WHAT TO WEAR TO A STUDIO RECORDING?

Fashionistas, I need your help quickly we have no time! What do you wear when you are one of 40 persons chosen to attend a live studio recording of Satellite Party? That's where I'm going on Sunday, and with 3+ closets overflowing with everything from furs to flip-flops, I'm ashamed to admit that I've found myself saying those six little words that no fashionista should ever have to mutter. What am I going to wear?!?!? Or worse the even more dreaded - I have nothing to wear!!

Also, without divulging too much personal information, and in order to emphasis just how imperative it is for this fashionista to look her most fashionable on Sunday, one of the band members is a close personal friend.


Back to the original question, what do I wear?!?!?

BERGDORF GOODMAN PURSE SHOPPING

Why am I up so early? For the best reason possible!!! You guessed it - it's Friday and I've decided to make today a, "ME"day. Before anything I am going to Bergdorf's shortly to pick up this little thing I like to refer to as Pursie. Yes, you're right yet, another thing that I have in plenty but why not get another? My bills are paid, I have a substantial nest egg, investments, I donate regularly to those in need and now I feel like going to my happy place, Bergdorf's. The traffic will be less today, it's a perfect weather day, and besides why not go? It's not imperative that I stay by my computer all day. I do have a conference call later in the day, but it shouldn't be a problem taking that call on my cell. So off I go to bring Pursie home and visit with all her other pals at the greatest place on earth.

TTFN!

YSL PERFECT TOUCH RADIANT BRUSH FOUNDATION

I forgot that I didn't give my review of YSL's new Perfect Touch Radiant Brush Foundation. I've had it for several weeks, but only earlier this week did I decide to give it a whirl. My opinion? I'm not impressed. Here's why:



I thought that this new foundation would be similar to YSL's blush. No mess. It was rather messy. Also, I was under the impression that you just, "rolled" it over your face in the same fashion as a roll-on deodorant or used soft brush strokes to apply, never having to get the makeup on any other part of your body than your face. That wasn't the case. You have to squeeze the bottle then apply the foundation on to your hand and then apply it to your face as you normally would your regular foundation. So, you're still getting messy. I hate messy. I'm constantly in a hurry. I don't have time for messes. Additionaly, contrary to what the SA tried to tell me, it does feel heavy, not too too heavy but HEAVY, all-day-long. I don't like that feeling, like I'm walking around with clown's makeup on my face. Perhaps it would have felt even heavier if I would have applied a normal-sized amount. I applied it very conservatively, and yet I could literally feel it weighing on my skin all day . What an uncomfortable feeling indeed. I think I'll stick with my Erno Laszlo, thank you very much. Your blush and Touche Eclat can stay too YSL, just not your UNperfect Touch.

PRADA PRADA

I know, I don't need another anything, let alone shoes. But these cute little flip flops were just begging to come home with me. What was I supposed to do? I couldn't just leave them there unloved while I have the means of providing them with a loving and stable home. So, I bought them in both colors. I love Prada sandals, they are so comfortable. I have a few pair from last season that are staples in my summer wardrobe. I'm afraid that I can't say the same about their bags. I've just never been a Prada bag kind of gal. And the nylon Prada's? Oy, do they look like something that you would purchase in an ethnic section of a metropolis. Prada shoes on the other hand? Pure perfection.

DID YOU KNOW ABOUT GOOFBAY?

I didn't. Someone told me today about this site. I don't know too much about it other than what my friend told me. She said that if you go to www.goofbay.com you can search for items with typos, items with zero bidders and perhaps most interesting you can search completed items by seller. What you say? The seller keeps his/her completed items and items with live bids private? Not anymoooore! www.goofbay.com

I ORDERED MORE OF THE B1G1 TEES FROM TALBOTS

For the price, I really couldn't pass it up, so I bought two more tees. One in tarragon green (moss) and another in white. I didn't get the aqua because I have about 4 tees in that color and I didn't get that khaki - ish yellow color because that color is absolutely horrible for me. I figured what the heck, let's add another white tee to my white tee collection since they never stay as white as when first purchased. And I thought, "hmmmm, what other color don't I have 4 or 5 of, I think, (and I'm not sure - I could have more) I have about 2 moss green colored tees. Wow Talbots are you having a sale or what? The best part is, everyone can play this b1g1 game because all of these tees, (and I think in fact their clothing) are available in petites, misses and womens plus sizes. So, if you're in need of tees this season, I suggest you go to www.talbots.com quickly before they run out of stock at these prices. And, before I forget to tell you, I like the quality of these tees better than the Caslon tee that I purchased from Nordstrom late last week. If I were to cover up the tags, you would think that the Talbots tee is the Caslon Tee and the Caslon the Talbots. I was shocked at how cheap the Caslon tee looked when I compared the two side by side. It resembled a smaller version of a man's undershirt. I was disgusted. But enough of my ranting. I'm here to tell you that these tees are worth it in both price and quality. Oh, and for your fashionistas that don't care for v-necks they didn't forget you either! They have a round neck available for the same price as well. How do you like that Talbots?

DKNY BLOUSE and UNWANTED CLOTHING

I admit that I didn't try this blouse on because I was just too lazy and there was a very long line at the register. Now, I'll have to pay for it, but not literally. I have to return what looked to be this fabulous little DKNY blouse, (red and white) and I loathe making returns. If my husband won't return something for me or forgets to return something for me, I just keep it stashed away in the forgotten part of one of my closets. I have literally bags filled with new clothes that have only been tried on for less than 10 seconds. This one will hopefully not end up in one of those many bags. Hopefully it'll get returned. I was thinking about maybe featuring some of those little pretties here on fashion plus jewelry. What are your thoughts? Of course, I wouldn't price anything as if I were some designer boutique or retail store. And believe me, do I have quite a few things that are becoming claustrophobic in those dark plastic lawn and leaf bags.

I look forward to your thoughts.
