Blondie’s Spotlight

Reds
Jewelry Designer/ Image Consultant Corey Hackett What was the inspiration behind the name TruYeroc? TruYeroc is inspired by a lifestyle that I have created in my paradigm.  So my bracelets represent a lifestyle and a image that I feel people will appreciate and each piece represents an extension of my ultimate goal in which I will not share just yet.... Who all is a part of the brand? When was it started? My brand has three direct affiliations.  KBCWW, Forefront Image Consultant, and Spencer Wallace. ....oh and I started TruYeroc ....lol!

Styling Tips for Fall Pt. 3

Reds
Though dirndls first originated as a native German costume worn at Oktoberfest, designers have reworked this traditional full-skirted silhouette into a modern must-have—and the season's essential skirt shape. Dirndls enjoyed a moment in the '50s, when voluminous skirts and cinched-in waistlines were a hallmark of the era's fashions, and they're now experiencing a runway resurrection in a variety of contemporary colors, textures, and patterns. A classic dirndl skirt calls for a circular cut with a gathered waistband and below-the-knee hemline, and while modern-day styles vary a bit, the look is always a cross between coy and sweet. Lest you think dirndls are only suitable for the von Trapps, we're showing you exactly how to wear them in today'sTrend Report. On The Runway We were particularly fond of Marc Jacob's F/W…

Styling Tips for Fall Pt. 2

Reds
It's time to break out your tights and boots, readers, as today's story on fall skirts will certainly require them both. With so many different skirt lengths, textures, and patterns available however, it's easy to become overwhelmed by the bounty of options on the market. That's why we've narrowed down some of the season's key shapes in a variety of stylish prints and rich fabrics. So we'll stop skirting the issue now—and let you take a look at our must-have picks! Designer Inspiration Skirts figured prominently on the F/W 12 runways, but we were particularly intrigued by Derek Lam's rendition. The designer's Black Leather Floral Embroidered Pencil Skirt ($3990), paired with the Grey Wool Pullover With Black Lambskin Leather Trim ($1450, 212.966.1616) and Grey Leather Devon Ankle Booties ($790, 212.966.1616), is sophisticated with a fashion-forward twist—and exactly…

Looks for Less

Reds
Hey loveys!! I love fashion & haute couture but I'm not always excited about paying those high prices! & just when I'm about to break down & sound $$$$ on this or that, I visit a store/site that's up on the trends & a lot nicer to my pockets. This new segment is for all my bargain huntress' out there who want that same look for less! First stop Rue21 Nothing over $25 BUT you get what you pay for. When buying shoes at a low price remember the cheaper they are, the cheaper the quality. The idea is to LOOK like the more expensive shoe! For example, the spike trend: Wrong Right The glitter & spikes is too much & looks cheap but just a touch of spike detailing…
