Simply Vera Brushstroke Dress$46.80 (was $78-- save 40%!)Available at: kohls.comWant to start your weekend off with some fabulous sale shopping? Super affordable department store Kohls.com is having a massive sale all weekend long and, as part of the sale, they are offering 30-50% off their entire selection of Simply Vera Vera Wang . Yes, you heard right, every single piece of Simply Vera Vera Wang on the site in on sale for 30-50% off retail price. This includes new spring arrivals. Check out these hot finds. The Brushstroke Dress is vaguely retro, but not in the costume-y kind of way. The delicate brush strokes fit in perfectly with spring's art-inspired prints, but at a price that will allow you to actually indulge in more than one trend this season. I anticipate that the art-inspired look won't be with us for more than one or two seasons, so I strongly advocate opting for an affordable take on this trend. At 40% off of an already low retail price, this is a smart way to try out...

Mike & Chris "Drake " Pullover$182.00Available at: chocosho.comWhen uber trendy leather hoodie makers Mike & Chris branched out into clothing last year, we were more than excited.

Now, here we are, a year later and Mike & Chris have proven that their gift goes way beyond creative uses of leather. One of the newest pieces to emerge from the stylish minds of Mike & Chris is the "Drake" Pullover. This amazing jersey blouse has all of the ease of your favorite sweatshirt, combined with the kind of details that make it stand out as a chic designer find. For example, check out the bubble dolman sleeves, two-button stand-up collar, and front patch pockets.

Ready to snag a Lauren Conrad original before the price skyrockets, but not sure where to start? I suggest the "Audrina" Dress, available in Blue Jewel (shown), Natural, and Black.

Girl Talk: Dirty Hair - Do or Don't?
2008-02-27 16:52:00
Is Dirty Hair Trendy?As much as Stiletto Jungle is tuned in to the more practical facets of the world of shopping and style, I do keep a watchful eye on emerging trends-- no matter how far they seem to fall outside of the mainstream. Today's odd blip of the fashion radar can become tomorrow's must-have style in the blink of an eye. It's best to be prepared.While indulging in my daily read of the always cutting-edge New York Times Style section last Friday I came across a rather astonishing new beauty "trend"-- it seems that regular shampooing is on its way out. Really? What ever happened to the days of lather-rinse-repeat? Remember when sudsing up just once per shower-- skipping the "repeat"-- was rebellious? I was deep in my disbelief when I stopped to examine my own recent dirty hair habits. Could it be that I was taking part in this new trend without even realizing it?First, I stopped shampooing the day after blowing out my hair. The process was just too painful to repeat ever...

FOUND: Catherine Zeta Jones's Gold Bandage Dress
2008-02-26 22:42:00
photo: people.comAs much as I enjoy a little Hollywood gossip now and again, I really feel like I know way too much about celebrities. I long for the mystique of old Hollywood, back when all anyone knew about the personal lives of the Hollywood elite was what they looked like at a movie premiere. I think that's why I adore Catherine Zeta Jones. She looks red carpet ready every time she steps out the door, her life is far from an open book, and she has a regal air about her that is hard to deny. Like a little throwback to old Hollywood for us to enjoy here and now.Like the Hollywood stars of the golden age, Catherine knows how to work a good dress.
