Mad About Accessories

barbara

I love shopping for accessories.  I could shop for them any day and any time.  Yes, I am an accessory junkie.  What woman doesn’t like accessories eh?  Fashion accessories are an important fashion  element for a woman.  While my husband is into car accessories, I cannot get enough of earrings, bracelets and necklaces.  These accessories can easily update your wardrobe without breaking the bank account.  My current favorites are these :-

Shopping For A Black Bag

barbara

Do you know that I do not have a black handbag?  This is insane eh?  A black handbag is a must-have for every woman.  It is something that should not be left out in a woman’s closet.  Some women even have a few black handbags.  It has been in style for like, forever and will continue to be a favorite to women of all ages.   Yet, I don’t have one.  This is why I have been shopping around for one recently.  Okay, I have also been shopping around for some eye creams to get rid of my dark eye circles but that’s the story for another day 🙂  I like bags that are big because I have too many things to carry with me….lipstick, comb, mobile phone, extra clothing for my daughter, wet wipes, tissues, pen, notepads and many more.  I found some really gorgeous bags at Lulus.com.

Shoe Closet Makeover With Crocs

barbara

I love shopping for shoes.  I do not know what it is about shoes but I just adore them.  I have been called a shoeholic by my family and friends.  One of my favorite shoe brands is Crocs.  They are just so comfortable and cool.   There are many different types of Croc shoes.  My first pair of Crocs is the Beach collection in Pearl.   I was so happy when they came out with wedges.  Needless to say, I have a pair of Sassari and Havana in my shoe cupboard now.  My husband is also a big fan of Crocs and since both of us are crazy over them, we also bought a few pairs for our 4 year old daughter.  I just saw their new collection for Fall.  I am so in love with their new Lily.

So, if you are interested in updating your shoe collection for Fall/Winter, do check out the Crocs promotion now. When you buy a pair of any new Fall collection, you will get a pair of the Spring collection free.  Hurry and check out the Crocs coupons.   I am sure you don’t want to miss out on this fabulous deal.   I cannot wait to tell my friends who are great fans of Crocs about the Crocs coupons.

Burberry Autumn/Winter 2009

My husband asked me to check out some floor tiles for his office but somehow, I found myself checking out the fabulous Burberry collection *grins*  Burberry is one of my favourite brands.  I love those classic plaids.

I can’t help but notice the model wearing a few wide-legged pants in this collection.  So, is wide-legged pants back into the fashion scene?

Dress O Dress

barbara

I was at the mall yesterday and could not resist going into Banana Republic for a peek.  I saw the most gorgeous silk dress at the store.   It is the Heritage Silk Back-zip Dress.  So simple and elegant.   This dress would be perfect for a party which I will be attending next month.  However, I did not get it.  Well, not yet.   It is the end of the month so I am thinking of buying it once I get my paycheck next month.   I actually took the dress and lined up at the cashier for payment.  Whilst waiting in line (the cashier was fiddling with their POS systems….some error occurred, I think), I changed my mind and put the dress back.   I have been thinking about this lovely Heritage dress all day.  Can’t wait till I get my paycheck.

Denims I Love

barbara

I have started to take some weight loss pills recently in order to lose a few pounds. Been eating nonstop lately.  Then, after I have lost some weight, I am going to get myself a few pair of gorgeous jeans from Gap.  The first pair is a perfect blue boot  jean that shapes to the body.  It lifts the seat and eliminates the gap at the back of the waist.  I like the second  pair of real straight jeans.  Sexy huh?  It is cut straight through the hip and leg for a slimming look.  In order for me to look good in these jeans, I really have to lose a few pounds first.

Clark Shoes Are The Best Shoes

barbara

Shopping for shoes is one of my favourite pastimes because I love shoes. I can never get enough of them. Most of all, I love Clarks shoes. They are just the most comfortable shoes ever and I could walk hours in them.  I have Clarks leather sandals, boots and maryjanes.   Recently, I feel in love with their Alameda Copper Wedge Shoe.  I love its colour and the natural cork bottom.  This stylish pair of wedges goes well with denims and maxi dresses.  I am going to buy this and add to my collection of Clarks shoes.

Cropped Jeans From Gap

Love this real straight cropped jeans from Gap. The charcoal grey colour is just perfect for Fall.  Made with 99% cotton and 1% spandex.  This stretch denim is low rise and designed to lift and flatter.  Pair it with a shirt or a blazer.  I wonder if I would lose a few pounds before wearing this hot denim.

Peace & Love Brooch

I love vintage stuff, especially this lovely Peace & Love Brooch at CharmandChain.com.  This unique brooch features vintage peace sign,assorted vintage woven buttons and funky charm.   Vintage cloth is used to make it look like flowers.   Brooches are great to decorate your favourite blazer or add some sparkle to your winter coat.  If you are looking to perk up your look with vintage style, then this Peace & Love Brooch is what you need.

Beautiful Tunic By Lucky Brand Jeans

barbara

Our health insurance is almost due for renewal so my husband has asked me to look for a cheap health insurance as our current one is not very affordable.  I will check it out as soon as I am done shopping for this lovely top at Lucky Brand Jeans.  I love this Coachella tunic which features a border print inspired by Mexican fabric.  It is flowy, comfortable and stylish.  Available in Lucky Black and Sangria Red.   Looks best when paired with skinny jeans.  Can’t wait to wear this.  Ok…have to start shopping for cheap health insurance now.
