One of the things that has always been a huge drag about H&M, is that you can’t shop online (unless you speak German). You can however, check out their stuff, and with the addition of their Fashion Studio, you can now waste hours of your precious time mixing and matching various outfits on an underwear-clad model (think paper dolls for big girls). You can even choose a ‘head’ for your model in order to emulate ‘your’ coloring, to perhaps get a better idea of what the outfits might in fact look like on you. I’ve taken the liberty of putting together this little ensemble, which is a most reasonable two hundred bucks for everything. It’s also a good transitional outfit from winter to spring. That is all. (Price of jeans estimated at $39.95)

Aside from the fact that I kinda want to live here? The shoe selection is ridiculous (think Vivienne Westwood, Proenza Schouler, and Dries Van Noten). A must-see if you’re in NYC, but if not? Surf a little shoe porn in the meantime…

Foley & Corinna Mid-City Tote in Beige $444
Diane von Furstenberg Silk Cropped Pants in 'Chocolate' $205
Elie Tahari Necklace $298
Not only was I fortunate enough to spend a lovely holiday week in Palm Springs surrounded by family and friends, I received a gift of a shopping trip to one of my most favorite places: The Desert Hills Premium Outlets. Although this might sound like the seventh ring of hell to some, there is nothing that I love more than the cheap challenge of an outlet, and Desert Hills has some good ones. Amongst the requisite crap-fest that is True Religion, Liz Claiborne and UGG, you’ll also find YSL, Gucci, Barney’s, Saks, Jimmy Choo and Bottega Veneta to name (literally) just a few. Per usual, I came away with my arsenal of tiny VANS, but I also managed to score some great stuff for myself.
Clearly, the outlet deal is that it’s mostly (okay entirely) post-season, so the images shown are the closest I could find without having to subject you to more of my own photographic obscenities. I scored the Mid-City tote (minus the weird shiny leather – mine is matte) at the Saks outlet for $300; they also had the larger ‘City Tote’ version for $339. In lieu of the Chocolate ones pictured, my satin DVF pants are olive green. They’re also akin to wearing pajamas, cost a mere $59.50, and are the pants shizz-nit for Spring 2010 (more on that later). My necklace is actually a pale dusty-rosy-lavendery…ish color, and is a gorgeous complement to the gunmetal chains and rhinestones; it also doubles as a belt. Although a somewhat impractical buy even on sale ($100), I was unable to divorce myself from it since I know I will wear it a skillion times. I’ve always said that it’s the little things, and a dreamy day in my world it was…

My friends hate me, but damn if they’re not great sports! (Note: If I’m going to continue with this series, I need to either get a better camera, or a better eye – most likely the latter.) I accosted K in the schoolyard with an iPhone – hi K! – but it’s her own fault for looking stupid cute.
Before I had kids, I used to subscribe to the theory that my girlfriend Jeff taught me; “Always dress like you’re going somewhere better, later.” Although I’ve (you’ve?) recently slacked in this department, K has clearly not, even though she too shuffles two little (albeit very well dressed) dudes around to games, school and parties like the rest of us commoners. In case you don’t have a naturally taught and tanned bod from years as a gymnast or your current regime of outdoor daily tennis? That tunic dress would also be perfect over leggings. Love her.

The 2 Bandits Gold & Black Leather 'Riders' $70 (Per Pair)
Your boots called – they’re bored. They have never been a hotter commodity, yet you continually pile all the jewelry and accessories onto yourself and…ignore them. It’s redemption time for you and your tired boots, because Riders from The 2 Bandits are in the hizzay, and they are amazing! Allow me to clarify: /RYE-derz/ n. Boot harness with brass chains and fine black latigo leather. Adjustable. Sold as a pair. $70. (Boots not included.) You with me? Good, because there’s more.
Founders Erica Chan and Tamar Wider started out making these excellent Bandits to embellish the tops of the boot shaft (I like the studded Edie version, in brown), and eventually branched out to Riders for Fall 2009. How much do I love them? A ton. When The 2 Bandits generously agreed to team up with LASM for a giveaway, how badly did I want to ditch you guys and keep them? Very badly – but I dig you, so here’s your chance to win a pair of black and gold Riders worth seventy bucks, and make your blah boots brilliant! To enter, leave a comment on this post with a brief description of your lame-ass boots that are in desperate need of Riders embellishment. Whoever has the neediest boots? Wins! (P.S. For those of you who can’t wait to see if they’ve won? The 2 Bandits has FREE DOMESTIC SHIPPING!)
All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway on Wednesday November 25th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom shortly thereafter. Open to U.S. residents only.

