Bold Black and White

I love bright colors and prints (although I can be pretty picky about prints), but I often revert to classic black and white.  The strong lines of this BCBG dress AND the black and white make this dress super fine.  Although I can't tell from the picture of the bitty model, I think the dress's design will flatter most body types.  Check out the rest of the BCBG dresses on ideeli today!

Jack Rogers Flats

You cannot walk anywhere in DC without seeing a girl wearing Jack Roger sandals. Women of all ages love them and I recently came across these Jack Roger Flats and really like them. They break up the monotony of the sandals. They come in a few different colors and it's nice that these can easily transition into fall. They also had a lot of positive reviews online, I might consider these for this fall. Perfect for Ithaca because sandals do not last long!

Pucci Medallion

So shoe medallions can be a bit tacky, especially when it feels like are knock offs of Tory Burch!  But what about these Pucci slingbacks?  They've been on sale at shoes.com for awhile.  I really like the black patent and the turquoise color combo.  But I might be biased by my Pucci infatuation.

Laser Cut Purple

Right now Gilt has a sale on these Casadei pumps. I love the purple, I think they would look great with a simple black dress. The "laser cut" is such a neat texture. Regular price $725.00; Gilt price $229. I want these so bad!

Guilt Noir

Gilt Groupe provides access, by invitation only, to men's, women's and children's coveted fashion and luxury brands at prices, per the company, of up to 70% off retail. Equestrian Sailor and I post lots of items from their sales. They often have very expensive items, thousands of dollars. I always wondered who was buying the $9,000 Chanel necklaces and vintage bags, I thought the site was mainly girls like myself trying to find good deals on high fashion.



That is until I discovered the elite Gilt Groupe: Gilt Noir. Gilt Noir is reserved for the top .01% of its customers. The founders Maybank & Wilson, considered only shoppers who spent at least $10,000 on Gilt's site per year. The members of Gilt Noir have access to sales 15 minutes sooner than all the rows at Gilt Groupe. Noir members also get invites to other special events and closed sales.


Another Noir on Gilt, I found this Bottega look alike for only $125.00. I know equestrian sailor will be happy about this find.

(not so simple) leather pumps

$595

Crabby Summer

This See by Chloe tank is perfect for the beginning of summer...I would love it under a seersucker jacket!

Recently I've seen Ava Rose all over...Pair Cooper the Crab with your seersucker ensemble...Too much? I think not.  Not anything particularly ground-breaking, but Ava Rose's bags are easy on the eyes and playful!

Time for some color

I am sorry but these watches are fugly in so many ways. The Marc Jacobs letters are obnoxious and the half clear plastic looks like the plastic on kids toys. You can find a much cheaper and cuter bright colored watch that look way better than these.





$175.00

The Michael Kors watch is much better looking in all the colors he offers. I am a little bias because I love his watches.

$195.00



I still prefer the Nixon watches I blogged about. They retail at $60.00 and are perfect for a colorful watch. You want to wear your watches a lot, and with some of the crazy colors it makes it hard to justify spending a lot of money on one you may not wear often.

$60.00

I personally love the Michael Kors color watch, Zodiac also has a large selection of colorful watches.

Periwinkle Playsuit

You either hate or love jumpers(playsuit). I used to be a hater until I realized how comfortable and easy they are; now I am a huge fan. This Shay Todd jumper is adorable! The editors note on net-a-porter.com calls it a playsuit to wear to the beach, I would wear this anywhere.



$265

Ava Rose clutches

I love silver and white combo, corner accents, contrast piping, and asymmetrical flap..at ideeli for 62! That's 70% off:)

Tortoise Love

Just to add to my tortoise and Tory Burch obsession...

Bing Bang Key Bangle

$155.00

I love this twist on the popular key jewelry. It is fresh and different from the typical Tiffany Key collection or other knock-off looks. It is part of Anna Sheffield's Bing Bang jewelry line. A favorite among celebrities such as Mandy Moore, Cameron Diaz, and Kirsten Dunst. Also, for all the Kappa Kappa Gamma readers, this is a unique look for our typical key couture.
