Monday, March 8th, 2010My new favorite piece of jewelry is this multi-chain cross by Forever 21. It’s a total urbanized version of what my childhood idol, Mr. T would wear and maybe that’s why I love it so much!

Hello, Sunshine.
Sunday, February 28th, 2010Yellow and I normally don’t get along. I don’t think I’ve owned anything yellow until a week ago when these shoes showed up. When I want to wear something bright and cheery, I stick to white. But, I am all about embracing change. When I first spotted these heels, I had the typical reaction that […]
Nixon Time Teller P Watch
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010
It must be Watch Week around here. On Monday, I was waxing poetic about Swatch and today, it’s Nixon!
Last month, I was standing around at Nemo when I looked down at one of the producer’s arms (Hi, Megan!) and noticed this watch. Quite dramatically, I reached for it and demanded to know where she got it. […]
Swatch Colour Codes and POP Magazine Collaboration
Sunday, February 21st, 2010A few months ago, I was contacted by POP Magazine and asked to participate in a special contest.

A.F. Vandevorst Silver Shoes
Sunday, January 31st, 2010I first found out about A.F. Vandevorst back in 2000 when I bought a book featuring Belgian fashion designers. I was immediately captivated by his constant use of red cross imagery as a signature throughout his fashion line. When I came across these silver beauties on the sale rack at Halo, I knew they had […]
The Week in Pictures: 1.15.10
Friday, January 15th, 2010Wow, what a week! I finally got to see Cool as Ice again which is truly my favorite movie ever. One of my 2010 resolutions was to watch more movies because I’ve barely seen any in my lifetime and I’m trying to make up for lost time. Though Cool as Ice was the highlight, […]
The Flat Iron Diaries
Monday, January 11th, 2010
I am one of those people with fairly straight hair, but sometimes, fairly straight just won’t cut it. There are times where I want my hair to look perfectly sleek and in those moments, I reach for my flat iron.
Unfortunately, while I was vacationing in Florida back in November, my flat iron died quite suddenly. It’s […]

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010I’d like to thank Forever 21 for advertising on my blog this month. As I was scanning their site today, I pulled together a few of my current favorite items that I thought I’d share with you: circle accented mesh necklace, abstract art dress, sequin suspender skirt, metallic trim military jacket, lacquered pyramid bangle, belted […]
The ModCloth ‘Nubby Twiglet’ Dress
Thursday, December 31st, 2009
I have a special announcement to make….ModCloth just named a dress after me! What an epic way to end 2009! Of the dress, ModCloth says:
Named after one of our favorite fashion blogs, this little black dress will help you market yourself as a master of entrepreneurial style. Crisp, curving seams contour the bust and the subtly […]
A Crazy Year Calls For Crazy Shoes.
Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009When I was in Scottsdale a few weeks back, I stopped by Barneys and tried on these Proenza Schouler heels..and then promptly waved goodbye. But, I woke up the very next day haunted by them. When a pair of shoes is the first thing on your mind when you wake up, you know that it’s […]
Moleskine Colour a Month Notebooks
Monday, December 14th, 2009Do you need a burst of color to liven up your life? I know I sure did. For the last few years, I’ve been using Moleskine yearly planners to keep my life in order. Though, one issue I noticed this year is that it was way too easy to not get tasks completed and to […]
ModCloth Favorite Finds: November
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009I was taking a peak at ModCloth this weekend and they have so much good stuff right now! As you can probably tell by my favorite picks, I am on a HUGE uniform-inspired kick. I can’t quite decide whether I want to be a waitress, join the military or fly the friendly skies!
Items: Pan Am […]
House Industries Posters
Monday, November 16th, 2009Type addicts rejoice! This weekend, I was browsing the House Industries website and came across these beautiful hand-printed posters. They were way too good to ignore so I ordered a handful in varying sizes for my office. Which are your favorites?

Style Essentials
Sunday, November 1st, 2009Do you have a reliable arsenal of wardrobe basics that you depend upon, day after day? I know that I do. I started thinking of the tried and true pieces that are necessities in my wardrobe and compiled a list. Some have been in my possession for as little as two weeks and some as […]
My Feet Have Found Their Soulmates
Monday, October 19th, 2009These wedge ankle booties truly are my dream shoes come to life. And even better, they remind me of something a female version of Marilyn Manson would wear. Black, lug soled, wedged to the extreme and fairly comfortable considering the height, I doubt that I will be taking these off any time soon.
Readers: What are […]
Heartschallenger: Have Treats, Will Travel
Thursday, October 1st, 2009Last month, I headed over to the Lower East Side for the last ever Ruff Club which was mobbed by the coolest kids in town. At around 2 am, the sea of kids (mostly swathed in layers of black avant garde clothing) parted when a mysterious pink truck complete with hearts and unicorns on its […]
If You’re Hungry, Stop Reading This: Dean & DeLuca
Monday, September 14th, 2009Over the years, I’ve made ten separate trips to New York but I’m embarrassed to say that until this most recent stay, I had never set foot inside of a Dean & DeLuca store. I’d heard people constantly praising the New York locations as if they were a sacred place where one would make a […]
2XL Headphones
Sunday, September 6th, 2009
2XL, Skullcandy’s secondary line of headphones has been out on the market for a few months now. With their trendy, youth-centric graphics and wallet friendly prices (averaging from $10.00 to $40.00), they’re bound to be a huge hit.
For a big chunk of last year, I worked closely with the Nemo HQ team on the development of […]
I Heart ModCloth
Saturday, August 29th, 2009Last week, Gala and I met up with Susan, the founder of the hugely successful indie fashion retailer ModCloth. She also brought along two of the buyers from her team and we spent the muggy summer evening in the East Village learning more about their buying processes, how ModCloth got started, what the trade shows […]
