I have always been weary of incorporating stripes into my wardrobe. But, since the design is in, at the moment, I cannot help but crave to own a sweater or two with just the right style of stripes. Here are some of my favorites:
Sometimes it doesn’t matter what designer or what store a piece of clothing is purchased from or admired, as long as it is easily and economically duplicatable. We all do it and the fact that it is encouraged through numerous blogs and magazines, make it even more fun. So, in light of this and that, this fall I am going to duplicate:
It’s too bad these amazing Alberta Ferreti designer dresses are for the Spring 2013 Collection. Wouldn’t it have been wonderful to show up in one of the beautifully designed dresses to a cocktail party or even New Year’s Eve party during this year’s holiday season?
The first time I saw the name Bottega Veneta was at the perfume counter at Nordstrom’s USA and I fell in love with the name and then the perfumes and when I dug deeper I discovered a whole new world of fashion and more from the luxury designers. Now, I pretty much live and breathe Bottega-Veneta and of course I had to include some of my favorite women’s fashion for Spring 2013 from here: Also very glad with a boutique store in San Francisco (near Union Square) 🙂
It goes without saying, most women love shoes and will probably shop for a pair at least once a month if not more. So, it goes without saying that I frequent shoe stores almost on a bi-weekly basis in an actual store and online on a daily basis. What can I say an addict is an addict 🙂 And for that, here are some of my favorite finds for this Fall to Winter season.

So, although I made plans to leisurely walk along the beach, I ended up curled up under a blanket on the couch and began shopping online for sweater and warm dresses.

I mean I circle department stores and small chain stores to study women’s reactions while testing new products or reading the back of one they have heard about and even exchanging opinions at the counter with those who have tried it before, but really what makes a woman finally settle on a product and stick to it, thinking it is the best thing for them? For example: I have used just about every makeup out there and tend to change the brand only when I sense the ingredients, which have been changed to “new and improved”, are no longer working for my face. As for hair products, I have also tried just about every shampoo and hair color out there based on of course what my hair needs are during different seasons throughout the year, as well as the quality my hair has become over the years.

I needed a little push to get motivated this past weekend, since my return from Europe, so what better way then to turn to fashion to get inspired. Here are some of my favorites from Marchesa Spring 2013 collection:
