Shopbop.com Handbag Sale

By Marlene • Apr 28th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

When I got my shopbop.com sale alert I had two thoughts: 1. I’m in desperate need of a new handbag since I’ve totally beaten up my Kooba by now and 2. I can’t believe I haven’t done an all-purse post! I know I’ve done several all-shoe posts. How could I have missed an all-handbag post? [...]



Spring 2009 Open-Toe Caged Booties

By Marlene • Mar 26th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

I’ve been on quite the shoe binge lately. And by binge I mean periodically posting links to fabulous footwear on my facebook page. Because if there’s one thing I have noticed this season, it’s there’s something utterly fabulous going on when it comes to shoes.
Caged sandals, open-toe booties, laceup styles and tons of straps are [...]



bobi collection

By Marlene • Mar 9th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

When the temps start to hit triple digits, I pretty much live in casual dresses. They’re comfy, easy and let my legs actually breathe despite it being 100 degrees-plus outside. But my other can’t-live-without wardrobe staple is casual tops. I literally can’t pop into Target without snapping up another plain-colored wife beater or tank because [...]



Shopping at Intermix

By Marlene • Mar 5th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

Hold on to your J Brand jeans ladies, a little birdie told me that it may just be possible that an Intermix store is coming to Scottsdale. I know, what?!?!?!? Before you get all excitable I’ll say this much: I have absolutely no idea how founded this rumor is nor am I really looking into [...]



Summer Finds

By Marlene • Feb 27th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

Today, I just feel like shopping. It’s bright and sunny out, surprisingly toasty actually, and a perfect day to spend outdoors…in the form of shopping that is.
Today I’m lusting after

These red Fendi bow pumps from Neiman Marcus. I don’t think I could actually pull off a bright red shoe, but if I could this would [...]



Rebecca & Drew Customizable Shirts

By Marlene • Jan 30th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

The biggest complaint I hear from shoppers is finding the right fit. We all want something that looks and feels like it was made just for you, but the reality is sizes are totally across the board. That’s why I heart the Rebecca & Drew line of shirts, dresses and bottoms. The Rebecca & Drew [...]



Obsessions from Barneys New York

By Marlene • Jan 23rd, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

You’d have to be living in a hole to not have heard that Barneys New York is coming to Scottsdale this fall! That’s right, Barneys is coming to Scottsdale Fashion Square, right in that little corner where Robinson’s May used to be. This will be the first Barneys New York store to debut in Scottsdale [...]



Saks Fifth Avenue Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas

By Marlene • Jan 22nd, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

While my personal indifference for Valentine’s Day is pretty well-known to all those around me, it doesn’t mean I don’t still like window shopping or perusing gift ideas for everyone else. I have a small threshold for things that are too cheesy, but these Valentine’s Day gift ideas from the buyers at Saks Fifth Avenue [...]



More Spring 2009 Obsessions

By Marlene • Jan 19th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

Happy MLK Day everyone! And it’s a beautiful one at that. Bright and sunny and 77 degrees out, which still has me in a spring state of mind. I culled a few more of my favorite spring 2009 looks, this time from Net-a-porter, shopbop and Intermix. So bust out your sunny wares everyone and get [...]

By Marlene • Jan 16th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

It’s going to be 75 degrees this afternoon and with that in mind, I just can’t stop thinking about spring fashions, yay!! I did a little online shopping a la Neiman Marcus and here are a few of my favorite things. Hooray for brights and prints and florals and nude-tones and all things spring this [...]
