Be your own Valentine's

Valentine 's Day has always meant a day of extra care with my hair, maybe a miniscule more makeup then I usually wear, which is next to none. A day to be extra nice to your husband and extra flirty with everyone else !

...and perfect for Spring 2011, the Nadine Dress sports a bold geometric pattern that conjures images of sandy beaches and African safaris.  This knee-length, sheer piece has an elastic waist that holds a beautiful shape, and can be sinched with a nautical-inspired rope belt for added emphasis.  The Nadine will surely make a splash poolside, and certainly on the streets of Brooklyn.  Treat yourself to a bit of sunshine for the New Year!

Perfect to pair with tights and flats or heels, this is a gorgeous piece for the holiday season.

The "Catherine" is Back...

With all the bulky outerwear this season making us feel larger-than-life (and perhaps not in the good way), its nice to peel-off all the extra layers to reveal the shapely body underneath.
The "Catherine," a classic A.Cheng design, helps battle the bulk with an elegant, curve-friendly shape that is light and feminine, yet wholly appropriate for the winter months.
In classic black and vibrant plum, with duel front pockets and a chic boat neck, the Catherine ($275) is a winter wardrobe essential.

The details abound on this striking cross-body hobo: complete with a crimson lining and a removable leather tassel for an added touch.
