CODE RED: VALENTINE'S DAY

posted by Elshane on Feb 1 2016, under Shop What I Want

Valentine's Day celebrates LOVE-- loving yourself, others, and everyone and everything in between (yes, like your pets and plants)!

I've never been one to splurge on the big V-day, but I do think it's important to dabble. A little gift goes a long way-- be it to yourself or your significant other, or a friend in need of a loving touch. 

I've compiled a list of all of my favorite of-the-moment Valentine's Day gifts that range between $20-$1,000, and yes, I have some mega stand-out favorites. 

I love the gift that says, "I got this for you, but secretly, we'll both be enjoying it." Example? The incredibly cool, vintage accordion that can sit on a shelf in your living room and come to life at any party. Also, the Bose bluetooth speaker which is a hands down absolute must for any travel plans, beach day, or afternoon at the park, and of course, the mini Polariod camera that shoots out in-the-moment memories to store and share with friends. 

The finger's crossed keychain is such a quirky gift for a friend in need, or (hehehe) yourself if you tend to misplace your keys a lot!

Don't be late shopping for your Valentine's Day loved ones-- get these items while they last! Happy love.

SHOP NOW: WINTER ESSENTIALS UNDER $100

posted by Elshane on Jan 12 2016, under Shop What I Want

It's finally beginning to feel a lot like Christmas... the weather, that is! If you're in New York or LA, or anywhere sandwiched inbetween, the winter chill has set in... just a few months behind schedule!

This season has been a tricky time for avid shoppers like myself. Splurging on an investment winter piece just doesn't seem right in mid-January, knowing that the spring season is just four months away.

Yet, there's nothing worse than walking into your closet to find stale winter clothing and accessories-- after all, winter is one of the most fun seasons to dress for-- between layering, jewel tones, and textures, cold weather provides endless degrees of style opportunity (get it... degrees?! Ha.... haaa....).

That being said, it's only fair that we allow ourselves a little wiggle room to shop this winter, so I put together my cold weather must-haves, all for under $100! Guilt-free spending, while hitting all the high notes of winter style? I call that a chilling success story!!!!!!

Snoop my winter essentials shopping guide to score some real and faux fur hats and gloves, the perfect winter red lip hue, sweaters to make you feel sexy {that cropped sweater above paired with high waisted blue jeans?! Are you serious! If I wasn't pregnant that would be my winter staple uniform!}, and even a raincoat for your handbag-- WOAH, A MUST! All in all, I'd say winter under $100 never felt so right...

Happy Shopping!

GIFT GUIDE: BASIC ESSENTIALS FOR YOUR GUY

posted by Elshane on Nov 29 2015, under Shop What I Want

This isn't brain surgery. This is a treasure map for the most basic essentials every man in your life should own by now. We're in a time where quality speaks volumes in menswear-- the clothing he chooses defines who is he. Unlike us women who can get away with quickies from Forever 21 and H&M {call it the wear-it-once and it's still worth it syndrome}, it's important that men invest in key quality items that they can wear again and again, since their clothing is typically in a much quicker rotation pattern.

Frankly, a man can live with so few basic items, and still be the best dressed guy in the group. One perfectly cut white button down, a classic flannel shirt for the weekend, and a fresh pair of envied tailored pants can take him a long way.

I've put together a gift guide for all of your man's basic needs. If you see something on this list that he's without-- now's the time to invest while the holiday sales are HAUTE!
