Feb 28.11 / Lindsay
I love the “Buy Now” button as much as the next avid shoe/bag/dress-lover. Trust me, there was a time in my life when I was swimming in cash (& debt, ahem) when I would surf Zappos.com and just chuck whatever looked like it had a heel into my shopping cart. That being said, I never [...]
Alice + Olivia: Separate Eccentricities
Feb 15.11 / Jennifer Nicole
The twenties were in full roaring fashion during the presentation of Alice + Olivia’s Fall 2011 collection. As much as I love the twenties – in fact, I’m a sucker for them – I couldn’t help but cringe at some of the more…direct interpretations, of both the roaring twenties and the colorful, suede-boot-filled seventies. (Click [...]
Sponsor Spotlight: Smashion!
Feb 15.11 / Lindsay
Not only was that a clear and direct title, I also heavily enjoyed the alliteration. Anyway! I’d like to introduce all of you to B&B’s newest sponsor, and your newest addiction: Smashion.

Nary Manivong, known for his solo fashion line, met Ally Hilfiger (daughter of Tommy) in 2008. They instantly clicked. After having Ally style two of his fashion shows last year, Manivog joined forces with Hilfiger to create a new line, NAHM. To debut their new line, NAHM chose to focus on a single element of [...]
The Streets
Feb 11.11 / Lindsay
The Streets captures style from around the globe, and before now, Seattle was sadly left off the map by most street style blogs. Jennifer Nicole and I are proud to rep’ our city as best we can, from week to week. Our first installment only has three beauties to report, but we blame it on [...]
Get In My Pocket
Dec 28.10 / Lindsay
Once upon a time, one of my favorite things to say to people was “Get in my pocket!” Best used when someone is being very adorable, very naive, or if you like to talk to your keys before heading out the door. As the temperature on the west coast drops (some areas more than others [...]

What A Lovely Way to Burn
Dec 03.10 / Lindsay
You’ll have to excuse the lack of posts this week… We started off with such a bang (ShopBop’s $100 Giveaway!) and then kind of fizzled. I HAVE AN EXCUSE. A GREAT ONE. I have a fever. I caught whatever Sal has through osmosis. I had an awesome outfit planned for the first day that I [...]
