Mod Monday

Oh hello! We're just stopping by to brighten up your Monday! We think this might do the trick...

It's the Lisa dress from our Blue Skye Collection. What a fun and revealing dress with a retro vibe!  It's perfect for anyone seeking something a little bit more unique or different.

The high collar has a really look to it. It really pairs well with the bell shape front cutout. Combined with the tank style, this dress looks like something a go go dancer would wear. So reminiscent of the past yet fresh and exciting! You'll look anything but old fashioned!

We're in love with the lacing. It really adds something special. And the detail on the neck? So great! If you are looking for the opposite of basic, you'll find it in this dress. This is a two tone dress. That means you can choose both the color of dress and the details. Make the Lisa your own creation!

That's all for today! And remember to stop by the blog every Monday for an outfit of the week!

Food based skin and hair care!

Expensive body care products getting you down? Nothing left in your budget for pricey facial care products? How frustrating! You can really rack up a huge tab in the body care aisle and half of the products you try don't even work!

We have a solution. Head on over to the grocery store or even your pantry! That's right. Some of the food we eat can benefit our bodies in other ways. And honestly, they work better than any old lotion or potion. It's time to get back to nature.

We love to use coconut oil for cooking purposes. It's a healthy alternative to the other products on the market. Did you know it also makes a wonderful moisturizer. No kidding! It's a bit greasy going on but one it sinks it, you skin is left incredibly soft. You can even use it as a facial moisturizer! It also can be used in the hair. Apply to the bottom portion of your hair, let it sit for 2-3 minutes and rinse. You are left with moist, frizz-free locks. Make sure you use pure, organic coconut oil for the best results.

They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away. You better believe it! The apple is a powerful fruit. One of its most beneficial forms is raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar. This can be found in the natural section of your grocery store. It makes a delicious salad dressing. But it can also be used as a toner. Add some water and apply with a cotton ball. It naturally balances your skin's PH levels. It can also be combined with water and used a rinse in your hair. It will  naturally remove product buildup and leave you with soft locks.


Are you already suffering from the dry, itchy skin you get during cold weather? We sure were until we discovered this simple secret. Run a hot bath and add in few cups of milk! You heard that right. Lactic acid is a natural skin softener. It works like a dream. Follow up with a a bit of exfoliation and a moisturizer. You'll be ready to face the dry winter wind in no time.

Do not underestimate the power of your pantry. It has so much to offer! What is your favorite beauty product from the kitchen? Honey? Maybe oatmeal? Share your secrets with us!

We're cheering you on!

Happy Monday! And welcome back to the blog! We have something special in store for you all this week. Make sure you check back on Wendsday! Until then...

Check out the Priscilla Dress! Short, fun and flirty! this little dress is something special. The basic tank style top gives this dress a great basic look. It going to look great on many body types. You really can't go wrong! 

This dress has a higher waistline. It draws your attention to your natural waist and is rather slimming! The waistline leads down to a cute little circle skirt. It's perfect for twirling, if you ask us! At the photo shoot, we got a sort of cheerleader vibe from the Priscilla. That's what inspired Sophie's pigtails!! 

Turn around to either side and you'll get quite the surprise! There is a cutout! Cutouts are very in right now. And we love how these look! This dress is ready for spring and summer. 

Have one made just for you! This dress is available in dozens of colors. The Priscilla is a whole lot of fun!

Menswear for the ladies

What is one of our favorite fall trends, you ask? Menswear for women. Can you go wrong? We think not! We love the blend of both masculine and feminine aspects to create this classy look. We love to incorporate patterns like herringbone and looks like vests and jackets into an everyday look for work or play. Lets get started!

Wow! This Lanvin dress is a perfect mash up of both men's and women's fashion. The sharp, crisp lines are rather masculine. They mock the look of a suit jacket. And the pattern is seen in both men's and women's fashion. But the waist accent and top of the dress are very feminine. What a great dress for work or a semi formal event. Try adding very feminine accents like pearls or a pop of bright color to make a real statement.

Menswear isn't all suits and plaid. The casual side of menswear also works for women. This Alexander Wang sweater is a perfect example of that. It has an oversized, very casual look to it. It's perfect for casual Saturdays. Pair it with leggings to complete the comfortable look. Wear your hair in curls and accessorize!

Shorts?! In fall and winter? Yes! We love this look! Pair a super tailored pair of shorts like this pair by Sandro Poupee with a peter pan collared button up shirt. Wear a pair of tights underneath the shorts to make it more fall appropriate. Wear your hair up in a top knot and accessorize with a headband. What a fun look for running errands or going to lunch with friends!

Winter is coming

Temperatures are dropping! Winter may be a ways away but it is certainly cold out there. Bundling up is a must. Don't be a fool! We're sharing some of our favorite bulky scarves with you today. Maybe one will make it in to your winter ensemble?

