New Year Hot Spot Style: Manuel Antonio National Park

Fashion | 30 December 2009

by

Beach. That is all you need to know about this New Year’s adventure.

But not just any beach. If I were to have my New Year’s way, I would head to the Manuel Antonio National Park in Costa Rica located south of Quepos on the Pacific Coast, 132 km from San José. Tours through the park are available, including a rain forest walk where you might be so lucky as to spy a sloth!

Coastal Manuel Antonio at night is pitch black, being lit only by the moon — perfect for some stargazing. Instead of the big count-down at midnight, I would suggest quietly bringing in the New Year with a few good friends or your sweetie on the sands.

With spring coming, this would be a perfect place to try out next season’s trends: the Pocket Change Necklace in Gold [sold out!], the Silk Arboretum Maxi Dress, and the Bamboo Poetic 04 Gray and Silver WhipStitched T Thong

New Year Hot Spot Style: Venice

Fashion | 29 December 2009

Ahh, Venezia! Que bella!

Every year, this city of bridges and islands gathers in the Palazzo di San Marco for one of the biggest gatherings of New Year’s kissers! The Palazzo di San Marco, being the biggest and most culturally relevant square in the city, is a great place to gather with your sweetie and snuggle up until the Campanile di San Marco, or bell tower, strikes midnight.

I would suggest making the effort to stay up to see the sun rise over the Adriatic Sea from the beach island of Lido, where the Auguri di Capodanno sulla spiaggia del Lido di Venezia takes place … aka jump into the freezing cold water a la Polar Bear Swim.

Venice is high fashion, and the Palazzo di San Marco has no heaters outside. When I was there last year, the stone ground was iced over, so make sure to watch your step and have some cute walking boots like the Bamboo Follie 04 Black Mid Calf Riding Boot in Vegan Leather [sold out!] (great for going over jeans!).

Add a little bit of sparkle with the Kismet Karma Dress  so you don’t have to wear any metal on your neck. Again, it will be cold, so the Emma Pillsbury Coat in Soft Pink is a great piece to keep toasty in, and attract the eye of any cute Italians walking by!


Pucker up, New Year’s is almost here!

They'll See Red and be Green with Envy

Fashion | 21 December 2009

For the girl with passion in her heart and a wardrobe so hot it sparks fire, red is definitely her color of choice.

I, personally, love a touch of red from time to time. This passion stirring shade never fails to be an attention getter, whether it’s worn as a lipstick, a statement belt or on your feet (which is especially fun).

That’s why I was head over heels (literally) for our newest footwear phenomena: the Mixx Tokyo 01 Red Kid Suede Studded Pradaesque Heel [sold out!]. This baby practically jumps right off the page with its ruby red faux suede exterior that is perfectly complemented by a rockin’ high heel and Prada-inspired studs for a little extra dazzle.

For all of you ladies who begged their parents for a pair of Dorothy’s ruby red slippers when you were little, these are your perfect, grown up girl version.

This heel will also work wonders for all those holiday parties. I can’t think of a better way to sip egg nog than to gather compliments about your festive footwear.

“Just call me Miss Clause,”  you can say with a wink.

Sooooo a few weeks back, DJ Mia Moretti picked out some shoes on Lulus.com, and they just so happened to be the Jeffrey Campbell Inches Black Ringed Unicorn Heel Bootie. (I know, it’s a tongue twister, but they’re cute all the same!) Mia wore these shoes out and about last week in New York City, and we found these pics.

Here, Mia is at the Paper’s Fifth Annual Nightlife Awards in LuLu*s shoes with the oh so fashionable Josh Madden!
