I think I’ve found a new obsession: Ruthie Davis shoes! Sky high and gorgeous, the shoes come in a rainbow of colors–from neon pink and yellow to black and white with a twist.
I like these $895 Sushi Double Platform Mary Janes:
From the front they may look like regular black peep toes, but turn around and…bam!
I’m suddenly in love with peplums, short overskirts or ruffles attached at the waistline to a jacket, blouse, or dress. The look is hot right now in the UK…only a matter of time before it hits American shores. Get a leg up on the trend with this Rule Breaker Dress in Gray from Lulus:
The strapless style is great for a night out, and $35 is the perfect price for a splash in the pan piece.

I was over at Glamour’s blog, and came across a good discussion they were having over the definition of plus sized:
In a photo shoot, they featured a woman they called plus sized who was actually a size 10– ‘real sized’ by most standards.
We’ve come across the same discussion before in a Plus Sized Style Spotlight about former ANTMer Toccara.
Readers were upset that we classified her as plus size saying, “Tocarra is NOT a plus size model. Tocarra is like a size 6 haha. She just has big knockers. But Im a big girl and I wear a 16…that’s plus size to us real women.”
Bold and Beautiful said, “I don’t think she is plus size anymore. Just my opinion,” and BRG said, “I don’t see anything plus sized about Toccara.”
In Hollywood, is everyone above a 6 considered ‘plus sized’?
Known for things from the cute and quirky perspective, Fredflare.com doesn’t disappoint with this one…
With just the right amount of bling, it’s pretty cute and can go well with just about any day outfit for summer. You can get this ring for $24 here.

While searching around on Facebook, I came across the Spring/Summer 2009 collection of UK Designer Emmy Collins. After looking at just a few pictures, I realized that Emmy was a veritable talent–one you should definitely know:
Inspired by Jimmy Hendrix, Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Fela Kuti, Lenny Kravitz, and Gwen Stephani, Emmy says his clothes are, “characterized by sharp, funky tailoring and a fresh, startling approach to color.” Take a look:
If you like what you see, check out Emmy’s past collections on his website, www.emmycollins.com.
Also check out his facebook album for more pix of the Spring/Summer 2009 collection.
It’s okay. You can pick your jaw up off the ground now. But after looking at these, it’s clear to see why it was there in the first place. With its netted cage and the gold platform, these Pucci stunners are ideal for any glam girl. They cost $1,085, and you can get them here.
