Shoes

What do new shoe designs have to do with dial pack birth control packaging? Tough question. The answer is Martha Davis. Davis, an industrial designer designed the dial pack birth control packaging for Johnson & Johnson over 20 years ago.
Davis has never been able to find the perfect shoe, and as a lover of shoes, it was important to find shoes that were stylish, yet practical. So what did she do? She went to Milan and took courses in shoe design.
Her shoes are made with glove leather, which as you know is incredible soft and luxurious to touch. Her soles are strong and sturdy but look light and delicate. No step-ladder high heels for her collections: her shoes are made to be comfortable so that they can be worn all day.
Davis succeeds in making the Modernist movement, usually associated with severity, look more feminine. And while there's this slice of the past in the design, they never look discernibly retro.

Two of the leading online clothes stores are currently having sales, with many items in all sections of the site with at least 20% off. For those of us shopping on a budget, we thought we would take the opportunity to let you know where to get the deals!
Asos
A website which prides itself in its extensive range of all the high street brands, as well as a choice of many designer dresses. Sale items shift quickly here, and while it can often be tricky to find what you want in your size it's always wrth the look.

All Saints
Anyone who knows their high street fashion will know that All Saints are a store which, unless you have just recently hit a windfall, you need to shop in sparingly. Its prices are the highest you will find at its level, and to be honest we often wonder why. However, when they have an online sale it is hard to resist, as they always have at least one item worth saving for.

The shirt on your back Busy with Style
With fall approaching soon, we should be thinking on readying our less-hot weather clothes, so that we don't find ourselves (once again!) in a nothing-to-wear position. One of the basic clothing items every working gal should have in her closet is the white shirt, of course, so I give you three different ones to choose from: The first shirt is Bebe ruffled drape sleeve blouse, perfect for those more sassy among [...] Read More
A twisted white shirt Busy with Style
A gal can never have too many shoes, but the same goes for shirts or blouses too. Just think about it - if you have one trousers, one skirt and seven different blouses, no one will never notice. So, in my opinion, shirts are the core item in every wardrobe. But, as our story usually goes, it's also very fun to twist the basics, and the Vivianne Westwood Monday Blouse is [...] Read More

I like this blouse because it can be easily worn with almost all of my jackets and suits. It would look good with pants or skirts and, even better, it is rather fashionable because of the [...] Read More
Accessories Never Take a Back Seat Pretty Things
I have to say that I am a graphic girl - I love graphic tees. I love that when you slip it on, you're making a statement. This statement doesn't mean that you don't need to wear accessories. I have always felt that a large graphic such as the one provided by our friends at VJUCool who is sending some dedicated sponsored love our way, can still be enhanced. A [...] Read More
