Jewelry From The Titantic

National Geographic has posted never before seen photos of the Titanic, as well as artifacts they have located in a recent dive to the site.  This ring was found in a leather pouch.  You know, it was just chillin’ down there, waiting for someone to discover it.  I can’t even imagine the cost.  You know what, I won’t.  I’ll just imagine it on my finger.

The Heel/Wedge Hybrids Are Coming

I’ve been seeing more of the heel/wedge hybrid in spring shoes, and the verdict is in.  I LIKE it! For this particular shoe, I would go with the white or the yellow (the red and the black just seem so winter-y to me, maybe it’s because we just started spring and I don’t want to look back!

Susan Sarandon Gets Hotter With Age

Who knows how old Susan Sarandon is.  Who cares?  The fact that she can put on this purple Nicole Miller gown and look so damn good is a testament to her skills as both a fashionista and a gracefully aging actress.  What I love most about Susan Sarandon is that she knows her body and dresses for it (if only women who were much younger than her would do the same!)

It’s Like Lightening

You probably already knew about my geometric shape obsession, but did you ALSO know that I love lightening bolts?  I can’t resist them.  In any color, in any material.  Pink, plastic, and Saved-By-The-Bell-style awesome?  Yes, please.

No Photoshop = Real Beauty

Cate Blanchett keeps it real, literally.  No photoshop for this gal (she’s too beautiful for it anyway.)

New Designer Obsession: Heidi Merrick

Heidi Merrick, where have you been all my life?

This is when I really love the new collections feature on shopbop.  It introduces me to new designers that make awesome stuff.  I’m totally obsessed with these colors already, but on this dress it is to die for!  Let’s buy this dress and then go on a cruise (I’m serious.)

When Pretty Girls Go Weird

Katy Perry found this outfit in the closet of one of Madonna’s back-up dancers during the Express Yourself Tour.

Maybe Katy Perry actually thinks this looks good?

Date Night: A Spring Outfit To Dine In

I don’t know many women who could wear this dress without a belt.  If you can, awesome, good for you!  You are probably super thin and petite.  For the rest of us…belt this baby and then get ready to rock a form-flattering silhouette. My accessory picks to match below.
