Watch Isaac

I can't wait for this! Isaac Mizrahi's going to be on his own website Watch Isaac in 2008 with daily episodes, talking to you about everything from making your ass look smaller to paying your mortgage. Don't miss it. By the way, he doesn't like sheer pantyhose and thinks they give women bologna legs. Totally!

Deal Alert - YBF Backless Kimono Top in Melon

YBF Backless Kimono Top in Melon $119 on sale for $45!! Totally love this jersey top from Young, Fabulous, & Broke. The melon red color is so pretty that it can brighten up any skin tone and your winter wardrobe. The deep-v neckline and banding at the sleeves, waist, and neck are all slimming. All good things and fairly demure. But...when you turn around, oooohh, your beautiful back is shown off! Pair it with a sequin skirt for a different holiday look from your other dresses.

Deal Alert - Geren Ford Inset Silk Tee

If you wear size XS, you are in luck with this Geren Ford Inset Silk Tee $238 on sale for $80 at Maneater Threads!! It totally dawned on me that I haven't bought a top in forever! Maybe because I've been wearing dresses all too often. Or maybe because I've become so picky about tops, blouses and tees in general. But I love this tee! The overall shape is adorable and girlie, and the grey silk band makes it so sexy for showing a little bit of skin. I think I need a pair of new jeans to go with this top.

Renaissance woman

You are going to have some fun reading British Vogue's 2008 style predictions. The actress to watch for, the all-rounder...Renaissance woman, caught my eyes especially. A journalist, model, and musician at the age of 26. Talk about your beautiful, intelligent, talented and accomplished wonder girl. Doesn't she make you feel envious? I absolutely covet her red coat, too.

Being "accomplished" used to mean excelling at the piano, speaking French and having good teeth. These days the stakes are somewhat higher, as up-and-coming screen beauty Clemency Burton-Hill proves. At 26, Clemency's life already makes for awe-inspiring reading. She was a violin scholar at the Royal College of Music, secured a double first from Cambridge and a Kennedy Scholarship to Harvard, and, after a stint in the Vogue features department, has become a respected journalist, a model and a musician - in addition to her burgeoning acting career, of course. She hit the public eye earlier this year for her role in political drama series Party Animals, and will soon appear in hard-hitting film Shoot On Sight, which deals with terrorism in Britain. Other projects include The Phoenix with Peter O'Toole, The Wreck with Jean Simmons, and an ITV drama series The Palace.

Facial Massage Roller

You are going to laugh at this. I laughed too when I used it the first time. This is a facial massage roller for slimming and tightening the face. Sounds kinda far-fetched right? I saw this on one of my favorite Chinese beauty TV shows. You roll it on your cheeks, it can tightening and contour, and de-puff your face by targeting the lymphatic glands in front of and under the ears. Asian girls are obsessed with beauty gadgets, I'll tell you. The girls were testing it on their faces, it looks so funny, but I couldn't resist so I immediately jumped on eBay to see if I could get it. Lo and behold, it wasn't hard to find. And it didn't cost much so I figured what the heck and ordered one. I wasn't really interested in slimming, but if it could tighten, that'd be a bonus. One of my biggest fears about aging is sagging jaw lines. So I'm open to any preventative measures. I've been using this roller thingy for a week now. It actually feels pretty comfortable on the face, and my cheeks are rosy after the "exercise". I'll have to use it everyday to see if it really tightens my face. I guess I'll be able to tell overtime. Just hope it doesn't break before then, haha! If you want one, you can get it dirt cheap here on eBay.

Steve Madden Sale

I was browsing SteveMadden.com's sale and clearance pages. For me, since Steve Madden copies the designer shoes, it's no sense in getting Steve Madden shoes in full prices (especially if they are bad copies, you know). But if they are on sale, they can be steals. Here are some of the stuff that I wouldn't mind getting.

TAPDANCE BRN PATENT $79.95 $49.99. The bow makes an otherwise conservative shoe pretty adorable.

DIGNIFY TEAL FABRIC $69.95 $49.99. A wow shoe to go with your LBD. I especially like the way the two straps cross over, they are the perfect width at keeping it comfortable and elongating the lines.

CHAVELA PURPLE FABRIC $89.95 $69.99. The rose doesn't look cheap, which is a good thing.

MANDARIN GOLD LEATHER $79.95 $29.99. Classic and fabu! The light pinkish gold is gorgeous.

S3019I SILVER 188 $109. So apparently Steve Madden has branched out to clothes and bags too. I've seen this dress in quite a few magazines. It's got plenty of sequins but still somewhat delicate.

S2263i SILVER MULTI $168.99 $69.99. I quite like the simplicity of this dress. The overall silver tone with the sequined neck-line are enough. I'd pair a royal purple glossy belt for a bit more drama.
