Dear Fashion Kitty, Layering Help
I discovered your blog a couple weeks ago and think it’s fab-o. I’ve been thinking about something for a few days and it occurred to me that I should ask your opinion on it as you’re a bit more fashion-inclined than me 😉 I’ve got this teal summer dress (it’s from the Bitten line; one…

Dear Fashion Kitty, How do I wear it?
I have kind of a dilemma here, I recently bought this sweater (on sale) Well it’s really long, so I can’t convince myself to wear it with jeans, (because it is so long, it makes me look short). Am I wrong to hate it with jeans? Or could I wear leggings, or even dark tights…

DSW End of Season Sale
It happened, I lost control … Saturday afternoon I decided a little bit of shopping at DSW was well deserved, after all I did have a hell of a week PLUS I had a gift certificate. So I walk into DSW where I am greeted by a salesgirl who says “All clearance is an additional…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Gossip Girl request
First off, THANK YOU for identifying so many Gossip Girl outfits — much appreciated! I was wondering if you know where to buy the purple studded coat that Serena wears at the end of episode 13 (the one that just aired). She wears it in the scene where she finally tells Dan that she loves…
Blink and You’ll Miss Me
On Wednesday night I attended a very nerdy yet shockingly fun tech event called TwiistUp in Venice, CA. I mingled, I sipped cocktails, I met Perez Hilton — heck I was even caught on camera with him. Blink and you’ll miss me, but I was on CBS’s coverage of the event for a good 3…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Serena’s gold coat
Just came across your ‘Gossip Girl’ fashion blog and I love it! It’s so accurate! I was wondering whether you knew where to get the metallic coat Serena (Blake Lively) was wearing at the end of episode 2 – ‘The Wild Brunch’. I can’t find it anywhere! I love that jacket, heck I love that…

Closet Organization for the Fashion Obsessed
I have a lot of clothes, no really a lot. My closet used to be my favorite place to be in my house (yeah I would just hang out in there) but recently it is overrun with new purchases and just a lot of fashionable clutter. In ’08 I am determined to organize it the…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Hollywod Hipster
I live in LA. Lately I’ve been hanging out in the downtown/silverlake scene, and I think my attire has become a bit too American Apparel/hipster. Just recently I started dating a guy who has a lot of in’s in Hollywood. When I went out last week in Hollywood, I swear I forgot how to be…

Did anyone else watch Cashmere Mafia last night? It’s a new show on ABC starring Lucy Liu about 4 women living in Manhattan that are in their 30’s, they gab over cocktails and dinners about careers and men. Sounds familiar? Well it should because this show is supposed to be the next Sex and the…

Dear Fashion Kitty, Retro Leggings
I read your leggings guide, and was hoping you might know where can I buy retro 80’s / 90’s fluorescent leggings like these? Is there a specific name for them? I’ve been searching for months without any luck. Sometimes I amaze myself. I was able to find two pairs retro print leggings for you! They…
Dear Fashion Kitty, shirt help!
I’m looking for a top like this one as a variation on the typical corset top: I don’t even know what this kind of thing is called so I can’t even search for it online. Do you happen to know of any stores/sites that have something like this? That is a hard one to identify…
Dear Fashion Kitty, College Interview Help!
I’m a senior in high school with many, many college interviews coming up and absolutely nothing to wear. I dress casually every day for school so I’ve never had the need to purchase semi-professional clothing until now. I would like to appear sophisticated and well-put together but of course, age-appropriate. As if this weren’t difficult…

