I think that's true Bimbi. I have an Ulta in the shopping plaza where I work. I frequent it for my nail polish, Redken hair care products, and perfume because I get points when they scan my Ulta card; and... Read More

Bimbi I have to admit, as I looked through the Miss Sixty gallery of pics, I chuckled at every comment where you asked if the top was Miss Sixty, or if those were Miss Sixty jeans. It actually got me... Read More

Happy New Year Caryn! Read More

I have taken several pictures with my digital camera. Just a simple Kodak. In my move from Virginia I have lost the cord that connects camera to computer and have refused to get a new one because it HAS to... Read More

Stef I agree-totally try brown and post some pics. I wouldn't think I look good in brown but I do. I have so much brown in my wardrobe-one of my signature colors; and am really loving the shades of brown... Read More

I have never been to the Bluefly site....so browsed around a bit in the sale category. Holy Cow!! I saw some lovely things. A handbag designer "Tufi Duek" I think is how it's spelled. Never heard the name before-awesome handbags!!... Read More

Totally gave you the 5th star sweetie!!! Read More

Those are good tips Bimbi! We sold a houseful of stuff on Craigslist when we moved from VA back to CO. Start out general like you said and include key words that people may call the item. You may even... Read More

I just read your profile and you "sound" fabulous!! and funny! I was born and raised in Ohio. My parents still live in the house I grew up in. Go Buckeyes.... :) And like Heatheranne says-let's just ignore the ugly... Read More

So, I had a friends and family coupon for 40% off at the Banana and had to go buy the purple silk blouse I've had my eye on for some time. I also recently bought a teal top at Gap.... Read More

I think it's great for you to share information Caryn! You're "in the know" :) I like that you will offer up a positive comment when someone has posted something negative. I'm sure we could all find a favorite feature... Read More

Congratulations Farrielle2!! Well deserved-your pic was fabulous! Enjoy your awesome new bag! :) Read More

I'm with Jayman-I use and have used Redken for quite a long time now--shampoo, conditioner, and styling products. I really don't enjoy spending as much as I do on my hair but as I get older, I'm finding that I... Read More

I'm with you guys. I couldn't spend that much for mascara! My favorite mascara comes from Ulta and I even cringe at the $13 price tag. I can't imagine spending $60. To me that's like spending a hundred bucks for... Read More

I admit I don't buy ecofriendly clothes. I will say that I see it as a "trend" right now because "going green" is the in thing. You have celebrities that hop on the bandwagon about certain things, or the media... Read More

So true Bimbi...Found a fabulous pair of Seychelles at a discount store and got so excited but alas, they didn't have them in my size. Read More

So true Bimbi284-we look, admire, sigh, and walk away :) Just once, how much fun it would be to just plunk down the cash for a much coveted designer handbag. I believe I missed my calling. I was meant to... Read More

Well, alyabonfiglio, you must be a genius because your colors are hot this fall :) In the winter I love to use grey as one of my neutrals and this season I'm going to add a purple or turquoise blouse... Read More

Not sure about "hot designers" for fall, but I have been out and about and am enjoying the lines I'm seeing in the stores for fall. One of my favorites this season is Banana Republic-it has been a while since... Read More

When I have time (and when I remember...) I enjoy watching Project Runway. It's fun to see what the designers can do when they have to use unconventional items. I remember one season they had to use things from a... Read More

I'm not sure about sophisticated, but how about trying overstock.com. You never know what you'll find. I browsed it a little bit today looking for a lamp for my son's room and they have a a whole section on duvets.... Read More

I have a few different kinds of black pants. I am partial to cuffed trousers of any kind. With black I like to put a white blouse (same as moonchylde) but I also like to wear satin blouses. Depending on... Read More

Oh my gosh!! Vera Bradleys with the tags! Have you been in a Vera Bradley Boutique? So many different fabrics to choose from and you can get all sorts of items from notebooks to luggage and everything in between. They... Read More

OK, I totally checked out the buffaloexchange website and was impressed with the story and background. Not to mention there is a location in Denver. This will be a wonderful field trip on my next day off work. Thanks for... Read More

I have a group of friends and we all have nicknames. They call me "Fashionista". That's my compliment :) Working retail I see so many different people on a daily basis. When I see a woman with a fabulous outfit,... Read More

All the pics looked great! What fun that would be. It would be super cool to have an event in, oh, I don't know, the Denver area :) Read More

OK, another comment about the Lucky Shopping Manual...I know I already posted but I am just gonna make a plug for it cuz I went by the bookstore and looked at it again. It contains GREAT tips on how to... Read More

We have a Plato's Closet here in Colorado. I went in one in Ohio and it was fabulous. A large selection for, as alyabonfiglio put it, teens & twenty-somethings. Shoes, tops, pants, jeans, purses, accessories. The one here in Colorado... Read More

Awesome!!! I did enjoy this collection but I'm with moonchylde-it's a little young for me too :) Read More

I think they would be great on the right body. There are some clothing items that look better on a particular body shape, and I think leggings of any fabric would be one of those items. I, however, will not... Read More

Ooops-OK I am such a perfectionist-I spelled a word wrong-it's "you're" not "your" :) Read More

Your right moonchylde-he has some great large bags!! So love M. Kors! I'm saving my pennies for a splurge on a handbag. Read More

alyabonfiglio your shoes sound SO cute. There are some fantastic styles out for Fall. I have a slight shoe fetish and could drop a fortune on shoes if not more self controlled :) What I'm looking for, and maybe someone... Read More

I'm with moonchylde on this. I love scarves and think they add an interesting splash of color to an outfit. Most of my scarves are long and multi-colored and I wear them the same as moonchylde. I will sometimes wear... Read More

