I had planned on publishing this posts months ago before Dame Elizabeth Taylor’s untimely death. Unfortunately, I was not able to celebrate the star during her lifetime. Ms. Taylor was adored for her sensuality, fashion know-how and chutzpah. Her big doe eyes, perfect coiffed hair, dainty mouth, and mole made her a timeless beauty. I…

Maxi dresses are back … again. They’re in and then they’re out. Fortunately I have found one that is crazy romantic and absolutely timeless. It is the perfect ethereal number for summer that will have you feeling like the goddess you are. The Ardisia Maxi Dress is all white, but the stylists at Anthropolige jazzed…

Doing my daily run at Modcloth, I found the Night Spot Dress. This dress is spot on (excuse the pun, I couldn’t help myself.) The asymmetry, draped cowl neck and over-sized dots make the tunic both flirty and playful. Though I doubt I will wear it as a dress, it will make an…

I need to find a place to go, quick! I am absolutely in love with the Panther’s Play dress at Anthropologie and I need a reason to purchase it. The Panther’s Play Dress is the creation of one of Anthro’s famed brands, Leifsdottir. The strapless corseted dress is an amalgam of prints, namely leopard and marbling, in gray, black and…

While shopping in Fab’rik for a friend’s birthday gift, I ran across the Make an Impression Dress, a dainty feminine number. The sleeveless dress is piped with a black lining and boasts a lovely tie across the shoulder. Dotted with tiny flowers, this a-line sheath was an instant winner. The dress hits mid…

St. Patty’s Day is lurking around the corner. It is probably Corporate America’s least favorite holiday. Despite where I am working and despite not fully knowing my heritage (still have not figured out if Great Great Grandaddy was English or Irish) I wear green. I figure that it is much easier for me to wear…

Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow (it is amazing how much fate we put into the paws of a rodent), thank God. But it looks as though these next few weeks are still going to be rough. It seems Modcloth is also eagerly anticipating warmer weather. The stylists there have named…

I have made every effort to keep from getting “caught up.” You know what I mean by “caught up?” I mean, getting myself into the sticking situation that is shopaholism. I guess if I were really making my best efforts, I would not bother going to online sites on a daily basis and making weekly stops…

I tried again this year and failed miserably. Last year, I challenged myself to refrain from shopping for 365 days. I lasted 3 days. This year I lasted 14 days. Go me! (That is a real accomplishment whether you think so or not.) Being snowed in for almost a week did…

Hello Divas! I had a rough day today. Luxe baby was sick (vomiting everywhere), my tire may need replacing, and I did not get any work done. But I kept thanking God for all of my blessing because it could have been much worse. So Chamele is back! Yeah! Day…
