Who Wore It Better? Thakoon Red and Purple Print Dress I wonder if Julianne saw Michelle Obama in her Thakoon red and purple print dress when she wore it at the Democratic National Convention. Needless to say, it's a cute little shift — from Thakoon's '09 Resort collection — appropriate for both political functions and film festivals, where Julianne wore a shorter hem version. It is a surprisingly versatile dress, but who rocked it?
When I spotted this exquisite laptop bag on Trendhunter, I thought wow, finally a bag that's unique, chic and sure enough—straight from Europe! Dutch designer Fab has created these fashionable handmade leather laptop bags which come in a variety of styles and colors. They've also got adorable wallets, purses and belts to match the bags. Unfortunately, the entire website is in Dutch, and the designs are made in Amsterdam, so there's little chance I'll be getting one anytime soon. Although I can tell you this, they cost $292 each which is quite expensive, but considering how fabulous they are, I just can't be a hater!
Everyone loves a great apron, but have you ever thought about your oven mitt? An oven mitt is a fantastic way to spruce up your kitchen with a little bit of whimsy and a lot of flair.
I came across these three beautiful oven mitts at the Curiosity Shoppe. They're $25 a piece, and were created by the folks at Deadly Squire (although how anything so cute could come from something called "deadly" is beyond me). They've also got matching pot holders for $20.
If branches and birds aren't your style, check out these hot dot oven mitts and pot holders at Chiasso. They range from $12-$18.
