April Showers: Umbrella Shopping

By -
When I went to Italy, I loved getting caught in the rain. The umbrella salesman seemed to sprout from the cobblestone as soon as the first few raindrops dropped. Sadly, Italian umbrella salesman don't pop up everywhere rain falls down so we have to come prepared with our own umbrellas. The upside is we get to pick out really cute ones when we buy before the rain comes.Pictured:
Critter Owl Umbrella, Target, $16.99
Polka Dot Umbrella, pare*umbrella, $65
Monet Waterlilies Umbrella, Raindrops, $45
Venice Umbrella, Cool Stuff Express, $19.99

Pictured:
Italian Lace Umbrella, The Met Store, $20
Clear Bubble Umbrella, Target, $16.99
Scenic Paris Umbrella, Raindrops, $125
Spring Yard Pagoda Umbrella, pare*umbrella, $80

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

Sweet Sleep Bra

I've been waiting Anthropologie's ruffled bra and panty set to go on sale. What it lacks in the sex appeal of Anya's retro ensemble , it makes up for in cute ribbons and ruffles. The set is available in cream and pink , rose and black, or grey and black , but I prefer the dark of the latter to offset the sweetness of the look. The bra was $58, which is silly for a cotton, wireless sleep bra, but the price has dropped to $29.95. That's at least worth thinking about. $30 for panties , however, is still laughable.
