photo of the day.


i have been inspired by the beautiful weather we had here today! springy and bright! it made me think ... time to get a pedicure! sandal time is just about here!

these happen to be a favorite pair of shoes of mine. they are louis vuitton from spring '05. lacquer red with pink satin against the metallic silver. girly fun! i don't wear them too often.

it's all about chanel.

isn't it always??

a classic Chanel bag will last you a lifetime. but come on, we have our jumbo, got the shopper, jumped on the 2.55. what's next?

do you have the Maxi!?!?!

girls! this is the latest and the greatest from Chanel! It is a slightly bigger Jumbo - AKA the jumbo maxi.

there really aren't any true images online that i can show you and Chanel doesn't let you transfer the photos on their website, but you can see the bag here in red lambskin. gorgeous!

now on the flipside, how about a little bag you can take anywhere on the go?
Chanel introduced their classic wallet on a chain in fun pops of colors for spring/summer 2009!
a fun coraly red, turquoise, purple and, i believe, yellow!

i can dream!

and by the way, these are all available at saks! i have seen and drooled over them in person!

thinking about fall.

it always seems a bit early to be thinking about what to add to your fall wardrobe when spring flower are barely starting to sprout through the cold ground, but anyone paying attention to the fashion scene knows that fall is in the air.

i just looked at chanel's fall 2008 runway collection on style.com. it was a crisp and clean black and white story. collars and cuffs, pleats and ruffles. what isn't a girl to love! and the part that i liked best (but not everyone held the same opinion) was the pop of two colors - a minty green which was to represent a jade tone and a soft pink. i think i need a splash of that green in the next coming months!!


warm and cozy pinks
i do like this green, but maybe a i would go for a blouse or a bold cuff rather than the pants. just a thought ...

lady like elegance.

the basics.

i wanted to start with something that i love. the cle de peau concealer. this is my new "must have"!!

i heard about this product from a coworker. she was going around showing off how great her eyes looked. i think she was trying to get us all to say how beautiful she was, but all i was interested in was her "secret". she finally confessed that it was the cle de peau concealer. it's definitely an investment at a $70, but let me tell you .... IT'S WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!

dab a little under your eyes to erase fine lines and cover dark circles, and also works well on blemishes. it just feels good. so creamy and light! best things is that this beefy tube is going to last a year! it also made Marie Claire's list of 25 Top Beauty Products of the Year.

how did i ever live without this little guy?!

available at : saks and neiman marcus .

thanks for visiting my blog! i am super excited to start discussing my favorite things!

i am a total girly-girl! i love shopping and finding the latest and the greatest. that includes the latest bags, the hottest shoes, wardrobe essentials ... and lets not even start with cosmetics! lip gloss, lip gloss, lip gloss!!!!

i hope you enjoy my posts! please comment and share!
