Alice and Olivia’s Spring 2013 collection is a flash back to 1950s Woodstock and Miami Beach. With bright primary colors and icy blues and papaya oranges, the pieces have us itching for sunshine. A major highlight of the collection was the use of colored leather, with well-tailored moto jackets and shift dresses were featured in bright yellow, vibrant orange and pastel pink leather – definitely a must-have for spring.

The denim and tea collection also made a big statement,  sure to be a hit in 2013 by bringing back detailed, embroidered bell-bottom jeans and t-shirts. The brand also launched their first line of handbags for spring including everything from large gold metallic snakeskin tote bags to small clear plastic clutches.

What Shoe Personality Fits You Best?

by

Naturalizer ‘s newest campaign for their latest styles come in the form of the “Izer Personality Quiz,” in order to find out what shoe personality is the best fit for your lifestyle and taste.  From the options of Stylizer, Tanatalizer, Synthesizer, Glamourizer, Harmonizer or Authorizer, which one do you think you might be? I took the quiz, and got the “izer” of Authorizer, which actually surprised me at first — that is, until I looked at the styles and saw that there were several associated with this “izer” that I really wanted to wear!

Courtesy of the brand, I tried one of my “izer” styles, the Naturalizer Countour Grace Pumps — which I love for their versatility, practicality, and a bit of subtle, sparkly shine on the leather to transition from day to night. The manageable heel leaves my feet feeling perfectly supported throughout the day, making the act of stuffing a pair of back-up flats into my bag unnecessary. Take the quiz, find out which “izer” you are, and let me know!

MY T.J.Maxx SCORE! Three Much-Needed Items for Fall/Winter

by


I love purchasing high-end, quality, and brand name goods, but won’t pull the trigger unless the price is right — you with me on this one? AS FPD readers, I bet you are! I also love the thrill of the hunt, which is a good reason to check out the high-fashion designer brands at T.J.Maxx, at prices that can come in at 60% less than department, fine, and specialty boutiques.With a gift hard in hand (courtesy of T.J.Maxx), I set out for three score! items that epitomized a tremendous product at a super price. What I found was my fave Italian legwear designer Emilio Cavallini and go-to for hosiery, Calvin Klein, at 60% off (picture above and below).


I also have been putting off a new sneaker purchase for quite some time, but luckily, I spotted these Asics running shoes, which were on sale for only $50 (pictured below). I love that I was able to not only indulge in stylish finds for work, but also for play. What item are you hoping to score! at T.J.Maxx? Stay tuned for a giveaway later this week, so you can take home some amazing finds too!
