While I have written often about specific staples women
should have in their wardrobe, I find that my wardrobe needs change from season
to season. Below is a list of my
must-haves for 2012 – wardrobe basics that are on-trend now, but will be
classics and worth their cost for years to come.
Dark straight
jeans. One season jeans are flared,
the next time they are skinny. Faded,
charcoal, waxed, colored… it's hard to keep up.
One trend that stays pretty classic is a pair of very dark, crisp
straight pair of jeans. Luckily this
trend is pretty budget-friendly. You can
find a pair of dark rinse Levi's
(always a stylish classic choice) for less than $50; keep them looking crisp by
washing as little as possible – put in the freezer to kill smelly bacteria,
wash when necessary on cold and the gentle cycle and hang to dry.

Charlize Theron and Michelle
Williams were seen on the red carpet for the Gloden Globes sporting
headbands. While Michelle wore a vintage
Fred Leighton black velvet embellished band with her blonde pixie cut and
long-sleeved navy velvet gown by Jason Wu, Charlize wore a vintage Cartier
diamond headband to accentuate the loose chignon behind her left ear and her
nude Dior Couture gown. Both wore very
different styles of dress, hair, and headband and both looked positively
stunning.

Well, here are some suggestions to look as though you spent weeks on your glam look for your New Years fete.

Getting the best value isn't just about finding the lowest price tag. There are lots of hidden costs behind everything you buy--including the energy, water and chemicals used in the manufacturing process, the environmental impact of shipping products or running company offices and, in some cases, the labor conditions as well.
Last week, I warned you about the
dangers of greenwashing. While promises to go green don't always translate into actual practice, I found five big companies that are taking encouraging steps a little closer toward their eco-friendly goals.

Once upon a time in the small town of Storybrooke, the daughter of Snow White drove around in a yellow beat-up Volkswagen Beetle. Wait what, put the brakes on here, rewind. What was that, Snow White's daughter? Yes, it is true. Emma Snow dragged into this twisted little town by Henry, the son she gave up for adoption. Whoa, Snow White had a grandson. Shut the front door! Take a breath, take a moment, you will catch up.
It gets better. Emma is Storybrooke's only chance to restore a happily-ever-after ending for all of the fairytale residents. If Emma battles the Evil Queen who placed the curse, then she will do it in style. Emma loves to wear leather jackets.
By adiadi 9 months ago I just read Nordstroms is giving free shipping and returns for any price of online order from now on. I guess everyone wins!

By snarkydeals 9 months ago I get way too confused trying to buy in-store at Nordstrom, so shopping online is really the way to go. Savings' discounts don't hurt either :D
