Motives® by Loren Ridinger featured on Elle.com

Wanted to share a few new exciting things with everyone! Motives® by Loren Ridinger was just featured on the homepage on Elle.com! Click here to read this article! This was a very exciting interview, because it allowed me the opportunity to explain my reasoning behind creating Motives®…”so that women can look and feel their best, therefore promoting a healthier lifestyle.” It is all about beautifying oneself as a whole; through both inner and outer beauty!

In a related note, after January 1, 2009, 20% of all proceeds from initial purchases of Motives® gel eyeliners and mineral lipsticks from motivescosmetics.com will go towards the Jennifer Lopez Foundation, a foundation that was established to help women and children receive proper healthcare.

“Feel good” about yourself with Motives® by Loren Ridinger and the Jennifer Lopez Foundation, knowing that you are helping to improve the well-being of women and children everywhere!

Lots of love,
Loren

Fashionably Shocking? You be the judge!

If there is one thing that I learned from Fashion Week, it is that fashion is about being daring. Daring can mean wearing a bright color in the fall or as in the case of Aminaka Wilmont’s designs, wearing shoes that thread the line between comfortable and fashionable.

Over on PerezHilton.com, Hollywood’s ‘gossip gangster’ found these shocking shoes that will be part of Aminaka Wilmont’s upcoming Spring/Summer 2009 collection.













Love it’ or Leave it’? Leave a comment below!

I'd say...different, but I love it!' Such a unique style!

Perez, thanks for this gem!

Hot Deals – Saks Fifth Avenue

Plaid is one of those designs that at times is difficult to wear. When the word “plaid” is mentioned, I envision school uniforms, lumberjacks and styles found in Europe. Diane von Furstenberg took plaid to a new level though when she created the Glasgow blouse.

This particular top is available at Saks Fifth Avenue. It looks great with nearly any shade of brown, even a burnt sierra color. In addition, you can wear this particular top with a pair of skinny jeans and heels and accessorize it with a white bangle bracelet (perhaps from Amrita Singh).

Visit Saks Fifth Avenue from your MarketAmerica.com web portal and
search keyword: Glasgow blouse!

Love,
Loren

EyeBuyDirect.com

EyeBuyDirect.com



As we move into the fall, changing your style up isn’t always just about having the latest and greatest outfit. Instead, it is about putting together a unique outfit with the aid of shoes, a bag, belt and even new eyewear.

Just because you don’t wear glasses doesn’t mean you cannot incorporate a pair into your wardrobe. Glasses help accessorize your look in more way’s than one. They are great for adding a certain level of professionalism during a business meeting. At the same time, they can also help to accentuate your face, not to mention, really pull together your outfit.

EyeBuyDirect.com is just one of thousands of Market America partner stores. Right now, they are offering 10% off on all products using coupon code: AUTUMNSALE.

Love,
Loren

New York Fashion Week: Diane von Furstenberg

New York Fashion Week


In addition to shopping with Elizabeth Weber over the weekend, I spent some time at New York Fashion Week and had the opportunity to see new fashions from designer Diane von Furstenberg that will be available Spring/Summer 2009. This was a phenomenal experience, as I also got to spend some time catching up with friends, Jennifer Lopez and Eva Longoria as well. Below are a few photos from the event. Be on the lookout for these great fashions hitting shelves soon!

Girls Just Want to Have Fun!

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven’t written in a few days. I’ve been in New York this past weekend, with my good friend, Elizabeth Weber. While Elizabeth came to New York for some down time, needless to say, we didn’t relax but engaged in some retail therapy and shopped until we dropped!

Elizabeth Weber








We spent a great deal of time trying on outfits by designer, Diane von Furstenberg, who was in town for New York Fashion week. Diane von Furstenberg is a famed designed who has created such classics as the wrap dress. What is great about her outfits is that they aren’t only available at exclusive boutiques. Instead, you can also find her outfits at Saks Fifth Avenue, a Market America partner store!

Saks Fifth Avenue




Obi-belt  tanner wagner








In particular, we liked the Obi-Belt Wool dress for $395. This is a great dress for the Fall and is available from Saks!

Search keyword: obi belt on Saks.com

Two other dresses that we both loved were the Tanner Dress (third from the left for $465) and the Wagner Lace Dress (available for $385).

While the Tanner Dress is more sophisticated, the Wagner Lace Dress is edgier.

Search keyword: tanner or search keyword: wagner lace to find these great dresses, as well as many others in all different styles and colors!

I would love to hear what you think about these dresses, so please send me some comments on which one's you like best!

Love,
Loren
