Be prepared

It’s the best advice I can give you, be prepared. There’s nothing worse than when your feet are killing you. Don’t let it get that far! Think ahead, and put something in your bag … just in case.

Tips

• always try on

brands to check out so far…

• J. Crew
• Martin and Osa
• Not Your Daughter’s Jeans (Curvy girls report they are a great fit)

I put this trend to the test with my own Cross-Body bag. I’ll give you tips on what to look for, and what to AVOID! Also, I’ll let you in on my favorites.

In this economic environment, women don’t want to spend big bucks on clothing. We still love our designers, we just don’t want to pay such a high price. Can you believe you can have both? Century 21 has great designer brands at about half the cost. It takes a little more time going through the racks to find ‘just the right piece’, but it’s worth it. I found a beautiful Milly dress for $120, An elegant coat with fur trim, suede platforms, pearls and a clutch.. all for under $250.

my look

I centered my look around the Milly dress I found. It’s a great dress for cocktail parties, especially when its paired with classic pieces. I decided to go for a more classic look, because I’m usually surrounded by parents whose kids are friends with my children. So, I’m more interested in looking elegant than super trendy, edgy, or HOT.

Some tips for shopping designer discount:

• Give yourself plenty of time
• Pay close attention to fabric
• Don’t get stuck buying last’s years “hit”
• Don’t settle
• Love it or leave it

The first time I stepped foot on this island, I felt it. I swear I’ve  been here before. It’s my place. The place I go to relax, to live, to learn, and to be inspired. Not everyone agrees with me, and some can’t understand it when I say “my spirit lives here.” This year I wanted to give you more than a taste. Enjoy the splendor!
