I’ve decided on the outfit for this party. Worn it before and lots of compliments and it’s funky but not overdone. At the top of my Blog page, left click on About. There’s a picture of me wearing the outfit. You can also click on Contact if you have any questions or comments. More later ……….!
There’s a delay with traveling from Naples, Florida, to Los Angeles, California. More to come; keep posted! Sign up and you get an e-mail when there’s a new message.
Okay fans, it’s getting down to serious business. The outfits are tentatively put together with accessories and I have to go through the motions to think and pack. I’ve heard there are more surprises for me with Grammy nominees and I’m excited for the opportunity.
Keep posted! Sign up if you haven’t already!
Yours in excitement, Lisa Rae
While at Dillards at the Coastland Center in Naples, Florida, I stopped to look at the Ralph Lauren collection that features a beautiful shade of pink. Check out these outfits. I believe there’s an item or two that will pack well for your Spring Break trip or cruise!
Love the white blouse too. Interesting detail on the back to set it apart from your other blouses.
Great Jacket! Blouse will brighten your face!
Nice grouping. Fun dress!
A chic, head-turning silk look crafted with wide pleating below the waist that adds dimension and drama to the skirt. Princess seaming adds a tailored finish.
A week or so ago I blogged about keeping an open attitude when shopping. Some consumers think they can only go to Nordstrom, Macy’s, Target or they wouldn’t think of setting foot in Neiman Marcus, Saks or boutiques because they think they won’t be able to afford anything in the store. I explained this was a misconception and very limiting. If you’re a smart shopper, you’ll find beautiful clothing to fit your budget, everywhere. There are no stores off-limits for this gal!! I always look to see what the stores have to offer. Shopping from Target to Bergdorf Goodman and in between is a great way to expand your selections.
Case in point: Today I received an e-mail from Saks Fifth Avenue about a super sale. And here it is! The dress I’m wearing to the Grammy Awards! Now if you left click on the hyperlink I have above (Fortune Cookie Dress) (always underlined) you’ll see how super the sale is! (Darn for me, oh well). I tried the dress on again yesterday and it’s a winner. Now I’m probably 5 inches shorter than the model and the waist fits me at my natural waist, where here I think it looks a little high-waisted. Regardless of the price, I think it’s fabulous. Now I’d rather have paid the super sale price but this just goes to show ………
Left click on Christian Louboutin at Saks. Saks is working hard to bring the merchandise to us, on line, where we have a better feel for the items and how they would look. Love it!
I started on a project today and Grammy fever took over. Two hours later, I have outfits together, but my bedroom and dressing area look like I was hit by a hurricane!
The dress I’m wearing for Grammy night is from alice + olivia. Stacey Bendet started a great line and I find myself purchasing more and more of this NY native’s designs when I’m looking for something fun. I’ll wear this glamorous little black dress with sheer dot stockings by BCBG and Dior high heels. Accessories: Lori Bonn earrings; bracelets-one being a purple enameled cuff by Kara Ross; eggplant headband with a big rhinestone in the middle of 5” feathers; purple Prada evening bag. Nars makeup and Estee Lauder Black Amethyst nail polish will complete the outfit.
For the flight to LA and a lunch on Saturday, I’m wearing a fuchsia DVF dress with Stuart Weitzman bone heels. I’ll use the same shoes with a black sexy number from INC for Saturday night. Friday night I have a dress from Free People, wearing with patterned tights from Juicy Couture and Michael by Michael Kors Beverly Sandals in genuine snake. Earrings and bracelets by John Hardy.
I’ll be adding to the pile as I think of things the next few days. I’m determined to have one medium size bag. We’ll see!
Meanwhile, it’s stopped raining in Los Angeles. Let’s hope we have dry weather for the Red Carpet!

Gals have different needs when it comes to travel and I picked out a few of my favs. If you have an unlimited budget and luggage, go for all five!
This Prada navy shoulder bag is my #1 pick for everyday activity. It will be light-weight on the shoulder, zip top, zip pocket, easy to handle. Navy is good if you don’t want to stand out in a crowd, and with Prada, it’s always a winner.

This is definitely more fun for daytime adventures. I like the fuchsia color and Dior logo charm. The wooden-silvertone handles add to the bag’s interest. It appears to have metal feet, which is always a plus for keeping the bag clean. The tote shape is conducive to carrying small trinkets you acquire along your way.

This is all about the look and luxury of Lanvin. This is artwork to me and carrying around your essentials is secondary. Beautiful!

Valentino gives us beautiful bags. This is a good bag for lunch, shopping afterward, a fun evening out. Great color. Will dress up anything you wear.

You need the evening bag that will go anywhere. This is it in my book! It works for a nice lunch too. And get this: A detachable chain shoulder strap that you can wear as a necklace! Your shoulder bag becomes a necklace and clutch! So clever, Miu Miu!
Miu Miu Crystal-Strap Shoulder Bag
If I could only take two bags, (it’s tough to choose), I’d pick the Prada for daytime and casual nights; the Miu Miu for fancy day and night events.
As always, I provide Hyperlinks to take you directly to the site for further inquiry. Left Click on the bag name and drool! Fun-fun-fun!
I’m starting to get pumped about the Grammy Awards! Eight days until I land at LAX! I’ll need to concentrate on the “wardrobe” and put my outfits together this weekend. I’ve been mulling it around for a while and I think I have it down.
Here is a great party dress. Check out the site. Bergdorf Goodman is having a super on-line sale and you may find just what you’re looking for!
