great Website- REAL discounts!

I just found a new online store that offers REAL discounts in brand-name pieces. The name is Beyond the Rack, and they call themselves a private shopping club, which means you have to be invited and sign up for an account. Then, they will send you the sale of the day.

Sales last a couple of days only, and they offer clothes, shoes, jewelry, etc.
Believe me, it is fun and easy.

I haven't returned anything, but I know they will only return for credit in the store. I wish they will give money back, but I guess they are starting and have to make sure they make a profit. I recommend you to sign in now, when they offer real discounts. Usually this sites get some "fame" and start being greedier.

Use this invitation code: NAR2F062735 to see if we can win a shopping spree, we will have fun shopping together!!!

Feeling ready for Fall Fashion

one-shoulder

Fall Fashion is AMAZING! That's why Vogue becomes encyclopedic for their September issue. Us TEENSIZERS start feeling more confident as we forgot summer dresses and become glamorous and gorgeous.

I am feeling ready for graphic styles and color blocking. It is time for a modern and personal twist. We will start putting together some looks, and we already talked about the season's palette, in the mean time, let's start doing some shopping!

Two styles that are strongly coming back for the season: stripes(that can look good even horizontally, if you know how to use them) and one-shoulder tops, which I LOVE!!!!!!!!!!! They are fun and sexy, and the diagonal line elongates the torso and neckline, it works for almost anybody.

So, to begin with, check out Old Navy's $10 Fall Sale they've got some really good pieces.

And don't forget to subscribe to our email or RSS, I will be checking out stores and posting on the spot... We don't want to miss those sales!!!

Season's Palette II, Fall 09




Continuing our conversation about color palettes, now we know where they come from. The good news, this Fall's palettes are simply gorgeous! so elegant and classy.
Grey is coming really strong, which is wonderful since there are many shades to choose from. Some tips to keep in mind:

1.- I highly recommend to use a darker shade as the main color in your wardrobe (especial to those of use who love to wear black). Darker shades are more flattering to a wider variety of skin tones, and great for us, the TEENSIZERS!

2.- If you are very fair, be careful wearing a too-light shade of gray, it is a great color, but it can't make you look washed-out.

3.- Combine different shades in one outfit (matchy-matchy is so PASSE), we don't want to look like a walking stainless steel appliance.

4.- Use pops of colors to bring live to falls hues. I love them, but we cannot allow them to be depressing.

And that brings me to two of the most relevant complimentary colors for the season: Purple and Ochre/Chartreuse (think Shrek with hepatitis). We will go deeper into this topic, but for know check the nail polish palette proposed by Real Simple magazine. Isn't it great?!
