One of my favorite shops to pop into in SoHo is definitely Eryn Brinie. The Korean brand offers up really stylish and trendy clothing, but unfortunately I don’t usually end up buying anything — the prices are a little high for a store that offers a lot of polyester, in my opinion. However, last week I stopped by in the midst of a huge sale and scored big time: a dress originally priced at $95 was knocked down to $15! More »

It seems that we never grow tired of Marilyn Monroe, doesn’t it? Her image and likeness is used constantly in pop culture — try living in New York City where there seem to be vendors selling paintings and photos of the blonde bombshell on every corner! There was another milestone Marilyn moment this week: the pink dress she wore in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes sold for £213,000 ($314,000 USD). More »

One of my favorite online stores for designer duds is having a massive sale right now! Some items on Shopbop.com are up to 70% off of the original price, with lots at 50% and 20% as well. A lot of it is stuff that you can wear into the summer as well! I picked up this gorgeous Ella Moss Sedona Blouse for only $66 (originally $135)! Take a look at some of my other top picks. More »

I haven’t really visited Zara in the past, but I decided to stop in after seeing some looks that I really loved in their summer lookbook. I asked one of their sales associates about the floral bustier top above, and she ran off to grab it for me. I had visions of pairing it with a cute navy jacket that I have, or wearing it with my ballerina style skirt. But, alas, when she returned with the top she explained to me that it is only made in a size Medium. What?? More »

If you flip through any tabloid magazine (and even some major fashion magazines!) you’ll inevitably see the “Who Wore It Better” section where two celebs are caught wearing the same outfit and then judged on who rocked it. This week, I experienced a real-life episode of this little tabloid game when I attended the 2010 Matrix Awards. The contenders? Funny-woman Tina Fey and songwriter Sheryl Crow. More »

It was over 70 degrees yesterday and today. Hallelujah! Warm weather means that it’s almost time for one of my favorite New York pastimes: chips, guacamole, and big ol’ margaritas at a sidewalk restaurant. We might not have much space in the city, but we make outdoor patios out of any inch of sidewalk that we can. I picked up this Mexican-inspired dress at Forever 21 yesterday for the occasion. More »

I wrote a few weeks ago about how much I was looking forward to the Jean Paul Gaultier collection for Target, but today revealed the truth: it’s not worth the money. Not even close! I took a trip to Target this morning, and found that everything seemed overly polyester and cheap-looking. More »

From Girlybubble: If I’m not mistaken, I think prom is coming up soon– which means that girls are probably on the prowl right now for the perfect dress.

For those of you looking to be creative or innovative, please don’t put random holes in your dress or customize it to look like a swimsuit attached to a skirt. Learn from the talented Aimee Kick, who made her prom dress out of coffee filters. More »

Farah Angsana showed her Fall 2010 collection on the first official evening of Fashion Week! This collection was really luxe, and it incorporated a lot of the elements that we love about Fall, like rich colors, silk, and fur. Take a look at some of my favorite looks from the collection, and watch my feeble attempt at movie-making! More »
