Red Valentino shoes - Days 314 & 315

I have made known my bizarre love for cutesy prints like bows, cherries and gingham. I may not have mentioned that I love all that glitters and the cutesy prints on shoes too.

Red Valentino is launching the greatest shoes for Spring 2012 and I just had to post a pic or two of them on my blog.

Can you say LOVE!

Two tone shirts

I've been on the prowl for a  two-tone shirt ever since I saw it on the runways. Unfortunately it isn't that easy to find it at a bargain price, but I will not rest till I can be the bargainista I know I am and discover a 2-tone shirt at a great price.

I received an email from net-a-porter.com and it reminded me of my search, so I thought I'd share it with you.

Shock shock, horror, horror - Days 307 & 308

I have discovered, with great shock and sadness, that The Nate Berkus show has been cancelled and I am devastated! I absolutely love the show and I love Nate and I can't believe it. They are claiming that the ratings have not been as high as they wanted, so they are finishing the second season and then it is done...blah!!!

The Nate Berkus show has brought fabulous decorating, fashion and cooking advice into my life and I will miss my daily dose of Mr. Cutie-Pie (as Oprah calls him). He is one talented guy!

I will miss you Nate, and I hope that you will come back to tv soon!

Beige sweater, jeggings and brown boots

Scarves - Days 304 & 305

Since we are currently experiencing Winter in the Northern Hemisphere, I'm thinking about cooler ways to be warm and stylish at the same time.

Lately I'm wearing a lot more scarves because I just love the way that it can effortlessly transform an outfit and can take you from drab to fab in no time. It is also a great way to create 2 outfits out of 1 if you are travelling, which off course can be greatly advantages, afterall, who wants to wear the same looks on all your holiday/travel photos?

Gold top, Black top, skirt and boots as well as my fabulous VSA necklace

Everyone that I have told about this blog tells me I'm nuts to do it and I'm finally believing them for sure. You must be pretty bonkers to commit to wearing a new outfit every day for 365 days.

Just 65 days left of my crazy experiment - yay!
