After my earlier post on my bag lusts, I thought I’d take a stroll through Yoox.com to see what else they had…oh…the spring colors from one designer to the next…how could I not share it with you??? For Fantasy Wardrobe readers…the key to any outfit is to find your signature piece. My signature pieces are…
Have you seen Net-a-Porter’s Bag Guide video? Talk about a fantasy purse closet! Since I saw the video, I’ve been on the hunt for an armoire to house my ever growing purse collection. Speaking of my ever growing purse collection…the hunt is on for spring/summer. Here’s my lust list. 1. Zara Large Rigid Shopper, $169….
See this tee? The Devils pinned this up on Pinterest…and right next to it, I saw this pin… I kept looking at the pictures side by side…and then I saw the Devils pin this one up… Which of course, was right next to my pin on what I’m adding to the wardrobe next… Then the…

On Wednesday night, DKNY and BaubleBar hosted a party down in SoHo to launch their new collection. Here’s a glimpse into the bauble scene at the launch.

Some things are just too good to wait until Friday to share. 1. Little Black Bag. Thanks to Fab Fatale for introducing me to this site. For those who follow…you may have noticed I have a bit of a fetish with handbags. I have a new handbag (or 2…sometimes 4) every single week. LBB, on the…
We just received one of our most beautiful days in NYC this year, so I decided to finally leave the office during lunch for the first time this winter. My destination: H&M on 5th Avenue to see the new Marni collection. Well, I loved the bags in the windows…but I only saw that menswear was…
I had heard that in order to combat the recession, many restaurants were scaling back on qualitative ingredients in order to keep their prices constant. Maybe before they used half a tomato in their recipe…now, they use only 1/4 of the tomato, so they can get two dishes out of that half of a tomato. For…
Every Fantasy Wardrobe needs to start from a beginning. Once you’ve understood the basic financial platform that all smart fashionistas need to know before they embark on building their wardrobe (i.e. don’t go into debt for fashion), you need to start with what every fashionista needs to have in her wardrobe. Here are the basics……
Since a lot of publications and blogs have been talking about decluttering, I thought I’d add my two cents in as far as how it relates to building your Fantasy Wardrobe. The Fab Chick did a great post on how she’s starting off with decluttering her wardrobe. It’s a great place to start. Even Gayle King…
Ladies (& Gents)… Get your debit cards out and ready…thanks to SHEFinds for this sample sale alert. Yoox.com is having a MASSIVE sale. I just picked up a bunch of Ports 1961, Badgley Mischka, Halston Heritage, Rachel Roy, Isaac Mizrahi AND Valentino for next to nothing! There are so many big designer names, so many sizes,…
It’s been a few months since I’ve done my top 5 loves (honestly, I keep forgetting). So let’s kick this one off… 1. Prada’s new shoe line. This may be Man Repeller worthy, but damn if I’m not in love with this new shoe line from Prada. It’s like Ghostrider meets Hot Wheels meets Grease….
Apologies to the ladies outside of the NYC area, but this post is mainly about the discount retailer DAFFY’S, which only has locations in NYC, NJ and PA…but it’s a store to put on your list of things to do while visiting our great city. There are Daffy’s shops all throughout NYC. It’s a discount…
Remember this Reed Krakoff tote I mentioned a few weeks ago? I found a similar one from Nine West for $125. Well, scratch that. I found another one. This Reed Krakoff retails at $1,090. While this knockoff retails at $60. [From Oasis]
I’ve been a little obsessed with Victoria Beckham’s clothing line as of late. With such a hefty price (and limited sizing), her line (even the cheapest of them all, Victoria) will be on most of our wish lists for a very long time. What I love about the Victoria Beckham lines? The style. Guess what? …
See that dress our First Lady is wearing? That just so happens to be a Jason Wu for Target dress. Price of the dress? $39.99. Jason Wu was also the man who designed Mrs. Obama’s inaugural dress. So if designer fashion can be found under $50 from Target…and it’s good enough for the same First…
As a followup to yesterday’s Fantasy Wardrobe post, I thought I’d pass along some additional SHOPPING information on HOW TO SAVE $$$… 1. SAKS FASHIONfix. I don’t know why I never really checked out this link before…oddly enough, I had signed up for it in the past…I just never really took a look at what…
Living in NYC, you can be inundated with the fashion culture every which way you turn. From Vogue to Fifth Avenue to models every which way you turn to Sex and the City…it’s hard not to want to wear everything you see in the high end world. For any fashionista starting out, it takes years to…
I decided to stray from my normal online haunts today when I remembered…oh, there’s Bloomingdales! I haven’t viewed their site in a while. To my surprise, a lot of bags I’ve posted up in the last month as WANTS, LUSTS and CHEAP BUYS…well, Bloomies did one better in my lowest price found. Here are a few……
I’m not one to point out a professional athlete’s genitalia…BUT… While I was in Madison Square Garden last night, I came out of the press room to head upstairs to the press box when I looked out the window and all I saw were these MASSIVELY HUGE balls. They were literally two stories high (look…
