FashionStake Inc.

Thank you http://www.fabsugar.com/ for introducing me to Fashion Stake today. This is an amazing site - that lets you - the shopper - democratize fashion. According to The Cut even Gilt's co-founder has invested! It's sort of like a mini-etsy for fashion lovers. Some of the stuff is - UGLY, but some pieces shine (and are affordable)!



"A lot on the site won't blow your mind, but that's not necessarily the point — Fashion Stake is not trying to sell, or discover, the next Lanvin. Items are accessibly priced between $20 and $500, with the most popular pieces running from $100 to $200. There are distinct bright spots in the selection, which at times can feel like a sea of bad draping that desperately wants to be Ann Demeulemeester. Nicholas K even designed an exclusive collection for the site, which — though the label is pretty big for an independent-designer categorization — will surely raise Fashion Stake's profile. While a name you will recognize on the site is rare, some unknown Fashion Stake designers come aboard with feathers in their caps, having sold to Barneys or other department stores, for example. Fashion Stake's founders hope to help these up-and-comers blow up — which, they are aware, is very rare in fashion generally."

Florsheim Shoes {closed}

Thank you to all that entered and congrats to EMMA for winning!  xo You know when you first meet a handsome boy, in my case it was a bar, and everything about him is near perfect. His chiseled features, dark shiny hair, and stunning light blue eyes. Then you look down, and gasp, he's wearing sneakers. Not your run of the mill, fashion forward footwear, but we are talking Nike, Adidas, etc. running shoes. He's wearing them in a bar, with jeans, and a polo. If you're anything like me, the only times tennis shoes are acceptable are on the elliptical machine or running a half marathon. This boy turned out to be the love of my life, and with little resistance I was able to turn him into my fashionable sidekick. With a little help from  Florsheim  you can take your Valentine from sorry to sexy with a pair of shoes courtesy of this luxury brand. I've put together some inspirational looks for you. Just remember, you may not able to c...

caged in.

If you follow me on Instagram  you've seen these flats pop up numerous times. I own them in nude and red, and to be 100% transparent just purchased a replacement nude pair. While they aren't the gorgeous $900 Valentino Rockstud Cage Flats , I could care less, I bought them because I LOVE the style. I wish I could make myself spend $900 on shoes; however, at this point traveling, decorating my new home and investing in my future are more important. I can't have it all! Those of you with Rockstuds : Yes, I'm jealous. If you'd like the link to these shoes, they are so comfy, follow me on Instagram and send me a direct message -  @McKerihan . Please note: I know there are many that have very strong opinions about knockoffs. These shoes do not bare the Valentino tag, nor do they replicate the exact design. They are simply 'inspired by'. If you're wearing anything from Forever 21, Old Navy, Gap, even lower priced brands from Nordstrom chances are your...
