Can't get to a pool? Don't sweat it! Beat the summer heat and moisturize your skin with a glamorous (limited edition) Evian Brumisateur. Designed by famous fashion illustrator Stephane Manel, these cool canisters can keep you cool all summer long.
As a regular beach goer with an inconvenient aversion to salt water, I
can officially say that this little bottle is a life saver! Sure I might feel differently if I were dipping my toes in the warm waters of the Caribbean, but I'll take a pool over New York ocean water any
day! And, with lots of parks and no pool in site, a burst of cool mist
can be just the trick.
Try it out! Let me know what you think.

So you can't afford Jimmy Choo shoes, or a Botkier handbag... so what! Now there's even sexier, and of course, cheaper way to get in on the SATC madness.
HBO has teamed up with Cosabella lingerie to create a line inspired by the fabulous foursome. So go ahead, channel Carrie in a floral set or be a sex kitten (a la Samantha) in a racy lace number. Even Charlotte has a comfy cotton pajama set. While I adore Carrie, my lingerie personality is totally Miranda.This lace trim bra and hot shorts set is adorable and costs $118.
Just a small price to pay to be part of the biggest fashion phenomen.
Which Sex and the City star would you wear?

Ok, we all love our denim, but sometimes jeans just don't cut it! The problem is finding a pair of casual khakis (or blue, or gray, or even coral-colored pants) that look great and feel great too!
That said: I'm loving the new styles from Bonobos! They fit great and come in a ton of colors.
Plus the return policy is amazine! Say the Shamdaisies are just a little to Leprechan for you... send them back. Bonobos will take back any pant for any reason and cover the shipping costs! So go ahead... try out the Pink Panthers!
Does it take a real man to wear pink? What's the brightest color pants your husband owns?

It's finally sunny in NYC and while I'm addicted to warm weather, well everything except for the whole wearing a bikini part, I'm horrible about applying sunscreen.
I know, I know... good for health, and better for wrinkle prevention, but sometimes it's just too inconvenient.
Until now! The sun safety kit is perfect. The best part part: a bundle of splurge-worthy travel size samples. Translation: Just throw it in your purse and go!
But hurry, the kit (an $87 value) is just $25 and going fast the deal is up when supplies are gone or in June (whichever comes first). Still not convinced? 100% of net profits go to The Skin Cancer Foundation!
I'm heading to Sephora.com now to get my pack!!

Anyone looking for a pair of comfortable and stylish summer sandals? Well look no further!
I'm obsessed with these Newport-News T-straps! (Yes, I have all 4 colors).
But seriously, they are the best buy for a gal with a shoe fetish. Talk about getting bang for your buck. These stunning sandals are only $10 each!
What does this mean? No hiding the box in the back of the closet, or sneaking the shopping bag into the house. Even your husband will agree that these are totally worth it!
What do you think... Worth the "splurge"?

I've been a New Balance fan for years, (I mean, who doesn't have a pair of the basic gray 992's?) but they've recently upped the style factor in their oh-so-comfy shoes.
These two styles are especially unique:
The top style is seamless. (I know the white lines look like seams, but trust me, they're not) It's just a super artsy approach to basic black sneaks.
The bottom style is my favorite! All of the design details are supposed to mimic mens suits (notice the pinstripe lining and shoe laces) Seriously, does it get cuter than that?
Would your husband trade in his tennis shoes for a pair of these stylish sneakers?

So this awesome beauty tool isn't out yet, but trust me, I'll be the first one in line when it hits stores in May. One of my favorite cosmetic companies,Tarte, has teamed up with BriteSmile to make this revolutionary teeth whitener and lip gloss in one!
Can you say obsessed? Hey for me, the less stuff I have to toss in my purse the better.
What do you think? Worth getting rid of the white strips?

OK... I know this looks silly (maybe like undergarments hanging out to
dry), but It's actually a cool new invention: One I wish I had thought
of first.
I love the look of layered tops but hate the extra bulk from wearing two shirts! And now with the invention of the Winkee that problem is solved.
The Winkee is simply a piece of fabric that hooks on to your bra and keeps you covered whether your wearing a plunging V-neckline or a wrap dress that just won't stay shut!
Check out all the details on TheWinkee.com and let me know what you think!
Would you wear it?
