Doing A Little Go International Shopping

With the announcement that Rogan Gregory will be the eleventh Go International designer at Target, I decided to do a little Go International Shopping.  The great thing about everything included in this post is that nothing is over $44.99.  The shoes are a great price too at $24.99 and under.
Here are some interesting finds for [...]

Madonna- 4 Minutes

I intended to post this over the weekend when I write about Pop Culture and the like, but I was just too busy.
Madonna is releasing her newest CD tomorrow and I wanted to share with you her latest video 4 Minutes.
 

I thought it was pretty cool and the song is definitely ipod worthy.  Did you [...]

Back during the days of Wacky Wall Walkers, Cabbage Patch Dolls (the originals) and the Smurf’s, Jelly Shoes reigned.

Fashion Lesson #12 Petite Tubular Shape

A few weeks back reader Stacy left me the below comment on Fashion Lesson #4 Petite Proportion:
Hi

Happy Earth Day

It’s the other green day today.  Unlike wearing green for St. Patty’s Day and going to a pub to tie one on,  Earth Day revelers will be donning organic or recycled T-Shirts with quips like “Save The Humans” and will sip organic, free trade, shade grown coffee instead.  (I will be taking part in the [...]

Green Is The New "It" Bag

Forget the Kelly or the Birkin bag, eco-conscious fashionistas can be seen world wide carrying the latest “it” bag: Earth friendly totes, instead.
You can find them from Wal-mart to Nordstrom and everywhere in between.  Made from old fencing material, candy wrappers, or some other sustainable material, reusing is chic.
Here’s a rundown of some of my [...]

Return Of The Kids In The Hall

I’m so excited to hear that the Canadian cross dressing comedy troupe Kids In The Hall are coming to town on their 30 city two month tour.
For those of you who aren’t familiar, the group had a cult following during their run on television from 1988-1995.  They were famous for sketches like The Chicken Lady, [...]

A few weeks ago Judi requested another look at the Apple shape, this time concentrating on those Apples with a tummy.  After reviewing my choices from this original post, I felt it deserved an update.
