Shoe Crazzz-E!

                                I love shoes!

If there's one fashion item that I'm obsessed with are shoes. Why? For a number of reasons.

1. No matter how many calories you intake your shoe size will stay the same.

2. They can take an outfit from office chic to dance floor hottie in seconds.

3. When you find your perfect pair, you don't need to cram into a small dressing room to try them on. Real shoenista's can select their right size without trying them on, but just by looking at them.

Ok ok, so you get my point!

While browsing the web during New York City's worst snow storms ever, I found the Nicholas Kirkwood website and fell in love with his collection. To spare you some time from clicking through over 44 styles, I selected my favorites to share with you.

                                                                    Enjoy!



Happy Holiday's

                                         My favorite time of the year has finally arrived!

This holiday season I started off by exploring New York City. Who can resist NYC during Christmas time? The streets are alive with brighter lights, yuletide joy, and my favorite retail stores display their best window displays. 

First stop was the Rockefeller Christmas Tree. I've lived in New York City my whole life but never took the time to stop and take pictures of the tree. What you can't see from my pictures was the way the tree would sparkle every 10-15 minutes. It was soo romantic and beautiful!

While I felt like a tourist, I didn't mind because there was such a chilly joy in the air. After making our way through the crowd we stopped by Saks Fifth Avenue to view their light show and the Holiday windows. Our night ended with a tall cup of joe from Starbucks!

That's all for now. I hope you enjoy your holiday with family and good food! xoxo, Je'Mere

2010 Out with a....Bang!

We all deserve a new look every now and then.

This past weekend I felt the urge to make a change to my hair at a time when all hair salons were closed. After several failed attempts, I finally got the courage to cut my bangs and I went for it. With scissors in hand, I cut little by little, as hair fell in the sink. I stopped when I got to the length I was comfortable with, above the eye lid and below the eyebrow. At this length, I’m still able to sweep the bangs to the side for an alternative look.

Don't get confused, I'm no hairdresser. I'm just a girl with courage who loves to take risks (Only with hair that I know grows in fast! Otherwise, I would have waited for my hair stylist!).

Bangs provide a dramatic look for just about any face shape in any hair color. The right length will accentuate your eye shape, cheek bones, and a jaw line when paired with the right amount of make up. I would suggest a nude lip with eye popping liner and eye shadow.

One tip: Be careful not to get scissor happy, or else this can happen...

It's ok if your Katy Perry or going for a retro look. If not, then be prepared to rock a pulled back ponytail for 4 weeks!
