We’ve spent the past two months trying to figure out how to channel Carmen Kass’ mermaid look circa June/July Numero. It’s hard – probably because our closet isn’t overflowing with Givenchy sequins, Stella shell dresses or wave-y ruffles from Christoper Kane begging to be taken to the beach in Queens – but this ring might [...]

My dad’s on a cufflinks kick. He scours outdoor markets from Lisbon to Cairo to Istanbul looking for readymade antique versions or vintage coins and baubles to make into his own. So I’ve had my eyes open – his birthday’s coming up – and these popped up on Etsy. They’re charmingly vintage, but not cheesy, [...]

We’re always on the lookout for the perfect t-shirt because, well, you can never have enough white tees. So when we found this cool Complex Geometries hooded one, we knew we just had to try it on. The verdict? This is probably the most comfortable, voluminous and versatile shirt we’ve ever taken into a dressing [...]

It’s 90 degrees outsides. Again. We’re flying through our stock of weightless, little dresses faster than we can make it to the laundry room, and there’s no way in hell we’re shimmying into any kind of pant/short on a day like today. Our solution? Why, shop, of course. So we came across this light, swingy [...]

There’s a certain bright red vintage Hermes belt sitting in a certain store in Soho that’s been weighing heavily on my mind. It was even in my dream last night – I cinched in a men’s shirt (don’t ask) and walked down the street thinking, “Where did I get the money for this?” And that’s [...]

For the past few years, fashion has been playing a little game with us we like to call “just how big can purses get before people start realizing they’re actually carrying duffel bags to work?” We know this trend is dying hard, but we’re sick of carrying a bag that weighs more than we do [...]

We pretty much fell in love with YSL’s spring 2008 star adorned stilettos. Sadly, tottering around Manhattan in strappy heels isn’t the most practical option most of the time – Not to mention the $600 price tag is a little out of our wallet’s reach these days. Enter the Heaven Star Sandal from Topshop. What [...]

We’ve had a love/hate relationship with the Chanel Spring 08 collection for almost a year now. We weren’t so into the denim, we loved the stars and stripes, and we realized that no matter how chic Karl’s interpretation of the American flag might be, there are a select few who will shell out five grand [...]

We probably haven’t thought about dELiAs since about the 5th grade when we were still wearing butterfly clips in our hair and henna chokers around our necks. But a few weeks ago, when we stopped a cute looking streetwalker, the brand was brought back to our attention – to our surprise, her outfit was from [...]

Sometimes, we wish we were in the army. Okay, maybe not. But we wouldn’t mind wearing the uniform. Case in point: this cute little military inspired number by Jovovich-Hawk on sale at Shopbop. Military was all over the runway for Fall 08 and this dress fits the bill perfectly, kind of reminding us of the [...]

We love nautical for summer. Britt will buy anything with stripes or navy blue and Hayley rocks this romper sailor suit (which Britt plans to steal) from Beckerman. But if you’re not so vocal, or visual, about your love of sailors and the sea, this bracelet from designer TrystByKerry is for you, and frankly for [...]

We just came across BRadelyBB, a seller on Etsy, and we knew we had to share. Her online store is packed with adorable accessories, mostly stud earrings, and at incredibly low prices. The ice pop earrings, at left ($4!), are what first drew us in. We’re picturing them with braids and a romper. And then [...]
