Isabel Marant for H&M

From the designer who brought us the coveted wedged Velcro sneaker ,Parisian designer Isabel Marant has brought  a chic collection to select  H&M stores as of November 14th.  Slow down fashionistas, there is more! Although this clothing chain has reasonable prices for its apparel, expect to spend at least $150 for the items in the Marant collection.  To be quite honest, this is a steal compared to Marant's Peplum jacket for sale at Barney's New York for $955!
Some noteworthy items in the H&M collection include her laced leather pants for $299 and cute suede pumps for $199.  Check out the H&M site to determine if your local H&M will have the collection! Best wishes !

Fashion Forward For the Holidays....Rent The Runway!

Ladies... We all have come to grips that the holidays are fast approaching and they have approached faster than we thought! Don't fear ladies! We have a little something here @FLL we wanna share with you! See, most of you were invited to dinner parties, soirées, black, white, red, etc. affairs, and the end of year fiesta called New Years!

Since we are already breaking the bank buying presents and turkeys, why not give your debit card a break when it comes to your attire. Rent the Runway has a plethora of dresses, pantsuits, and such which will feed your fashion appetite without killing your credit card. Dresses for rent start at $25 and you get another dress in the same style for free! Keep in mind ladies that these are designers such as Herve Leger, Moschino, Missoni, and Anna Sui so you are getting catwalk threads at cat litter prices! 

I rented on two separate occasions and LOVED the dresses.  Below is a pic of me before my engagement photo session .

They send your dresses in a cool garment bag (every time) with invisible tape and other "mayday" type tools you may need to keep you from having an inappropriate moment. Check out the site, I'm sure you will subscribe. BTW...refer your friends and get discounts on your rentals. Is that more of an incentive to sign up?   http://www.renttherunway.com
