Rediscovering Tracey Porter

I have to admit that I might be the last person on the block to discover that Tracey Porter, bohemian interior designer extrordinaire, now offers both clothing and jewelry. A few of my newly discovered favorites from her website. You can ditch the guilt too, with up to 70% off-feel free to fall in love!

So that’s why they call it the Golden Globes!

Ok- I can’t resist making a comment about the attire at the Golden Globe awards last night. I admit to being somewhat of an awards ceremony addict (any night I can curl up on the couch with a Bloomacious Belini is a night to look forward to). This year the fashion was a bit strange for me-it was as if the AFPA issued a memo saying “We suggest you wear a strapless, belted frock-but if that doesn’t suit you, wear something devoid of color.” Yuck!

There were of course a few notable exceptions. For me, Drew Barrymore was the belle of the ball (despite Christina Applegate’s nod to Beauty and the Beast, with her butter yellow frock). I think that Drew should be awarded the Most Improved Overall Look award-given last years appearance. While I loved the green color she wore in 2007 (2008 awards were cancelled due to the writer's strike), the fit was atrocious-and I am glad she has returned to the land of the blonde!

The lovely Linda Darnell

I’m pretty sure at this point that I was born in the wrong decade given my fascination with vintage design. I have blogged almost non-stop at IndDecor about my love for vintage looking accessories and shoes. These pieces are my current favorites. The Greta at Love Lu Lu Mae is a fabulous looking headband featuring pheasant feathers and a vintage brooch accent. The other piece, from House of Telsa on Etsy uses my current favorite color combo: silver and yellow. Also try Ban.do for an amazing assortment of headbands and hair accessories-each piece is a work of art!

Now, if I only had some place to wear one……

Your Slip is Showing!

InStyle magazine featured these delicious little meant- to- be- shown- off slips in the recently published  January issue. While the men’s wear for women trend is holding steady (or even gaining strength?)-  I love these super girly pieces to accent any plain old dress. I want them all!

Ready, Set, Go!

What better time to start a new blog than the month of January? This is my second blog-the first of which is devoted to interior design. I just can't seem to stop writing about fashion though, which is why I created Spade and Jane. This space will be devoted to fabulous designs and designers, trends, cosmetics and all that makes us lovely! I hope you enjoy visiting, and I would love to hear from you!
