The Mindy Project

Cannot wait for this! Let's face it, Mindy's talents were being wasted on The Office. Not that she wasn't great, but she's capable of oh so much more.

And on a related note, this tweet seems fairly accurate:

Pattern on Pattern Decor

It's a bit of a bold design choice - one that may or may not work for your decor - but I am a big fan of matching pillows and chairs. Give it a whirl!

White Woven Sperrys

I am so in love with these boat shoes! Sperry makes something for everyone these days so don't feel like you're trapped with the boring originals. Sequins, color blocked, leopard, you name it. Perfect for a long hot summer.

Stunning Serena

Serena Williams may have been ousted in Round 1 of the French Open earlier this week, but that didn't stop her from looking amazing nonetheless. No one should look that good that sweaty. Gorgeous! Gear by Nike so luckily you can make it your very own!

J'Adore Charlize

1. I am obsessed with this crown! Snow White and the Huntsman costume designer Colleen Atwood deserves awards just for that (she has plenty).

2. Between these Snow White commercials and her Dior perfume ads running concurrently, I'm convinced this woman has the most perfect skin on the planet.

Retro Running Shorts

Via AmericanApparel
I have been searching high and low for a pair of retro green shorts with white trim and I finally tracked some down. And what's more, these are great shorts! They are the Interlock Running Short from American Apparel. Very nice, heavy, quality knit fabric that fits just right. I know they look super scandalous in the pics (what AA ad doesn't these days?) but if you actually buy an appropriate size, they're just fine and not the booty shorts they appear to be! Really comfy with plenty of inseam but cut higher on the outer thigh for sexiness and the illusion of longer legs. I highly recommend! Check 'em out here! They come in every color combo under the sun - a major plus.

The Great Gatsby

The trailer for Baz Luhrmann's rendition of The Great Gatsby was released today. I love Baz Luhrmann and I love The Great Gatsby. I don't know if I love the intersection of the two. There's just something about Fitzgerald over autotuning... For your perusal:

Gold Flamingos

Much as I love the tried and true kitsch of pink flamingos, blingin' gold flamingos dotting a minimalist backyard is outstanding! A little spray paint is all you need.

Long Line Bras

Ladies, retro is hitting hard this season, in the form of lingerie. Long line bras are everywhere. They're retro, pin-up, push-up sexy (and, while not sexy at all, they take care of that pesky creeping back fat problem too). Try one out if you're looking to glam up that lingerie wardrobe or even your everyday wardrobe, if you dare to wear yours for the world to see.

Hot date on a hot summer night? Consider this: a white dress will always stand out amazingly well against the dark of night. Sizzlin'

The lovely Miz Rihanna just posted a couple of behind the scenes pics from her Where Have You Been video and they are super sultry and sexy. Looking good as always!

Kim Kardashian and nephew Mason hit the beach in Mexico. Kim looks drop dead gorgeous as always but we can't get over how cute that Mason is. Stylish fedora, swim trunks and a short sleeved shirt have him looking so retro...perfect!

Structured Gowns

Via ILoveThisNightmare
Dior F/W 2008. I adore garments that have some structure and volume and a sculptural, 3-dimensional quality. It's a great way to add some interest to your wardrobe - on a smaller scale. Structured peplums and padded shoulders and definitely hot hot hot right now. This gown by Christian Dior is no exception.

Decorative Tacks

Lots of couches have decorative tacks but check this out: stylized swags! So cute.

Nantucket Dreamin'

Via AllDressedInArgyle
I simply adore Nantucket. It's so quaint and classy! Cedar shingles and hydrangeas never go out of style. And a sprawling estate out on Madaket is definitely on my bucket list.

Nautical Flair

Macy's has been splashing this Mother's Day ad all over the place and I'm in love with it. And the makeup is just as great as the fashion. Can't go wrong these days with winged eyeliner.