Hot Holy Pimp-ness
Hot holy gold pimp-ness these shoes are out of this world fabulous. Look at them! Have you seen anything like them in your life? I haven’t, at least not in my lifetime. They are so obnoxious I would be a fool not to wear them. My goodness — I have just fallen in love with…
Will you be my Splenda Daddy?
Today as I was drooling over these shoes, oh and these shoes too. And I started to think about how hard my New Year’s resolution is going to be. For those of you who don’t know, my resolution this year is to be wiser with my money. That means no more weekly, who the hell…
The Smashbox Studio Style Beauty Kit
I got this kit as a little Christmas present to myself ( I got a lot of those) but seriously it was a deal too great to pass up. I purchased this because I was in desperate need of a new bottle of Photo Finish (which retails at $42) and this kit had that and…
SET Haircare Products
It’s so funny how my bathroom went from having zero hair care products to about a million (well, maybe like 10). Amongst those products is SET which is excellent for my own hair and the few extensions I have sewn into my hair. The SET products that I use are the light weight mouse, which…
New Year, New Hangers
These flocked hangers are awesome! They take up less space and keep your clothes from slipping off the hangers. I picked up a pack yesterday from Bed Bath & Beyond (the new one on Olympic, 2 stories of awesomeness) and I love them. I started off with a pack of 50 which was $39.99 but…
Chanel Blue Satin Nail Polish
It wasn’t too long ago that people went bananas over Chanel’s black satin nail polish. Bottles were selling on ebay for $60 and up, every young celebrity on the planet was painted with it and it even became difficult to nab a knock-off bottle at your local CVS. Dark inky nails are still a fashion…
What’s your style with MyStyle.com
I love a good quiz, I really do, so when I saw that MyStyle.com had a quiz that claimed to determine my own personal style I just had to play along. The quiz is simple you are shown a variety of images and you just have to click on your favorite. The questions are as…
Betsey Johnson purchases
I worked over at Betsey Johnson this past weekend and needless to say, I spent my entire paycheck (plus some). Here is what I got … I also did some damage at Kohls with the line from Vera Wang. Let me tell you … I am not a fan of Kohls (that place gives me…
Fashion Kitty, boot expert? Hell yes!
The Pittsburgh Tribune just published an article about Snowjoggers (those hideous Napoleon Dynamite shoes that are popular now). Read the complete article here> Here is my part …. Snowjoggers hit the celeb scene in January, when swag-hungry stars grabbed pairs at the Sundance Film Festival’s gift lounges. Soon, actors and actresses were wearing the boots,…
Shoe Party Photos
Remember earlier this month when I was a “celebrity” judge at the Hello Stiletto shoe party? Thats me in the middle if any of you are new here. The party was held at Zu Robata, which is a semi-trendy sushi restaurant in Brentwood. I give the food an “eh” but maybe that is because everything…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Jeans Question
After reading last week’s article “Fashion Kitty’s Guide to Premium Denim” I realized I don’t have a favorite denim because there isn’t a pair of jeans on the market that fits my shape. I had a great pair of dark blue jeans in high school that I wore until I was 26. By the time…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Piano Key Necktie
Hey there Fashion Kitty, I’ve been running myself up a WALL trying to find one of those vintage piano necktie’s (just like Will Ferrell invented in Zoolander). Does ANYONE sell them? Do you know where I can get a hold of one? I’ve got an 80’s themed party for New Year’s this year and am…
Rejuva Wand, the Conclusion
It’s been over a month since my Rejuva journey began. I started on my birthday when I was feeling old at the tender age of 27 and has now ended with me feeling better than ever. Was it the wand? No, sorry folks it wasn’t the wand. It’s actually been my kick ass workout regiment,…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Are Calvins Cool?
Is it hip to wear Calvin Klein jeans or are they out of style? In my opinion Calvin Klein jeans are out. For me there is so much better denim out in the world and that makes Calvin’s not so appealing to me. However, if you find a pair of jeans that fit and make…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Slippery Shoes
I just got a pair of Stuart Weitzman peep-toes on super sale from Neimans. I absolutely LOVE them, but the soles have zero traction. I’m slipping and sliding all over the place and I haven’t even left my apartment. I tried to search ThisNext for a product, but I couldn’t find what i was looking…
Dear Fashion Kitty, Winter Help!
Ever since it’s gotten cold, I feel like I’ve been in a rut. I was wondering if you had any suggestions for cute, nice flats that I could wear socks with, or if there is some way I could wear sock with my other flats that don’t make me look ridiculous. Also, I feel like…

I went ghetto for MD Skincare
I have a confession, I was seriously ghetto about an hour ago. You see about a year and a half ago I went to Nordstrom and the woman gave me a sample of this MD Skincare All Over Blemish Gel, it was awesome. After about a week (maybe two) I had polished off the sample…

I was reading your November 26th blog- The Clothes off My Back and absolutely loveee the oxford pumps! Where did you find them for so cheap?! Ahh yes, my dirty little secret Steven by Steve Madden shoes. I am such a Steve Madden hater but I couldn’t resist these heavily discounted shoes that I found…
Get the Look: Gossip Girl fashion, Blair Waldorf
My latest guilty pleasure is watching Gossip Girl on the CW. It’s a silly little show based in New York’s upper East side with a bunch of spoiled rich prep school kids having a drama filled time. They drink, they party, they sleep with their best friend boyfriends — it’s pretty much a trashy good…

Oops …
Not one of my finest moments, but I need to share it all the same … Every morning I wake up around 5:45/ 6:00 am so I can drag myself out of bed to go to the gym for a few hours. Because I am half asleep, I only have enough energy to get out…
