Pink Loves Major League Baseball


I'm sure I'm not the only one that was absolutely thrilled when Pink released their Collegiate Collection. Finally, not having to search all over to find some cute State clothes! As of March Victoria Secret has launched another co-branded merchandise collection with a Major League Baseball Collection. At least near college schools, they have some selection. Trying to find a cute Tigers t-shirt that didn't look like a cheap garage sale item took me down a dead end last summer. As of now, to the disappointment of my Michigan girls, there is not a Tigers line. They have 11 teams signed including Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Los Angels of Anaheim, Los Angeles Dodgers, Minnesota Twins, New York Mets, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, San Diego Padres, and St. Louis Cardinals. I am sure they will be expanding however, as it took some time to get all the colleges involved. Here is a look at their first line.


ASOS.COM





I was recommended to visit Asos The Online Fashion Store by a friend a couple weeks ago, and this site has a lot going on. It's based in the UK but allows you to get express shipping to the US for only $14. Prices are also pretty reasonable. There is a vast array of styles and options to choose from. I especially love the ability to view the models walk on a runway, which puts somewhat of an end to the age old mystery "what is this really going to look like". Another feature, that I found pretty sweet, is the ability to look up clothes by celebrity. I looked up two of my faves, Sarah Jessica Parker and Lauren Conrad, and found these two ensembles.

See Thru Soul

See Thru Soul is a brand that makes some really hip looking flares. I've found them at Von Maur and The Buckle, but you can find sites that sell them all over the web at some pretty good discounts. They are well made and well worth the wait...

Make Up For Ever

I tried this HD Microfinish Powder under one of the Sephora Rep's recommendation, and this stuff is crazy cool. The powder is really lightweight and silky. It sets your foundation and mattifies skin without changing your color. It is used in the film industry because it is so long lasting, and will even "waterproof" your makeup. After two weeks of using it, my verdict is it's pretty sweet.


Buxom Babe




Bare Escentuals has come out with Buxom Lash, a paraben-free, lash-volumizing mascara. The formula is extremely silky and never clumps or flakes. Formulated to separate while creating bigger, fuller lashes. I have tried many different mascaras, and can not come across any that have come close. It's also antioxidant-rich and formulated without those nasty sulfates, synthetic dyes, and synthetic fragrances that other formulas have. I would also give their Lashliner and Buxom Inside Eyeliner a try. You can find them all at Sephora.



Jean Minni

I absolutely love the Flat - Pleat Faux Jean skirt from Express. It's really soft and comfortable, and gives off an effortless, sexy look.

Fringe is in...



These suede Minnetonka Triple Fringe Boots have been favorites of celebrities like Lauren Conrad, Hillary Duff, and Miley Cyrus. They are super comfy and cute with 3 tiers of tonal fringe and finished with lacing around the outsole and a low profile rubber sole. Perfect for this time of year as they can be paired with jeans, skirts, or shorts. You can find them at Urban Outfitters in brown or black.

The Skirts Have It

Skirts and dresses have made a huge comback in the last couple years. And designers are becoming more creative then ever with their looks by adding lace, frills, ruffles, zippers; really anything goes. Most are pretty versatile so you can wear them during the day or at night like this cute little number called the Bloom Satin Skirt you can find at LuLus.com. I would say you can never have enough...
