Up The Wattage

Live life colorfully, but dress in black and white. There's something familiar yet fresh about this dual-colored look. A patriotic-tinged star print and a Lolita-esque bow up the wattage on what could've veered into basic black-and-white territory.

Given the 70-degree weather in the forecast, today's outfit feels right on target for a spring style statement. If the pants are a bit loud for your comfort zone, opt for a print-free black wide-leg style for a similar effect. But, remember reader, life is short. Try the freakin' star print!

Sleuthin'

I've been crazy busy flittin' around that I haven't had time to touch the good ole' blog. I missed you guys and am back in action, baby! Today's look is all about the timeless, sleuth appeal of a trench. I see a high-fashion-incarnate of Olivia Benson wearing this down the streets of Manhattan. But with the Stuart Weitzman thigh-highs and Saint Laurent top-handle, she is heading to VOGUE, not SVU.

How Deep is Your Love!?

Happy Valentine's Day, chickadees! I hope you're wining and dining - whether it is Chinese takeout on your couch with cheap-ass Chateau Diana wine, or out and about all fancy-schmancy at Le Cirque with 30-dollar cocktails. You might be alone. You might be with someone. But remember - who the fuck cares? You're wearing this Christopher Kane swoon-worthy dress, a heart-speckled Edie Parker clutch, and dominatrix Dior boots that I drool for. Who needs a boo thang when you look damn good!?
