What Would Peggy Do?

What says cool? Peggy Lipton, that's what! She is one of our all time fashion inspirations. We love her and the way she has always seemed to make style look effortless. We mean that in a good way, of course.

You know how you can look back at some old photos of your self and say did I really think I was Alexis Carrington? Or, my makeup could have won first prize at a Halloween party! Or, MC Hammer pants...REALLY???!!! Well, we know the feeling and we're guessing that Miss Peggy Lipton doesn't share the same problem. The girl is timeless.

The moral of the story here is when deciding what you want to adorn your body with, follow this simple rule: Am I going to be happy ten years from now when I pull out an old photo and see myself wearing it? If that doesn't work for you, just do what we do. Would Peggy wear this?

Trends? Nooooo

Trend is not one of our favorite words because who has ever wanted to be thought of as trendy? Jumping on a major trend wagon is also not one of our favorite things. There is nothing wrong with adding a fresh accessory to your look, but "trending" head to toe is never a good idea.



Above is the new $80 trend for this Fall. Really?

We are all individuals and we believe that it's important to express yourself with style. It shares a little insight on who you are as an individual. Our best style advice to you is to not become trendy. Find ways of setting yourself apart from the rest. We know that this takes courage for some people because sometimes you don't always have faith in your style choices. But have faith! Go with your instincts and what makes you feel good. Don't make rules up for yourself. A lot of people do this. "I'm too short for that," or "My neck isn't long enough." It is really amazing actually, how many rules people make for themselves. Trust us, we've heard them all. It's time to free yourself of rules.

The way we design is by making things that are not trendy but instead, timeless. That way you can wear a piece for a while, put it away for a little bit and then rediscover that same piece by falling in love with it all over again. Isn't it fun when you get to go shopping in your own closet or jewelry box and get to find an old friend? We love this! It makes investing in an item you truly love priceless because you will enjoy it for years to come.

So, the message of the day is don't be trendy...Be yourSELF!

Kelly Cutrone Needs Another Hug From Amma ASAP!

We love Ms. Kelly Cutrone of Peoples Revolution and Kell On Earth! Even when she's mad. Nobody does mad better. This girl never minces her word. She's awesome! We had to share this video with you of Kelly on a rant after NOT receiving her wake up call at the Sheraton in Canada this morning.

We thought it was funny and ironic. Not funny ha ha because she wasn't woken as promised, because that can be a big bummer and very stressful. But because a few hours before this she had been meditating with Amma. If you don't know who Amma is, she is the most famous hugger in the world. She is a spiritual guru who travels the world giving out free hugs. People stand in very, very long lines for hours to receive a special hug from Amma.

So, here's the video and Ms. lovely Kelly, even you have to find the irony a little funny. After you make it to your destination on time, that is:)
