Life's Little Luxuries
Personal Shopper Gift Guide!
We all have that one person that we can’t seem to find the perfect gift for... You know, the people that buy themselves everything and have a house full of gadgets & gizmos galore! When it comes birthday or holiday time they don’t even seem to have a wish list. We’ve thought about all the ladies we know – those fashionistas, jet-setters and socialites that have it all - and we are happy to bring you this fabulous list of perfect presents just for her!
What you need to wear this New Year's Eve!
The years about over and I am sure you have two things on your mind… What am I wearing for that fabulous New Year's Eve party and who am I kissing at midnight? No matter where you are going – house party, whooping it up at Sammy’s Romanian or just hitting your couch watching the ball drop, there’s always a way to ring in the New Year in style. Times Square or a killer loft party, you’ll want to be equipped with a dope outfit so that you’re feeling your best as you usher in the New Year.
Time to Bundle Up! Your 5 Must Have Winter Coats This Year!
Time to bundle up because that ultra thick sweater just isn’t going to cut it for the commute to work anymore. I must admit, I am a coat junkie. A bit ashamed to say that I collect coats just like I collect condiments in my fridge - always wanting to try something new because at some point it will be a good pairing. While you might think that you have everything you already need, there are new hotties this year that are worth checking out; new key silhouette that have gotten updates. We’ve put together a list of the 5 must have winter coats you need now! Already have them… not so fast! This year, old school meets new school by vamping up classics with embellishments, velvet and lots of dope hardware like toggle closures. Step up your game ladies, because this winter the rules have changed!
HOLIDAY PARTY MUST HAVES!
Tis the season… to PARTY! The temperature has dropped, I hear can the Salvation Army bell ringing on the corner and Manhattan is jam packed with crazy tourists rushing nowhere! This can only mean only one thing… the holidays are here! Let the strategic planning begin for the most festive time of the year. Don’t compete with the Christmas tree but do cross boundaries and load up on sparkles, tinsel and lots of bling when it comes to getting dressed. We have scaled the racked and back rooms of Michaels to bring you the ultimate must haves for your holiday party season.
Our Staff Gift Picks!
The dates seem to be flying by rapid-fire style and I am already curating my holiday closet for events! And just like that, poof – in a month you’ll all be frantically looking for the perfect gift (Hanukkah and Xmas are on the same day, ahhh!) for your mom, sister and BFF. Here at Michaels we are starting early! We have decided that this is not the year to wait till the 11th hour since the holidays are overlapping… instead we are packing away those gifts now. So go ahead and give thanks to us this year because the Michael’s ladies got together and pulled what we think are the best gifts our website has to offer. These lil’ numbers will go fast – so get to shopping! We certainly hope that our boyfriends, husbands and moms see this blog post :)
The 5 Best Ways To Rock Fur This Season!
These days it seems like we all need to make a statement! We have seen classic shoes and accessories take on a new spin with colors, fabrics and embellishments so it’s no surprise that this Fall our old mink coats are now “yesterdays news”. Check out any runway show from this past fashion week and I dare you to find a designer that didn’t give us some boom boom pow slap in the face with a sick fur spin. Designers have really stepped up their game and reworked the lux classic into new daring and exciting looks. These aren’t your grandmas’ pelts, but now edgy takes on colors, silhouettes and innovative ways to rock what is proven to be the warmest (and most fabulous) winter fabric you can ever drape yourself in.
Packing List! 10 Fashion Essentials For Thanksgiving Travel
Say it ain’t so… Can you believe that 2016 is almost over?! I think we can all agree that this year absolutely flew! The holidays are here – and you can literally smell it in the air (apple cider with 1 shot of whiskey please). While I would love to just wrap myself in red plaid, tinsel and turn on the holiday jams it’s not quite that holiday yet. Turkey time is upon us and what we also know as the busiest traveling day of the year. Whether you’re road tripping, flying home to the rents or just laying low and thinking of tackling the parade (you are cray!) you certainly need the essentials. I can tell you from experience there is nothing worse than packing a bag full of items, to then get to your destination and feel like you have nothing to wear.

TREND REPORT! The Accessories You Must Own For Fall 2016
Let’s get straight to it! We’ve brought you the must have sweaters and boots for this season… We’ve also showed you how to wrap your collection of scarves. What’s missing? The items we all live for, the things we all can’t be without – that’s right, accessories! I might be getting a bit crazy here, but I can seriously live in my favorite jeans, a few core black sweaters and my booties for an entire season if I have an arsenal of stellar accessories to really add a punch to my package. This fall and winter is not a time to be shy. The catwalks, media and even street style are showing us that this could be our boldest time yet! No one will tell you to tone it down since you now have the chance to pile it on… the more chunk, texture and color the better!
