What Does Every Blogger Need?

A Sonystyle Bloggie Touch Camera! I got mine and went crazy….with a 3.0″ touch screen, 12.8 megapixel still camera and web-friendly 1080p HD video, I had a slice of heaven.  In a shade of hot pink (so fem!), I was ready for anything during a recent jaunt to Italy (stay tuned for a cool video). Every blogger needs one for quick moments of inspiration, or to video a fabulous runway show, or simply to capture a flash of fashion whimsy.  Starting at

The Divisive Simplicity of Email Love

Thank you to Yahoo! Mail for sponsoring this post about staying connected. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do. When did email become such a big deal?  Such an integral part of our everyday professional (and personal) lives?  When did it become okay to send job offers via email isntead of snail mail, or “it’s not you, it’s me” communciations electronically?  For me, there are still a few

Beach Babe — Ready for Action!

Lands’ End Canvas asked us to do a post related to being ‘beach ready’.  So, I commenced the search for the perfect bathing suit and decided it was a two-piece with ruffles and shirring (to create a bust) and side bikini ties (to create of an hourglass shape)….and of course, papaya coloring would finish off the sunkissed look.  The better surprise was the straw tote (approx 14″H x 15″W) that can accommodate everything

Shopping ‘in the year of our Lord‘ the Internet and Bing is like putting a drug addict on the assembly line at a cocaine factory, or placing a freshly cut piece of filet mignon in front of a lion, or even perhaps like

Basking in Boatneck Sunshine

Lands’ End Canvas provided the option to purchase a top and then tell you about it.  I scooped this Striped Heritage Boatneck Sailor Tee and wanted to show you a few different ways to rock the same top… The looks go all the way from Mexico vacation-ready to Sunday ladies Brunch to everyday/Friday casual.  Key style insights here: nautical-themed, the dark-colored items are fitted/shorter, and mix-up the prints!

baby phat…But Not Quite Grown-Up

You already know I’m a Lucky Magazine Alpha Shopper, so I get the opportunity to receive and review certain merchandise.  For the most part, the items received are fun and in line with what I expect….not this time.  I received a pair of Paula baby phat wedge booties in black and wasn’t quite sure how to workthem.  I admit I frequently use these freebies as a time to expand my style bandwidth and see how to make some things work,

Is ‘Affordable Luxury’ An Oxymoron?

I don’t think luxury was meant to be affordable, or at least not ‘accessible’ for all…..right?  Of course!  Otherwise, it would be commonplace not luxury.  While I believe this to be the case, I found a website Jewelry Boxes 123 that may buck the trend. Before I go there, answer this question: how do you store your jewels and other precious baubles?  If you’re like almost 30% of women and roughly 60% of men then your answer is, “On my
