The Color Orange


What do you think?
I was perusing through Etsy.com and stumbled upon these Vintage 70's 3 Color Leather  Gloria Vanderbilt Heel boots being sold by Ramblin' Vintage Shop for $99.00.  Size 9 only ladies.. sorry.

Normally I wouldn't really care for something that looks this orange but it could pass for Cognac...barely.  Be that as it may.. I still love anything from the 70's and wouldn't mind owning these babies.  There is something special about them

What Happened?

This top had the potential to be something beautiful.
Then the sleeves happened.....


From the back it doesn't look so bad, but dead on it looks like they took two separate shirts and tried to make it one.  Not a major fail, yet a fail all the same.







Amazingly I ALMOST want to buy it!  Go figure.


Gold Record Silk Top,  $79.00 @ lulus.com

Hells Yeah!!

I'm a sweater junky.  Always looking for the next best thing so when I came across this striped sweater from Heritage 1981 for only $24.90!!!!  I'll say it again....$24.90!!!!  it was a no-brainer as to whether I was gonna buy it or not.





DUH!!!
It's perfect in length, color, sex appeal for me and it's 100% cotton!  No acrylic.. hate the stuff.  So hard is it to find a sweater that's not too boring but not too over the top and actually be flattering. I am in love!

Why?

...would they make such a lovely boot!





I'm slobbering all over these

Pink Duchess Shakira 8 Cognac Buckle Up Platform Bootie,   


That is quite a mouthful of a name for a shoe.   They are MY color, and I adore the stitch work on the front.  The heel height is a little intimidating but I will still add them to my Savvycircle list.  



However I won't need to wait until they go on sale cause these babies are only $45 @ Lulus.com

A Weave of it's Own

So so sexy!  This Thatch Bust Halter dress by Akira Chicago Black Label is stunning. One look at it and BAM!!  You're stunned!  Normally black is my go to "sexy" color..or lack there of, but this powder mauve is stellar.  I'm surprised too with how flattering I find the weave of the fabric in the waistline. It gorgeous


It has a lot going on in the from with the weave and the draping but it all adds to it's beauty.  For a polyester frock I must say I really really like it.  I like it more at $64.90 :)

80's Calling


....yet again.  Just when we thought it was over.   I gotta laugh at this one because this dress is SO 1987 it's hard to take it seriously.


But seriously people... it is a hot dress.  This is Motels Sunset Strap dress brought to you buy the site I can't seem to stop citing, Nastygal.com for the crazy low price of $60.00.












 It's form fitting, it's colorful, it's got an added surprise going on when you're walking away.  Question is .. what club do you wear it to, cause rocking this to family dinners just seem so wrong.

I Likey!


BonaDrag.com isn't usually the first website I'd turn to for elegant, chic clothing, however they very much surprised me today.

This dress is from the label Shakuhachi and it almost seems odd to be found on a website showcasing beautiful oddities. (Don't take that literally, view the site and see the wonders they offer) I'm in love with the overall design of this dress.  Something about being almost completely covered with a slice a skin show is very sexy to me.  Yes.. I'm a "Less is More" girl. The lavender and red leopard print gives it that much more sex appeal. You know what gives it even more appeal than that.. the fact that it's currently 50% off on sale for $156.00.

When Designers Lose It.

I had great hopes for Jeffrey Campbell, not saying that I no longer do but someone please explain to me what happened below?




You can not tell me these aren't some of the craziest shoes you've seen!  From what I've seen of this shoe designer his shoes are getting wackier and wackier. Yes they're different and innovative but that does not make them cute.  They are perfect however for Nastygal.com where you can purchase them for the very Jeffrey Campbell price of $175.00.  You know.. if you're into this sorta thing.

Smooth As A Baby's Caboose

There is nothing like Silk. Real Silk. Gliding over your skin.  The flow of it when you walk.  Ahhhh.  It's nice.
So,...Why not look spectacular in it in this silk Racer Feather dress by Funktional? 


The color is amazing and you can not tell me the design isn't sexy!  This dress is so versatile it can be worn for almost any occasion. With heels it's perfect for an evening out, with flats it brunch appropriate. I want it!


Plus..how can you go wrong with a Silk dress for only $115.00??  NeedSupplyco.com

Pure Insanity!

So..This week I've officially re-started (I started it 2 times before and only made it to workout 3) Shaun T's Insanity workout.





I've done P90X and I gotta say, I love Tony Horton to death, but Insanity is exactly what the name says it is. I'm wondering how long it took the people in the video to be able to do those HIIT- High Intensity Interval Training for those who don't speak "Workout"- back to back like they do. I'm dying over here, however I am SO determined to get into shape by March because if The Arnold is coming back to Ohio next year I wanna be there.. looking good!

