TOP PICKS


SUNDAY, 8.8


Summer is almost over but don't let that stop you from stocking up on those cute and colorful ballerina flats, gladiator sandals, peep-toe pumps or wedges. Some of the affordable brands in this Beyond the Rack sale are Dolce Vita, Pink Studio, Lovely People, BCBGeneration and Chinese Laundry.  Make sure you step on it.




MONDAY, 8.9


Stacey Bendet designed websites for fashion designers and was searching for her perfect pair of pants, bold-striped vintage bell-bottoms.  She had quite a difficult time finding them so she decided to make her own pair which is how Alice + Olivia came to be in 2002.  She incorporates her many inspirations into each collection, creating sophisticated and playful lines.  Check out her collection at Gilt.

TUESDAY, 8.10


My favorite sale, Decadestwo, is back at Hautelook. They have an incredibly delicious collection of Chanel staples such as boucle jackets, dresses, cashmere cardigans and bags waiting to be sold to the quickest buyer.  So catch them if you can!

WEDNESDAY, 8.11


I am a sucker for short, cute dresses.  If you're short like me or tall like Gisele Bundchen, they're extremely flattering.  Well, they're pretty flattering on almost everyone.  Hype's flirty, feminine dresses have a distinct vintage look which balances out a sophisticated and playful look.  Check out what all the hype is about at Ideeli.


  
THURSDAY, 8.12


Inspired by the European fabrics he uses, Robert Rodriguez creates sophisticated and sexy looks for stylish women of all ages.  He focuses on fashion, quality and fit which is easily seen in his collection.  His Rue La La collection contains cool colors such as crisp blues, blacks, greys and neutrals which balances out the feminine silhouettes and 80's inspiration.

FRIDAY, 8.13


Beige isn't the new black.  It's better than black, especially when it comes to shoes.  What's more flattering than neutral sky-high platforms on your feet?  Neutral shoes elongate perfectly moisturized, shaved legs and even make those slight imperfections (scars, cuts and bruises) seem insignificant.  Check out the collection of sandals, totes and pumps at Gilt.  While you're at it, stop by the Well-dressed sale where you'll find great dresses from Black Halo, BCBG and Design History, just to name a few.  Spend $125 on the Well-dressed sale and get $25 off.  Who could ask for anything more?


SATURDAY, 8.14
 

Silver, silver, silver, black, black, black.  Barf.  

Having some type of colorful kitchenware is a must.  Whether it's a green or orange pot, orange apron or red bakewear, the pop of color will brighten your kitchen up in a flash.  Mario Batali gets it.  Check out his fun and bright kitchen toys at Rue La La.
