The Fred Segal Sale
Thursday night I got to check out the Fred Segal sale (before it started … yeah I am special like that) with the beautiful Ben from We Love Beauty and my partner in crime, Sarah from The Delicious Life. I picked up some Korres face wash and this little bracelet I mentioned in an earlier…
Eyebrow waxing at Benefit
While I was at Benefit learning how to use all of their cool products I decided to take advantage of something of their in store beauty treatments. They were offering free eyebrow waxing and eyelash tinting. Since my eyelashes are already plenty dark I opted for the waxing. It was definitely going to be a…
Good luck with Hamsa
Good things come to those who wait. That’s what they always say but when it comes to shopping I have no idea how to wait. For months I have wanted to pick up this Hollywood starlet staple, the Hamsa bracelet. Sure it’s a bit cliché but I like it. I am not even sure why…
Benefit Beauty 101
I have always loved Benefit for their adorable packaging and unique products, yet I never really used too many of their products. They were so unique and advanced that I didn’t know what to do with them. I have now seen the light after speaking with expert Sara Reischman who gave me a lesson at…

Dear Fashion Kitty: The Skinny on Leggings
I’m embracing the whole tunic thing this fall — went a little nuts at Calypso on some great cashmere knits this weekend. But I’m having a hard time finding any decent leggings. What’s the deal — were leggings a springtime thing? I prefer the sleek stretchy spandexy ones over American Apparel’s cotton stiffies. I saw…

It’s a little chilly in L.A today so I had to bring out the sleeves … Brown top by Michael Stars Jeans (kickin’ it old school) by Yanuk Light weight sweater by Mossimo Belt by Meghan Fabulous Shoe by Michael Kors Earrings by Betsey Johnson
Dear Fashion Kitty: Dressing up my dress
I got this J.Crew dress as a gift and as I have kind of a prom (“kind of”, b/c I’m living in Poland) coming in January, I thought I could wear it then. BUT here comes the dilemma- is it possible to make this lovely but modest dress look stylish, chic and sexy? I’d really…
Dear Fashion Kitty: What to wear to a job interview
Hello Fashion Kitty, I have a interview coming up and have no idea what is appropriate to wear. I am in my late 40’s and it is for a retail position. Thanks much. Job interviews are always tough, especially for a retail position (which I had my fair of share of).ili There is no need…
The moment you have all been waiting for …
My before and after shots …. Mind you these pictures are ghetto. I took them myself. I am still afraid of myself, I look in the mirror and I don’t know who the hell it is. But here I am (I guess it’s me) so tell me what you think. And be nice bitches, I…
Little Black Dress Fever
As I am sitting here adjusting to my new haircut (yes I will post pictures soon, I swear) and watching Breakfast at Tiffany’s I have a new found appreciation for the “little black dress”. Audrey Hepburn looks simply stunning dressed in her “LBD” and fabulously flashy jewels. Makes me wish I could travel back in…
I hate Steve Madden
Oops he did it again, he knocked off another shoe and made it look like shit. The Real Deal: Christian Louboutin $925 The Icky Knock-off: Steve Madden $149
Tomorrow is the Big Day!
My dreads are getting chopped off tomorrow! Wish me luck. PLEASE. I will be video taping the process and will update Ask Fashion Kitty with before and after pics. Hopefully I won’t hate it and be too traumatized to post. OMG! Will I be traumatized? I am getting scared. I am freaking out. Have you…
Sale Alert: ShopBop starts 9/18
My own “Mazda Challenge”
As you saw in my earlier post, I went away to Monterey this weekend and was forced to pack light due to the hot ass Mazda Miata we were driving. Well, it all fit (with room to spare). I have tons to post about my fabulous weekend, but I am WAY too tired to do…
Must Have Leggings by DKNY
I picked up a copy of French Glamour at the newsstand the other day, sure I don’t know French but the pictures sure were pretty. The only English in the magazine was the clothing credits and celebrity names (all American celebrities); which really isn’t that all the English I need. I saw these great sequin…
Rachel Zoe, that bitch!
