My Purse and Me

It's Sunday and I am linking up with Ashley and Neely for Sunday Social to talk about Purses.  Shoes are my number one obsession, but purses come in at number two.  So let's get started!

1. What is your favorite handbag you've ever owned?

My Louboutin Sweet Charity Small Spike Chain Bag!  This is truly the most FABulous bag I have ever owned.  The hubs bought it for me for my birthday last year.  I am one lucky girl!  I wear this bag for anything and everything that is special or important to me.  It has fierce style and definitely complements my personality.

LA Fashion Week 2012
 

2. What is your dream handbag you lust over?

This Fuchsia Chanel bag is absolutely to die for.  It is so gorgeous, and hot pink is my favorite color.

3. What are the daily essentials in your purse or work bag?

4. What's in your purse (with pictures)?

 I'm going to put these 2 questions together.  

 1. Miss Dior Wallet

2. Rhinestone Pen

3. Jimmy Crystal New York Flash Drive

4. Trident Splash Gum

5. Maybelline Fit Me Pressed Powder

6. L'oreal Voluminous Mascara in Black

7. Chanel Glossimer Gloss Pink

8. Lancome Le Laque Fever in Electric Pink

9. Dior Ultra Gloss Red

10. Mini Dior Ultra Gloss Light Pink

11. Lancome Le Crayon Kohl Black Ebony

12. Starbucks Card

13. Purell

14. Nerds (Lol!)

This is seriously the max for this purse.  Just the absolute necessities.

Thank you so much for reading my post!  I love comments, they make my day!

Rachel Zoe Trunk Show Neiman Marcus Beverly Hills

Yesterday I attended my 2nd Rachel Zoe event at Neiman Marcus Beverly Hills.  Yes, I just said I got to meet her twice!  This event was a trunk show for her jewelry collection that will be arriving at all Neiman Marcus Stores in August.  It is to die for.  Absolutely AMAZING!  The jewelry is Sixties and Seventies Art Deco Style.  I can't even begin to tell you how fabulous it is! Here is a picture of Rachel wearing my favorite pieces from her collection.

It is so gorgeous! The gold, the tassels, the bling!

I couldn't resist trying on some items from her Fall 2012 Collection.  All of Rachel's designs fit impeccably and have a flair that is distinctively Rachel.  Each piece looks and feels like a one of a kind custom designed piece intended for only you.  I fell in love with and had to purchase the Hutton Tuxedo Jacket and Pants Suit. Rachel did not miss a thing on this one.  The jacket has a flattering slim fit and the matching pants are also slim fit with a boot cut. They are both perfect and are sure to flatter any figure.  The material is high quality and feels very luxurious.  In true Rachel style, this tuxedo suit has finishing touches including a satin lapel drawing attention inward and making a narrowing silhouette.  The inside of the sleeves are lined in black satin which is a nice touch if you wanted to roll up the cuff.  The pants also have a satin stripe running down sides to keep with the classic tuxedo look in the most feminine of ways.  Leave it to Rachel to design the new power suit.  Here are some pictures of it.

 You can purchase this suit here.

 These are some of the other items featured at the trunk show.  I'm definitely going to be getting in line for this must have leopard clutch!  The Fall 2012 Collection is Ah-mazing!

Grand Opening of Anthropologie at South Coast Plaza

Me and the hubs were invited to the Grand Opening of Anthropology at the South Coast Plaza.  It is a beautiful, very large store.  They have such a great assortment of fabulous things to buy.  There were refreshments and 10% of the evening's proceeds will benefit Arts Orange County.  We had a great time!

I'm in Love with Leopard!

With Last Call and Saks Consolidation Sales going on it was a must to go shopping.  This is just my #OOTD for my outing in Beverly Hills where I found some great deals!

 

My favorite part of my outfit is definitely my leopard Pour La Victoire Pumps!  I got them last season at Saks.

Thanks for reading my post!  I love your comments!

Fun was had at Neiman Marcus!

I had so much fun today at Neiman Marcus!  They were having their Last Call Sale and it was very festive with lots of goodies to snack on.  I snapped some pictures with my phone to share the fun with you guys!

 

The 1st floor had cotton candy and ice cream!  I certainly had to partake in some of this cotton candy goodness!

 

The 2nd floor had Popcorn and Ice Cream!  How cute and fun is this?

The 3rd floor had a DJ and more popcorn.  And throughout the store were these super cute Neiman Marcus water bottles that have pink leopard on them.

I had such a great day.  I bought 2 pairs of shoes and 2 pairs of jeans that I will feature on another post.  If you haven't been to the sale yet, you should really check it out!  It is FABULOUS!  It's also online here.

Thanks for reading my post!  I love comments.  They make my day!

4th of July Festivities!

Happy Birthday America!!  Happy to be living in the land where we are free to express ourselves in the fashion we believe.  No colors are more bold and fun than the traditional Red, White & Blue! 

Usually 4th of July fun is pretty casual.  But even casual needs some sparkle.  So why not add some glittery nail polish, silver glitter Vans & blingy bracelets.  These are just a few ideas to brighten up the day or night.

I also think that 4th of July calls for some festive treats!
