Check Out These Blogs!

We would like to introduce you to the first 4 blogs to be added to our 'Blogs We Love' section. First we have Access Fashion, which according to them is a blog about "knitting, crochet, needlework, and other forms of handmade textiles in high fashion and art". Next we have Couture in the City. This blog claims that if you are "looking for the latest in fashion designers, celebrity style, trends, what to wear and how-to solutions", this is the place to go! Then, we have Haute Mimi which refer to themselves as a " premier fashion weblog dedicated to all things fabulous". How could we not love that? And last, we have Magic Unleashed and while this is not a fashion blog, it is definitely a great place to go to read about life with "a teenage son and a zoo (2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 rabbit, 1 turtle and 3 millipedes)". That sure is a lot of pets (and pets are fabulous)!

So, check out these fabulous blogs and let us know what you think! If you'd like to be included in our 'Blogs We Love' section, send me a message or comment with a link to your blog so we can check it out!

Having a SHEmergency?

So, we've all been there. Your out with friends and you get a snag in your tights, what do you do? Well, first you panic..then you wish you had some clear nail polish to stop the run (whoever figured that out is a complete genius, by the way).

Little things like a run in your tights or splitting your pants can totally bring a good night down in an instant, this is why the Shemergency Survival Kit was created. It contains everything you could possibly need to keep yourself fabulous throughout the night. For example, it has:

• Folding Brush with Mirror
• Earring Backs
• Clear Nail Polish
• Mending Kit
• Stain Remover
• Tampons
• Pain Reliever
• Deodorant Wipes
• Adhesive Bandages
• Plus a lot more!

But, the best part is it is only $20 at WishingFish.com, which is cheaper than if you tried to make this kit yourself!

Everything included comes in a portable mesh case that will fit in your bag, so you never should leave home without it!

Fall Nail Colors




Alright girls, it is fall so it's time to retire your pale colored nail polish until next summer. My favorite new colors are Siberian Nights and Russian Navy, both by OPI. Siberian Nights is a very dark purple and Russian Navy is well navy. Remember opt for shorter nails this season. And if these colors aren't for you, do something original and different next time you get a manipedi. And by original I do not mean super long nails with air brushing.

This is Halloween.

This weekend is Halloween weekend. Put on a costume and go out. Let your hair down and enjoy yourself. It's the only time you can dress up in a cape and wear fangs and not get looked at like a crazy person. Remember how exciting a big bag of candy was when you were a kid? Forget your diet and enjoy the weekend.

Tips for Halloween:
1. It is ok to look sexy, just remember that 50% of the girl's out will be wearing that school girl costume you bought. Be sexy and unique.
2. Costumes can be funny, opt for something that your friends will think is perfect for you.
3. Costumes do not have to be bought in a store. Make your own.
4. Do not kiss boys wearing masks, they are probably not cute. Make him take the mask off first.

Tip of the Week


Alright girls, life is hectic and busy. You are working, going to school, raising children, or doing all of the above. This week find 30 minutes for yourself. Take a bath. I don't mean the kind of bath you take to get hot for a date. I mean the kind of bath where you don't shave your legs or do any other primping. Fill the tub as high as it will go with hot water, add some bath salts, light some candles, lock the door and leave your cell phone in the other room. relax, it's fabulous.

Cole Haan

High heels are fabulous and can make most outfits look more stylist and sophisticated. I'm sure most of you have had some of the same problems I have with them. They Hurt! If you have to walk long distances or are going to be standing for a long night, the last thing you want to do is put on a pair of gorgeous stilettos. I know, I know, you do it anyway because you would look silly wearing your new dress and a pair of sneakers.

Cole Haan is a brand that makes women and mens shoes, handbags, accessories, and coats. And luckily for us, they make heels that have Nike Air technology. They are made especially for comfort and of course style. They have amazing design and technology that will keep you dancing all night long. I am dying for a pair or seven. They come in low, mid, and high heel.


This sexy high heeled boot will be perfect for winter.




These deep wine colored velvet heels will be perfect for the work day and can be worn with jeans for a sexy day look.



These tweed shoes are the must have fabric and pattern for the season.




