I BAG YOUR PARDON

Isn’t it fabulous when someone stops you to ask where you got your shoes, coat or handbag?? I love it. And a cutesy clutch will do just that. I found some very affordable clutches (all under $100) in brilliant colors and jewels that will give your holiday outfit that extra something.

TREND ALERT: Spanish Fragrances

Latin fever is sweeping the Dillard’s Department Stores fragrance counter, just like Ricky Martin shook his bon bon all the way to the top of the charts, Jennifer Lopez took the throne as a pop music diva and Javier Bardem triumphed over last year’s Academy Awards. Straight from the rich cultural heritage of Spain – one that heralds the quirkiness of a Pedro Almodovar film and the Hollywood chic-ness of Penelope Cruz -- a new selection of exhilarating fragrances has landed at 50 doors of the Southern-tiered clothing stores Dillard’s. These high-style Spanish scents crafted by Idesa Parfums, S.A., and Perfúmes y Deseño, are a highly-prized, exotic complement to Dillard’s already “prestigious” fragrance counters and enforce the retailer’s ongoing runway worthy expansion of luxury fashion brands.

Hummm…No Dillard’s in Chicago, and I’d rather go to Neiman Marcus to see if they are selling any fabulous Spanish imports!

TREND ALERT: Gray Nail Polish for Fall '08

The answer to last fall's black nail craze is GREY nail polish. I've seen grey nails popping up here and there. If you recall, I trended grey polish this summer after seeing it on Rihanna. I tried a dark grey-metallic myself last week but I have dark skin and something about the color combo was off. Therefore I suggest our paler ladies to go for the med-dark grey nail polish like Rescue Beauty's Stormy or OPI Give me the Moon and darker skins to try a pale grey shade like Moon over Mambi by OPI. Lippmann has a very dark grey metallic polish if you dare! I believe Gwen Paltrow is wearing Sephora by OPI, Metro Chic , a smokey gray purplish hue.
