Currently Craving: Diesel Fa-Matic

What is it about Diesel jeans we love so much? The fit, the cut, the way the denim wears after we’ve worn our favorite pair for season after season after season…

AnnaLynne McCord knows what we’re talking about. She’s been spotted wearing the same Diesel Matic 8B3 jeans three times over.

Who needs shoes when you’ve got Diesel jeans?!

We love how she dressed up this casual look with a pair of nude pumps and neon bag.

The studded belt and black v-neck shirt complete the ripped rocker look.

Currently Craving: FOLLIS

FOLLIS, which is Latin for leather bag, was created in 2002 by designer Catherine Meyer. The collection consists of unique silhouettes, laced leather, and neutral colors. Choose from medium size cross-body bags, doctor bag satchels, and gorgeous metallic evening bags.

We weren’t surprised when we heard the fantastic news that FOLLIS won The Independent Handbag Designer Award for Best Handbag in Overall Style and Design. With partnerships with SAKS Fifth Avenue and Kate Spade, we can continue to see great things from this budding handbag brand.

The winning bag, “Laced Julia,” is pictured below and retails at approximately $372.50. With the messenger strap option it’s as if you’re buying two for the price of one. The nude color and shape are perfect for this summers shopping weekends!

The collection ranges in price from $87.50-$387.50. The Daphne, pictured below, is another one of our favorites from the collection.

Currently Craving: Metallic Mini

Last night, in a gummy bear, candy corn craze, we watched one of our all time favorite movies – Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion.

We love how the best friends make their own clothes and aren’t afraid to admit how “cute” they are – even if some of their outfits aren’t so “cute.” However, we are slightly obsessed with their reunion ensemble and find ourselves craving a metallic mini for this weekend’s festivities. Looking back on fashion was always a little bit more fun than looking forward.

Check out some of the hottest metallic minis from our editor picks. Shop through our boutique below. Shimmer!

Currently Craving: Opening Ceremony Studded Wedge

Typically we would pack florals, flats, and fedoras for our Memorial Day getaway. After drooling incessantly over these peep toe, studded, wedge booties, by Opening Ceremony, we decided to scour various designers to be sure we have an assortment for the long weekend.

Some of our favorites include Donna Karan’s ankle strap, suede wedges; Dolce Vita’s brown leather, buckle heavy, hidden platforms; and Givenchy’s anaconda embellished heels.

Please shop through our editor picks below for more studded options. Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

Currently Craving: Sweets Sans Savory

It’s hard to say “no” to an icing saturated cupcake or the bowl of M&Ms sitting conveniently on the corner of your co-worker’s desk.  We’ve found ways for you to indulge without packing on the pounds. FredFlare.com has some amazing products that resemble savory sweets.

The set of four mini cupcakes – reminiscent of the Crumbs Bakery delights – are actually lip gloss! The raspberry, cream, chocolate, and strawberry flavor filled pots will satisfy your sweetest urges.

For those of you who floss on a daily basis, you may recognize the cupcake covered canister.  We know floss removes plaque but does your Crest floss taste like a cupcake? Taste the sweetness of good dental hygiene!

We all have a candy stash – but can your candy stash your cash? This colorful dot wallet comes complete with a change purse, pink lining, and three card slots.

Burning calories or a batch of oatmeal cookies? This decadent timer looks sweet sitting on your kitchen stove.

Enjoy and have a delicious day.

Currently Craving: Rebecca Minkoff For Saks!

Handbag extraordinaire, Rebecca Minkoff, has been summoned by Saks Fifth Avenue to design an exclusive collection. What an honor!  With Minkoff’s previous collections sitting under $700, this new line will soar up to $2,000. In an interview with Style.com, the designer justified the cost, stating, “There’s real gold in the rose gold hardware, and I’m using these amazing, beautiful calfskins and upper-tier materials that a Prada would use.” Here is one of our favorite styles from the collection.

We’re looking forward to viewing this luxurious collection in person. The bags hit stores on the west coast at the end of April. Stay tuned to find out when the bags will debut in New York.

Looking to get your hands on a Minkoff now?  See and shop our editor picks below -

We’ve also been searching for the perfect “fanny pack.” The Kinies Waist Purse is a fashionable option for those of you who are itching for some ’80’s. You can also slip the Waist Purse over your shoulder which gives you two bags for just $35!