I don't know about you, but I need to start saving my money for some comfortable heels. It has to be better to have one pair of fabulously comfortable heels than 20 pairs that make you want to kill yourself an hour into the night.

Away

Hey. Ash and I were out of town for the weekend so we were unable to post. I hope you didn't miss us to much! I hope you all had a Fabulost weekend.

Cowshed

I just discovered these great new company, Cowshed, that has amazing beauty products. They offer shampoos, conditioners, body wash, hand creams, and pretty much everything else you need to have a fabulous bath. The great thing about these products is that they are completely handmade. Their products are all natural and vegetarian. They use pure essential oils, herbal infusions and flower waters. I have been using a shampoo and conditioner from them and absolutely love it. They smell great, but the smell is not overwhelming. Cowshed products leave my hair feeling clean and soft. All of their products are made in the UK and have herbs that are hand picked from the original Cowshed spa at Babington House in Somerset, England. It doesn't get more fabulous than that.

Fabulost tip of the week

Attention girls, Charlotte Russe, you know that trendy cheap store in the mall, has put most if not all of there shoes on sale for %30-%50. Thats awesome considering most of their shoes are about $2o anyway. Cheap trendy stores are great because you can buy clothes or accessories that are trendy for the season and stop wearing them when the fad has run it's course and not have wasted a lot of money on something that you can't wear for very long.

Dior bags

Christian Dior handbags are my all time favorite. The styles and materials make them some of the most glamorous and original handbags around. And for most of us, completely unaffordable. Fortunately eluxury.com offers some of Christian Dior's fall collection for less than department stores.





This bag is an absolute must for fall. The black patent leather will allow you to dress it down with jeans or pair it with your favorite little dress and head out for night.




One of my other favorite bags from the fall collection is this Nylon tote. The gray color shown is a perfect color for winter. It comes in gray, black and purple.






This bag is absolutely gorgeous. What girl can resist a fuchsia bag? No detail is left out. Check out the website for more pictures of this flawless bag. I might be willing to sell my future first born for this bag.




Lastly, the most fabulous thing about Christian Dior handbags and my personal favorite is the saddle bag. It is the most original shape and design for handbags. They offer these bags every season in new fabrics and colors.

Urban Decay




Every year around the holidays Urban Decay puts out an eye shadow palette of the years best selling eye shadows. Luckily for you, this year is Urban Decay's ten year anniversary and they have created an eye shadow pallet for this joyous occasion. If you are new to Urban Decay here are a few things you should know. They have the most extreme colors from bright blues, greens and pinks to more subdued colors. Urban Decay is perfect for day or an evening out. All of their eye shadows are perfectly formulated to look as good on you as they do in the pallet. I love Chopper and Midnight Cowboy for a subtle yet sparkley daytime look. Last Call, Mary Jane and Stray Dog are perfect for night. For the girl who loves bright noticeable makeup (like me) go for Flash, Stalker, Goddess, or Shattered. Luckily Urban Decay has tons of bright colors. And keep in mind if you are in professional settings, Urban Decay has a line of matte eye shadow with less sparkle and less intense hues. I love to use Oil Slick as an accent for nights out. I use Vapor everyday for a brow highlighter. Remember girls, you don't want to look like a drag queen unless you are intentionally going for that look. Blend, Blend, Blend.

Fabuless


Ok enough of the fabulously unattainable Chanel. Normal girls need fabulous party dresses too. Check out Target for this Audrey Hepburn circa Breakfast at Tiffany's inspired dress. Nice job Issac. Just pair it with some fabulous gloves and a fabulous shoe. I am not a huge fan of the silver shoes in the pic. I'd opt for an animal print stiletto. Since you saved so much money on your dress, maybe you can splurge on some Christian Louboutin .

Chanel Fall/Winter 2008





Alright lost girls, Chanel is fabulous. I have found some of my favorite pics from Chanel's fall/winter fashion show in Paris. Gotta love Karl Lagerfeld. What girl wouldn't feel amazing in one of these dresses. They would make quite an impact at your family Christmas party. And I just love the updated classic Chanel suit. Every girl needs one.
