  Alison Lewis (the creative fashion geek brain behind I Heart Switch blog) has a ridiculously great tutorial on how to create Rodarte style glowing heels. I consider this to be the adult / sexy version of those little kid sneakers that light up every time they take a step.  The ones that I have [...]

With St. Pat's Day coming up this month, green has been on the brain.  Actually, green is always on the brain – I love the color.  Poison green, emerald green, muted nature-y green – such a wide palette range that I love to see people in.  It's so alive and vibrant. Fancy peacock fascinator from [...]

   The Food network has this great cupcake costume 'recipe' with spray painted foam hair curlers as sprinkles and batting-stuffed fleece for puffy icings.  Cheap, easy and uber-cute.   I've seen some sweet cupcake tights and leggings, so I could see just putting a jean skirt under it and adding a whole new cupcake-inspired touch [...]

Houston is a really great city.  We’ve got amazing food, fun random things to do, fantastic career opportunities and passionate, amazing people (*ahem*: Mo-Mo-Monica, Tasty Tiff and DJ Jaymac).  But sometimes there just feels like there’s something missing and that’s where Houston Dr. Sketchy comes in.  A divine combo of life drawing class, performance art, [...]

Does anyone else have an unhealthy obsession with The Sartorialist blog?  It’s the handiwork of prêt-à-porter devotee Scott Schumann, formerly of Berdorf Goodman, Valentinos and a host of other amazing names in the fashion world.  Today he spends much of his time wrangling his daughter, writing his regular GQ page and traveling the world documenting [...]
