Jessica Alba's Fashionable Winter

Even though I am not a big fan of Jessica's busy summer style, somehow her layering tendencies really worked for her this winter:

 

My Easter Outfit

A special part of my wardrobe is dedicated to what I call "Family Dinner tops". I bet you know the feeling ..holidays are approaching, you are about to meet the female half of your extended family you see only during those few festive times of the year, and you have a closet full of cotton T-shirts and strapless night club stuff. (Note that I just admitted to "dressing for women" as I can't help but notice that most men could care less about fashion, well of course till it comes to high heels or short skirts.)
It is during these times of year, such as Christmas or Easter, when I start desperately browsing different websites for that cute, comfy, conservative top to wear to family dinner. This Easter I got especially lucky having found this adorable top for $20 on sale at Banana Republic. It is a bit Soccer Mom-ish but if you don't pair it with a Coach purse but rather a pair of high-waisted skinny jeans, like I did, it works.

T-Bags Neck Tie Blouse

I know I have blogged about this blouse before, but just so you know it was this Parisian fashionista's fault that I actually ended up purchasing it. Look at her (the mademoiselle on the left), isn't her style just awesomely feminine and chic?

Not the same blouse, but close :)

Also, now I finally understand why LeAnn Rimes is sooo skinny these days. She got that blouse too and she ended up with no money left for food...

Ahhh too bad you are sooo expensive, you darn wooden shoe!

Paper Bag Bag

Several years back, in my restaurant days, I had a coworker who would, on daily basis, carry her belongings in a paper bag instead of wearing a regular purse. Whether she made such a poor fashion choice due to lack of money or just out of pure laziness shall remain forever unknown. However, something tells me ..that even my former coworker would not go for this leather version of a paper bag purse:
