Mr. Kate Custom Designed Cereal 'Food for Love' Necklace

Dolce Vita Teal Damask Sandal
NYC Fashion Week is just around the corner…and I’m in it. In a white dress. You heard me. It’s no secret that my M.O. has always been as a behind-the-camera girl, but when asked to participate in the Electrolux event hosted by Kelly Ripa to benefit The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, I just couldn’t refuse. To kick off fashion week and demonstrate how the Electrolux Perfect Steam washer and dryer can transform your outfit from Rumpled to Runway, ten fashion bloggers (including me, obvy) have been challenged to wear white one last time before fall; we’ve also been asked to accessorize our outfits with teal, the official color of ovarian cancer awareness…and you can help!
Beginning September 8th, you can visit the Wash ‘n Care lounge at Kelly Confidential to support the cause and enter for a chance to win a daily shopping spree as well as the grand prize, a Perfect Steam washer and dryer from Electrolux! They’ll donate $1 to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund each time you enter by simply pressing the Perfect Steam button at Kelly Confidential. Electrolux is also making a donation for each Perfect Steam washer and dryer purchased, as part of its $750,000 commitment to OCRF.
The fashion show will take place on September 8th at 1:00 PM, EST, and you can RSVP to watch the live stream on line at Kelly Confidential, or at Kelly’s Facebook page. I’ve included some of the looks I’m thinking of wearing on the runway, but you’ll have to tune in to see my final picks – see you there!
(My participation in the ‘Rumpled to Runway’ Campaign was sponsored by Electrolux, who provided me with a $150 stipend to style my look as well as travel arrangements to and accommodations in New York to participate.)

Miss Trish of Capri for Target 'Lion' Sandals in Gold $29.99

Miss Trish of Capri for Target 'Starfish' Sandals in Red $29.99

Miss Trish of Capri for Target 'Flower' Sandals in Green Patent $29.99
I know – yet another designer for Target. They are however, procuring some good ones, the latest being a shoe collection from Miss Trish of Capri. Trish Carroll’s flagship store originated as a ‘cabana’ in the Hamptons, and was soon followed up by a second on-premise location at Frederic Fekkai in Beverly Hills; A third, on Worth Avenue in Palm Beach, followed shortly thereafter. The original line of sandals are well-made, classic, and evocative of jet set 1960′s socialites and screen sirens – think St. Tropez. Since I haven’t seen the Target line ‘in person’ (yet), I can’t vouch; What I can say is that it’s in keeping with the glamorous resort feel of the originals, embellished with jewels and sparkly undersea creatures. While the original line will run you somewhere in the ballpark of $250 to $500, the Target versions can be yours for just $29.99, and are available both in-store and online, from April 5th until June 14th.