I am such an accessories snob :) When it comes to handbags and wallets etc., I'd rather have the real thing or just not do name brand. If it's something I'll use on almost a daily basis I'll splurge and... Read More

Sat in Barnes and Noble for a REALLY long time looking through the Lucky book. What a GREAT tool! I must own the newest book! I'm so glad someone else thinks so too. Read More

Watched the video and thought the clothing looked really interesting. I went into Tarjay and checked out a few of the items-wanted to see what it all looked like in person rather than just video. Actually really pretty. I also... Read More

Loooovvveeed my BR outlet when I lived in Virginia. Got pants for a steal. Shoes, bracelets, tops as well. Now I have to drive 40 minutes to get to one but it's worth it because BRs pants are a good... Read More

I think I'm conservative when it comes to nail polish. I think black or yellow is great for an edgier look but not for anything dressy. And JessicaR had a good point-not many skin tones can pull off yellow polish.... Read More

I have another comment to add-I went back and looked at some postings by a few participants and was so disheartened. It's only a couple people but the comments are downright rude. I can understand if you're Stacy and Clinton... Read More

I've never heard of Aquaphor-I'll have to check it out. Your last comment made me laugh-"road map of veins" :) I myself deal with dark under eye circles and puffiness and the products I'm currently using don't seem to be... Read More

Loehman's is GREAT! I just wish I didn't have to drive an hour to get to mine! I got a Bargain on Fendi perfume ($13)there. Read More

Thanks Stef, I will give it a try. :) Read More

I'm enjoying the Sept. issue as well. I really appreciated pp. 344-345 where they showed how to put together different outfits based on the style of the pieces. I'm able to get really good ideas on how to wear things... Read More

As the weather gets colder and heads toward winter, I have to add a more intense moisturizer for my face. Colorado is so dry in the wintertime. Anyone have a favorite sensitive- skin moisturizer they just love? Read More

I like to shop at TJMaxx for handbags. When I want a fun, trendy style they seem to be the place I have the most luck. I recently found a fabulous off white large patent handbag by DKNY on clearance.... Read More

Wasn't familiar with the brand Naughty Monkey but was intrigued by the name so I googled it. Some fabulous styles-quite a variety!! Don't know what the quality is like having never purchased any. Read More

I, like Stef, have seen all sorts of lengths. I think it should be about what looks best on your body-- the cut and length that is most flattering. And what you're comfortable in. I know for me I look... Read More

I'm looking for a couple fabulous sweaters. I want something that is eye-catching and has a "wow" factor. I love texture but avoid busy prints. I like to stay with solid colors in sweaters that still incorporate interest with texture... Read More

I have noticed a few harsh comments on a couple of pics. Honesty with tact works best if you feel compelled to comment. Encourage different fashion options without being negative and rude. If you can't manage that, perhaps don't say... Read More

I completely concur. Jessica Alba is absolutely lovely. Another favorite of mine is Anne Hathaway. She is such a beauty. One other is Catherine Zeta Jones. Both are beautiful women who, even though I'm sure they have stylists picking out... Read More

I had skin cancer and I will advocate using sunscreen and not tanning. Cancer can grow in your body for many years before it manifests on the surface of your skin. It is so much more common than I think... Read More

Weren't they initially made to be gardening/beach shoes? My kids wear them in the summer. Easy to throw on and ya don't have to wear socks :) I have seen women in the mall wear them as a dress shoe.... Read More

TJMaxx, Marshalls, Ross, Burlington Coat Factory-all great places to find bargains. Tahari, BCBG, DKNY, Calvin Klein etc. I find fabulous handbags at TJMaxx; clearance costume jewelry and home decor at Burlington Coat Factory; I also have found some amazing sterling... Read More

I completely understand. I work retail (alas, not fashion) and adapt my style to fit my customer. A friendly genuine greeting goes a long way. Offering assistance should they need it does too. I do not hound my customers but... Read More

I went in a LV boutique when I was in Hawaii. I just walked around and dreamed :) There are some lovely handbags! Picking a classic style was wise-something you can use for years and with any kind of outfit. Read More

A splurge to one person may not be the same for another :) I tend to splurge on great fitting jeans and pants. Even buying on sale seems to cost a lot when you go for name brand items. Spending... Read More

What are your must have items for Fall? Do you ever splurge on something that catches your eye; perhaps something you didn't really plan on buying? Read More

Because fall is my absolute favorite time of year I tend to avoid end of summer sales and already am looking ahead to fall fashion :) I've already started looking at fall clothes. I try to wait until things go... Read More

Thanks for the info! Your pic in the Urban Elegance contest looked fabulous by the way! :) Read More

Can someone explain how this works? I just joined Style Spotter. Thought it would fun to see how others put together outfits and look at the different styles women have. I've posted a few comments on some of the pics... Read More

This discussion is thought provoking. I love to shop and see what's out there. When it comes to making a purchase most of what I buy I want to keep in my wardrobe for a long time. So I need... Read More

In looking at your pics and fashion choices I can see why you have what you do on your list. Each item you listed is something that makes sense for you. Your slim body type lends itself well to your... Read More

I just bough a fun pair of black cargo type pants that can be worn long or rolled up and buttoned to make them capri length (which is how I want to wear them with the top I bought). The... Read More

Hi Stef, I can tell your style is casual. I too enjoy the casual look. When I'm not working I'm a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl. Although I LOVE getting dressed up and wearing fun outfits when I go... Read More

I'm just gonna say that you always look great in all your pics. And if you are as happy as you look, then you're a joy to be around for sure!!! Read More