Sophia Carlo Infinity Scarf in Light Gray $45
I’ve been on the lookout for one of these that isn’t super skinny – score! Found it at Ideeli originally marked at $120. It comes in a bunch of different colors, but is only around for another day or so – in case you’re not a member of Ideeli yet, click here for an invitation! (Also loving its disclaimer of: “Please note, some stray yarns will fall off, but the scarf wears well and there isn’t an issue with further yarn loss after that initial period.” WTF? If it disintegrates I’ll let you know…)

Stella McCartney 'Amber Chatting' Triangle Bra and French Knickers
Don’t know what’s up with me and Stella M.C. lately, but amazing, right…? I guess if you have a body that would make those shorts hang off your ass like that…and don’t mind trying to do up four side buttons while you’re rushing out the door with dried Yo Baby in your hair…and what about all that impractical, bunchy, shirring in the back? Not to mention the paycheck to cover it…why did I post about these again…?

Coopersong Mid-Hipster Bag in 'Black Eve' (14"H x 12"W) $50
Let’s face it; we’re living in a wasteful time. I’m not going to get preachy, but given the opportunity I’ll certainly do my part where I can, since I’m a firm believer that every little bit helps. Coopersong is no exception, with their line of bags and accessories crafted from all-natural, organic, and re-purposed materials. Founder DeAnna Cooper creatively utilizes recycled bicycle inner tubes (that once trekked miles through the Colorado mountains) as the handles on all of her bags. She also features other reclaimed items such as baseball leather, as well as buttons and buckles from the 1940’s.
I happen to love the Mid-Hipster Bag pictured, which would make the perfect ‘un-diaper’ diaper bag; better still when paired with the adorable, polka dotted, Mommy Packs, that include an insulated bottle bag and changing pad. There’s also an awesome retro-print Stroller Bag in a pattern called ‘Women,’ for those of you who prefer a true diaper bag. For kids both young and…not so young (that’s you), be sure to check out the insulated Eco Lunch Bag, that comes in your choice of what seems like a skillion different fabrics – stupid cute!
Now for the best part; if you happen to be in the Los Angeles area this coming weekend, Coopersong is having a trunk show*, with prices ranging from $3 to $90, including numerous styles and items not pictured on their website! Not only will you get the first up-close look at the Fall/Winter 2009 collection, there will be snacks, door prizes and a play area for your little ones, so you can SHOP. IN. PEACE. For those of you not in the L.A. area, L.A. Stylist Mom is giving away a $25 Coopersong gift certificate! To enter, simply visit the Coopersong website, choose your favorite item, and then leave a comment** on this post telling us what it is – that’s it! Hope to see you at the show, and if not, be sure to tell them I sent you!
*The Coopersong Trunk Show will be held on Friday, November 6th, from 1PM-7PM, and on Sunday, November 8th, from NOON-4PM. Please call 310.415.8474 for location and details.
**All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway on Wednesday November 11th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail on Thursday November 12th, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom Friday November 13th. Open to U.S. residents only.

Hazel & Harlow Petite Antiqued 'Heart Of Gold' Pendant $75
Hazel & Harlow 'A Rose Is A Rose' Gold Carved Ring $150
Hazel & Harlow Antiqued Horseshoe Earrings $95
So pretty and delicate and a teensy bit quirky, Hazel & Harlow feels like a throwback to an old fashioned and more romantic time; not unlike a treasure you would be thrilled to discover in your grandmother’s jewelry box – your very cool grandmother, mind you. In a season that’s dominated by in-your-face statement pieces, Hazel & Harlow is like a floral scented breath of fresh air. I also happen to think that there’s nothing sexier than wearing a teeny mini pendant that beckons others to come closer to check it out for themselves (*wink-wink*).
Hazel & Harlow’s ‘Heart Of Gold’ necklace is crafted of 24K gold vermeil with an 18″ chain. The heart itself is etched with a star motif, each inset with a tiny round topaz stone – simple, beautiful, perfect…could be yours! In addition to a generous 30% off site-wide discount from now through November 3rd (simply enter code LASTYLIST09), we’ll be giving away a Petite ‘Heart Of Gold’ Pendant worth $75 to one lucky reader!
If you’d like to enter for a chance to win, all you have to do is sign up to become an L.A. Stylist Mom Facebook Fan (if you haven’t already). Then be sure leave us a comment on this post letting us know that you did – that’s it! Good luck…
