These Hangers are an Absolute Must...




These have to be the best thing to keep your wardrobe looking nice. They are ultra thin, velvet-flocked (which pretty much means coated with a soft fabric type coating) hangers to keep your clothes from falling on the ground. I've tried plastic with hooks and cloth covered, but the plastic ones are slippery and the cloth ones are just too thick. This is the perfect middle ground!

Is That a Penny on Your Finger, Or...?


Some really funky round cocktail rings have been popping up in the fashion mags lately. The one pictured ($68) was in Lucky recently, and the website (allisondanieldesigns.com) has a ton of other cute ones too. Check out the 'moonstone ring' and the 'round ring'. I'm sure you could browse the vintage stores and kick-knack shops as well to lower the price point if you wanted the investment to be a little more fad-worthy.

Belt It!



We've known we were back in the 'belt it' phase for a while here at Sovanda, but we had yet to find a really great belt to recommend. Until now. Love the Crocodile-print leather belt at Banana Repubulic for all sort of options. Cinch a jewel toned dress, and show off your cute middle..too much of this empire waist stuff going on anyway!

Black Work-Able Flats

Steve Madden - Klair (Black Leather) - Women's

These are such great flats from Steve Madden ($73.95). I have another pair that I like for work, but these are even better. The buckle ensures less of a kidsy looks so they are professional enough for work, but finally comfy too!

Lower-End Lines by Higher-End Names


First perfume by everyone and their brother, and now it seems like the new celeb trend is a low-end clothing line. 'Simply Vera' by Vera Wang is selling at Khol's and 'Bitten' by Sarah Jessica Parker is selling at Steve and Barry's. Add these to H&M and Mango, and it fashion has taken a turn for the cheap.

I definitely doubt the overall quality of these clothes, but trend gear never makes it past a season anyway. The dress pictures above is from the 'Simply Vera' line, for $68. That is higher than a lot of the celeb lines at Target and other discount chains, so maybe the details are there. I'll have to scout it out. Also, check out the cute coat on the left (Bitten $19.95) it may not be quality...but at this price you could practically wear it once!

Cute, Cute, Cute Dresses at Macy's

Love this dress, and what a great color for this time of year! This one is by Inc, and the same company makes a lot of other good ones. Just click the picture to get to it at Macy's. Try it with opaque black tights and black heels if you dare:)

Keeping the Girls From Peeking


We all have those button up stretch dress shirts that fit right...usually. Then you lean the wrong way a little and all the sudden you have a massive gap. Yikes, no bra shot intended. This product (www.bugcatcherz.com) can help. It is basically double sided tape that fits around your button. Just one thing though...if all of your button-ups do this all the time, it is time for a new size not a roll of doublestick!

Snugly Men's Sweatshirt/Jacket for This Winter

I LOVE this sherpa sweatshirt by JCrew, but bummer I can't find the picture of it on their website anymore. Perfect for walking around with a coffee on a Saturday, and so snugly! Go look for it in the store! It comes in navy and coffee (ironic), did I say I love it yet?

Cute Tees, Long on the Sleeves


Looking for some long sleeve tee shirts like me? I like these ones from Urban Outfitters. I'm hoping that they aren't paper thin, but for $24 I'll take my chances. Good length for skinny(er) jeans, fall is coming and I've got some cute ballet flats to add to the outfit.
