‘Cause You Can Never Have Too Many…
Five new boutiques have been added to both the “You are Cordially Invited” and “Private Sale Designer Boutique Schedules“ cover stories. The “You are Cordially Invited” cover story has also been updated with my current thoughts on all the boutiques and my experiences shopping with them.
These are the five new boutiques which have been added:
Gilt Fuse: Gilt Fuse is the edgier side of the Gilt Groupe and runs fashion-forward boutique sales from such houses as Juicy Couture, Design History and Guess, to name but a few.
Enviius: Enviius is a Canadian-based private sale designer boutique (and yes, they ship to the U.S.). They were on my list previously but I removed them when their sales were few and far between. Lately they’ve been stepping things up again, so they’ve earned their spot back!
The Fairest: This is a relatively new private sale boutique to me, they specialize in skin care and cosmetics. I can’t wait to try them out! You need to contact me so I can send you an invitation to join.
reverse: Reverse is a private sale boutique that specializes in trendy designer clothing and accessories. They’ve been on the “You are Cordially Invited” page all along, but were just added to the “Private Sale Designer Boutique Schedules” cover story.
row|nine: RowNine is another private sale designer boutique that is very new to me. They specialize in luxury jewelry, watches, leather goods and accessories, all at 30 – 80% off retail prices. They also offer luxury concierge services!

Armadillo Angst
Apparently a few models are abdicating the Alexander McQueen throne and are refusing to walk the catwalk in his treacherous armadillo shoes, and McQueen is declaring “Off with their heads!” in return. I mean really, who can blame them? Not only are they dangerous, they gotta weigh more than the models who are expected to wear ‘em.

Head Like a Heart
Oh, this is SO COOL! Editor’s Closet, one of my fav private sale boutiques, is selling designer puppies! No, I’m kidding, they are having a pet adoption event in association with Katherine Heigl! They have many puppies and kitties “listed” at associated adoption centers in New York and LA that need a new home, along with information about each one. And check out Biscuit below, he’s available for adoption in LA. His head is shaped like heart! How cute is that???

Puppies so rock. I think I need to add a fifth to my household!

The Implications for Cinderella? Devastating.
How friggin’ KEWL are these? My husband just told me I could buy a pair if I promised not to lose them.

Can you imagine trying to keep them clean, tho? You’d have to carry Windex in your handbag along with everything else you just might need. Oh wait… I probably already do.

OK, I am DYIN’ here! :’D
Regretsy. Where bad Etsy crafters go to die.
Be forewarned… if it’s on Etsy and is offensive, ugly or smutty, Regretsy *will* find it and possibly make it even worse. Love that!
I wonder if Helen Thomas has been clued in on this yet :x
No, seriously… this might be almost as insanely funny as Cake Wrecks.
