress, but how perfect would this be for a casual summer day?

Runway vs. Real Way, Part II

After lusting over the Miu Miu t-strap raffia pump in their Katie Holmes ad campaign, I had to try them for myself.

Here it is on the runway:


and on Katie:


Sadly, they were not produced in the beautiful red satin so I had to "settle" for the black. I'm still undecided as to whether these are keepers though.






See for yourself at Tender.

The perfect Sunday Brunch.

I'm not the first to blog about this and I certainly won't be the last. California native Judy Kou founded the Sunday Brunch dress shop after moving to NYC and realizing that fashion was far more interesting to her than a life in medicine. Lucky for us! Her discerning eye for up-and-coming designers makes for an exquisitely edited boutique among a sea of look-alike online stores.

My favorites from Sunday Brunch:

Runway vs. Reality: Dior Safari Sandals

So not long ago I blogged about these:


I'm a much bigger fan of the black than I am of the runway red.


Well, this is what they really look like:



Not bad, eh? The only difference I noticed is in the ankle ties. They made them much longer than the runway & sample versions, but I can always cut them. I just need to add a pad in front to keep my narrow feet from slipping forward and I'm good to go!

Major Dry Spell

I haven't posted lately because I haven't found anything exciting, except maybe this apron.


Too bad it can't pass for a dress. At least you can cook in style.
Find it on Etsy.

PS - I am counting down until these arrive in May. If they work out I'll post some of my own photos.
