I thought Victoria had mastered the art of seamless but hello the search for a panty-line-less look is now officially over.

About a year ago I blogged about a handbag hook I'd had my eye on. At $35 a pop the Luxe Link Purse Holder seemed like a fair enough deal... or at least I was so enticed by the novelty of the design of this compact style handbag hook that I bought one for my…

"Luxe" defined by Dictionary.com: luxury; elegance; sumptuousness: accommodations providing luxe at low rates. After talking with some people about my blog I realized I have never really defined what "Luxe" and the "Luxe Mix" is all about.

Aaaarhhh why didn't I just get them when I wanted them?? I think I've lost them forever. The Loeffler Randall Emmy Belted Boot is hot! I have this sick problem of sitting on purchases. e.g. I find something I want and tell myself that I'll come back later and get it. Of course I usually…

I had heard about some great site Amazon had created for shoes but how come it's so hard to find it? Well "Mo" showed me where it was today. Thanks Mo! Apparently they are still in beta but it's true, you get $5 back if you ship overnight. Have yet to try this out myself…

The first time I heard about these they seemed kind of gimmicky but so incredibly useful. How many times have you sat at a restaurant clutching your bag in your lap or had it hanging precariously off the back of a chair and have some clumsy waiter knock it off -- 3 times. Well I…
