In The Trenches

Heartless Leopard Platforms

For Valentine's Day I wanted to feature one item that I haven't been able to get off my mind. Though I don't usually opt for animal print shoes, the heart cutout is what sold me on these shoes. These Heartless Leopard Platforms would be a great addtion to a pinup girl look or a retro style. I found them while browsing through Plasticland.com, which is one of my favorite accessory web shops for retro items like these pumps. I give heart to these pumps!

Enjoy Weekends: Coming out of my cage

Coming out of my cage by ladyadelaide featuring green jewelry

It is so easy to get trapped in a style cage--repeatedly being drawn to the same looks, trying on and buying similar items to what one already has in their closet. Easily you can become a style bore, even if your clothes are all lovely, simply because you constantly stick to same ol' look.

We find what works for us and get stuck. Instead of updating our wardrobe, we buy items we already have in different colors. What's the fun in that? Style is fun. Fashion is fun. And part of that fun is experimenting with different looks. I dare you, just for this weekend, try a look you rarely consider. If you are always in blacks and dark shades, try adding some red or blue to your outfit. Do you always look trendy? Why not test out a classic look. Or perhaps exchange your cutesy flats for some killer platform heels.

Have fun experimenting and enjoy your weekend!

Juicy Bamboo Cleansing Cloth Review

2012-02-09T10:55:00.000-08:00

In January's Glymm box I recieved a sample of Juicy Bamboo cleansing cloths. These cloths are made with natual ingredients such as sunflower oil, Candian honey and 8 essential nutirents. They do not contain any parabins. Noticing all the natural ingredients, I was very excited to try these cloths. Above is a video review of the product and what I thought of it.
