Archive for the ‘Closets of the Stars’ Category

I love looking at the Frugal Fashionista site, it gives me hope that you can copy the style of the stars without going broke! Charlize Theron remains to be one of my fashion styling icons, with her laid back but sleek and sophisticated look all the time. Even her paparazzi shots are still glamorous, even if she is running errands going to the grocery or going to her car insurance company. If only I can be as skinny as her!

You can never go wrong with a great white shirt!

I was looking for some Moen kitchen faucets so I can show it to my mom but I somehow I ended up saving this gorgeous dress of Olivia Palermo and showing it to her.I am a big fan of lace dresses and somehow this one looks vintage, trendy, dainty and sexy all at the same time – or is it just because Olivia Palermo is wearing it?

This woman is such a beauty:

Back when I was single, married women would often tell me that once I get married, it is imperative that I still have my own space, literally and figuratively. Never sacrifice the space for your clothes, shoes, bags and vanities. You must always remain a single woman, in terms of closet space. I wish I had paid attention to that advice when I do get married. Five years into my marriage, there is still no space for “my stuff”. It has always been relegated to the bottom of the list because of “baby” stuff and “other” stuff. When I watched Sex and the City 2, I understood the impact of having a his and her space, in terms of bathroom and dressing rooms. Once we get our own home, I will make sure that I will include a dressing room in our house floor plan. And I wouldn’t mind if it is as small as the one Carrie Bradshaw had when she was still single.

I went through the home plans at HousePlansandMore.com and the first thing I filtered for was a dressing room and a big walk-in closet. There really are great homes plans on this website, and you can search by house style(classic, contemporary, ranch, etc) or a house feature that you like. In my case I searched for a house plan that had a dressing room!

Random thought of the day: Did you know the cream used for the treatment of hemorrhoids are used by supermodels and dubbed it as the H cream? They use it as an eye cream! I think it has scientific claims because it can reduce swelling.

Here are some stars and the clothes that they wear. I am loving Jessica Biel’s body AND fashion choices (Love that Grecian style gown). Cameron is still hit and miss all the time while Zoe Saldana’s tutu skirt and all black ensemble is very classy. Mercedes of Glee nails it with her wrap jacket. It falls and drapes and with her fit jeans and ballet flats, she looks like an IT girl from high school!

I have been on the lookout for stills from SATC2 not because I want to know how the story went (I prefer to watch the movie) but because I want to see their outfits! I know fashionistas, baghags and shoe lovers would be putting up an extensive analysis on every piece of the girls’ outfit they would need document management help.
