Stylish with Substance

I was hunting down pictures of celebrity recent fashion upgrade, Nicole Richie, and saw a total downgrade of an accessory - her fiancé of 4 months, Adam Goldstein. Yes, girls, Men are Accessories. Dress them well; after all, if he's yours, he's not gay.

DJ AM (ahem, AM sounds like the lame-o radio broadcasting system, it doesn't represent cool tunes for me) is creepy. Look at his poser-cool-boy stare *shudder*.

Check out these pictures, Adam is not a compliment to the runway, and he turns Nicole into an accessory of a fashion crime. Don't get caught in pictures with a schlub while you're looking fabulous, girls!

Meanwhile, Paris just got engaged to ... Paris.

My Best Friend Forever likes to tease me about liking "Signature shoes." He knows about my obsessions, but has the bags and shoes confused.

The truth is, when most handbag designers do shoes in Signature patterns, it is a humorous attempt to gauge money from us. But these daringly-high-heeled Gucci purple-trim ankle strap pumps are impressive, even exquisite, in comparison.

I've been informed about a website, FLOSS in Style, which showcases celebrity fashion and where to get similar items, to "floss" the style. Users can find alternatives to celeb' outfits by selecting a star from a list, viewing different photos, and using the sidebar to the right of each picture. All of the featured figures on the site are famous for being fashion icons, as well as their respective talents. Most of the alternative items are a lot less expensive than the "real" thing (unless it IS the real thing). There are sometimes extra variations of a similar bag, etc. The site has some neat scripting, including little thumbnails of products and a nifty "zoom" feature to really focus in on a neat handbag or fabulous strappy sandals. The "shop" is even interactive; you can submit your own suggestions.

I've signed up and have suggested many items, I played there for nearly two hours my first night and had such a blast. I'll keep going back.

There are new pictures, items, and celebrities being added continuously, so keep checking yourself!

We were referenced among other (big?) "product" blogs, last, but not least, as "great," just great, no name. That's great? Only Pursed* was mentioned from the Lipped world.

Thanks?

We, the product blogs, were called "highly focused and super-creative resources."
