Lloyd Boston "The Style Guy" Dishes on His New Show "Closet Cases"

Filed under: Interviews

lloyd bostonWe recently had the pleasure of talking to Lloyd Boston -- who you probably know best from his countless appearances on shows like Oprah, as a Style Network host or as the Jones New York "Style Guy" -- about his new show Closet Cases. But don't think for a minute it is your typical reality makeover show. Not even close. Lloyd promises that it's "a fresh concept ... a double makeover;" one for the "closet case" and another for their actual closet. He also dishes countless tips on how you can "find a style that works" among the clothing you already have and not spend a dime doing it. How much fun is that?

Loving the Sartorialist in Paris


We are obsessed with the Sartorialist! His take on fashion is unique, his photographs are exquisite, and the discussion amongst the fashion minded on his blog is fascinating. And we are especially fans of some of the pictures he took while in the fashion capital of the world. Because we all know, nobody does Springtime like they do in gay Paris.

Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Daily Obsession


From Cameron Diaz to Fergie to Nicole Richie, celebrities know that the best way to steal the limelight on the red carpet is with this season's hottest style -- brightly colored, boldly patterned dresses.

Seriously, if prints are good enough for James Bond's girlfriend, they're good enough for us. Ever since we saw Daniel Craig's long term girlfriend, Satsuki Mitchell, in her stunning spring flower inspired dress we have been lusting after that style!

You can Megan Fox's look for around $50! Here is how:

- Blouse, Forever 21 $19.80
- Black bra, Simply Vera by Vera Wang $9.80

Zac Posen designs for Target

Filed under: Stores We Love, Style in the News, Steals and Deals

zac posenWell this hardly seems fair! We (USA) get a Target collection from Milla Jovovich and they (Australia) get a collection from Zac Posen. No offense Milla but if I were given a choice I would take Zac, sorry.

Everyone's favorite young designer, Zac Posen will debut his red carpet looks to Target on April 3rd in Australia. One piece in his collection that many people are excited about is the white gown Grey's Anatomy's Katherine Heigl wore at the Emmy Awards. The dress will retail at $299.99, which may sound high but can you imagine what the original couture gown costs? Yeah, under $300 is sounding more like a deal isn't it! The Heigl dress will be the most expensive piece in the collection and only 50 will be made. The rest of the collection won't be so expensive, prices will start at $49.99 (for a belt).

I for one am excited to see the collection even though I think Target is out of their ever loving minds for selling $300 dresses and $50 belts -- don't care who designed it this is Target please give me a real deal.

Splurge or Save: Cashmere Mafia lingerie

Filed under: Swimwear and Lingerie

Cashmere Mafia LingerieI love how television characters always go to bed in some piece of fabulous lingerie. I am lucky if I take off last night's clothes before heading into the sack.

In this scene from ABC's Cashmere Mafia, Mia Mason (Lucy Liu) is wearing a gorgeous purple silk chemise after an unplanned romp with her ex. Many people have inquired about where to find this sexy little chemise without breaking the bank. I have two options, one is splurge worthy and one is a deal too good to pass up:

Splurge! For $160 you can look just like Mia in this chemise by La Petite Coquette, which is almost identical to the one on Cashmere Mafia. The only difference is the color of the straps and the purple seems to be a half a shade lighter than this one.

Save! For a mere $24.50 you can get this purple slip from Victoria's Secret. You get the same look for a fraction of the price, the only thing you will miss is the black lace on the bottom. Not a bad sacrifice for something so sexy.

Look for Less: Serena's preppy style

Filed under: Style in the News, Steals and Deals

gossip girl serenaEveryone wants the Gossip Girl look but let's face it, the looks from the show can get expensive. The girls on the show are rich prep school students who have never uttered the word "budget." I will help you get Serena's schoolgirl look for less than the price of her designer handbag.
Grand total- $164.19

Remember you can also find this look by hitting your local school uniform supply store, vintage shops, and you can even borrow your dad's necktie to achieve this look for less.
