If there’s one thing that annoys me about getting dressed up is how uncomfortable most dressy things are!  The Diane von Furstenberg ‘Baker’ Tie Front Dress relieves my anxiety though, it’s super comfy and chic.  With a draped looked, this modern, fluid dress accents your womanly curves and shows them off.  Diane von Furstenberg

Show off your brilliant sense of style with the Floral Crochet Tunic from Forever21.  Not only is the price brilliant, the look is amazing!  This beautiful sleeveless woven tunic with a floral crochet top and a waist tie sash is perfect for either spring with a light cover up or jacket over it (just to keep warm), and stays perfect through summer while it’s warm enough to wear alone.  You’re sure to have enough wearing time to get what you paid for…but hey, it’s only $22.80, not too shabby!  Forever21

There’s nothing more comfortable than a stylish hoodie.  There’s nothing more annoying to me than people who wear tasteless hoodies that are either too big or just plain boring (like sports or college hoodies).  The KJ Clothing - Angelica Zip Up Hoodie is perfect for a day of relaxation.  With angel wings printed on the back of this hoodie it’s sure to turn some heads.  Now there are no excuses for all of you lazy people out there.  Be comfortable and look cute too, it’s almost effortless!  Kitson Boutique

The Miu Miu White Patent-Leather Pump With Cup Of Tea Heel from their Summer 2008 Collection is a shoe straight from Alice and Wonderland.    My first thought when I saw this pump was “oooolala!”.  Wear it to tea parties or to lunch with the girls, and let them envy you!

The H&M Heart Bag has captured my heart.  Perfect for Valentines Day or for any romantic night on the town.  Only $29.90 USD at H&M.

While searching for a new purse I came across the Lambertson Truex ‘Breakers’ Bag and immediately did a double take.  Who knew they made bags out of wicker!  Kinda neat and unique for the warmer months.  Choose from Gold/Beige or Black/Beige.

Alas spring is just around the corner, which means it’s time to change footwear.  No more dreary winter shoes, it’s time to sport something more cheery when strutting your stuff this spring.  The Maica from ASICS is a perfect fit!  This lightweight versatile flat comes in White/Brown or White/White.  Sizes 5-12.  $55 USD. ASICS

Old Navy has a new marketing approach for this Spring. While the brand positions itself as “fashion and value” for adults and kids, Old Navy has narrowed its target customer to all of the twenty-somethings out there. With sexier, edgier new styles that focus on embracing both modernity and youth. The first Spring collection, called “Urban Explorer”, features global and ethnic prints, safari suits and pops of red. That will be followed by other collections that take inspiration from Palm Beach, surfing and the tropics.

I ran across this beautiful little dress from Voom and immediately put in on my spring wish list. Every girl needs that perfect babydoll dress. This Santa Fe print with exaggerated pockets and flowy material is ideal for any spring occasion. You can score this 100% silk dress at Blondette.

Class up your wardrobe with this new hit from Gucci. The ‘newton’ high heel open-toe lace-up booties with engraved Gucci script logo is sure to make a statement. With a 4.5″ heel don’t plan on walking anywhere too far! Gucci

A bit different than some of the Spring/Summer 2008 trends coming out, this is a Blue Floral Print Dress by Roberto Cavalli. Featuring a multicolored (but mostly blue) floral pattern, deep V-neck, three-quarter length sleeves with puffed shoulders. For $1,485 USD at eLuxury.

The news was broken today that Isaac Mizrahi will be leaving Target to become the creative director for Liz Claiborne. This new line will be revealed in Spring 2009, and will be a much anticipated collection. I’ll miss browsing the racks at Target, and seeing the Isaac Mizrahi label on the surprising, and stylish garments, but will look foward to seeing the new line. The customer base is different, but I have a feeling that Mizrahi’s flare will show through and be recognizable to the loyal Target shoppers (like myself).
