Hello, lovies! Hope you have been enjoying your weekend. To my East Coasters, please hang in there and continue to stay safe through the hurricane. You are in our prayers. Just wanted to let you all know that this week, I will be making an announcement about very exciting news involving both Chictopia and American Apparel. I can’t wait to [...]

Another Friday, another caftan! I usually wear flat, open toe sandals with them unless I’m wearing a really long, floor sweeping piece. However, I switched things up a bit and wore it with 70s, suede platforms that has cute little bows on top. I actually think the sleeves are the best part of this caftan. It has really bell sleeves [...]

Most of the 2012 resort collections feature an explosion of bright colors that we love. Roberto Cavalli’s Resort line was no exception. Inspired by the sixties, this collection had us at the head scarves, hand bags and the bright florals. We especially love the Italian designer’s spin on the tuxedo pant this season. It’s fun and a little laid back. [...]

With each outfit that [...]

Her bridal collection, which can be viewed here, features just about everything to prepare a bride for her wedding day. However it was her beautiful line of headdresses that caught our attention, because quite frankly, one doesn’t have to be a bride to rock [...]

I think I’m stretching myself too thin with work & projects lately. Haven’t had time to really enjoy the summer and it’s almost back to school for the kids. I hope I can sneak in a weekend of resting, which includes no blog updates, checking emails, twitter or facebook. How’s your summer going? Any fun vacations or activities? Please share [...]

I came across this video and had to post it to share with my readers. If only we could all have nice and thoughtful things to say about one another on a daily basis, life will be so much better. The lectern below was placed in public spaces around New York and then left alone. This project was produced by [...]

At only 16 years old, Herieth Paul has been compared to the likes of Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss and Grace Jones. She is currently one of the hottest ethnic models in the fashion industry. There are so many reasons to love this Elle magazine spread featuring the Tanzanian-born model. From her sporty boy-short afro to the spectacular furs that are [...]