A Rise Above

Picture this.. the coldest of winter days, snow about 2.5 feet deep, a lil icy and slippery, however you just don't wanna break out the functional snow boots, and you passed up the multi-colored Tommy's.  You could step outta the house in these.



I was browsing Nastygal.com and stumbled upon these Josh Buckled Shearling Boot by Dolce Vita. Are they not my perfect color? And how cool are the buckles really!! I love that it still has the hiking boot sole so you get better traction on a wet day, but I guess the heel height (4.35") doesn't exactly add to their safety factor.
All in all they are still a beautiful boot. For $245.00 a pop however... I may wait til a sale.  http://www.shopnastygal.com/products/new/clothing/shoes/Josh-Buckled-Shearling-Boot.html

So Beautiful

I recently saw Adam Hurst and his Gypsy Cello play at my county's Witches Ball Festival. I was entranced and amazed. Definitely up my alley. I should've bought a cd. Soon...soon.

The Call of the Celts

I'm posting this one for... FFFFRRRRREEEEEEDDDOOOOMMM!!!!!  Was Willam Wallace even Celtic??  All I know for is ths Fob-ulous necklace from Modcloth.com appears t  be.




I've never been one for elaborate necklaces. Lord knows I didn't hop on the bib-necklace trend, but this one is kinda special. For something that is such a bargain price at $27.99 it really looks
like it cost so much more.  From the image provided by the website the gold doesn't
look like it was spray painted on aluminum.


I also really dig the fact that it is actually a watch and not just a pendant making it timeless and giving it heirloom quality.  My only gripe it that it is such a large piece. I would rather it small and dainty but how can you go wrong with something so damn pretty!

I Love The 80's!

My My...Talk about the ultimate 80's boot. 
These Dynamite Booties are courtesy of Lulu's.com.  Who...well many people don't love all things 80's but I am not one of those people.  These boots take me back to all my favorite movies.  From Valley Girl to Just One of the Guys. Fortunately for someone these boots are only available in a size 6 and are going for only $68.00.  Bring out your inner Jennifer Beals as Alex Owens in Flashdance and own it!

Oh My My!

I've never been one to hop on the fringe bandwagon.  I always thought it looked too "hippie/ I haven't washed my hair in weeks" -like,  but this Portola Sweater Wrap from Billabong has swayed me otherwise.


Despite my...about 25% Native American background I didn't see myself sporting anything this cultural either.  I am in love with this wrap!  The design, the colors, the pockets and yes... even the fringe.  I'm all over this one!

$79.00 @ Lulus.com

Roughin' It.

 
Pretty sweet no?    It seems everyone is hopping on the "heeled all weather" booties train lately.  The snow boots from Tommy Hilfiger are everywhere however, they remind me a lot of the Micheal Kors lace up Slicker boot he did a few seasons ago. --->
 Can't quite grasp why everyone is falling so much for these Tommy ones now...


 Well instead of costing you hundreds, you can get these Anne Michelle boots at for a whopping $44.00 @ Lulus.com.  It's freakin Aweseme!!

Another Bergdorf's Obsession

 So far.. there Fall looks are peaking my interest.  How lovely is this Missoni Chevron Knit coat???
You can't tell me those colors aren't magical... and yes I did just say "magical".


 $3'435.00.   Yep...I'll be picking that one up tomorrow..... right after I pay off my Beamer.... :(

http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod56140028&parentId=cat341602&masterId=cat341401&index=38&cmCat=cat000000cat000002cat000010cat340002cat341401cat341602

How Sweet!

How adorable is this Tier Ribbon Dress from PinkIce.com.

It's the perfect little party dress without being over the top sexy.  I love the layered tiers at the bust and how it pulls the eye to that area, not the legs being how short the dress is. So cute!

$37.99

Grecian A Go-Go

 So 63.00 smack-a-roos can't buy you THAT much @ Revolve.com, but it can get you this Go-Geous Grecian dress below!!!

It's LA MADE's Dolce Dress, it's 100% cotton, and a very flattering shade of gray..or "smoke" as they call it.
I can't get over that it's only $63.00. And if you take into account Revolve.com's free shipping...  Well that's a steal and a half in my book!

Starting to Question Myself

 Don't know why..



 ...but I adore this dress!   I'm not at all country (tho my dad has a lot of it in him), nor do I care for tiers, but I love this.  I'm pretty sure it's the old leaf green color and flowers that sway me.
Question now is.. do I buy it??

$29.99
