Gap Jewel T-strap Sandal $30

So it’s spring and your tootsies have been bundled up in boots for the past seven months-ish. Do yourself (and everyone else) a favor and get a pedicure before you break out these jeweled, fancy finds and your feet start getting all the attention. You could even match the polish to the gem. […]

Tsumori Chisato for La Redoute Blouson Tee $30

With its specially commissioned designer duds, I consider La Redoute the French version of Target. Past designers have included Karl Lagerfeld, Vanessa Bruno, Joseph and Emanuel Ungaro, and Jean Paul Gaultier. Tsumori Chrisato has recently joined the ranks, and has breathed new life into the old standby tee with touches like […]

Forever 21 Bold Chain Necklace $6.80

This chain link necklace is so Dynasty, which (happily) is back in. What’s not back in: feathered hair and shoulder pads. And I pray to all things holy that it stays that way.

Asos Chiffon Cami And Tie Side Short $11.40*

This pretty, sheer set has a very vintage feel to it, and the lace trim and side bow are nice touches. The latter may be a bit impractical, but I guess practicality is beside the point, right?
*Down from $42.

Bath and Body Works Goldie Face Kit $15

I know I’m not the only one who thinks makeup kits are suspect. It’s a sick deal until you realize out of thirty-seven glosses, there’s only one that doesn’t make you look like a clown. I have high hopes for this Goldie kit, however, considering I’ve liked every gloss I’ve tried thus far. […]

Fred Flare Nicole Sunglasses $8

OK fine, they might be pimped by every Nicole, Lindsay, and Mary-Kate around, but I still love them for their ability to hide my flagrant staring at people on the street.

Isaac Mizrahi for Target Jacket $35

The photo doesn’t come close to doing it justice. This cotton, double-breasted, short (slightly puffy) sleeved jacket has a modern cut at a old school price. Snag one now before the website sadly informs you that they’re out. (I hate getting that message.)

Gentille Fille White Lace Necklace $18

I think it’s safe to say that Gentille Fille is one of the best sites on the Internet. The concept: LA-based Caroline Sirand “scours her favorite thrift shops and auctions for vintage fabrics and jewelry findings from around the world to create one of a kind feminine and flirty pieces” that she sells […]

Mark Pulse Point Fragrance Concentrate $10

This little wonder houses two roll-on fragrances in one vial, and although the names sort of freak me out (Algae and Mud) the scents are lovely (bergamot/lemongrass and sandalwood/vanilla musk, respectively). Perfect to stash in your purse for an after crowded-summer-subway refresher.
