Like so many others, we've been impressed by Michelle Obama's polished, classic and accessible fashion style. Phillip Bloch is also a huge fan, so much so that he and Forest Whitaker's wife devised a special nickname for her: "Blackie O."

Though we're a little unsure of the hair do (is she looking like she has a little case of the Sharon Stone crazies to you too?), we can wholly say we are committed to this lacy but not racy Caroline Herrera number that Renee has on. She kept her David Yurman accessories to a minimum to really allow the dress to take center stage. Absolutely on trend, age appropriate and dazzling daaaahling.

We also had to mention that we just can't get enough of Renee's poses. You can totally tell she practices in the mirror! But hell, practice makes perfect and we can vouch that Renee is pretty close to perfection!

• Carolina Herrera dress, Sorry, this one was specially made for Renee! Call the store to special order.

You know Felix Ray from Sex in the City, and you've seen Jennifer Lopez and Paris Hilton carrying bags with the signature bow.

Usually you have to go to Kitson, Henri Bendel, or Saks and pay $200 or more for a Felix Ray bag. But you can pick up this pretty Small Metal Mesh Bow clutch for a mere $36 at the "Rolls Royce of all garage sales."

It gets better! The proceeds go to benefit the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. So you're not shopping, you're donating!

This wonderous sale, dubbed Super Saturday 11 will be held in Walter Mill, NY on Saturday, July 26th. If you're not local to the area, you're still in luck, because they're partnering with QVC and QVC.com to make this bag, as well as select items from over 200 designers, available to the rest of us.

The other designers include Donna Karan, Carolina Herrera, Michael Kors, and Calvin Klein. At QVC and QVC.com you'll find hot designers like ADAM Adam Lippes, alice+olivia, and Theory.

Got your heart set on that Felix Ray bag? Here's a shopping tip: the item # on QVC is: #S4061. Happy donating!

You could go to that New Year's Eve Cocktail Party in one of the many Little Black Dresses lining your closet and blend right in with everyone else in their LBDs, strappy black sandals, carrying black beaded clutches.

Or you can put on Carolina Herrera's absolutely deliciously gorgeous "Faille" dress in a vivid green called "clover," slip into a pair of skyhigh gold stiletto-heeled sandals, and forget the purse because thi dress has oh-so-functional (but not really) side pockets with button tabs, and be the belle of the ball.

You decide.

The Faille dress has a flattering scoop neckline, modest tabbed shoulder straps, and crisscross box pleats on side. Since the dress is 100% polyester, you won't feel too horrible when you spill a little Champagne on it at midnight.

Then again, you might feel horrible because the dress is $2,590 at Neiman Marcus.
