Don't Go Breaking My Knee

This is a fun idea, helping make sports & activities cuter for future fashionistas!



Leggings with removable heart shaped knee pads! They are made from cushy waterproof Neoprene, the same stuff wetsuits are made out of. Do you think they'll make some for bigger girls?

Things I've learned from the Internet

I think we all know the internet has a lot of bad along with the good. There's spam, pop-ups, viruses... a lot of things to be wary of as we surf the wave of uber convenience. I know I've had my guard up about certain things. However, I think my biggest misconception was the fear I had of giving out my email address. In recent years I have pushed aside my fear and joined several mailing lists and have found them to be... *gasp* Informative, useful, and a general delight! I feel like I have a personal assistant telling me directly about online deals for products I actually care about (no, not penis enlargers... sorry). A little birdie tells me there's a sample sale in my town or a new store opening, celebrities show me new ways to get creative with my wardrobe, and of course I always know about the newest and hottest products. Man, this is not so shabby! here are a few faves:

A cool blog: chicks and bikes

Hot gals on hot wheels... and actually the fashion is pretty goo too. Bonus!

Some recent faves:

Holy Headband!

My current style muse is the bad girl socialite Blair Waldorf from the CW's Gossip Girl. Besides being completely obsessed with everything she wears, she's made me take a serious look at my lack of headbands. Such a seemingly simple accessory spices up her every outfit from ball gown to school uni. I share her genius (or costume designer Eric Daman's genius) with you...

























and a few hats, for good measure...






If you like what you see and can't afford Barney's or Bendel's, check out Anna Sui's new collection for Target inspired by Gossip Girl. Shop by your favorite character!

Ain't no heel high enough...

My new obsession.

Jewelery: Aussie Style!

Check out Oye Modern

This Sydney based online jewelery store is putting the fun in funky with is kooky selection. All the jewelry sold comes from emerging independent designers so you know you'll be getting truly unique pieces. Not exactly recession friendly, but definitely worth the splurge!

**Note: Change to USD at the top of the page for US dollar prices**

Will ship to USA for under $13 bucks! That's cheaper than shipping domestically with some stores!

Some of my faves:



Depth of field cuff, by re:vision (made with recycled camera components!)



Focus cuff, by re:vision



Pencil shaving necklace (blue) by Vic Mason



Married metal earrings by Melanie Ihnen



Whimsy ring by Kristina Brenke



Prism necklace by Eli

Happy Birthday Rachel Bilson!

J'Adore Charlize!

Charlize Theron is continuing her role as the face of J'Adore Dior. The scent will be celebrating it's 10th anniversary in September with a limited edition launch. A couple outtake pics from the shoot:

Fall Trends from InStyle

City

Animal prints, studded accessories and touches of leather add edge to an autumnal ensemble. Claire Danes (right) gave a rock and roll spin to a Burberry Prorsum dress with a tough black cuff and harness belt. Gweyneth Paltrow (center) urbanized her blazer and tank with leather shorts and a studded belt. And Rachel Bilson (left) went all out, adding sleek gloves and a studded cincher to her leopard-print Temperley London design.

Country

Plush knits, tweeds and fur-trimmed boots are made for fall, even for fashionistas far afield from the farm. City girl Diane Kruger (center) layered a Shetland cardigan over distressed jeans and rugged kicks, while Joy Bryant (left) hit the front row at Fashion Week in a Missoni cardigan and rolled-up boyfriend jeans. The consummate cosmopolitan, Claudia Schiffer (right), gave skinny denim a rural spin with a camel peacoat and lace-up moccasins.

Hidden Gem

I was perusing craigslist the other day, and I came across this post advertising gently used designer handbags. At first I thought it was some kind of scam (I've been burned by craigslist recently). But I checked out the website (where there is a feedback section) and I think it might actually be legit! Apparently the story is, this lady buys these purses, wears them a few times, then sells them and buys new ones. Again, could be a scam, but the bags look great! The highlight for me was a black studded Miu Miu number:

New Obsession

I want a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers #2140. Must get a pair before summer is over and the sun goes away from Seattle.
