One trend that started in 2012 but has transitioned into 2013 is the laser-cut. We see it in clothes, shoes, handbags, and jewelry. I decided to show for this installment of Label for Less, the leather laser-cut tote. I spotted the Akris version (Label) browsing Bergdorf Goodman's. It's gorgeous, architectural in its shape and design, and very versatile. You can have the sides folded in (as shown above) or you can unhook the belt and have it open up. I'm also loving Rebecca Minkoff's version with the floral motif. BCBGMAXAZARIA's ... Read more...

How to wear your “Fancy Heels” during the day
I don't know about you but I have a few pairs of coveted heels in my closet. They maybe come out of the closet once a year at most; that's a shame isn't it? Some of these said heels are not really day appropriate, or are they? I paired my strappy snakeskin and suede Jimmy Choos with distressed denim, my 100% silk L'Agence multi-patterened blouse, sears fashion necklace and Stephane Kélian black woven leather bag for a nice (overcast) daytime outfit.

Weekend Highlight: Mother’s Day
My weekends have been very eventful lately and this weekend was no exception. With so many fun things going on it's tough to pick one aspect to highlight. This weekend, I pampered my mom and myself with a full day at the spa on Friday for an early Mother's Day present; then there was aerial yoga, a trip to the Drybar for a pre-festivities blowout, and a good friends little sisters college graduation party all on Saturday. But Sunday took the cake with a fun filled day of family for Mother's Day! I love spending time with my ... Read more...
