Get The Party Started: The Arm Party

I’ve always loved stacking bracelets, especially with my Bvlgari watch I never take off, but now that the Man Repeller has coined the phrase “arm party” my bracelet stacking has gone to another level.

I personally like to mix it up with wrap bracelets, skinny bangles and beaded bracelets. There are so many options though…the possibilities are endless! So I picked my favorite bracelets that you can mix and match for the perfect arm party.

Velvet Obsessions For Fall 2011

Velvet has been a trend that has stayed the last few Fall seasons. It’s never been a favorite of mine, but after my Topshop leggings purchase this past weekend, I’ve decided to reconsider.

Check out my velvet obsessions for Fall 2011…

And as George Costanza would say…”I would drape myself in velvet if it were socially acceptable.” And if you’re not a Seinfeld fan, then I’ll leave you with a moment of confusion at the end of this blog post. Have a great weekend!

Chi City Closet: Louis Vuitton Lockit Clutch

Ever since I saw the Louis Vuitton Lockit Clutch on the Fall 2011 runway, I knew I had to have this piece.

I was disappointed when I found out this was not available online and there was an immediate waitlist. Whenever I see a runway piece I can’t stop thinking about, I do whatever I can to get it. I was wait listed at several Louis Vuitton stores and never got a call. After visiting my parents in the burbs last weekend my mom told me she had a surprise for me and the first thing I noticed was a Louis Vuitton box. Clearly my runway stalking has rubbed off on my mom…

I am now the proud owner of the Louis Vuitton Fall ’11 Lockit clutch! This is by far one of the coolest bags I own. I haven’t worn this out yet (so here’s your sneak peak!) but I cannot wait to wear it.
