See, these are more my style as far as statement shoes go — but again, it’s just a matter of personal taste. I really like that these take a classic style and update them with some fun colors; I like them even more because for someone out there, the “natural sandy calf” will basically be … Read More about Coffee Break: Rachel Roy Ana Pointed Cap-Toe Pumps
Coffee Break: Anti-Theft Hobo Bag
While hunting for basic black bags for our earlier roundup, I found this interesting “anti-theft” hobo bag, which I could see being a nice bit of security if you’re traveling. In addition to a padded laptop compartment and a zillion little zippered pockets, there are a ton of safety features — you can clip the … Read More about Coffee Break: Anti-Theft Hobo Bag
Coffee Break: Bel Air Two Stone Hinge Bracelet (and Deal Alert: Intermix Sale!)
The Intermix sale is getting amazing right now — tons of really interesting pieces for under $150 (all final sale, sadly). For today’s coffee break I’m in love with this rose gold hinge bracelet by Alexis Bittar — it was $245, but is now marked to $59. Gorgeous. A few other selections from the sale, … Read More about Coffee Break: Bel Air Two Stone Hinge Bracelet (and Deal Alert: Intermix Sale!)
Coffee Break: Labradorite Lapis Ring
One of my favorite “fun” stones is labradorite, and it seems to be having a moment right now. If you’re not familiar with it, it can be a bit like a gray moonstone, with some rainbows hidden in it, as well as a few sparkles. This ring — with what looks like an absolutely gorgeous … Read More about Coffee Break: Labradorite Lapis Ring
Coffee Break: Air Talia Wedge 40
I’m sure I’ve recommended this exact shoe in the past, but a) it’s a classic, and b) I actually haven’t seen this nice navy suede color before. Something about it just strikes me as so pretty — and at $106.99 (40% off) it’s not a bad deal. 6pm.com has it in four other colors, including … Read More about Coffee Break: Air Talia Wedge 40
Coffee Break: Anne Street Frame Satchel
Pretty! I love this blue color combo for spring — it seems happy and bright, and I think a light blue bag is surprisingly versatile. As always, I love Cole Haan bags — great quality for the price point, as you see with the feet on this satchel, the keyfob, the smart interior pockets, and … Read More about Coffee Break: Anne Street Frame Satchel
Coffee Break: Dagger Y Necklace
Shopbop added a ton of new things to their sale today (including a lot of DvF dresses, Equipment blouses, Theory pants, Black Halo dresses, and more), so I thought I’d peruse the sale section for something for the coffee break — and I love this garnet necklace. I think the Y shape looks delicate but … Read More about Coffee Break: Dagger Y Necklace
Coffee Break: Zombie Growler Platform Heels
Oooh: I’m loving these zombie growler platform heels for a casual day at the office.
Coffee Break: ‘Emma’ Pump
Sigh. Gorgeous, gorgeous shoe — and oh so on trend. Current trends seen in this shoe: emerald (color of the year), “single sole” (no platform), ankle strap (they’re everywhere!), pointed toe (they’re ba-ack), and — just so you can’t pull out any pointy-toed, ankle-strapped shoes you may still have from a few years ago — … Read More about Coffee Break: ‘Emma’ Pump
Coffee Break: Hourglass Footwear
For the shoe-obsessed woman who thinks she already has everything, I bring you… Hourglass Footwear, where artists hand-paint the shoes. I’m featuring a mid-heel here (named, ahem, “Burlesque”) but they also make platforms, stilettos, flats, and “comfort” shoes. You can even send them a pair of shoes of your own and they’ll paint those shoes … Read More about Coffee Break: Hourglass Footwear
Coffee Break: Rib Control Top Tights
Sweater tights are not for everyone or every office — but if your office is casual enough to get away with them, these ribbed ones from HUE look great. I first saw the colored version of the tights through my Shop It To Me email, which look fun for the weekend, but mostly alerted me … Read More about Coffee Break: Rib Control Top Tights
Coffee Break: Pashli Satchel
This bag first caught my eye in shocking pink over at Barney’s, where they seem to have unfortunately sold out… but I like this subdued “shark-embossed texture” even better. I like the zippers, the large, lined interior, and the general chic look. And while it is slightly reminiscent of the Celine luggage bag, this one … Read More about Coffee Break: Pashli Satchel
