Color Crush: Black Gold

I know...Summer is still in full-swing, but I couldn't help but notice the overwhelming number of faintly fall-like black and gold pretties that I've been bookmarking online lately. Maybe it's my heat-weary mind trying to find whatever relief it can...the promise that Fall really will come again (despite the seemingly endless 100 degree weather). Whatever the case, maybe you too will enjoy indulging in a little black gold love with me today. I hope so. xo Ez

Site for Sore Eyes: Kendi Everyday

Woot! Woot! I have a new blog for you to add to your feed readers today y'all! Meet Kendi Everyday - a charming fashion blog that I became instantly smitten with as soon as I realized that fashionista/blogger Kendi showcases outfits that I can actually afford. I love a good fashion blog as much as nearly any girl does, but most of them leave me feeling more than a little blah...because rolling out of bed and tossing on my Choos and Cavalli are about as much my reality as riding on a unicorn to go grocery shopping is.

So for a happy dose of style inspiration that your wallet can't argue with you about, head on over to Kendi Everyday. Don't forget to add her to your readers. xo Ez
