Work and life has swallowed me up for the past week or so explaining my absence from the world wide web.

As for the retail section of this site, I’ve decided that we can’t go live till July. At first we were just waiting on a few more pieces from a jewelry designer and since we still don’t have them and its already the late part of May - it will need to wait till July. You may be asking yourself: Did she forget about June? Remember that month: June? Well I am counting my blessings for being able to go abroad for most of June into July. But that means I wont be in Los Angeles and wont be able to manage the Retail site properly.

And even though I haven’t posted in the past ten days, it doesn’t mean I have stopped shopping.

Newest arrival - Henry Holland for Pretty Polly Super Suspender Tights.

Last’s seasons collaboration between Henry Holland and Pretty Polly. I am in love with them. They really wake up a black mini and do they look sexy on a bare pair of legs? Yes. I originally saw them on Seven New York for $40 but when I placed my order they were still waiting for a shipment. Due to my lack of patience, I found them on a UK site, My Tights (for HALF the price) and bought them immediately. Get them here.

I also found them on ASOS.

Even with shipping you save money buying from My Tights or ASOS. My Tights was also a great find. Their selection of Hosiery is ridiculous - they range from different prints, colors, sheer shorts, cute socks and more. It is a good find if you detest trying to find good tights in department stores. The only catch is that you have to wait a couple more days than the usual shipping process.

This piece will be arriving tomorrow...

I feel a little guilty about this one. A girlfriend was on the hunt for the Lonely Heart Cut Out Bra. Sold out online, I told her I would do some investigation. After going to their site http://lonelyheartslabel.swappler.com/ and checking out their Stockists, I was pleasantly surprised to see Love No A. I contacted Alana, the owner of No.A, http://www.number-a.com/ who in my opinion is a star. (She has also helped me in the past to get out of stock items in less than 48 hours... re: Cubannie Links Bow Rings after mine had disappeared... since they were such a hit, I ordered 3 after the first one was lost) Anyways, Alana had never carried the bra but contacted the designer and was able to get the last xs there was. My girlfriend needed a small but they were sold out and being the mean person I am, I still took the xs. HK, forgive me. It finally arrives tomorrow, I’ll let you know how it fits. Good news, if you have the patience, most places will restock this item by the end of summer.
