looking like an angel in loungewear

If you’re anything like me, you love to slip into comfy’s at the end of a long day. I know the temptation is there to throw on a pair of ratty old sweats from college (sometimes my BC sweats are all I want to slip into)! Although, over the holiday season, or when I have house guests, I like to at least try to make an effort. I’m over the whole “Juicy” obsession; I want something a little different. Twisted heart has some great fitting pieces that are cozy and look great. I love the angel wings on the back of one of their hoodie designs! It’s sweet, angelic, and innocent. You know… it would make a great gift as well.

    Sarah Jessica Parker has been getting a lot of flack for the two-toned hosiery that she wore to Chanel’s Mobile Art Party. Sarah Jessica is known for being über-fashionable, and has an appreciation for supremely high fashion. So, it should come as no surprise to learn that the nylons are from the 2009 Chanel Collection. Haute Couture doesn’t always translate to everyday life. It’s about fantasy, pushing the limits, trying new things, and being innovative. Big fashion houses like Chanel have a huge impact on us, and inspire our personal style. I understand the Chanel hosiery, in fact I embrace it. I won’t be paying the $250 price tag, but I would buy an imitation. Would you?

    the sun inspired jewels of Marco Bicego

    You can practically feel the warmth of the sun when you look at Marco Bicego’s jewelry. While the collection is from Italy, it exudes a Grecian spirit. Each piece is lit from within as if Apollo, God of the Sun, himself had a hand in its creation. It’s the type of jewelry you would expect to see on women wandering through the town of Thera, on the island of Santorini. It expresses effortless, everyday, luxurious style. You can wear his jewelry with everything from a chic maxi dress, to a beautiful bathing suit by the beach. The collection is perfectly suited for the summer months, when the sun’s rays reflect a light that makes everything look gilded. The pieces will compliment not only your glowing skin, but your wardrobe as well. I’m loving this illuminating look, and the feeling it gives off. I’m thinking a Marco Bicego bracelet would make an excellent Mother’s Day gift! What do you think? I know, I know, I should stop dreaming! Hopefully, some of you will get the chance to glisten wearing Marco Bicego’s fabulous collection.
