Christian Louboutin SS12 Roxane Collection

by

Roxane Medium in Mandarin Red Leather ($1495)

In the world of fashion, there is always an appropriate time and place for studs and spikes. In Christian Louboutin‘s new Roxane Collection for SS12, a little hardware goes a long way on these unique calf leather and water snake bags.

Available in a variety of colors and fabrications at ChristianLouboutin.com, the collection consists of four adorned bags: a large shopper, a medium shoulder bag, an envelope clutch and a wallet. It’s hard to pick which one is the most killer, but you’ll unanimously agree that each makes for ideal arm candy.

Add a Little Preppy, Geeky, and Rebel Style to Your Life (thefind Guest Post)

by

From our friends at thefind.com:
Remember when we were younger, and the movie Clueless came out, preppy chic took over our closets in a nanosecond. We flocked to the stores to grab knee-highs and pleated skirts, and to this day we still can’t get enough of a classic cardigan. It looks like the preppy trend is coming back strong. But instead of the rich-girl, high society influence that the character’s Cher and Dionne were back in the 90’s, this time around, “preppy chic” is modernly mixed in with a little”geek chic” and “rebel style.” The trendsetters of today are adding chunky glasses, mis-matched patterns and plaids, thick doc marten-like boots, and huge industrial satchels to the mix to redefine the trend to perfectly fit the 21st Century. Just think leathers, thick textures, geeky eyewear, and classic, cool footwear. Head over to your favorite vintage store, too, to find one of a kind pieces to add an exclusive addition no matter where your mood takes you. Complete your look instantly with these cool finds:  MIA Women’s Nolan Platform Loafer, Vanessa Bruno Athea Leather Trimmed Skirt in Black, and Vintage Large Wayfarer Glasses in Black/Clear.

De Beers Makes Ring Shopping a Breeze with its New iPhone and iPad App

by

Imagine being able to look at diamonds , create easy wedding band pairings, learn about various shapes, seetings, and the 4 Cs (cut, clarity, colour and carat weight), and watch videos that doll out expert advice, without having to leave the comfort of your couch? De Beers Diamond Jewellers is bringing this experience this month via its new iPhone and iPad App (free, via iTunes)  that focuses on bridal jewelry so that you can admire the brilliance of the diamonds and peruse the offerings; when you are ready to see the selections in person, the app delivers the info your nearest store location and arranges an appointment for you.

De Beers diamonds

At the Fifth Avenue store, I was guided through the app and made my own bridal jewelry combinations, learning that every piece of De Beers jewellery is certified with a “De Beers passport” and each polished diamond above 0.20 carats is microscopically branded with the De Beers Marque, invisible to the naked eye. Like De Beers on Facebook to find out more about the brand and the app, and get ready for an unrivaled bridal jewelry experience,which can make shopping for a ring an easy, stress-free experience for you, and/or your future fiancé.
