Lucky Magazine: August 2006

On the Cover: Amy Smart...I love her! (my boyfriend would tell you it is only because she is blonde) She is just adorable!


an issue full of denim, dresses, & shoes ...ha my favorites! i loved the "all you need" beauty tips...i am not a morning person and i'm always rushed during the work week so i'm always looking to downsize my beauty routine. this issue gets an A+...

loving the laid back california style:

james perse tees, red platforms from aldo, ysl sunglasses, a gorgeous blue balanciaga hobo, & a lovely robindra unsworth necklace...yes please!


peter pollar blouses & how too look chic not stuffy:



chain details: i love it all but esp. the jersey dress!



tie-neck blouses for good old sophisticated fun:


white belts--how to make it work:


i love how the "cute girl" (honestly, no name?) styled her white belt over a little black dress!


dressy platforms:

i also loved the contrast platforms!


now & later:

they have several different looks styled for both the warmer & cooler months. i happen to love how they styled this gap sweater vest/tunic. it is so perfect i might actually buy a sweater vest from the gap (gasp!)

dress obsessed:

40s inspired dresses; empire jersey dresses; 60s inspired dresses; knit dresses; blouson slip dresses

my favorites:
'40s retro:


empire-waist jersey:

(i have a similar dress in red!)

blouson slip:



how to wear sparkle:


this delicate sparkle vest over the striped tunic is too cute to ignore!

the denim guide: cropped, flare, stovepipes, denim jackets, & knee length skirts...

cropped jeans


this seasons cropped jeans are chic...no frays, perfect for a pretty blouse & colorful heels!
knee-length denim skirts:


the perfect transition into fall...a denim pencil skirt can look effortlessly chic if you just leave the flip flops at home

denim jacket:

i love the cropped, rounded collar jacket on the top right...it is unique and is the perfect layering piece!

stovepipes:


work them with heels...

i want this adorable red wool mini dress:


April May, a fabulous new line created by former Paul & Joe designer Diane Goldstein:

tie front socks are also interesting!

wenlan chia from twinkle by wenlan's picks (check out her totally cool website!):


adorable prints, & fabulously designed items!

japanese toy stores:


packaging is key; also a useful tip on sending flowers!

brit & sweet:


i love it all!

stationery finds:


foxy & winston check out their colorful animal & botantical prints!
sesame letterpress the go to people for fabulous letterpress work!

floral kimono print dresses:

I'm also an Amy Smart fan. I wish she would make more comedies. She has great comic timing.
