Sex and the City 2010 Premiere

The day has finally arrived, Sex and the City 2 is here.  I could care less what the reviews say, if the outfits at the premieres are any indication, these ladies won’t disappoint! On Monday night, the movie premiered in NYC.  I guess they heeded the complaints from 2008 when SATC premiered in London rather [...]

Nana Says: Add a Spot of Colour

My fashionable Nana always has style on her mind.  Her biggest pet peeve is the colour black.  She thinks it’s criminal for a woman to rock head-to-toe black without any colour.  She argues it makes you look “in a mood”. Because I often fall victim to wearing head-to-toe black, Nana frequently reminds me to “add [...]

Frugal Friday: Summer Casual

This summer outfit from Neiman Marcus has it all: bright cardigan, funky tank top, versatile skirt and, best of all, it’s totally work appropriate. The only thing this outfit doesn’t offer is affordability: $1585 for the entire outfit, not including shoes.  Surely we can do much better!

To Capri or Not to Capri

A close friend of mine recently got into a debate with her bestfriends about capri pants.  One side was that they are unflattering and out of style and the other view was that they are a classic style. I side with the classic argument and offer you the trump card to all fashion arguments: Audrey [...]

Prada Print Collection Dresses

I love a great summer dress.  I love summer dresses at work, weddings, parties, picnics, evening strolls…I love them always! When I received an email from Vogue about Miuccia Prada’s Print Collection dresses, I was excited at the thought of wearing them for summer.  To my dismay, of course, Vogue seems to think that these [...]

Style Watch Fall 2010: The Structured Handbag

Big for Fall 2010 is the structured handbag. Look for bags that are square or round that do not lose their shape when set on a table top.  Structured handbags look best perched on your forearm, so find one that is light in weight and heavy on style. The most glam structured handbag is none [...]

Frugal Friday: One Shoulder Dress

I love receiving emails from Neiman Marcus and, if you also subscribe, this dress is probably familiar (it arrived at 5:30am this morning!). I took a closer look at the Carmen Marc Valvo collection and fell in love.  All the pieces in this collection are breathtaking, especially the dresses. The three things I love most [...]

Nana Says: Always Travel in Style

Before I started frequent travel for work, flying on an airplane was a stressful experience.  If my mother was flying to Ireland (to visit my Nana) she would plan her “plane outfit” months in advance. Never mind celebs who must impress the paparazzi, my family must impress Nana!  One year, my mum spent a small [...]

Nana Says: Fashion Inspiration

My Irish grandmother is my fashion inspiration–always has been and will continue to be. When I was a little girl and Nana traveled to Canada to stay with us, each morning I would watch her get dressed and help her select outfits and accessories to wear.  Now, at 28 years old, she continues to be [...]
