J. Peterman Melrose Ave Knot Dress

Just think of the entrance you'll make at the next office party!


As J. Peterman says, "this street in L.A. has a 'sense of place' all to its own" and it's definitely reflected in this beautiful Melrose Ave Knot Dress.  It's figure hugging in the all the right places and immediately draws your eyes to the knot detailing.

Available in Brick, luscious Cream or royal Purple, the stylish Melrose Ave Knot Dress by J. Peterman retails for just $169 at where else? J. Peteman.

Help Support Breast Cancer

According to the unfortunate statistics, 1 in 8 women across the U.S. and Canada will be diagnosed with breast cancer.

I was diagnosed in June of 2011 and am still here fighting today.  Even though I'm not going to get into my personal story, I encourage you to read about Susan G. Komen and her fight for the cure.

Please take the time to support this wonderful foundation if you can ;)

Save with this Bargain Ostrich Handbag

While totally trendy and yet classic enough to last for years to come, one of this season's must-have items is an Ostrich Handbag.


But here's the good news - you don't have to spend $10,000 or more on an authentic Hermes Birkin Tote (on the left) to get the look!  Did you know that this iconic handbag (in one form or another) dates back to the 1980's?!  Talk about a true classic.


So, check out this knock off bargain version from Target (on the right), the Target Merona Camel Ostrich Tote for only $29.99!  It's available online and in stores but I'm sure it won't last long...

Where's the Jennifer Lopez Green Yellow Dress from Kohl's?

The Jennifer Lopez Green Yellow Brown Dress for Kohl's is being very elusive....

While you can shop the Kohl's website and even choose this specific 'featured look from her t.v. spot', this gorgeous dress from her Spring 2012 Island Paradise Collection is no where to be seen!  Choosing 'shop this look' only supplies the chance to purchase this outfit's accessories: Jennifer Lopez Platform High Heels, Gold Tone Hammered -Disc Linear Drop Earrings, Flower Stretch Ring, and Stretch Bracelet.

I've researched around the web while there are many complaints as this Jennifer Lopez Green Yellow Brown Dress, it doesn't seem to be available in stores or online!  I emailed Kohl's Customer Service Department only to be told that the dress is 'unavailable to order at this time' and that the item 'may be added in the future'.  What a lame explanation.

So, Kohl's, just where is this Jennifer Lopez Green Yellow Dress? While I love your store & styles, this is totally not cool.  Or perhaps this is about creating demand for a product before it's ever released?  A little explanation would go a long way for all of us....
