Shoes of the day - Wales by London Fog

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Must Haves


It's raining outside as we write this, which gives our search for pretty waterproof boots a real sense of urgency. When we found this mod-inspired pair by London Fog, we knew we had a winner. We love the grey patent leather, the mini-wedge heel (so easy to walk in!) and the generous length that will keep our pant legs dry. The cute button detail doesn't hurt either.

Dress of the day - Buttercup by Simple Silhouettes

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Must Haves


Sometimes a well-constructed but "simple" dress is all you need to glam it up. This design by Simple Silhouettes in cement grey satin is a timeless piece that you can make your own with a few accessories. Pair it with glittering jewelry - like a tennis bracelet and diamond studs - for an upscale look; or add pearls and a cardigan if you're looking for something more preppy. An interesting brooch or tying a scarf at the waist would dramatically alter the look - the possibilities are endless! Every closet needs a piece like this - and it doesn't have to be black to be versatile.

Tip of the day: They call me mellow yellow (and grey)

Filed under: Clothing, Style Tip of the Day


We have seen the yellow and gray combo around for some time now. The sunny hue is completely complimentary of the soft neutral and a perfect pick for those with a cool skin tone. Plus, it's a lot less harsh than its bumblebee side kick, black and yellow.

Try giving some of these mellow yellow looks a whirl.

Going grey can be great!

Filed under: Handbags, Accessories, Clothing, Shoes, Dresses, Cosmetics


In the 80s, did you have grey jazz shoes? Or are we showing our age? Maybe it's a little fashion nostalgia, but we're kinda into grey again.

This spring grey has been everywhere, from shoes to nails to dresses. We're loving the subtle and sophisticated ways the shade is being used, with creativity far beyond gym shorts and heathered wool sweaters. Grey is showing up in patent leather and organic cotton and everything in between.

When worn right, grey can be incredibly polished and flattering. Of course, some things are still better in color. We draw the line at grey hair -- you'll find us at the salon for regular root touch ups.

Check out the gallery for seven stylish grey selections.
