Scarves - an easy update....

Today I had a reader request - "where do you find great scarves?" 
A scarf is a great way to add interest to any outfit.  I am guilty of a very monochromatic wardrobe - I prefer to add pattern through print scarves, it seems to draw attention to your face, and I get more longevity out of my outfits as they can add drama and change a look.

Here are some picks for spring......

Aren't these cute - from Mango at JCPenney ($15-30 approx)

Shopbop - extra 20% off sale shoes

Peeps - I have a confession, (I don't talk about it much), but those near and dear to me know that I am in fact a "bootaholic".  We have had a few occupational hazards lately - as in the "buy now" kind.  You know what I mean - save me from myself and check out the sweet shoe deals at Shopbop........before I do.

Of course my darlings sizes are limited - but here is to some good shopping karma!

Here are some Tory Burch's - drool......

Boden is an english catalog company that has been available stateside for some time.  I really like their women's and kid's clothing - the quality is very good and it has a casual elegance.  They have some great clearance deals on their site currently.  Nordstrom is starting to carry it also.

Here are a few things that caught my eye.......

Soma Intimates - codes

I don't know about you - but at this stage in my life I feel like I am in a lingerie no-man's land.  Case in point - no longer the main Victoria's Secret demographic, and frankly the "sex sell's" m.o. is a turn-off (although their Lacie thong is a great alternative to the Hanky Panky), and bored with the department store landscape (Target has more exciting offerings), I was pleasantly surprised to flick through the SOMA mailer.........

Owned by the Chicos group (don't turn your nose up - they own White House Black Market too), this company has a history of dressing REAL women.  Catering to a variety of sizes including up to a size 18 and 42 DDD.  They also have clothing online too.

I got some codes with my mailer so feel free to indulge.  Currently we don't have a store in town, but I think we are slated to get one in the near future.

$10 off $50 or more code 2230
$25 off $100 or more code 2231
$50 off $150 or more code 2232
*expires march 16th

Blog of the week - The Blonde Salad

I don't know if it's because Chiara lives my fantasy life or just the feeling of being in europe, but The Blonde Salad is a really fun blog. 

She is a college student living in Milan with a great eye for mixing high and low, and putting together stylish but unusual looks - a true trendsetter.  Follow Chiara on her travels around NY/Milan/Paris fashion weeks...
Le sigh......
