Mad Men Modern Day Paper Dolls

Try your hand at Mad Men Yourself...It's like paper dolls for the new millennium. Here's what I came up with:

The show's styling highlights the best of 60's fashion...I'm counting the days until the next season's premier on August 16th.

Thanks to Fashionista for the find!

Friday Fashion: More Resort 2010 Collections

Alberta Ferretti


I thought this collection was worth sharing. I admire the designer's use of color combined with the neutrality of khaki. The nipped in waist with subtle pleating and a bareshouldered top is something I would like to work into my wardrobe. Um...maybe after some posture-improving yoga.

Basso and Brooke


This designer's use of color in patterns are so fluid and textured...it adds so much dimension to each of these looks. All are so head-turningly beautiful.

Renegade Craft Faire SF: One More Preview

Just four short days until Renegade Craft Faire San Francisco. Here is one more artist preview to lure you to Fort Mason this weekend.

Versa Jewelry


Love these cuffs. They are a little hard and a little soft. A great counterpoint for a simple outfit of jeans and a white tee. Perfect for a prepster like me who grew up with a fantasy of jumping on stage with her brother's punk-rock band.
