What’s with all the Sheer?!

May 9, 2006 at 4:00 pm by Designer Ella

See, this top is lovely. So me right now, but sheer.

I wear a lot of tank tops underneath my v-neck shirts, and my most versatile colored ones are getting old. I went shopping trying to find supplemental tops, and everything’s sheer. Listen, I need to cover myself. Even when layering three on, my little “bumps” are seen. If I wanted sheer, I’d work hard 3 hours, five days a week on getting a six-pack. And if I wanted my flaws poking through fabric, I’d wear silk (hate that silk).

Is this a Spring trend? (I rather hope not, but I also would hate it to last.) Have I missed reading about this? I know my reading material has been less fashion and more journalism / creative writing / sociology. (I know, what a waste!)

So; what the sheer?!

Colorful Strappy Heels

May 9, 2006 at 11:00 am by Mallory Road

You know that I usually post over at Pursed Lips, but I say it’s a good thing Ella asked me to guest post this week because otherwise I wouldn’t be getting to tell you about these shoes which I think are awfully cute! I love, love, love when I discover a pretty pair of shoes, especially when I can actually afford them!

Selling for $72, they’re featured in the latest issue of Lucky magazine, so if you like them, I suggest you place your order quickly. Also, as a little perk, enter “luckymag” at the checkout on le train bleu’s web site and you’ll get 25 percent off everything! Featuring leather straps in brown, light blue and yellow, they’ll be the perfect shoe to glide in this summer as you show off your perfect pedicure, of course!

Designer of the Week: Fendi

May 9, 2006 at 7:00 am by Designer Ella

Mallory Road gave the the idea for this week’s featured designer: Fendi. With their IT bag’s instantly-noticeable belt buckle, accessories other than the purses with the same buckles can be just as hot.
