Saks Outlet Sale

Checked out the Saks outlet and they had a great shoe sale going on. Got their line of ballet flats - which are the closest thing to Lanvin flats without shelling out $500. Scored a black and pewter pair both for only $120!

Also great deals on boots and pumps - buy one get the other half off!

Fall Nail Trends

Fall is here and it's time to start wearing the dark nail polish again!

New from OPI is its Russian Collection for Fall/Winter 2007. The line includes twelve glamorous nail lacquers, three lip colors and three lip liners inspired by the rich royal heritage, sophistication and aristocracy of Russia. The fall runways were filled with cashmeres, satins and velvets and this collection complements the clothing for the upcoming season. The nail lacquers are free of DBP, toluene and formaldehyde, and they each contain OPI's ProWide brush (which I love—it makes application so much easier .

The three shades that come with matching lip colours and lipliners are Krème de la Kremlin, Suzi Says Da!, and St. Petersburgundy.

Each of the lacquers are $7.50, and the lip color and lip liners each cost $10.

My personal faves are St. Petersburgundy, Russian Navy and Siberian Nights

St. Petersburgundy - Claret
An Affair in Red Square - Shimmering red
Vodka & Caviar - Crimson
Russian Navy - Deep-sea indigo
Catherine the Grape - Deep wine
Siberian Nights - Onyx
Cosmo-Not Tonight, Honey! - Pale gold
Ruble for Your Thoughts - Copper-penny shimmer
Krème de la Kremlin - Terra cotta pink
Suzi Says Da! - Dark chocolate brown
Midnight in Moscow - Charcoal with maroon glimmer
Boris & Natasha - Raisin

H&M - bringing tacky back?

Don't get me wrong - I love H&M as much as the next person but seriously - are they being sarcastic or what - this violates every fashion rule!

New Handbags from Mike & Chris @ Standardstyle.com

Great clutch and tote from Mike & Chris. The price is still a bit steep but I could see the tote becoming this fall's alternative to the MJ Turnlock Teri Tote!

Latest Jewelry obsessions

I've been slowly trying to build a nice jewelry collection but I'm drawn to more funky designs over the traditional. Here are a few of the designers I like at the moment.

Jeanine Payer - she's been around for awhile, has a store in San Francisco and engraves quotes on her jewelry. I love the Antonio ring - inscribed

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." - Emerson

Also Adina Reyter http://www.adinadesign.com/

Love the disc ring in gold or silver
