Shoe Hunter

Queen Bee — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 04:43:22 +0000

Sorry for all the shoe posts lately, but as I’ve mentioned, I’m on the hunt for a cute pair of strappy silver shoes for a bridesmaid outfit. You’d think this would be easy, but with my freakishly narrow feet, I can’t do those “dainty” little straps. My feet just slide right down until my toes are hanging over the edge! I need lots of straps to really hold my feet in place. Anyone else have that problem?

So, here are some of the shoes I’ve been looking at.

Ok, I’m just kidding with that pair (in case the bride to be is reading!). But they are definitely my favorite!

So…..Which pair would you choose?

Prom Outfits Under $50

I know I say this all the time, but you don’t need to spend a ton of money to be fabulous. Case in point: prom outfits under $50.

Teal is the hot color of the year and it looks so cute with these peacock earrings!

Jovani has an *amazing* selection of homecoming dresses. So amazing that it was tough to select just a few for this post!

Homecoming Heels

Queen Bee — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 11:12:36 +0000

Hurray for heels! Though personally, I only wear them for the pictures and then I change into flip flops. Regardless, they sure are cute and are an absolute must if you are going for a chic or formal look at Homecoming.

Every girl needs a pair of black heels and these are a-mazing!

From zappos.com

Granted, they are $930…But, there are heels out there for any budget.

I found these on sale for $80.

From zappos.com

And this pair is only $26!!

From lulus.com

These brown cuties are only $80.

From zappos.com

These leather heels would look hot with a punk rock tutu dress.

From zappos.com

This pair also has a cute zipper embellishment, but they are much more girly.

From zappos.com

But, no need to go black. If it suits your dress and your personality, go bold with colors like pair.

From zappos.com

Or these adorable retro shoes by Marc Jacobs.

From zappos.com

Are they not amazing? I love this pair too.

From zappos.com

And anything by Betsey is perfect in my book, including this pair of Betseyville shoes.

What color shoes will you be wearing to Homecoming this year?

Masquerade Ball

Queen Bee — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 07:27:21 +0000

How many of you strive to have the *best* outfit everywhere you go? Me too. But it can be a challenge to go bold without going overboard, especially when it comes to Homecoming and Prom. But, what do you think about this:

From successcreations.com

I’m absolutely in love with masquerade masks and the ones at Success Creations are amazing.

From successcreations.com

Aren’t they beautiful? And I love that there is one for every budget and style. This pink feather mask is only $15.

From successcreations.com

While this 14 karat gold mask is $120.

From successcreations.com

Or you can get couples masks for you and your date!

From successcreations.com

If you’ve got the creative bug, you can even make your own. Throw a party with your besties and you can all make your masks together. Imagine how cute your pictures will be!

From successcreations.com

You can find additional supplies like trim, sequins, and rhinestones at a local fabric or craft store.

From successcreations.com

If you are looking for a Halloween mask (it’s coming up next month!), Success Creations has come cute ones like this kitty cat.

From successcreations.com

As for me, I got the Catalina to wear for Halloween. I don’t know what I’m going to be…I just wanted the mask!

Dress: Karen Miller; Shoes: Steve Madden

What do you think of these masks? Bold enough to wear one to Homecoming or Prom?

Some of my fave stuff from Lookbook.nu this month:

I so wish I had hair as long as this!

And this is such a cute dress (love the way the lollipo is the same as the sunglasses!):

I love the belt in this one, and the military-style jacket on the right:

This skirt is so beautiful (love the ruffles):

This last one is way too gorgeous. It kind of reminds me of Alice In Wonderland:

J’adore La Mer

Queen Bee — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 13:03:35 +0000

I am so excited that La Mer Collections is sponsoring our contest this week because their watches are my fave! La Mer understands that a girl’s watch needs to be more than just functional, it needs to be fashionable.

La Mer’s line includes everything from bold to elegant, all while maintaining a chic and girly feel. Take this teal watch for example. It is simple yet sharp.

It’s cute in magenta too and it comes in other colors as well.

Even their more reserved watches are adorable. I love the Carpe Diem with its clear band. Plus 30% of the proceeds go to charity!

And then come the wrap watches. These are to die for! There are layered wraps:

Simple wraps:

And, my favorite, chain and charm wraps:

I have the Brown Vintage and absolutely adore it. The leather is so soft and the charms all fall perfectly into place. It is just perfect: chic, girly, and functional. Who could ask for anything more?

What do you think of La Mer’s watches?
