FRUGAL FIANCÉE: Bridal Blemish Emergency!
After several years of relatively blemish-free skin, I awoke a couple weeks ago to a massive zit on my face. After a week of trying to make it go away without success, TWO MORE showed up to join it, AACK! I needed something I could count on to make them disappear before the big day. My fiancé is actually the one who found Mario Badescu's Drying Lotion.
This stuff is similar to calamine lotion and has some specific directions (whatever you do DON'T SHAKE IT) but it has worked great and I'll definitely keep it on hand as the Wedding Day nears (T-18).
Made By: Mario Badescu
Price: $17 (cheaper then a trip to the dermatologist or a pre-wedding breakdown)
GUYS BUYS: Classy Cargo
By Jax
No pair of men's shorts gets holes in them more quickly than cargo shorts. I have NO idea why this is, it just is.
Am I a huge fan of cargo shorts? Nope, no I'm not. But I also know they are the go-to summer short for men. All I ask is that if you are going to wear cargo shorts, please, PLEASE, keep it classy and make sure there are no holes! At just $30 for a pair of J. Crew cargo shorts, you have no excuse!

The Roomy Clutch
By Jax
I'm drooling over this stunning envelope clutch. Perfect for summer and winter (in winter, it would be a bold bright accent to a drab and dreary day.)
Envelope clutches generally are my favorite go-to "small" bag, because it's not small at all! It's the biggest you can go and still be hand-held.

Solid Strapless
By Jax
Welcome back, fashionistas! I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend!
I thought I would kick things off again with something fun and summery! I wore strapless things all weekend, and honestly, once you find a solid strapless bra, the world is your strapless dress oyster. I love this little halter dress because if you wear it anywhere sunny, you can just untie the halter and get your tan on, and you'll still be totally supported!

VINTAGE VIXEN: More Perfect Plaid!
I am having a moment with plaid! I am just in love with this little dress. Wish I was wearing it to a Memorial Day bbq today... Take a look at the bodice styling of this dress: It's almost like a pinafore- with the bias cross-plaid pattern making a very flattering V on the front, and a looser skirt with the plaid on a vertical/horizontal grid. So classy! Also the black and white is really charming and would be easy to wear everywhere. I might even take this dress to a tailor and hem the skirt shorter to show more leg (since I'm so short)- or keep it this length for easy, breezy wear all summer long! I wish there were more dresses out there like this one, but it looks like this is one of a kind.
Happy Memorial Day everyone!

FRUGAL FIANCÉE: Perfect Present.
For the wedding night, while you might be a bit tipsy, or tired, or just giddy with excitement, you might also want to slip into something more "comfortable" to enjoy with your new spouse. I think these undies a sexy, cute, and very bridal.

COSMETICS CUTIE: Shimmery, Silky, Sun Protection
By Jen
Memorial Day weekend is upon us, which means it’s time to celebrate the start of the summer! Whether you’re heading to the beach or enjoying a backyard BBQ, you’re going to enjoy good food, good friends and a lot of time in the sun! When the long weekend is over, the last thing you want as a memory of your fun is a sunburn. Sunscreen is probably the product most of us like to skip. We all have an excuse, whether it’s the smell or the greasy consistency. However, your safety in the sun is important and there are no excuses! Luckily, I’ve found a sunscreen that can strike a compromise…the Hawaiian Tropic Shimmer Effect Sunscreen Lotion.
First off, this sunscreen has the SPF you need and the light scent of coconut, so you won’t smell like chemicals. It also goes on silky so you don’t feel greasy! Plus, it leaves a nice shimmer behind giving your skin a dewy summer sheen.
If you always have an excuse not to wear sunscreen, invest in Hawaiian Tropic Shimmer Effect Sunscreen Lotion and this skincare chore will become your favorite summertime ritual.

FRUGAL FIANCÉE: Buff Brides.
It's no secret that Brides and Grooms want to look their best on their wedding day. You will be seeing pictures of your self from your wedding day for the rest of your life, so you want to look super-good. A major part of my plan has been working out with a trainer at Crunch, its really fun, keeps me motivated, and I'm hoping to have some serious guns by the wedding day (only half kidding here). On Gilt City they are offering 5 training sessions for $149 if you sign up as a new Crunch member which is much MUCH cheaper than their standard rates. Jump on this and then drop and give me 20.

COMFY COQUETTE: Ruffles, Cut Out, Coverage - oh my!
The older I get, the more a one piece doesn't seem all that awful -- especially with such cute ones out there! I love this ruffle, plunge halter by Heidi Klein. The coral color is perfect for all skin tones, and the keyhole cut out adds a bit of sex appeal without the risk of totally weird tan lines (monokini anyone?).Made By: Heidi Klein
Price: $84 (that is 60% off retail!)

Although the dress is flowy and capelike in the front, it does have definition in the back, so you'll still have a shape.

Eddie Bauer calls this a safari shirt. Sure, it's perfect for a safari, but it's also a great white shirt at half price that is perfect for a ton of other things!
It's see through and light, so you can wear it with a camisole underneath, or for a sexier look, a bandeau!

The whimsical fairytale headpiece is something you think you'll never wear, but it's SO AWESOME that you end up working it into your fashion choices.
I like the use of rhinestones. It gives it just enough sparkle without turning it into overwhelming bling, and the soft rose color is perfect for spring, summer and fall.

One of my friends bought these sunglasses and I am totally obsessed with them. They look really good on him. Something about the roundness, and then the angular part near the nose, makes them good for a very masculine face.
Are these sunglasses guaranteed to work on you? Nope, because every face is different! Do I think you should try them on and if they look good, buy them? Absolutely!
