Holiday Gift Idea #2

Hello lovelies!  I recently came across this book in The USA Today newspaper, and thought it would definitely make a wonderful gift idea for those interested in fashion or design.  This book 100 Unforgettable Dresses offers a gorgeous spread on iconic dresses throughout the years. The author, Hal Rubenstein is the fashion director of InStyle and one of its founding editors.  Details from Amazon: 

"Featuring looks from the runway, film, television, the red carpet, and the worlds of royalty and politics, this book celebrates the staying power of these gorgeous, sleek, sultry, and outrageous creations as well as the lasting impact they’ve had in fashion, popular culture, and our own lives."

One of the dresses that caught my eye right away was SJP in Versace worn on Sex and the City!  Remember this stunning gown?

 Or how about Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman? 

 This book offers a wide range of breathtaking gowns to ones that are less attractive but definitely memorable!  You can buy this book on Amazon here.   It's priced at a little over $20 so not to bad of a deal if your giving or receiving! ; )

Have a lovely day girls!  And don't forget to enter my $100 Shopbop giveaway!  Enter here before it's too late!

Street Style

Girls, by now, you should all know my love for street style!  I could probably spend hours looking online at all the amazing and inspiring street style photos out there!  Elle.com usually offers some great looks.  I thought you might want to take a look for yourself!

The first girl, above, is probably my favorite from the bunch.  She looks effortlessly cool to me!

I love the tights that the girl is wearing below!  Tights are a fun way to still show your individual style during the colder months when you have to be bundled up in coats.  There are so many different styles, colors, and patterns out there, you can still look chic in the cold!

With it being so bitter cold lately, I was drawn to the girls sporting warmer pieces, like sweaters, cardis, and coats! 

Her cardigan below, looks so cozy and warm!  Cardigans like that, have been all I've been wanting lately!  This cold weather is just so miserable!  But I think it would be less dreadful, with warm pieces like that one!

This one below maybe might not be the warmest of the bunch, but I think her look is so simple, and yet she looks so pretty!  It makes me miss my long hair!  Those jeans are amazing, are they not?

Also, while looking on Elle's website, I couldn't help but notice SJP on their latest cover!

 In the interview with Sarah, it talks about how she's dealing with aging.  I just want to say, I think she's again beautifully!!!

Hope you're having a lovely weekend girls!

Carrie Bradshaw!

Who doesn't love the fashion styles of Carrie Bradshaw?? Now I know she has made a few questionable choices throughout the show...lol....but mostly they are fantastic! I've been a huge fan of the show for a while now. I have all the seasons on dvd, and of course saw the movie on opening night, and bought it as soon as it came out!! I love that green dress and coat she wears below in a scene with Mr.Big!! All the clothes were great in this movie though, not just the ones worn by Carrie!

I for one though, did not like the huge thing she wore on her head for her 1st try at a wedding with Mr.Big (in the movie). The dress was great though! Here below are pics of SJP out and about in real life. I especially like the one on the left and how her hair is done!!!
