$84.00 Lululemon Pants.....I don't think so!

So I totally understand everyone's love for the Lululemon Yoga Pant they feel amazing however I totally question the company's ethics when it comes to sizing. The biggest size any of their workout pants are available is a 12 when the average women's size is a 14, Ummmmm HELLO! So I recently was shopping in the mall and was at Smart Set. They make these amazing Muv pants and they are exactly like lululemon ones and better yet . . . cheaper!!!!
$32.00 - I nearly died. They fit perfectly and feel amazing. To bad lululemon, you probably could have earned my $84.00 if you made some pants bigger than a 12.
I highly highly recommend these workout pants, you must give them a try!

Monday Dream Item

Happy Monday everyone. It's time for our weekly dream item and I cannot wait to share with you what I've found this week. These Kama Draped Booties by Jean Michel Cazabat are amazing. I totally heart the drapping, the open toe, great lil heel - they are bananas. Of course they could'nt be a dream item without the hefty price tage, these babies retail for $695.00

Sweater Weather

Fall is fast approaching (even though here it seems like we've hardly had summer) and that means sweater season! I was browsing through Victoria Secret.com and here are my faves and very high on my fall must have list!

XOXO Gossip Girl

I cannot even begin to tell you "upper east siders" how excited I am for the Season Premiere of Gossip Girl on September 14th. I cannot wait to see what happens, it is by far my favourite show, not only for the racy storyline but the FASHION!

XOXO GOSSIP GIRL!

Monday Dream Item

Hello Bloggers, its Monday and on my blog Monday's are dream days! So this week I have chosen an amazing handbage by Fendi! It's the Fendi Violet sequined sating spy small tote. I know some of your are thinking for that much $$ it should probably be a more classic colour in order to get maximum use out of the bag but the violet is soo pretty and irridescent it can be rocked with any outfit!



Now although I am "loving" this Fendi bag, it will definetly remain a dream item for me with a price tag of $2,020.00.
Happy Monday, Happy Shopping!

Fendi Violet sequined satin spy small tote available at www.bluefly.com.

Facebook - Alanna's take on it!

I can't even describe how "annoyed" I get with facebook. I have quite a few "Frequent updaters" as I like to refer to them as. By frequent update I mean this:
_________ is off to work
_________ is having an apple
_________ in a Meeting
_________ having a java

and this goes on and on and on all day!
Let's face it I think if you need to tell everyone what your doing every minute of the day your definetly looking for some attention and getting it on facebook is never a good idea!

My other facebook pet peeve is all the quiz's that everyone takes and HAS TO POST. Hello people there is a button that says do not publish, how about using it every once and a freakin while!
I don't care what bible character you resemble, what kind of nurse you are, when you will die, what UFC wrestler you are most like, what pussycat doll song best decribes you, what year you will get married in, or which lunch meat looks the most like you. If I wanna know one of these things Ill ask!
Let's keep facebook for what it was originally intended for, connecting with people and of course creepin on other people's pictures (hahaha)!!

I am sooooooo excited for her!

The Return of TLC's What Was a Family

So tonight Jon and Kate Plus 8 returns from its 6 week hiatus. The last time I watched was when they announced that they had filed for divorice, the show at the point was more than awkward it was way too personal. Now don't get me wrong I totally understand that clearly the reason for continuing with the show is financial. At the end of the day they have eight little mouths to feed so sometimes you have to do the necessary in order to continue carrying on.
I hope for everyone's sanity that their lives get a little easier and the press lays off on them a bit, remember at one time they were just a normal family with multiples.

Monday Dream Item - August 3, 2009

So this week's dream item is this gorgeous pair of Miu Miu slide's. I love love all the stones on them. They would look great with a black pencil skirt or a hot pair of dark jeans. You could easily do them in the summer with a cute skirt or in the winter with leggings and a great dress.



Of course they couldn't be a dream item without a hefty price tag, these $750.00 slides are part of Miu Miu's Fall collection. Available at www.neimanmarcus.com and www.bergdorfgoodman.com
Happy "Holiday" Monday!
