We appreciate causes. We appreciate jewelry with a cause. Nan Fusco has designed a unique spinning arrow ring to honor her daughter who’s been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.  A spinning arrow through diamonds represents courage as one moves forward. When the arrow is turned, the word KOA is revealed. KOA is Hawaiian for “the strong, brave, and fearless” Or, “warrior”. For each ring sold, Nan Fusco is donating all profits to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PANCAN.) But, the price tag is hefty. $900 hefty. It is for a good cause…. Like what you read here?

Back-to-school is, well, back. If you’re a parent, you surely spent way too many frazzled hours getting supplies and clothing together. Why can’t you go back to school? At least when it comes to fashion… Sarto by Franco Sarto’s Duncan Loafer will remind your of school days.  Some celebrity wore these loafers with dark denim jeans and some slutty top. Guess she was going for a “bad girl school girl look.” Priced at $104.99 you may need a “loafer daddy” to pay for these. Or you could go to our second home, DSW, and score this from Franco Sarto (you know, designs for commoners.)  Like what you read here?

Why do ladies love maxi dresses? Because they’re comfy in the heat of summer; Because they’re cute; And because they hid a whole lot of lot. Some famous babe wore this Garnet Hill Linen Tank Maxi Dress in public.  Cute. And we are a sucker for pockets. But, if we drop the $78 on this baby—we won’t have enough money for Hot Pockets. So after some research, we found this equally cute maxi dress from Popzora.  Sure, there aren’t any pockets or stripes—but it looks kinda elegant to us. We can keep cool, and have some fab chic for a brief summer’s night. Plus, $34.69 is a good deal. And with a sale on Hot Pockets, we’re happy as a clam dressed in a sweet maxi dress… Like what you read here?

Gone are the days where dudes solely get the opportunity to express their love for whatever sports team. Yes, there have always been women’s options—but the early days of female fandom was sad. Now, the ladies are right in the mix with clothing tailored to form and footwear that’s fashionable and functional. ESPN correspondent Sage Steele has launched BZEE’s Rally collection—a line of footwear for women to show their team pride.  BZEES shoes feature proprietary, “crazy comfy” Cloud Technology for maximum comfort, and a lightweight feel. The stretch fabrics move with you, and they’re machine washable. The collection features a sandal priced at $59 and a bootie priced at $69, with a total of 11 color options. Not too shabby. Guess you could tailgate all day—on your feet—and still look fab. Goooo, team! Like what you read here? Click on the HOME page and subscribe today to unlock premium, members-only content—some of which you won’t find any place else on the internet!

Instead of coupledom, y’all look like a cult. But this is different. Cupshe has a complete Mommy & Me line of swimwear for moms and their minis! For mom:  For little princess:  There are one-piece options, too, for those not as bold (raises hand). And the prices are on point. Yes! We wish we had a kid so we could be all matchy-fantastic. We might have to borrow someone’s child. Because creating our own spawn is not an option. Like what you read here?

Summer time makes us think “tropical”. But when we saw this women’s shirt from Robert Graham, the first thing we thought was: Magnum, P.I.  You remember Tom Selleck with that iconic mustache? Who wouldn’t want Tom private-dicking around their hood? This obviously designer shirt, is true Magnum form—very… manly. But hey, it’s on sale! Marked down to $160! We suggest you channel some inner girl-power, ladies, and take this Magnum shirt thang to next-level awesome.  Kohl’s: $27.50 for all that detective-ing you’re ready to do. Like, Facebook creeping. That’s a lot of work right there! Like what you read here?

Why silk? Again—an unforgiving fabric. Also, it’s like wearing a slip-n-slide. Seriously. Ladies—who hasn’t had some satiny-type nightgown that by morning ended up around your neck from all the rolling over? Also—the caftan. All that comes to mind is a lady that’s given up on fashion and fitness. Which is our entire lives, but that’s not the point. Caftans are hideous. At least the ones we’ve seen. And in this case, this caftan is hideous and overpriced. The reason we say it’s overpriced is because the price is available upon request. Ha!  This is the Amy Perry Tropical Silk Caftan from La Via Style House. Are we supposed to wear this in public? And does silk breathe? Because tropical and silk don’t seem to go together like coconut and rum. Determined to find a caftan that we could wear in public if we so chose to, and one that doesn’t look like a curtain… we found this from Walmart.  Well, this is just all kinds of adorbs. And we don’t need to call for a price. It’s just $18.99. Yes, it’s not silk. It’s merely Rayon. But that’s okay. Pretension is overrated. Like what you read here?

We understand why it’s wise to wear a hat in the sun. Those beautiful rays are damaging. But what is the point of the visor? Don’t people realize that their scalp can get burned? It’s happened to us. Megan Fox was spotted wearing this beach visor from Hat Attack.  We’d show you how fab she looks, but the whole copyright thing… Anywho, she dropped $80 to only have the top of her head exposed. If you would like to live life like Megan, we suggest dropping a fraction of the price on this number:  Amazon. $14.98. Boom! P.S. If you’re going to wear this, please put some sunscreen on your part. Unless red scalp is the new trend… Like what you read here?

Just the sound of the word sounds nice and sexy… and expensive. Guess those silkworms have great agents because $338 for a silk dress is a lot.  Somebody famous was spotted wearing the above dress from designer Hale Bob. We’re not a fan of silk dresses. We’d need full body Spanx because silk clings. To everything. Plus, there’s no boob support. As always, we want you to not spend like a star when you’re working at Dollar General. So, here’s a cute alternative:  A cute, satin dress from Tobi. Plus, this model looks way happier wearing it. And it’s on sale for $54. You’re saving over $200. Which means you could buy 200 items before tax at the dollar store. If you were so inclined to purchase in that way. P.S. Are we the only ones thinking Hale-Bopp—as in comet—when referring to Hale Bop clothing? Like what you read here?
