One Look, Two Ways:: Your LBD

Thursday, January 12th, 2012 by Jerrell

When building your wardrobe, there really is nothing more important, or versatile, than the Little Black Dress. An LBD is always appropriate whether you’re wearing it to a meeting with your boss, a first date, dinner with the in-laws or a cocktail party with your girlfriends. Investing in a good quality LBD that flatters your figure is a must. From there, knowing how to accessorize it based on the occasion is essential.

One Dress, Two Ways

 

For work, pair it with simple accessories, modest pumps and a functional, but fashionable handbag. For a night out, choose attention-grabbing accessories: bright pumps, big cocktail rings and fun clutches. I chose this LBD by The Row because it’s conservative enough for work thanks to it’s knee-length, but its slim fit and waist detail allow it to stand out without much else. When shopping for your own LBD, make sure that it fits perfectly, has a little something that helps it stand apart from the rest of the black dresses in the world, and that the fabric can be worn during all seasons. That way you’ll be sure to get the most wear out of it.

Happy Shopping!

The Year of The Lady::

Thursday, January 5th, 2012 by admin

For those of you who love my Law of Health column on Tuesday’s, you’re in for a treat! Starting this week, I’ll be bringing you the latest in fashion trends and all of the ways you can wear them, from work to the weekend. One of the biggest complaints we hear from Posh shoppers is that their closets are full of work clothes that they can’t wear anywhere else. I’m here to help you select items that can be re-assembled to take you wherever you need to go.

Year of the Lady

 

 

This week, I wanted to share one of my favorite trends for the Spring: Ladylike Dressing. I like to think of it as “Ladies Who Lunch” meets “Ladies Who Launch.” Start looking for pieces that feel sophisticated, yet modern. Like these Repetto ballet flats, but in a red patent leather. Also, focus on pairing classic items, with more modern pieces like this classic J.Crew jacket with those fabulous Charlotte Olympia pumps. The great thing is that all of these items, with the switch of a handbag, are as appropriate for the office as they are for dinner with girlfriends. And that makes them worth the investment.

Drug Store Beauty Buys::

Friday, December 30th, 2011 by admin

It’s been a while since we’ve shared our favorite deals and steals in the beauty world with you, but that’s just because we’ve seriously been out scouring the beauty market finding our absolute favorite products for Spring/Summer for you. And let us be the first to say, there’s SO many good finds that we cannot wait to share with you. Let’s start with some great drug store buys… cheap enough to not break the bank, but quality so excellent that we cannot keep these to ourselves!

Poppy colored lips are all the rage for Spring beauty (See: Elizabeth Banks at the Met Gala this past Monday) and Apple Polish by Revlon is the perfect purchase to fill your poppy colored needs. For just $8.99, you won’t be upset if you only find a way to wear it even just a few times!

This is L’Oreal’s amazing, amazing makeup primer at a really unbeatable price. We’d compare how well this works to ‘Photo Finish‘ by Smashbox, but for a fraction of the price. Use it after moisturizer but before your foundation to smooth out the skin tone and fill in those fine lines and wrinkles. This product REALLY works.

We love us some Sonia Kashuk, and we cannot recommend her makeup brushes more highly! They’re soft, durable (seriously, they last for years!) and do a great job! These are three brushes that you’ll find yourself using on a daily basis, and for a price like $19.99, you’re seriously getting a steal!

You’ve heard us talk about some of the colors from Essie’s Spring collection before, but you really seriously need to stock up on them. How perfect are all those neutrals and pastels? Won’t they be perfect with your bold, bright colored outfits? Je A’dore.

‘Tis the season to be tan and sometimes you gotta fake it til you make it! It’s been a long, cold, dark winter and now it’s time to brighten your skin up– the HEALTHY way! Try these L’Oreal sublime bronzing towelettes, they’re bound to cure your pasty white blues.
