Purple Little Pretty

Rumor on the street said purple is going to be the IN COLOR for fall....well maybe I didn't hear it on the street, but as I was cruising through Salon Shoes at Nordstrom, Ellen told me that she wanted me to buy purple shoes. Low and behold, the sales person presented us with these and said my daughter had the pulse for what was hot for fall, so proud of my little fashionista. Ellen's reaction was buy these mommy! I told her that I would love to but if she wanted mommy and daddy to live together, we'd have to wait. Here is a sale watcher for me.....why is Dior tempting me with so many great things?

Fall Twenty8Twelve Trench

So I am still scoping out all of the fabulous pre-fall lines that are coming out. Thankfully I am not gaga over a lot of things - beneft when the fundages are low. From what I have been reading, fall is all about patterns and wild colors. I am more of a solids but with interesting cuts/textures kind of gal. I did stumble upon a cute little outfit from Twenty8Twelve. I love the jacket, skirt and sweater combo. I am not sure if this will look good on me but like it on the model. It's too bad we all can't have our clothes pinned to fit us properly. I am excited, however, that Nordy just sent me a letter thanking me for being such a great customer and I have $300 in free alterations for the year - yeah!!!
Enjoy

beta boutique

And while I'm here...for your other reader, I'll also post the new shopping spot I found this weekend in Chicago:
www.betaboutique.com

I procured a darling mini from Sweetface (J. Lo's line) - black satin with a clever pleating on the front that makes it look a bit like dressy shorts. But alas, a skirt! Can't find a photo online so I'll have try taking a pic in it one of these days.

Ciao bella!

Christian Louboutin Fall 2008

My poor blog has been ignored. For the two readers out there, I am sorry! It is a tough time of the year fashion wise because it is 100 degrees outside, all of the cute summer clothes are gone and my favorite fashion season FALL is yet to arrive. I am not a fan of the transitional wear that they try and sell during these off times so I am scoping out websites trying to find some fall pre-orders. I will try and be better about this.
The first piece of fashion they release always seems to be the shoes - how fortunate for me:) There's nothing like some good red sole action from my shoe weakness - Christian Louboutin. Here are the two pair I would LOVE for fall/winter 2008:

Enjoy:)
