Color Crave: Pretty in pastel pink...

(Photo: Feministing)

While we are aware that we have bloged about our love for pink before... We are so hearting baby pastel pink right now we had to give it another go.

If you read about color therapy, they say that pastel pink represents compassion and an open heart. Perhaps that is why we are craving this color right now...

For just a hint of this lovely color, Lou Rota makes these amazingly Rocking Granny china plates. You can get yourself some at Not On The High Street.

Ready to commit, well first answer us this, Are you as bad ass girly girl as the one and only Betsey Johnson? If you have answered "YES!!" to that question... Can we meet you and be your friends? A yes answer also allows you to live in a all pink super chic world like Miss Johnson herself!

The photo above and this one bellow of Betsey Johnson's apartment are both proof that all pink decor when done right, is super swoon worthy and jealousy inducing!

Can you believe that you never thought of this before? And we always thought we had such a way with flower arranging...

Amazing loosey goosey Peony flowers in a mason jar... with coffee beans!!!!

(Yep we feel it deserved four exclamation points, its that good.)

Now if only one of our closest friends would hurry up and either get married or have a baby girl we could use this flower arrangement at their shower...

Look at your wall.... Is it looking a little bare? Do you need a little Umph? (Yes it is a real word, we think), then how about this simply adorable pink print from artist Faroush? You can grab yours over on Etsy.

Now while we have seen this saying on a print before... We are super big fans of this version... Love the little white scalloped border and the black needle, it is so Cinderella and her mice.

Looking for more of a pop? Another Etsy find... JohnWGolden has these pop art, tough girl converse on a pink background. We would hang this one right in the bathroom... We know that may not sound like the biggest compliment, but to us it is... Right over the toilet is a place of honor... It sets the tone for your house's style. Plus everyone will see it!

Leave it to Kelly W. to be way ahead of the crowd. When we first saw her guest house in Domino we were a little confused, she had changed up her style on us.. But of course she found a great new one...

Oh, how we covet this tableaux! Oh, how we wish this was our room! The painting, the brass lamp, the amethyst encrusted box.. Perfection!

Look close our loves, and you will see that this beautiful bride is wearing a blush toned wedding gown... Do word exist to say how much we heart that? No.

Another super beautiful lineup of pink comes in this pretty photo from one of our most fave sites, Decor 8.

So pretty.

And this delicious and pretty pink cake would make any birthday girl smile.

These stairs are what inspired this post.. Although I am sad to say that I have had this picture on my computer for so long floating around in my "Inspiration" folder, that I don't remember where I found it. :(

But, I do know that the combination of pink and white stairs plus the super cute Mama and Baby in the background make me really happy.

This baby pink wall with antique mirrors also makes me really happy! Check out that light pink velvet tufted sofa... N.K.Y I wish I knew who made it, I would try and get you a red one!

Another really pretty flower arrangement we found on the beautiful site All Things Lovely. We heart the mercury glass vase and the pretty pink Ranunculus.

Even in little pops pink can always make yo smile, can always make you feel calm and happy.

Open your heart and let a little pink in to your world.

Fashion Friday: She's got legs!

As the weather is cooling down our blood is heating up for tights! 

We just can't seem to get enough of these wonderful little leg warmers. 

No not those kind of leg warmers... We are talking about the super sexy kind. 

Who says you have to put all your mini dresses away when summer ends? Not us, we say bring on the tights and make the hemlines even shorter! 

For super basic yumminess (PLUS U.S made...) go to American Apparel. They have a ton of colors and styles to choose from and their opaque is pretty opaque. 

Also great for opaque basics, and really those are the ones we use day in and day out, try Urban Outfitters, and also Wolford... Wolford are pricey but rumored to be the best of the best. 

But sometimes a girl is looking for something a little more risque, and that is when you pull out the super sexy lace stockings we are simply hearting right now. 

Aaggghhhh! Chanel! Coco! No how could you treat us so badly? we died when we saw these lace fronted tights.. But they are a little out of our price range... But they are dreamy. 

Speaking of dreams, these stockings from Wolford will make your fella think he is dreaming! 

We have been loving our opaque black thick tights for so long now, that these sexy sheer lacy numbers are really exciting for us. 

It is like a whole new world is opening up for our gams... 

The sheer black stockings with the little hearts have our names written all over them. Betsy Johnson, thank you! The sweet little lacy bow tights are from Top Shop and although they don't have this style any more they have soooo many great ones. 

Now pretend that the styling in this photo was different, and that these ladies were not wearing ugh... sensible shoes... These lace tights are really pretty!

Can you believe they are made by Spax? so no jiggle or wiggle when you pair them with your fancy short-shorts!

Bright tights can make such a statement. We love them paired with a simple short black dress.

These pink patterned Trina Turk tights are the perfect mixture of color and pattern!

But we are super dying for the delicate lacework and they grey on grey action in this photo! 

Betsy Johnson does it again with these stunning tights!

In fact, she does it so well she just may be the queen of tights... 

Nope scratch that, the queen of tights is alive and well on the Upper East side. 

We leave you with these inspiration images of Blair Waldorf working tights in all the right ways. 

Powder blue ruffles and patterned lace work navy tights... No wonder "Little J" looked up to her! 

Hot pink tights, some how manage to look classy and right on the Queen B. 

And even with a broken heart, (screw you Chuck Bass-hole!)

Blair manages to steal the show in her unexpected chevron tights. 

 

And finally true love, if true love exists with an outfit. 

lovely layers of lace and tweed!

Pure perfection. 

Wrap your legs in something beautiful!

Fashion Friday: We heart rockin' the wedgie...well wedges (sandals not underwear malfunctions)

Hey lovelies...need a hot sexy shoe that's easy to wear, fun to walk in, make your gams look a mile long and won't kill your tooties like a stiletto?... Well you have come to the right place!

