>> Topshop is looking to take on Manhattan... maybe as early as next spring.  And the store?  It will be just as big as the one at Oxford Circus.

>>  I saw these earrings, and immediately my mind turned to that beautiful Rochas dress with the bird silhouette appliques.  The beautiful dress which, unfortunately, I can hardly afford.  So I will settle for the earrings instead -- in Rochas black, of course. 

>>  Karen Walker?  Vena Cava?  Jessica Ogden?  Adele Clarke? Any of these names ring a bell? If so, proceed.  If not, take a look below, and then you'll understand why you're proceeding.  Creatures of Comfort is this great little boutique that carries emerging designers, so lots of funkier pieces like high-waisted shorts and puffy cropped jackets.  Trust.  You will find many things you like.  Like I said, just look below.

>>  Our favorite chic French boutique Target is sticking with its French roots for another go round of Go International.  The new designer, Sophie Albou of Paul and Joe, will debut her collection on August 1, and previews of the looks are already up.  I love how my favorite look from each collection is a dress -- the plaid bubble dress from Luella, the colorblock dress from Tara Jarmon, and now the kimono dress from Paul and Joe.  What can I say, I've been in a dress kind of mood lately.
