Darlings, shift your gaze to the left to take in the beauty that is the haute House of Harlow 1960 Chelsea Cat Eye Sunglasses – the very same ones designed and donned by Fashion Star’s Nicole Richie; now, if you’ll take a peek to the right you will spot Triple Optic’s outstanding Oversized High Fashion Designer Inspired Bold Chic Cat Eye Sunglasses Cateyes.
While the Triple Optic offering sports slightly lighter shading on the lenses than the black as night lenses seen upon the charming Chelsea; for a mere $9.95, in comparison to the $138.00 required to snag their higher-end sister, they are the ideal compromise for the budget babe striving to look chic on the cheap!
What’s your stand, lovers…will you splurge, or save?
Fashionably yours!
Thanks to Nordstrom and Amazon for the pictures.

Straight Stylin'
Darlings, it was Joan Crawford who once said, “I think that the most important thing a woman can have – next to talent, of course – is her hairdresser.” Though I nearly wholeheartedly agree with Ms. Crawford regarding this sentiment, I must admit that the hairdresser, in my opinion, is the second most important thing a woman can have. The first, mind you, is an incredible hair straightener – and I feel that I have found the absolute best flat iron in the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Professional 100% Pure Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron.
Unlike many other hair styling tools on the market, the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Professional (conveniently available at the Rylees store for you UK dwellers) relies upon the new advanced technology of 100% Pure Tourmaline Ceramic Plates, which allows the user to swiftly sweep the plates through one’s hair in one magnificent slide, without pulling or catching – an advancement not seen in any other hair straightener at this time.
Even better, however, is the fact that the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Professional is a multifaceted weapon for your follicles, allowing you to toss out the other tools you turn to in order to tame your mane, and replace them with this single styler. How so, you ask? Aside from being a flat iron that delivers sleek, straight tresses, the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Professional acts as a curling iron, so you can create anything you dream up – from a flip or beachy waves to très chic curls!
Now only one question remains…what hairstyle will you create using your Karmin G3 Salon Pro Professional 100% Pure Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron? And, of course, which color will you select – Pink, Black, or White?
Fashionably yours!

Rebecca Minkoff ♥ mark Delight Bag Review
mark is my beauty go-to. My handbag is full of their Juice Gems and Glow Baby Glow Luxe Hook Up Lip Gloss; and I rarely leave the house without their Keep It Going Longwear Eyeliner & Shadow in Surreal adorning my eyes. Rebecca Minkoff is one of my designer obsessions. Since discovering her Mini Nikki Hobos and Mini MAC Clutches (not to mention the Studded Affair, Cory Coin Wallets, and Sweetie Mini Bag), no other handbag designer has had the ability to tear me away from my Minkoff devotion (as evident by the six Mini Nikki Hobos in constant rotation in my wardrobe). Obsession confessed, I will admit that prices can be a bit steep for the decadent designs RM rolls out; thus the reason I was positively thrilled to learn of the Rebecca Minkoff ♥ mark collaboration, which has brought the delicious Delight Bag (Retail Price: $60.00) into my life.
Like Jason Wu for Target, Versace for H&M, and Rory Beca for Forever 21 before her, Rebecca Minkoff has created the Delight Bag (Straight from Fashion Week!) specifically for mark girls that, in my opinion, combines the elements of three of her most phenomenal designs: the Affair (size), the Sweetie Mini (studs), and the Mini MAC (chain strap) – a conglomeration of chic that is essential for the fashion-forward girl on a budget!
FIRST THOUGHTS:
You never know what to expect with collabs, especially once you’ve had experience with a designer’s higher-priced products, but the Delight was one of the best I have ever encountered. From the moment I removed it from its packaging I had to note three things:
♥ The color is a very rich noir that is incredibly sleek and smooth to the touch. ♥
♥ Despite being constructed out of faux leather, it looks and feels real – right down to the soft, buttery texture. ♥
♥ As is a Rebecca Minkoff signature, the Delight features an interior Key Clip and 3-Pockets for easy organization (just like her originals).♥
POSITIVES:
♥ Lightweight. ♥
♥ Adjustable strap so you can wear it as a long shoulder bag, short shoulder bag, or crossbody. ♥
♥ Chain Strap + Stud Detailing + Buckle Detailing = Edgy Yet Sophisticated. ♥
♥ Interior Key Clip, 2-Slip Pockets, and 1 Zippered Pocket for Simple Organization and Access to your essentials. ♥
♥ Ultra-affordable price ($60.00) from one of fashion’s biggest names. ♥
FASHIONISTA VERDICT:
The Rebecca Minkoff Delight Bag is, like the mark company itself, a piece for the everygirl - meaning, whether you can afford the higher-priced Minkoff bags or not, this carryall will make a Delight-ful (sorry, had to do it!) addition to your handbag collection. But make sure to buy two…one for you, and one for the everygirl in your life (sister, BFF, you name it)!
♥ 5 / 5 Hearts ♥
What do you think of the Rebecca Minkoff ♥ mark Delight Bag?
