Change and evolvement is essential these days…it’s what keeps us “spirited” and “young at heart”.

Our “change” will begin in Raleigh in 2011. We will start a new journey as “Gypsy Jule”. All of the exciting details to follow…we can’t wait to invite you to our new space….it’s gonna be great!!!

Until then…remember to stray from the beaten path, spread good karma…AND hang some colorful lights!!

One of the best little items that a girl can keep at home, in the office and in the purse/briefcase is Hollywood Fashion Tape.  This is quitely simply double sided sticky tape that is meant for clothing and skin.

It works miracles!….Try taping your bra straps to a sundress or other top so that they don’t peek out.  Maybe your blouse is a little too deep for the office…a little fashion tape in the right cleavage area and voila!….

your top becomes modest.  It also works great to hold a blouse that is gapping or an emergency hemline fix!

Hollywood Fashion Tape® is the easy-to-use, clear double-stick, “do everything” apparel and body tape!

Hollywood Fashion Tape’s specially formulated adhesive is gentle on skin, hypoallergenic and leaves no residue on fabrics.  The clear tape doesn’t cover up the skin’s natural color and is more discreet and fabric-friendly than safety pins.

How does it work?  You get 36 pre-cut, 3-inch disposable strips (3” x ½” actual size) in each box. Each strip of tape contains a removable backing on each side. You simply peel the backing from one side of the tape, press the tape firmly to your skin or fabric, remove the other backing, and apply the item to be secured.  It’s as easy as peel, stick and go!

All the big box stores are finding a way to “out do” the other by holding sales events at crazy hours….thus driving the Black Friday masses to go to great lengths to participate in these “special sales events”.

Maybe that’s not where the “real” action is…maybe the “real” action is in the privately owned business down the street that TRULY has some good deals going on….and will certainly be appreciative of your hard earned dollars.

Maybe we should start an anti-black friday club?…naahh…it would never work…let the masses go to the big box….then the rest of us can really enjoy our moments at our favorite places!

cheers!

Here’s a classic style that will allow you to completely consume the office holiday cocktail party.   A rich deep purple and a modest cut, but yet contemporary fit, every girl will wanna know “where did you find that?”

Purple Cocktail dress

I can just see this paired with black tights and killer heels…a little silver/black glitter purse and voila!

And for the little less formal event…I’m loving this one…

Cocktail or Party Dress

With just the right amount of studded hardware detail…How about a black faux leather jacket or black blazer with this?

Best of all…these dresses are affordable and under $100

Let the parties begin!!

UGG Bailey Button

Of Course,  all boots in the Classic Bailey  Button  Collection feature a soft foam insole covered with genuine sheepskin and have a molded EVA light and flexible outsole designed for amazing comfort with every step.

All the classic colors are available and a few that are definitely “not so classic”…. 

UGG Bailey Button

This style tends to run a size large. We recommend ordering a size smaller from your typical shoe size. If you are in-between sizes, we recommend ordering one-half size down.

But to most, the boots will remain in their heart. With styles for every occasion (from the chic cardy to the basic short boot) you really can’t go wrong with going UGG.

My pick? The Classic Cardy in black. It won’t keep your feet as warm as the boot might, but the knit outer is just so fun! I love the detail and I know I can get away with wearing it throughout almost any weather in North Carolina (okay, except for those 99 degree days we had this summer).
