By diane • Aug 11th, 2009 • Category: Trend Time

Have you seen Miley C on the previous cover of Elle? And that fab pictorial inside? How about Jen Aniston’s upcoming September cover in leather? I mean really who can’t resist a good biker chic moment in fashion even if it is on a teen queen? This trend is perched firmly at the top of [...]



Over-the-Knee Boots

By Marlene • Jul 22nd, 2009 • Category: Trend Time

I cannot stop thinking about thigh-high boots. They’re definitely a huge trend for fall 2009 and were seen all over the fall runways. Whether you want some in suede, leather, flat or with a great big stiletto, there’s a style to suit pretty much everyone.
Now, the thigh-high boots I’m lusting after are heeled. But, I [...]



New Fall 2009 Shoe Arrivals

By Marlene • Jul 17th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Obsessions

Not surprisingly as I write this, I probably should be at the gym. Bad. But I can’t seem to go when it’s so hot out. The idea of getting out of my baking car and walking through the oven we call “AZ” to get inside and sweat some more and walk back through the oven [...]



How to Build a Work Wardrobe

By Marlene • Jul 1st, 2009 • Category: Fashion How-to's

After graduating college when I first started working, my wardrobe situation was incredibly frustrating. In fact, I clearly remember not being the only one of my friends who consistently suffered from having absolutely nothing to wear. My closet was filled with clothes mind you, and so was theirs. But the problem was it was filled [...]

By Marlene • Jun 8th, 2009 • Category: Fashion How-to's

If you read last week’s edition on How to Build a Wardrobe and actually implemented the ideas, it’s time for Step 2! Trust me, it’s much easier if you start that way before moving on to the rest. Depending on the pie chart of your life you made in Part 1 (you did make one [...]



Mitchell Binder of King Baby Studios and Queen Baby Personal Appearance

By Marlene • May 28th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Flash

One of the things I love most about my job is I’ve had the opportunity to meet and interview some amazing movers and shakers in the fashion and beauty industry. I’ve met David Yurman, Laura Mercier, Christian Louboutin, Ralph Rucci and many others in between as well. What’s most interesting to me, and the common [...]



Absolutely Fabulous Party Dresses

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

So in exactly one month, I’ll be turning 59 in Bunny Years. (If you haven’t seen the movie “House Bunny” yet, go get it now, it’s hilarious and you’ll totally understand the reference.)
Like any gal, I’m not too thrilled. Except for hopefully some nice presents, turning older is never any fun. And even if I’m [...]



Memorial Day Weekend Packing Essentials

By Marlene • May 21st, 2009 • Category: Fashion How-to's

Last week I was bad. I was invited to a daytime pool party that I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to make. In fact, it would’ve been a complete surprise since to be honest, I just don’t go to pool parties. I’m not really a fan of outside. Especially in Arizona.
At any [...]

Oh yah. That title above is totally true. Can you say “yeah!?!?”
Generally, when I hear there’s Phillip Lim news, I get pretty excited. It’s probably one of my favorite contemporary lines out there. So when I read on The Cut that Phillip Lim has debuted a swimwear line this season and a lingerie line is [...]
