Good looks for cheap

...or reasonable, anyway.

Check out this furniture (and many, many other home items) from CB2 (a new site from Crate & Barrel). It seems on par with Ikea but maybe, a bit more style-minded. I love this table and chairs - too cute for a small kitchen.

The lighting featured in this ad ($30) is great - especially love the colors (chocolate brown and rust) and the use of them in a row.

These glasses are great too - $20 for a set of 6. Would make a great gift too.

For those located in NYC - the SoHo store is opening in September....!

Wide-Leg is Back?!

Over the last few months, I've seen the new push for wide-leg pants/jeans back for the fall - I'm super excited! But, then I checked the blogs....and there is some discussion over whether you are a 90's reject if you wear super wide-leg, or if they are here to stay. I'm not into the super-wide leg look, but I love the regular ones. Check out this article on Style*Dash. Here are some potential buys for the fall (maybe not the Michael Kors pair though...)

Gap - $50
