Quote du Jour: Isla Fisher as Rebecca Bloomwood

Isla Fisher as Rebecca Bloomwood in Confessions of a Shopaholic

You know that thing when you see someone cute and he smiles and your heart kind of goes like warm butter sliding down hot toast? Well that's what it's like when I see a store. Only it's better.

You speak Prada?

When I was 7 most of my friends stopped believing in magic. That's when I first started. They were beautiful, they were happy. They didn't even need any money, they had magic cards.

Currently Craving: Spring Sandals

1 // 2 // 3

Sandals are one of my favorite parts of spring, and these are no exception. I prefer sandals any day in the spring, they pull your outfit together much better than a pair of black rubber flip-flops.

a few sandal essentials for spring: leather, bright color, neutral, black

Style Icons: Kate Middleton

1. Alexander McQueen Dress, Jimmy Choo Heels (London, December 2011) // 2. Jenny Packham Gown (London, June 2011) // 3. Diane von Furstenberg 'Maia' Dress (Los Angeles, July 2011)

Kate has come a long way from her days at St. Andrews when she fell for a prince, and not just her prince charming, he is the Prince William that you know you have swooned over at one time or another. The Duchess of Cambridge is currently expecting her first child with the Duke of Cambridge, and I just know this baby will be not only beautiful but impeccably dressed if his/her mother has anything to do with it!
