AHALife: My AHA Moment

In my world of shopping for a living,  I have been to the end of the Internet and back, or so I thought.  Then I found AHAlife.

The Perfect Thank You 
For Summer Soirees

Brighten Up With Neon

I can't resist any shade of neon. It's electrifying and perfect for Summer. Eye Candy for my eyes.  And it seems to really never totally go out of style, always sneaking in a bit in fashion or beauty here and there.  This year Preen was one of the fashion houses to show it for Spring.  I don't have much of  this highlighter hue in my wardrobe, but a few pretty pieces like some fun undies and fab flip flops.  I think I need more color in my life, so I had this bright idea for today's post. Let's see what I found.....

I am crazy about these luxe leather padded cases for your laptop. What fabulous colors! Best yet, they double as a chic clutch when not at work.

Concert Chic: 15 Fab Festival Finds

Chicago is bracing for Lollapalooza, which celebrates its 10th year in Chicago's Grant Park from August 1st - 3rd. It's one of the country's largest festivals with Outcast, Lorde, and The Kings Of Leon heading the line up. It's not only a chance to listen to some good pop, hip-hop and Indie music, it has become a place to see and be seen.  Why not look your best?  Almost anything goes - except stilettos and maybe a Lilly Pulitzer palm print.   Rocker or Boho chic is really the way to go. It's so much fun to assemble. Just think fringe, flowers and fab fedoras.