Ah. Doesn't that look cozy? We love this scarf by Need Supply. The varying shades of grey are very pleasing to our eyes. And it will pair with many different coats and outfits. A winter staple for sure. Try pairing it with a cream colored winter hat.

This scarf has a different sort of style to it. And we are huge fans! You can find this tassle scarf at Urban Outfitters. The mix of blues is just gorgeous. This piece will go with more specific colors and looks. Try pairing it with black, grey and even yellow. Either way, it's a whole lot of fun!

Now this is more like it! A big, chunky knit scarf. You cannot face cold weather without one. We are truly in love with this Paula Bianco two tone scarf. It's basic and will fit in with almost every coat or jacket. And the little tassles? What a great touch!

Hey Jack Frost? Yeah, go ahead and bring it on! We're ready for you!

Shiny!

Welcome back! We had a great weekend in Chicago at International Mr. Leather. And can you believe it?  It's already time for the outfit of the week!

Check out the Yvonne Dress. It's a great basic tank dress. It's got a classic look to it. It has a great, deep neckline. It has a simple and basic look to it.

Turn to the back and you'll see just how sporty it is! It has that great Y or racer back style to it. Isn't it neat? This dress certainly has that athletic look. It's great for those of you who don't want that frilly look!

We love that seamless look of latex. We don't like to break up the shiny latex look with a zipper. But we can't not have a zipper. That would be impossible! So we hid it on the side of the Yvonne.

This dress is available in tons of colors. So many options! And don't forget about our made to measure option. We'll make a custom dress for you. Pretty exciting, right? It's the perfect basic dress! You know you want some new shiny stuff! The Yvonne is calling your name!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!! Are you all decked out in you Halloween gear? We sure hope so! Here is a sampling of our favorite creepy clothing and accessories.

Everyone has that great Halloween shirt. A great daytime Halloween look.  It's an easy way to get show your Halloween spirit on the weekend or out running errands. Plus so much fun! We think this one by Stella McCarthy is the perfect blend of spook, fun and cute! We love that little bat guy! And we think this shirt will totally work all year round.

This is such a fun, delicate bracelet! It's an easy way to subtly add Halloween into your everyday look. We would just add on to your arm along with your watch and a few other bracelets! It's a nice way to sport classy Halloween jewelry. And hey, maybe it will go with your costume!

Heading to a dressier Halloween party? Or grabbing cocktails or pumpkin ale on Hallows eve? Ditch your regular purse and take this clutch instead! It's so cool and different! You're sure to get a few questions and compliments. We love bring in that Halloween feel but in a more high fashion way!

Get dressed up!

Halloween is only 3 days away! Have you picked out your costume yet? Well you better get to it! Time is a wasting! Here, let us help you out. Let's have a sexy Halloween!

If you had the choice to go as Betty Page for Halloween, wouldn't you say yes?! Such an iconic, sexy look. And if you are willing to be scantily clad, it's easy to pull off. The hair is a must. If you're not willing to cut your locks to get that classic bangs look, a wig will always suffice! You need a nice red lip and heavy eyeliner.

As far as the outfit is concerned, how about a corset? Do you happen to have one of ours hanging around? We do love this one. Very Betty! If not, any sexy bra, pantie and garter set will do! Check your local boutique for those items. And some stockings and a whip will really finish this look off. Even a ball gag if you're feeling especially devious.

Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee! Well, you can be. We're talking about Sandy from Grease! This is a really easy costume to pull off. A black top and leggings are the two main pieces. Then add in big gold hoop earrings and red hot stilettos. Pout your lips and add some red lipstick. Tease your hair out big and sexy. And bam! Tell me about it, stud.

Now if you want to kick it up a notch, add some latex! We would swap out the black leggings for our skinny jeans! We think they add even more to this rock and roll costume. And you can wear them over and over again after Halloween is over.


Meow! What about cat woman? Such a classic! Find yourself a good, black bodysuit. Try American Apparel or even Target! Or just a black leotard would work. Dig around for your sexiest black heeled boots and long gloves. Add a pair of ears and some vampy lipstick. You're a regular old cat burglar!

Now, we would do away with the leotard. Oh yes! Instead we'll swap out for our catsuit with hater top. We think it's much more cat woman! And who doesn't want a catsuit? It's a classic!

Be sure to share all your Halloween costumes with us on twitter! We can't wait! Let the mischief and fun begin!

Ready or not!!

Happy Monday to you! We're ready for this week, are you? Ready or not, here it comes! And this week's OOTW too.

It hugs every curve and gives you a wonderful shape. As far as length, it's a good in between; not too short, not too long. It's really going to show off both your arms and legs! Flaunt it!
