Ogle to Own! Farfetch Sale

Have something fancy you've been eyeing?  Take a spin around Farfetch.com and see if it happens to be on sale!

If it's on sale, use code xx20june15 for an extra 20% off.  Here are some of my picks from the sale.

If you've been wanting something from the Valentino Rockstud collection, here's your chance.  After the discount it's a little over $1,500.



If you've been wanting a new sneaker that's not a Vans slip on (because those are all the rage right now), pick up this adorable pair from Sophia Webster.  I saw these in person recently and really regret not getting them.  I LOVE THE UNICORNS!  Less than $100.  BAM.

Wanting to change up your work wardrobe or rock pants to an upcoming wedding?  These trousers by Fleur Du Mal are awesome at $294.  For work, they can be paired with a simple blouse, but be bold for a wedding and choose a fun crop top and some big earrings!



Speaking of fun earrings, there's a great selection of luxe costume jewelry in this sale too.  I loved all the Moschino bear stuff this past season (must be after that time I regretted not getting the Charlotte Olympia Gummi Bear clutch...) and now the earrings are on sale for $185.60.
I've been loving multi-prints lately, and here's a dress I want RIGHT NOW by Philosophy for a little over $450.




Some of these things are definitely a departure from my usual color palette, so here are my favorite black and white pieces.





Happy shopping!!  Oh and Happy Father's Day :)

SO much Ogling: Oscars 2015

The Oscars are the marathon of couture fashion and so, I have to tell you which ladies I thought really killed it on the Carpet.  See my top picks!

Rosamund Pike in Givenchy

The texture behind the red and that slit are to DIE FOR.  I also love her dainty little red shoe.  She's a vision.  I also like that she didn't choose to wear too much jewelry since I think the dress does a lot of the talking on its own.

Naomi Watts in Armani

Naomi look BOMB.  I love that she picked a more modern looking dress rather than just another strapless gown.   While kind of hard to see in this picture, she was wearing these GIANT earrings that really made this outfit. 

Reese Witherspoon in Tom Ford

The gorgeous simplicity of Tom Ford on Reese Witherspoon is so glamorous.  It creates a beautiful silhouette on her body.  She chose really fun earrings that were like little clusters of stars. This whole look makes Reese look young and refreshing.  

Margot Robbie in Saint Laurent

I can't believe that Margot has ended up on Worst Dressed lists!  It's crazy!  Her dress might be a little less flashy than your average Oscars get-up, but I think she looks modern and sophisticated.  I LOVED her makeup.

There you have it.  MY PICKS!  Hope you enjoyed!

Ogle, Obsess, Own: Stay Warm with New Coats

Up until now, I had been thinking that we would have a mild winter here in New York...a few storms later, I'm taking that back.

When I was walking out of my apartment yesterday to brave the cold, I looked in the mirror and I looked like a mess- I had lost all my individuality behind this black puffy coat and pom pom beanie.  My winter jacket was boring and tired.  My knit hat was looking ragged from enduring all the rain and snow.  My scarf is awesome.  It's probably the only awesome thing about my winter uniform.

Roaming the streets all I could see was a sea of Canada Goose jackets and LL Bean boots.  Nothing wrong with those things- they keep you nice and warm when the weather is awful, but there's more out there in the world of winter outerwear.

So what now?  It's time to do some shopping!  Here are things I would choose to spruce up my winter wear that are functional and still cute!

So, prices for coats range from affordably Ownable to overly expensive Ogle-able.  Here are the ones that I love:

This is a really cute and unique patterned coat from Dirk Bikkembergs at under $300


From my Obsess category, here's a pretty red coat by Jil Sander for under $600!

I also love this Camel/Black mixed coat by Atto.


And if you want to go REALLY luxe, here are my two choices.  Break that bank!

I love this ultra LUXE version of the winter parka by Mr. & Mrs.- the black fur on black parka is so classic and pretty.



If you want something a little more fitted, Givenchy has this beautiful option

Look, I know the last two coast are black, but I love black after all and if I was going to shell out bucks for an Ogle-worthy coat, it would be black, but there are a lot of really beautiful colorful coats out there for those of you who want to bring a little color to the winter.

Get shopping!  It's snowing again in NYC already...

Ogle to Own: Cyber Dream Buys

While I didn't get anything for myself during this Cyber Shopping Frenzy, there are tons of things out there that I wish I had bought!

Ahhh, the glories of having a blog...now I can tell you guys all about it!  Alrighty then!  Let's get started....time's a-wastin'!
These Givenchy Boots.  They're at a great discount and they're an extra 15% off at Yoox.com with the code YOOXTHANKS which brings them to about $370.  This puts them in my Obsess range...but for some of you that might be Own range!  Get them while the sizes are still available.

Nars Bronzer and Blush duo.  I've never been a huge makeup person, but I think that having a great bronzer and blush to shape the face really makes a difference and Nars makeup has the staying power to last all day. They have 20% off with the code NARSFF2012 bringing this duo down to under $33.

Peter Jensen's Fox Sweater.  Otte is putting their whole site on sale - 20% off!  This fox sweater is adorable and whimsical.  Just what you need for a cold winter.  

Bling bling bling!  This feather charmed necklace by Sydney Evan is on Belle and Clive today and they are offering an extra 10% off all purchases.

There are so many other lovely things out there.  Is there something that you're Ogling or Obsessing over??
