sexy secretary Tea Top & Crumpets Skirt by indie designer Sarah Seven at Etsy

We stumbled across this black wool gabardine pencil skirt and chiffon tea top set on Etsy and instantly fell in love with the sexy secretary look. Both pieces are custom order garments, handmade by Portland Oregon based indie designer Sarah Seven especially to fit your own measurements, which means they're sure to hug all the right curves. Use a classic blazer to cover it up at work for an easy day to night transition.

They just don't make shoes like they used to. Unless, of course, you order a pair of handcrafted, custom made shoes, like these amazing 1930s inspired derbies. The shoes are made to fit your personal foot measurements and tracings, and since they're custom made just for you they can be modified with different options such as other colors or toe shapes. More custom shoe styles are also available.

$500 from zerkahloostrah

Tip of the day: My Cover Girl

Posted Jun 23rd 2008 at 4:35PM by Boydie Beener

Filed under: Cosmetics, Style Tip of the Day

For years we've been choosing makeup shades that we think look good. Until My Covergirl came along. By using the interactive website and plugging in hair color, eye color, and skin tone, we got a personalized list of Cover Girl products. Being a little bit wary of the "perfect" match, we order some of the suggestions that the Beauty Consultant made. Low and behold each color transformed us into a natural beauty. We looked like ourselves – only better. Finally! Now our favorite and tip folders are full as is our Covergirl.com shopping cart.
