Tiffany & Co. Handbags!
The beginning of this month marked a very special occasion. Tiffany & Co. launched their line of handbags! It is called “The Tiffany Leather Collection” and they range in price from $595… …to $17,800… …with many in between… These fine handbags, totes and clutches can be purchased online at Tiffany.com or in select Tiffany & Co. stores. 1
Couture Cotton
Many of us dream of experiencing the luxury of Chanel couture, however the fact is, it is economically unattainable for most. So, for many women lounging in their boudoirs gazing starry eyed at their September issue of Vogue magazine, this dream will never come to fruition. However, there are may ways that the average woman can still experience that heart palpitating moment of walking into a fine boutique and coming out with a shopping bag; even on a budget. What I am about to share with you won’t set you back any more than a half tank of gasoline. You see the name of this post, do you not? You…
Bump My Bouffant (…but wait…there’s more!)
Sex Kitten Bump. Beehive. Hair Bump. Bouffant. Bitch Bump. No matter what you call it, we’ll settle in the middle on “bump” for the purposes of this post. You’ve seen the infomercial for Bumpits. Promising to add instant hair volume, leaving you with the perfect “bump”. When I first saw the advertisement, I wanted them, but I wasn’t willing to pay the $20 + shipping for something that might not work. Then, the commercial became a household joke, because some of the “bumps” are so over-the-top that they look ridiculous. So, I never did fall for the “…and that’s not all” pitch. Long before a Bumpits commercial and the debut…
Little Bo(udoir) Peep
Not many items say feminine like ruffles. Yep, just like Little Bo Peep’s undergarments….. …..but now instead of just wearing them on your knickers for a “peep“….. …..you can now enjoy them for a sleep in the “bo”udoir as well. Undergarments shown are from babygirlboutique.com. They have a nice selection of vintage-inspired lingerie. Bedding/Pillows shown are from horchow.com. 1
Marilyn Merlot
No, I did not misspell “Monroe”. Marilyn Merlot is just as it sounds…a nice blend of Marilyn Monroe and Merlot wine. One evening in 1983 over dinner and a bottle of Merlot, a small group of friends who dabbled in homemade wines, dreamed up Marilyn Merlot. In 1985, they started Marilyn Wines and gave birth to the official “legendary” wine collection…Marilyn Merlot. A moderately priced collectible wine with the breathtaking Marilyn Monroe on the label. Each year on June 1st, in honor of Marilyn’s birthday, a new bottle is released. A few days ago, a bottle of 2008 Marilyn Merlot was released. This is the image that graces the front…
Baking…in Charlotte York Goldenblatt Style
I’m sure during the next couple of months, the fashion magazines, tabloids and blogs will all be buzzing about where to find the fashions of SATC2. I’m not sure that this exactly qualifies as “fashion”, but let’s get a head start, shall we? If you’re anything like Charlotte York, you probably enjoy baking (especially with your little girl) and there is no better way to look the part than to wear this delightful cupcake apron by Jessie Steele. After all, every lady must leave the boudoir and spend time in the kitchen occasionally, so why not look fashionable while you’re at it? This darling vintage inspired apron, like the one…

Barbie Style
If you liked the Living Like Barbie post, you’re sure to love the new Barbie Plastic Collection. This collection features some luxurious home furnishings and fashion. Never mind the hypnotizing circle in the background, what you need to zone in on is that darling chair right in the center. Suitable for lady and little girl boudoirs alike, this rendition of Philippe Starck’s Louis Ghost Chair is so charming. It combines the sleek glamorous design of the traditional Louis Ghost Chair, but ads some whimsy with the Barbie profile sketch and subtly speaks to the feminine in all of us with the color pink. I think this would be such a…
Eugenia Kim Hits the Bull’s-Eye
Do you know about Eugenia Kim? This is how I learned about her a few years ago. I don’t normally fancy a knit cap, however, this one is ADORABLE and I just had to find out who the designer was. After some searching online, I found out about milliner extraordinaire, Eugenia Kim. Here are some of her other designs. Didn’t I tell you? They’re amazing, right? But…the majority of us probably don’t plan on plunking down $265 on a casual hat, much less $135 for a headband. Now, here’s the really great part of the story…wait for it… Eugenia Kim has designed a line for Target! It will be available…
Sunday’s Best: FrenchBlue
As part of my Sunday’s Best series (which I’ve been slacking on), I wanted to feature one of my favorite posts from a lovely blog that I follow. The blog is called FrenchBlue. The post is on Fauchon of Paris. What is Fauchon, you ask? Fauchon is a traiteur in Paris. A traiteur is basically a retailer of fine foods, that are mostly ready to eat (a fancy grocery/deli of sorts). Fauchon appears to focus a little more on the sweet side. Being obsessed with all things french (particularly Parisian), I was delighted to find out about Fauchon. I felt like the whole world knew about this fabulous place, except…
