Alexander Girard for Urban Outfitters!

September 28th // Comment Here

Even if you don’t know his name, you’ll recognize Alexander Girard’s iconic, folk-inspired prints right away. Girard was to textiles in the ‘60s, what Beyonce is to music today—a total superstar. His most famous prints were created during his reign as head textile designer for Herman Miller, and a handful of those patterns have been turned into limited edition pillows, curtains, and wall hangings for Urban Outfitters. Think of these items as affordable, functional art that was cool when it was created, is still just as cool now, and will no doubt be cool 20 years down the road.

Instant Obsession – Hollywood Institution for Target

July 29th // Comment Here

Leave it to one of my favorite mega-retailers to take the whole concept of “guest designers” and flip it on its head (again!). Instead of tapping a big-name designer for their latest accessories collaboration, Target plucked beloved-by-the-stars boutique owner Jaye Hersch. Just about every celeb in Hollywood frequents Hersch’s boutique, Hollywood Intuition, so I couldn’t be more excited—or obsessed—with the small, totally on-trend line of accessories she produced. I can picture Nicole Richie in these glasses and Jessica Szohr rocking this shoulder purse that doubles as a belt bag, right?

Instant Obsession – Socheec

July 21st // Comment Here

I absolutely love running across a particular brand that you just fall in love with. This week’s instant obsession is Socheec. What I love about their products is the colors — a lot of orange hues — coupled with that old-world look! One particular piece I really loved is their Moonstone ring. In addition to rings, they also carry bracelets and earrings — which are to die for!!

Here’s their Moonstone ring — isn’t it gorgeous?

Love,

Instant Obsession – Rachel Comey for Urban Outfitters

June 16th // 1 Comment

Rachel Comey shoes are among the most coveted items any indie-fashion follower owns. The collection gets that tricky artsy-meets-functional design just right. But sadly they can sometimes be a little hard to find. So imagine my surprise when out of the blue a small-but-amazing trio of shoes by Comey popped up on the widely accessible UrbanOutfitters.com. The collaboration, called Contributor by Rachel Comey, includes two versions of a city-chic sandal—one heeled, one flat—and a beachy Oxford with woven sides. Get them while they’re hot, because if sales of the regular collection are any indication these won’t last long.

Instant Obsession – ShopGoGirl.com!

May 26th // 3 Comments

I have a confession to make: I constantly break the rules of deodorant etiquette. Wait, wait–before you go assuming things–this doesn’t mean that I don’t wear deodorant; it simply means that I’m careless with how I apply it. No matter how hard I try, I can’t ever seem to keep those pesky deodorant stains off my clothing. I’ve tried numerous brands, from sprays to those that claim to go on “crystal-clear”, but I just can’t bear the thought of giving up my favorite brand, which works wonderfully at keeping me fresh ‘n’ clean, but (naturally) stains a hideous shade of chalky-white all over my beautiful, black clothing. Well, being the stubborn, online shop-a-holic that I am; I went on a quest to find a solution to my problem, and guess what–I found one! It’s called the Smudge-Sponge™, and it’s available through ShopGoGirl.com.

Pack of 4 Smudge-Sponge™ $13

Finally, someone came up with a great solution for removing deodorant stains without the use of water/detergents! The Smudge-Sponge™ simply wipes away deodorant and powder smudges. The thing that makes this product extra-great is the fact that it’s easily packable. I bought a few for Amber, threw one in my gym bag and one in my cosmetics bag (for those dressing room blunders). If you’re a deodorant etiquette abuser too, you’ll be as excited as I was with this product. I have more good news for you too! I was able to snag a “Hot Deal” on this product, which I want to share with you! From today until Sunday, May 31, get an extra 10% off your order at ShopGoGirl.com! Just enter the code MYFASHION at checkout.

I will forewarn you, however; the ShopGoGirl.com site is chock-full of travel-friendly goodies you’ll not want to live without, so come prepared to shop ;) I also picked up some LINT-ON-THE-GO-SHEETS!® (how convenient!) and CHIC™ double-sided apparel tape, which is so much easier than carrying around a needle and thread when you’re on-the-go. So, there you have it: ShopGoGirl.com, my “Instant Obsession” of the moment! Do you have an “Instant Obsession“? I’d love to hear all about it!

Love,
Loren