image from Nymag.com Look at the anorexic California Raisin had to say to the New York Times Magazine about my goddess Anna Wintour. “Anna Wintour is one of my heroes, but they say that I’m more influential. As great as it is, Vogue won’t change a designer’s business. But if an unknown brand is worn…
Sweet Escape … Weekend Getaway
I am taking a trip to Northern California this weekend and I am faced with a challenge … packing light. You see my travel companion and I are driving instead of flying (she has a slight fear of tiny planes) and the car we have rented is a sports car. A tiny sports car. Maybe…
Dear Fashion Kitty: Name that clutch
Where can I get my hands on Demi Moore’s red clutch she wore to the Zac Posen show sitting next to Lucy Lui? I have looked everywhere, the buckle looks slightly Burberry-ish. Thanks! Great bag isn’t it! I have a white one just like it that I scored from a vintage store. I am going…
Dear Fashion Kitty: Celebrity vs. Designer
Can you do a product comparison of celebrity labels vs. normal labels and see which one is better quality? I’m so sick of these celebrity lines that charge an arm and a leg for crappy quality clothes and shoes. For example, did you know that House of Dereon has a pair of boots on Zappos.com…
On the hunt for a ‘L’ Dress
I was looking through some of my old Nylon magazines last night when I saw a dress I forgot I was looking for. The dress is this awesome L sweatshirt dress by Lover, an Australian brand. I need this dress, hello my name is Lauren … it’s perfect. I found the dress online but they…
Remember when Jenna was Hot?
Heatherette fashion shows are known for being crazy. Wild designs, over the top celebrity models … Remember when Nicole Richie showed us her goods, that was at a Heatherette show … So to see Lil Mama perform, half naked men parading down the runway, and small children modeling couture dresses was no surprise. But to…
Phermones on Fire with L.A.M.B Perfume
I purchased Gwen Stefani’s perfume about a month ago and I love it! I scent is raking in the men left and right, I have even had a few women tell me I smell good. So it’s nice to see that Gwennie has expanded her fragrance line to include a lotion, shower gel, and now…
Skyn your eyes
As I am sure you could tell in my last post picture … my eyes are tired! With the late nights out on the town, staring at a computer 24/7, sleeping in my contacts, and the change in weather … my eyes are a mess. I was happy as a clam when I returned home…
At Home Eyebrow Grooming
I am a waxer. I enjoy the pain and I enjoy the results. However, lately I have been really busy/ lazy. My favorite eyebrow waxing spot is on Melrose at the Verad salon with Irene. The thing with Verad is they are only open Tuesday- Saturday from 10:00-5:00 leaving Saturday as my only option. Occasionally…
Cute boots at Victoria’s Secret
Call me crazy but I actually found some cute boots at Victoria’s Secret today AND all boots at 20% off, just use coupon code “Boots20”. Here they are in all of their glory … Sam Edelman Strapped bootie. The rest of the boots on Victoria’s Secret are fug, but these I can work with. With…
Because you deserve it … ShopBop Coupons
When I woke up this morning something bazaar happened … It was freaking cold. After a blazing hot heat wave in Los Angeles just a week ago, it was a little odd to be shivering this morning. I guess the summer really is over. Goodbye irresponsible Kitty and hello sensible Fall time Kitty. With this…
Closer still
I went in for my hair consultation this evening and I am so excited. I am really going to do this and turns out the timing couldn’t be better. Let me start from the beginning… I headed down Robertson Blvd. to the salon with my insane collage of my new hair cut from every angle…
NY Fashion Week Coverage
I was up late last night pumping away posts for StyleDash covering New York Fashion Week. Be sure to check out StyleDash for all of my latest runway reviews. So far my favorite show has been L.A.M.B. I love the mod/ ska influences (it was so No Doubt Hella Good Days). It was great how…
Pashmina’s gone wild
Is it just me or are pashmina’s showing up everywhere?! They keep showing up at my doorstep, and I really can’t complain about that. The latest addition to my collection is this cheetah print pashmina. First of all its soft as butta baby. When I saw the product image I knew I would love it…
How fashionable is your home?
