CURRENT OBSESSION – PINTEREST
I needed a place to organize all of the graphics, words, clothing, and inspiration that I found on the Internet… Enter: Pinterest. An amazing concept that allows you to “pin” any image from any website onto your own Inspiration Boards and you can look to them at any time {with a link back to their original source for reference}. I am on it daily… totally obsessed. And, if I know you {and I think I have a handle on your fabulous self by now}, you will be obsessed, too.

CURRENT OBSESSION – CHIC ORGANIZATION TOOLS
I am an organization nut… however, I like everything that is used in the organization process to be just as fabulous as the things that they are being used to organized {vintage dresses, one-of-a-kind shoes, piles of my favorite photos, an endless collection of makeup, etc.}. Take a cue from the things below {I just purchased 1 and 4 for my office… yes, I want a closet in my office space… it’s inspiring!} and keep all of your wonderful belongings neatly and perfectly preserved… in style.

CURRENT OBSESSION – BADGLEY MISCHKA
Badgley Mischka has always been one of my greatest fashion loves. To give you an idea of the Badgley Mischka style think: feminine, intricate, lace, classic, and statement accents. With everything from Swarovski encrusted clutches to Oscar-worthy gowns {numerous Badgley Mischka gowns have made their way down the red carpet at the Academy Awards, expertly wrapped around the figure of one starlet or another… Kate Winslet, Helen Mirren, Queen Latifah…} there is something for everyone. My own Badgley Mischka experience was absolutely fabulous… After a long day of shopping, dining, and a cocktail {or two} on Rodeo Drive, we were about to call it a day… and there it was: Badgley Mischka’s new Rodeo Drive flagship store {it opened this Spring}. I told myself I would only peek in the window… just a teensy-tiny peek couldn’t hurt. The gorgeous curves and attention to detail of the dress draping the mannequin in the window basically demanded that I set foot into the store. I wandered around captivated by the gauzy fabrics and cinched waistlines. One of the saleswomen, Christina, must have noticed my shopping daze and she took me under her wing {and I had one of the loveliest shopping experiences under her guidance… be sure to stop by this store… the women who work there are kind, gracious, and phenomenal shopping companions}. She led me over to a dress… cream and black… conservative and yet snugly suggestive… and just my size. Once the zipper was pulled all the way up my back, I knew the dress was mine. I left triumphant, Badgley Mischka bag in hand {with the treasure of a dress I had found tucked safely inside}.

CURRENT OBSESSION – ALEXANDER MCQUEEN
This isn’t exactly a current obsession… it’s more like a life-long mental fling {where I will wander off to have a bit of a rendezvous with another designer and then… bam!… I find myself hopelessly in love with all things McQueen yet again}… Maybe it’s the bold use of animal print. Or color. Or snakeskin. Or skulls. Or the color black. Or the unapologetically large golden accents that seem to adorn everything. Maybe it’s just the fact that all things McQueen are f.a.b.u.l.o.u.s. It takes a woman who is comfortable with the spotlight to wear something created by such a confident design house… wallflowers need not purchase these wares. Feminine and strong. Bold and yet somehow work-appropriate. And very distinct. What a love affair.
