All you need is Earrings…
If we could choose just one rule to shop by, it would be simple garments & abundant accessories. One simple quality dress like this fab BCBG Marike One Shoulder can be instantly transformed to match any mood with nothing more than the right pair of earrings. This is just one of the reasons that we love to fill our closets with jewel designers like the fabulous Emma Stine who offers a bevy of styles at prices like $18 & $38! We know…no words. We feel the same way. Check out the rest of Stine’s collection on her site, emmastine.com and be sure to enter the code “Love” at checkout for guilt-free shopping (the designer is not only giving you 10% off but donating 10% to benefit Japan with each purchase!)

Rachel Zoe named THR’s Most Powerful Stylist

Our beloved Rachel Zoe not only graces the cover of The Hollywood Reporter looking unbelievably radiant and extremely pregnant, she shows off her gorgeous growing figure inside the mag as she is honored with their “Most Powerful Stylist” title. Here’s a bit of what she had to say:
On her daring fashion choices: “When you’re a creative person, whether you design clothing or homes, your brain is constantly moving. What is beautiful? What gets you going? I have a 99 percent accuracy rate on my gut. I wish I could be that good with people. But projects, I’m pretty right-on about.”
On how powerful she feels: “Oprah is power — she is everything. Martha [Stewart], she can make a house out of a piece of paper. I have incredible respect for women like that because it’s not easy. People fight you every step of the way — they pull you down as soon as you get up. And the reality is, it’s harder for women. It’s like if a girl has fooled around with a lot of guys, she’s a slut. But if guys do it, they’re cool.”
On Jennifer Garner as her first celebrity client: “It was so much work, and I was so nervous, but it was incredible making a woman feel that beautiful. Jen and I started this love affair after that.”
On her pregnancy: “I can say in all honesty that being pregnant, working with the kind of people I work with and being this businesswoman has been a really wonderful, drama-free time in my life.”
