My Summer Want List

Last year I created a list of "wants" to add to my summer wardrobe in an article I shared with you curvy divas, My Summer Wish List!  Unfortunately two of the photographs are no longer there. However I am happy to report I got the nude shoes I wanted!

There are several more fashion wants on my list!  I have pinned on my Pinterest board,  Want 2013, so far, only a few of the fashion items I want to own for this year, not just for Summer!


A pair of leather leggings! Yes, it's leather or perhaps pleather, if they're not real, but look good enough to be real!  Mind you, it is hot in Florida, however, I sit inside in the AC all day...then again, they won't be a wear-to-work item! Who cares....I want them!

These from KOOVS are really great!

I've been lusting after chambray shirts, jeans vest, jeans dress; I finally have the jeans dress!  However, the shirt, and the vest, not yet!  I like this chambray shirt featured with this Ping skirt, found on anthropologie.com.

Love this look! Ping embroidered skirt



I used to wear espadrilles so much, they were my go-to footwear!  That was several years ago!   I do still love the look of espadrilles and hope to add a pair to my wardrobe!

Tory Burch Beacher Espadrilles Flats - sold out at shopbop.com!




Last but not least, I want a pair of gold filigree earrings!  Preferably the real thing, but I would rock a gold-plated pair just the same!

Check these out:
These are at the Hermitage Museum, as found at theancientworld http://theancientworld.tumblr.com/page/5


I am going to enjoy tracking these "wants" down!  Do you have any fashion wants?  Do share!

Backstage at OIFW Model Casting Call

On Saturday, yesterday in fact, I had the pleasure of attending a casting call for models , an event organized and hosted by Fierce Entertainment Management for their upcoming Orlando International Fashion Week, November  2-8, 2014 . Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided.   Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little  tête-à-tête   with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4,  beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of!   ...

Window Shopping Part Deux - What I Chose

As you know from my last article , I went shopping for swimsuit with my teen Mandi and ended up doing the same for myself. After all, I was in need of a new bathing suit. My last purchase for one was from Target eight years ago! And also during that time, I was the lucky recipient of two new suits from my BSFFL (Best Sister Friend For Life) who visited from Europe! So Those have lasted quite a long time!

Shoes, Fabulous Shoes!

There's nothing like a great pair of shoes that finishes an outfit.  You can have on the most darling outfit, but if you don't have the right shoes to go with it, well, somehow you end up feeling like, "Meh", to quote the perfect noncommittal, blah expression! Men of the world, there's one thing you must know, shoes makes the outfit, that's why we women have a variety of  them! In  my quest for nude-colored shoes this season, here are two looks I love from Elle.com "Best Spring Heels" feature. Suede wide-strap wedges from the Gap - $89.99 [Mark  Platt photo] You can never go wrong with Platforms!  If you love having a high heel without the stilts, wedges are the way to go! Paulina Cork Sandal heels from Bebe - $98.00 [Mark Platt photo] Although the linked article is from last year, the color and style are pretty on point for today's look!  The height of the heel is balanced by the platform at the base of the shoe.  Take ...
