A Shade of Jade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jade nail polish is what's hot in nail lacquer for fall! Chanel introduced it's Jade Collection this summer and it was all over the fall runway! Of course the colors are hard to come by, unless you are willing to shell out $90 bucks on Ebay...Not! So in the meantime, try these lovely shades of green on instead(and at a much more affordable cost): First up...Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Vintage Mint Green(yummy) or for a more neon approach, Face Stockholm's # 69 or my favorite by OPI's new Matte collection Gargantuan Green Grape at the best price yet of $8.50 or even cheaper if you search hard enough! Either way, you are sure to make a green statement in your new shade of Jade!!!!

High Expectations...Over the Knee Boots!

Fall fashion is in full-effect!!! What's hot now in footwear...Over the top. Over the Knee Boots!!! Not mid knee, but sky thigh! Knee boots are one of the most coveted trends for Fall09! What I'm digging are the knee high, flat boot! Try it in suede or distressed leather! Pair your boot with a peasant style, bohemian, frock, tailored shorts, or when all else fails, throw them on with your skinny or straight legged jean! You are sure to come out on top! Bloomies and Nordstrom currently carry some of the hottest looks in OTKB(not to be confused with NKOTB) both of which are making a comeback for fall! Try on styles from Dolce Vita to Marc by Marc Jacobs! From high end to low, you are sure to find a pair that works with your budget!

Featuring updates on beloved basics, Patterson J. Kincaid adds unexpected twists to classic shapes, seamlessly blending simplicity and novelty.