For $19.99 we can make you and your legs and outfit look like a million bucks... just 3 easy payments of $9.99...

Ooops... sorry waay too much late night tv... we digress... ;)

But seriously we meant the first part whole heartedly.  There is really only one shoe out there that can do all of that and even spice up your cuteness on top of all the others...oohhh and this amazing all in 1 shoe does one more thing too... you can wear it day or night with out looking like a street walker.  

Wow!  Still interested?  We are too ...so read on for the amazing...never out done...funtastic Wedge heel!  

VA

In the sea of beautiful wedge platform sandals, we bring you a select few for your viewing and shopping pleasure.  

Normal and  cute but still hot wedges are suuuuper easy to find... go in any shoe store big or small and you will undoubtedly score a pair at any price.  But finding a wedge that is show stopping and outfit making, and hot and sexy and sooo great every girl will be uber jealous in a good way is a whole different thing.  We are here for you.  

But be careful..mistakes are easily made.  Read on how to do a Wedge right...

TGIS (Thank God its Summer) cuz rocking any of these beauties is easy and fun in the sun! 

First up..these yummies just scream please take me home and let me make every single outfit you own up a notch.  Thank you Michael Kors for these ridiculously cute Danger wedge. The amazing bright patent yellow will add that extra ooomph to anything.  
How sexy is that toe and um...wow... that cut out in the heel will make anyone drool and faun over your cuteness!

And if you are just a tee shirt and jeans gal, these will make the entire outfit.  Easy peasy but soooo cute! But pair with shorts and a drape tee and you are on a whole other level of radness.

Really Marc Jacobs, really?  Come one really?  A HEART cut out wedge heel?  
Whaattt!  Wow. Mr. Cutie Bean Jacobs and his team have created a beautiful strappy nude wedge with the most fantasmic heart heel.  There are no words...none except find us these! 

These may be on the more shmancy side (not because they are Marc) but the nude strappy front and delicate (HEART...sorry it's soo good) heel are really best suited for a night on the town... on a special date, paired with a bright colored mini dress or maybe even under a wedding dress!  Right????  They are actually like a beautiful Mullet...they are the definition of business in the front and party in the back. 

Watch out Spice Posh... you do not need a 5-6 inch spike heel to be fierce (we never thought we would use that word here). These gorgeous, architecturally perfect Guiseppe Zanotti wedges are soooo great!  
The gladiator front is perf and will just wrap your hot legs in love.  But then...surprise!  Turn to the side and wow!  Grab a drapey LBD or a super cute white sundress and pair with these and you are instantly chic and RTG!

These maybe a little tough in the day time (but day time party these could work) due to the super exaggerated heel (sorry, I know we said day and night...but these were too yummy to not post)

OMG the cuteness that is Harajuku Lovers!  

Kelly Green, espadrille heel, nude ankle wrap uber high wedge?!?!?!   YES!  These were actually the inspiration for this post.  We were lucky to get a sneak peak at the H.L. for Kitson Summer windows and were super excited at all the crazy cute platform wedges they had.  

How great would these look paired with denim cut offs and a casual tank.  

"Wow..look at how hot and tall that girl is.. she's sooo cute and put together!"  But see...no one will know it is only because of the cuteness of these shoes.  Take them off and you are just another beauty in cut offs...but once they are on, you are uber!

Oh and these come in all black..yum and a suuuper fun version with a sunglass heart on the toe too! TDF!!! (To Die For)

OK, but you may saying... yes T.W.H. gals, I do like a wedge...but I am a lil' tougher than those other wedges.  I like things with more of a fashiony edge.  I'm a little over cute and pretty but I still lurve a trend. 

Have no fear...here are the ones we have been waiting to share with you... the piece de resistance....

The all in 1...Sweet Life by Dolce Vita wedge, gladiator, bootie, cut out lace up ...umm I guess shoe?  

So hot, sooo bad its good, soooo wrong its amazingly right, yummy and super naughty but totally wearable!  

These will go with literally anything and spice the crap out of it ;). Leggins and drapey tank? Yes.  Skinny jeans and a tee? YES.  Flowy sundress. Yes please. Shorts and any shirt. Um YES! Try any combo and these crazy wedges will do the trick.

Need a great, fun, sexy wedge that will actually be your go to heel?  The boys will drool and p.s. so will the girls when you rock these Betsy Johnson wedges.  OOOHHH! I actually felt a flutter when I saw these and just got super excited as I was typing... 

Hello cuteness to the 3rd power!!!!  

Only BJ (hee hee) could do these and make them oh so wearable.  Snake detail, striped bow front, painted raffia wedge are sooo cute it hurts! 

Dear Betsey... why are you sooo rad?  Imagine wearing these with skinny dark jeans and a cute tee and cardigan!  The most simple uniform for us girls but these will make it into a must do and much repeated go to outfit. 

 I feel my credit card crying.  SHHHH...Visa...shhh.  These are worth it!  Visa you know how much we heart bows and snake and totally wearable shoes...PLEASE give us a break!  We promise we will wear these a lot and they will go with anything!

Oh and P.S. the light almost nude ankle strap won't cut off your gorgeous gams...

So please, oh please have fun with this trend.  Try to steer clear of the safe wedges and go for fun!  We promise it will be worth it.

P.S. Aldo has our some of our safer favs right now... go here to see and so does Vic Secret and Steve Madden for our hot recessionistas... oooh and so does Bakers!

P.P.S. Here are some examples of what wedges are No Bueno! But we are sure you already know... but just in case you forgot

DITTO

So get out there, get a wedge, show off your legs that you work soo hard on and say screw you stilettos!
