Holiday Gift Guide – 2013 Diva Edition

November 25, 2013 by robincharmagne 2 Comments

Hi Pretties,
This is one of my favorite weeks of the year! Why? Thanksgiving, such an easy holiday, hanging out with the family, good eating and of course Black Friday shopping. It’s going to be a great week! I’m debuting my first Holiday Gift Guide – the Diva Edition. Everybody knows a diva, you know the chick that has everything but wants everything too. These are some divalicious gifts in a range of price points.

1//Taking a cue from Scandal fashion, a diva rocks Opera Gloves in Italian leather from Mark and Graham – $199
2//Always on the go, a diva grabs her rollerball perfume from Coach – $25
3//A diva carries a stylish clutch to hold all her goodies from Gigi New York – $195
4//Not just a boyfriend watch for a diva, but a ceramic boyfriend watch in powder blue from Isaac Mizrahi – $119
5//Fashion art to adorn the walls of a diva’s abode from The Prints World – $10.99
6//A diva wears affordable fashion, like a faux leather skater skirt from Boohoo – $30
7//Beats? Uh no the diva sports leather wrapped headphones with touch of bling from Frends – $149
8//No styrofoam cups here, a diva’s mug is monogrammed in a beautiful geometric from C.Wonder – $10
9//A diva does hoop earrings right with these trendy dogeared earrings from Bloomingdales – $68

This is a wide range of gifts for the Diva in your life from as little as $10 to as much as $199, so you won’t break the bank. My favorite diva gift has to be the opera gloves, in a bold color like magenta or orange.

What’s your favorite diva gift?

Friday Faves 20

Hey pretties!
Three Words for ya’ – three – day – weekend! I love time off and plan to make the most of the Labor Day Weekend! It’s Friday Faves – Calf Hair Edition, enjoy!

I’m obsessed with calf hair, so luxurious! It’s a strong fabric but you can try it out as an accessory like a bracelet or gloves. If you’re really feeling bold, try calf hair in a dress or jacket!

Flat//Clutch//Belt//Sweatshirt//Bonanza Theme

Note: The calf hair items featured in this post are made from the skin of a cow but can also be purchased in faux or man-made.

Have a safe and happy holiday!

Mini-Series – 3 Essentials for a Beach Vacation

July 11, 2013 by robincharmagne

Hello there pretty ones,
Wow, it’s Thursday already, aren’t you glad? I mentioned in a previous post that I was preparing for vacation in a few weeks so today drum roll please, I’m starting a mini-series of things every beach bum needs for a few lazy days chillaxin’! First up – the Tote Bag.

Clockwise from the top:
Red Raffia – Tory Burch – $275//Beach Bag – Dooney and Bourke – $198//Beach Baubles – Le Jou Jou – $35//Anchors Away – Vera Bradley – $49//Pretty Pom Poms – Mar y Sol – $108//Take Me to the Beach – Wildfox Couture – $15//Simple Stripes – Black.Co.UK – $33//She Sells Seashells – Yoox – $69//Grommets Galore – 2b Stores – $25//

Tote bags are true fashion accessories and come in a variety of fabrics such as canvas, leather, and plastic. Lots of options beyond the traditional straw bag. It’s essential for carrying all your goodies – phone, tablet, books/magazines, lip balm, sunscreen, water bottle, and of course your beach towel. Choose a tote bag with shoulder straps so it’s easier to carry across a sandy beach. Now if you want to get super cute, match your tote bag to your swimsuit and cover-up! Can you say beach babe! Yep you still wanna be pretty on the beach. My pick is a tote in two major trends, black and white and floral. It’s a big bag with shoulder straps and matches my swimsuit!

Have you picked a fashionable tote bag? Be sure to stop by next Thursday for part two of the mini-series – Hats!

Short Story

June 24, 2013 by robincharmagne Leave a Comment

Hi there pretty ones,
I sure hope y’all enjoyed your weekend! I mentioned I worked a bit on Saturday which was cool and chilled the rest of the weekend. The weather was really nice here and noticed a lot of ladies sporting shorts. Now I don’t think that shorts have an age limit. If they make you feel pretty, rock on! But, here are some tips to wear them well:

-Decide what length you want to wear, too short and you’re showing your goodies, too long might be less flattering. Consider the inseam – of say between 7 or 8 inches which hits about about mid thigh.

-Consider a structured fabric that looks more fitted. The more billowy the shorts, the bigger you look.

-Keep your top out rather than tucked in(OK with a jacket or cardi).

-Daisy Dukes? Yep denim can work but keep em’ neat, with a hem or a cuff.

-High heels and shorts are fine, but better for a night out.

Are you wearing shorts this season?

1 – Giorgio Armani 2 – Marni 3 – Nanette Lepore 4 – Diane von Furstenberg
5 – Nanette Lepore
