There’s a chance you didn’t- because I sure had no clue! But, after trying the Avon Wear Your Way Versatile Dress (Available in S, M, L, XL, price: $24.99,) I am a convert (pun intended). As the perfect, LBD, this dress features five looks in one. It comes with a little foldable diagram with instructions so that you’ll have a reference to wear it in new ways each time. In these pictures I have placed the “V” in the front with the straps tied several times around my waist, but you can also drape, tuck, and twist them in several other ways. Although this piece is currently out of stock, check back for future availability, OR try one of their other Avon versatile pieces!

Steven by Steve Madden is the Boot Style of the Season (thefind Guest Post)
Guest Post via thefind.com:
Is it just me or does every girl in the city own the same pair of boots this winter? I’ll admit, Steve Madden has created an undeniably cute boot construction, (the Steven by Steve Madden Cognac Mini-Wedge Boot) but I’m getting a bit tired of looking around the neighborhood and feeling like we’ve somehow warped into a boot-sponsored fashion military. If you love your cognacs, feel free to keep wearing them, they really are charming – I understand, I own a pair! But if you would like to break away from the monotony, check out my latest fall boot finds below. They’re just as comfortable, versatile, and fashionable as the aforementioned…and they are also Steven by Steve Madden.
The unexpected taupe tone and buttery-soft leather makes Steven by Steve Madden’s “Sabra” Leather Knee-High Boot a keeper. This tall riding boot is both edgy and feminine, helping you make a fashion-forward statement in any situation you so-happen to step into.
The Steven by Steven Madden “Masen” Leather Wedge Ankle Boot in black adds a little bit of rock and roll edge to any ensemble you might throw together. For a trendy assemblage, wear these sturdy slip-ons under boot cut jeans or with a pair of black wool tights.
Steve Madden has stayed on our radar for the last twenty years with his amazing rock-inspired shoe and boot designs and this season has by far been one of our favorites. Why get stuck with just one style when there is an absolute armory to choose from? Do you have an archived Steve Madden shoe pic from years ago? Have you seen another adorable Steve Madden pair lately? We’d love to hear about it. Share it with us in the comments below.

Shop Talk: Nick Wooster (LollieShopping Guest Post)
Nick Wooster is the Men’s Fashion Director at Neiman Marcus and well-recognized throughout the fashion blogosphere for his forward, inspirational and downright handsomely elegant sense of style. Being that it is a rare day for me to write about men’s fashion and that more and more men are requesting me to do so, I enlisted his advice and help. In this fashion interview, Wooster has some great tips for men and information on what will be hot for Spring.
LS: Why is it that men are not as fashion obsessed as women are? Is it the marketing, or is it just the way we’re built?
NW: I think it’s the way we’re built. Of course, there are always exceptions to the rule. I think it’s just built into our gene pool.
LS: But there has been change.
NW: The metrosexualization that occurred in the late 90s and the earlier part of this decade has given men the okay to care about how they look. What a 50-year-old guy looks like today is different than what a 50-year-old looked like 20 years ago, so guys have learned to take better care of themselves. They’ve got to go to the gym. They’ve got to use skincare products. And consequently, they are interested in how they present themselves and how they dress. I think it’s all the events, economical and societal, that have given them the okay. And I think it’s their own desire. Everybody wants to be told they look great. When men realize with a little effort and care they can transform how they look, they’re interested in doing it.
