- My diamond heart belonged to my Aunt Libby, who passed away. She always called me her “heart.” I usually wear it with shorter, layered diamond necklaces. Multiplying sparkle and shine during the day works, as long as it’s with delicate pieces.

- I have collected heart charms since I was a little girl. These are from my Mom, Aunt, Dad and a flea market. I will string them on a thin chain to wear in a cluster all at once for a bold look.

- This engraved gold heard belonged to my Great Grandmother. Her birthday is marked with a tiny diamond on the front. I have never seen another piece quite like this. Its unique design with intricate detail make this one of my favorite heirlooms (p.s. – it has a pin back as well).

- One of my favorite movies of ALL TIME, is Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter is Dead. I had this quote etched on a heart on a long chain. It’s fun – and so me!

Tom Brady put his tight end behind Uggs as their spokesperson. As a key player in the forthcoming Superbowl AND one half of Forbes' richest couples with the super Gisele Bündchen, we're inclined to take his word. Plus, Uggs for dudes look like a solid leather boot, just lined with sheepskin.

Cons get the sheep treatment. Okay, they're actually by

The moccasin grew a couple inches taller and let its hair run long. Tie it up and you have the Tramper by

Sheepskin looks better through rose-tinted prints.

Combat boots gone soft.

Big ribbon lace up brings the corset effect. Keep that fluffy sheepskin sucked in tight. Cankles, my dear, are unacceptable.

Keep it fuzzy thigh high.

This shape is on the fringe.

Make it more like moonboots.

Get high, sheepishly.

This nuance is going to be extremely helpful when it comes to deciding what to wear to a party, what to pair with that new sweater, what the hottest trends are, etc. Of course, if they are your friends IRL, you can always text your question, but mass texting pains aside, how many times have you needed an answer ASAP and your friends were super slow to respond?

Am I the only one who thinks this integration is incredibly cool?

This nail art is clearly ridiculous. Who would have thought people could create such uniquely painted and decorated nails, actually don these nails without keeling over and flaunt them for all to see. Insane in the membrane!

Look Four: Layered and Lace

The Long Lace Skirt: $205

I chose this skirt because it has to be layered, and the lace is insatiable. It’s perfectly narrow at the waist with a zipper, and it flares so naturally at the bottom. Spinning takes great effect in this.

The Nether Layer Ivory Skirt: $145

I went white underneath so that the lace can come alive in contrast. It’s shorter than the lace skirt, so there’s a cloud of mystery by the ankles. The elastic at the waistband makes this piece ultra versatile and the silk makes it super soft.

The Crop Tank Back-Lace: $125

From the front, it is proportioned just right for this skirt, curving up to the top of the hips. The back is made of white lace, covering sheer from nape to waist.

The Plucked Heart Necklace: Pamela Love, $380

She’s the drummer in a band and inspired by everything from medicine to Hieronymus Bosch. She’s making mighty jewelry, rustic, weighty and evocative.

Last week on Project Runway, Natalie Portman helped Suede win the grand prize: seeing his dress made and sold on Bluefly.com. Today Bluefly announced that the 150 re-creations of Suede’s winning design it put up for sale at $286 sold out in less than a day. Wow! That’s amazing. Here’s what Suede had to say about it:

“I was so excited about this challenge and really wanted to win. Selling my dress on Bluefly is the opportunity of a lifetime. I knew I had to pull out all of the stops to impress this client and especially celebrity judge Natalie Portman, and Suede, “ROCKED IT!” And, now to see the customers responding to my “winning look” like this what a thrill. It is a million times better than immunity! Suede LOVES that!!!”

Thanks NY Mag for pointing this out.

Christy is taking over at Bluefly and the Trannies must be goin out of their minds with anticipation to spend their welfare checks. It’s great to see someone win Project Runway and actually have something to show for it. How fudgin awesome to that he can even make simple, everyday pieces but keep the grand, unique style that we’ve come to love. Watch for 2:17 when Christy coins a new phrase “Tranny Klum”. I like it, I’m using it, I’m stealing it and I’m going to copyright it, NAH!
