A new fave website

I was awaken in the wee hours of the morning, so I thought I would check out cute clothes to make me feel better about the long day ahead.

These are from www.modcloth.com http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Dresses/Romance+and+Intrigue+Dress

It looks a little matronly at first, but it's adorable.

 

 

 

This would be flattering on so many figures and it has the zipper detail in the back.

Perfection!

Love this babydoll.  Not for every figure, but if you're the lucky one...great!

I found all these dresses in the sale section!  Nothing over $30!  Check out the website, it's great!

High Fashion tidbit

Flashback to late 70's

 This was an interesting blog.

Tights!

So I mentioned in the last blog about Kourtney Kardashian's fab tights on the Today Show.  I can't stop thinking about them!  I found out what brand they are.  They are Wolford Tights.  http://www.wolfordshop.com/vm/StoreHome/?viewType=01&cid=2&nsctrid=c2VtbKd1c6c1MzMyMzUyM1gxMTA3MTRDMTAyNjExMjk3N1RTVVOn

Wishing I had the legs for these.

They have Hosiery and lingerie.  However, it's a bit pricey.  Here are some things I love on their page.
I love these chevron tights.

 These green python are adorable.

Here's the cheap version.

 These are $5.88!  I found them on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/007Lingerie-Leopard-Print-Tights/dp/B001DBKXFM

This color is gorgeous!

Get out there ladies and buy some tights!  It's getting colder!  Pair them with a cute dress, or skirt, or even try them with shorts.

Kardashian girls

Many people have different "looks".  Some people are boho chic, some casual, some hipster, some mod, preppy, etc... I have decided I fit into the Kardashian group.  Ok, I can't wear the towering heels or have the bods of some of the girls, but I love their style.  Some of the the things they wear are outrageous, revealing, or whatever, but I usually adore what they wear.  One of my most favorite reasons is BLACK!  Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe always are wearing some black. You will always see me in black.  It's probably the hairstylist in me, but my eye always goes for black in a store.

Here is what they wore on the Today show this morning.  I am in love with Kourtney's outfit!  Leopard print tights???  Hello!

Some more winter trends

I've been slow at blogging lately.  I guess the Holidays have been consuming me.  Well, I still live and breathe fashion, so here is some more winter fashion tips I've found. 

1. Winter coats!  Yes, here in Monterey there isn't too much use for a heavy coat, but there are those few times we need something to keep us warm.  But. for everyone else... Peacoat!  It's the best winter coat out there.  They're warm and flatter everyone.  They come in all shapes and colors too.

 This one is so cute!  It's different than the average black one.  $755 at http://www.net-a-porter.com/?cm_mmc=GoogleUS-_-Brand%20-%20Alone%20EX_US-_-ALONE%20-%20Netaporter-_-netaporter
This one is out of my budget, but you get the idea.  You can find tons at other affordable stores.  But check out that website, they have cute designer clothing.

2. Tights!  I love opaque tights.  I know most of us think of tights as something fancy or uncomfortable, but now a days they are very practical and casual.  I am digging the shorts over tights look right now.  Remeber they were all over Spain?

Now these might not flatter my figure.  I have tree trunk for legs, so I would go for black.  But, the look is fab!  You can find tights anywhere.  Target!

3 .Berets!  I am trying to figure out this trend right now.  I love the way these look and I have bought a couple.  I'm working out to see how they fit.  I think I have a big head. :)  But, try it!

4.lace!  I love lace.  Yes, it's not for everyday, but try to add a little lace somewhere when going out or for your next Xmas party.

I love these looks!  Yes, not for the average person, but you can get ideas from it.

So those are just some of the latest winter trends.  More to come!  Check out winter makeup trends to come soon!

Eyes!

Once again I was reading my favorite magazine Allure and saw these new eye makeup ideas to try.  I love these threes looks!

At a Vera Wang show a makeup artist applied white shadow in the corners of the models eyes.  It draws light and creates a subtle glow.  It also brightens the eyes too.    I absolutely love the gold eyes!  You can use an iridescent gold or silver to perk up eyes.