I got an email today about Domino’s first ever decorating contest. What should I enter, my living room or my bedroom? If you think your pad is as snappy as mine, I would love the competition. Bring it on! WIN $10,000 IN “THE DOMINO DECORATING CONTEST” – OPEN NOW domino is asking the public (only…
One step closer …
Update: Consultation was reschedule for tomorrow at 7pm… Is it a sign? I don’t know. Ahhhh… the suspense is killing me! I am going to chop my hair off. It just has to be done. A new chapter must be unveiled. So hold on tight. I have my consultation today at 6:30 PST — let’s…
Miu Miu rocks my world
Gimme gimme… These shoes are vital to my fall wardrobe. I have no idea what I would wear the flats with, I think I would play them down with a medium wash pair of skinny jeans with a white tank. But those motorcycle boots are something that I would wear everyday! I could wear them…
I am not my hair … I am not my hair
As I am sitting here in my underwear, covered in sweat because my apartment is like a freaking sauna, I have started thinking about my hair. Again! For those who know me personally, you know that this topic comes up a lot. I have dreads. I have had them almost 8 years. They are fabulous….
It’s gettin hot in here
OMG is it hot in Los Angeles right now. All summer my friends would complain about the heat I would taunt them with my east coast tough girl routine. Seriously, 90 degrees with no humidity isn’t hot. Especially when my past summers in D.C. were hot as hell … 90 degrees with 100% humidity is…
Marc Jacobs Shades
Last year I bought a fabulous pair of Gucci sunglasses, only to find them broken this year. Nothing drastic, just the nose support fell off. Seemed like a simple fix but every single eye wear shop didn’t have a screw small enough to repair them. I am sure I could go on Rodeo Drive and…
Fell in Love with a Shoe
This is a first, taking a picture of my Vogue. Last night after breaking my back lifting my 840 page Vogue, I opened to the back to start my reading. I love reading magazines from back to front because they always hide the good stuff in back. Look at these shoes! I am in love,…
Who am I?
Bloggerina- the prima donna of the blogosphere who takes blogging to a whole new level into an art form. May or may not be wearing a tutu while blogging — has an unhealthy obsession with the color pink. “That bloggerina’s blog is really pink!” – from the Urban Dictionary
My New Favorite Fashion Movie: Factory Girl
Last night after I came down from my BBQ buzz, I came to by senses at some actual vegetables and cruised through Pay-per-View. I didn’t see anything I wanted to watch in the new releases, so I scrolled through the massive lists of “all movies” and found Factory Girl. I had totally forgotten that I…
Product Review: Raven Black Pashmina
I have always secretly wanted a pashmina. It first started when I was working at Nordstrom right out of college, I worked in the accessory department. The accessories department wasn’t bad, it was no contemporary department but it wasn’t bad. There were sunglasses, hair accessories, hats, gloves, scarves. We always had an endless supply of…
Back in Black
I drive down the same street every day and see this random little store. I stare at it in disgust. I know nothing about the store … but hey I am judgmental like that. So what! One day one of my friends/ co-workers had on this adorable little white dress. So I asked her where…
Dear Fashion Kitty
hey, can you do a product comparison of celebritylabels vs normal labels and see which one is betterquality? I’m so sick of these celebrity lines thatcharge an arm and a leg for crappy quality clothes andshoes. For example, did you know that House of Dereonhas a pair of boots on zappos.com that are going for$260?…
Dear Fashion Kitty: Cleaning out my closet
My problem is that I love, love, love to shop and my closet is bulging with the fruits of my bargain-hunting labors. Soon the hub and I will be moving to a smaller house. I need to part with at least half of the things I own. What’s the wisest thing I could do? My…
Sequin Shorts: Finally Found
Remember way back when in February when I was looking for sequin shorts? Well I have FINALLY found them. Patricia Field has $74 sequin shorts … much cheaper than Chanel. The only question is Navy or Black? They also come in gold, but that’s just silly.
Buy yourself a nice pair of jeans
I am wearing my new True Religion jeans today and I am loving them. Loving them so much that I want to buy like 3 more pairs of Trues. Good thing its denim week huh? I also kinda wanna know what the free gift is … I am a whore for free gifts… wait that…
Mission Accomplished
Today was a strange Saturday because I didn’t have S Factor today (will return next week), so I had the whole day devoted to me. I started off the day with a 3 mile jog/ walk to Larchmont and back, which was lovely. Most lovely part about it was that I went so early in…
