Spring Shoe Trend – Utility Chic Metallic Sandals (thefind Guest Blog)
Via our friends from thefindcom: One of this season’s hottest trends is utility chic. Think slim cargo pants, fitted work shirts, and leather messenger bags in shades of olive, khaki and gray. On your feet metallic sandals are the perfect complement to a utility chic ensemble. Whether you are a high-heeled girl or prefer to wear pretty flats, there are many options for metallic shoes this spring. We’ve rounded up our favorite for you to browse. It’s time to “forward march” into springtime dressing!
A gladiator is the perfect complement to this season’s skinny cargo pant. A flat sandal like Vince Camuto’s Bach (upper left, $119.95 – this and all shoes from Shoebuy.com). This fashion forward style has a covered ankle and oval gunmetal grey buckle detail. A statement making sandal, the Jessica Simpson Koolia (upper right, $88.95) features a stacked platform heel with wide gold metallic straps. Up the front is a zip closure with stud detail, peep toe and tapered heel. A gladiator is on this season’s must-buy list. The BCBGirls “Peter” (bottom left, $55.45) is an affordable and stylish gold metallic gladiator sandal. It is accented with coins and has an adjustable ankle strap. Another style from Jessica Simpson is the “Scilla” which features a high heel and pewter distressed suede metallic finish (right, $73.95). This ankle strap design includes a tie lace at front and wide banded straps.

Wardrobe Wish List: I Heart Ronson Dress (CollegeCandy Guest Blog)
Via our friends at CollegeCandy .com: After devoting two full hours to shopping for me, my mother insisted on doing a little shopping for herself. I was tired from lugging all my new goods around the mall and cranky (because the line at Auntie Anne’s was too long), but I begrudgingly agreed to accompany her to JC Penney for some sheets.
Obviously, I wasn’t excited about this little trip. Not only was it all the way across the mall, but it was JC Penney – who the hell shops there? But I went; it was the least I could do after she dropped some serious dough on me for my birthday.
We walked in on the 2nd floor and while my mom went to the information counter to find out where her ish was, I looked around the overlit store. I turned to my left and spotted about 20 racks of really ugly mom clothes. Ew. I turned to my right and – WTF – I saw this gorgeous, Missoni-inspired dress.
“JC-Penney sells Missoni?!” I thought to myself.
I walked (OK, maybe I ran) towards the display. When I got closer I realized it was not Missoni, but rather Charlotte Ronson’s line for JC Penney. There was a ton of really adorable stuff (jeans, cute going-out tops, etc.), but this dress was clearly the crown jewel of the line. I instantly fell in love.
I love the bright and graphic top. I love that you can wear it alone or, like the photo, unzip it a bit and add another layer underneath. I love that you can rock the basic black belt that it comes with, or add something a little brighter from your own collection. I love that it’s perfectly appropriate for bar hopping on Saturday night and brunch on Sunday. I love that you can wear it with some cute strappy sandals in the spring, or pair it with black tights and pumps right now. I love that it’s really freaking cheap.
I just L-O-V-E it.
And now that my mom isn’t rushing me through the store to pick up whatever boring white sheets she needs, I’m gonna head back to JC Penney (I know, I never thought I’d say that either) and pick it up.

We’re Dreaming About Rebecca Minkoff’s Spring 2010 Accessories
Coddled with complimentary champagne and miniature cupcakes, Rebecca Minkoff greeted her guests with a smile at her Spring 2010 Collection of handbags and bracelets in the lavish lobby of Henri Bendel. Cleverly positioned as book stoppers, the display featured a wide range of soft leather totes, purses, clutches and cute non-tourist-like belt pouches. Visible stitching adorned the warm red, tan, chocolate and yellow bags with adorable polka-dots or bird sketches lining the inside, making the inevitable rummaging-through-the-handbag ordeal a feast for the eyes. Juxtaposing the girly designs were edgy silver and gold-studded blacks, white and gray creations, complete with a popular runway trend: exposed zippers. Below are some of our favorites, including the tie-dyed designs handmade in Ethiopia, but make sure to check out the collection for yourself (and perhaps do a little shopping while you’re at it!).
