City Fashion and Lifestyle Blog

I don’t watch the Emmys, but I do check out the red carpet looks the day after. It’s not that I don’t watch the shows nominated, but that I’d rather see the short list of results afterward and peruse all the celebs in their gowns at my leisure. I’m always interested in seeing the gowns. [...]

Last year, I read this book. I don’t remember how I came upon this title, but I do remember loving every word that was written.
I work in fashion, I blog about clothes, I have an (unhealthy) obsession with shoes and I like trying new beauty products, so I understand it might be surprising to some [...]

For the longest time, I’d been anti-vampire-movies/TV.  I admit to reading all the Twilight novels and loving them, but I refuse to see the movies and had zero interest in getting into any of the vampire-based TV shows. One vampire series was enough and the thought of any more made me roll my eyes.  But [...]

I saw The A-Team this weekend not because I’m a fan of the show or because I’m addicted to action movies (although I kind of am) but because I love Bradley Cooper.  But before I start talking about his insane drool factor of infinity, I should review the movie.  It was two hours worth of [...]

Last year’s inaugural global celebration of fashion was such a monumental and successful event that this year’s repeat required massive changes to equal the momentum behind the movement.  So what’s different this year?  For one, it’s going to take place over the span of TEN DAYS.  Across the globe, fashion meccas will stage their own [...]

I know I blogged before about the clothes being kinda hit or miss in this movie and, really, they were.  Some of the stuff they wore out in the desert was just eyebrow raising.  My style is more on the classic/contemporary side and I’m not much into big prints, bold graphics or any of that. [...]

Oy vey, I had been so eager to finally see this movie and when I finally did I was left utterly bored and sorely disappointed.  The writing left A LOT to be desired and the plot seemed so choppy.  The fashion, which I thought would be a redeeming factor, was kind of hit or miss [...]

I love my Kindle.  I’ve had it for over a year and have since read so many books.  It’s super convenient – I take it with me on the plane, to Starbucks, to the swing by the lake, any place where I can sit and read.  You really can read it in any light, it’s [...]

I’m so excited to see this movie that I almost typed this entire sentence in caps.  I don’t care about any bad reviews, I don’t care that it’s too long, I don’t care that it’s unrealistic and blah blah blah. I dying to see the clothes – I’m already in love with just about every [...]

I saw Ironman 2 last weekend and I don’t know what Robert Downey Jr’s people did but man did he look GOOD. Bravo.
I love superhero movies.  I don’t care how ridiculous they are.  The two hours of crazy impossibilities are rather enjoyable to me.  The more stunts and explosions and flying and fighting, the better. [...]
