Good morning! JoJami reporting from gorgeous sunny Los Angeles:
Now here is a GREAT photo … my mother JoBee has been buying shoes from Lina (shown below) for years. She is one of the top sales people in the Saks shoe department. She recently called my mother and attached this photo and said: “You have to come in and try these shoes on…they are so comfortable and HOT!” Lina is an Age-mazing (41) and can really rock these shoes! I agree that these sky-high platforms are all the rage, but I am still torn if they are age-appropriate. Personally, I would not wear something this high, but we want to know, would you wear these shoes?
A girl after our own heart - yoga pose in her power pumps!
On a recent trip down to Florida, we were thrilled to see women on the street decked out and looking absolutely hip and gorgeous.
Here are some great looks that we hope will inspire you if you are planning a trip down south.
At Saks we were greeted by this chic saleswoman. Look how she took a classic silver shift and really made it her own. What a great way to wear a scarf, and she sure pulled off wearing those leggings! Love the silver cuff, and the way the mules pull it all together. WOW! She sure has style.
Next, we managed to pull some strings and get a table for lunch at Taboo. While we were there, we were treated to some informal modeling by these lovely ladies (both over 40!)
This spectacular model, in her electric blue shirt from the Jackie Robbins boutique, looked crisp and cool.
This gal was showing a frilly frock from Luca Luca. Not a look for everyone, but it looked great on her. The wider straps made the outfit not feel so bare.
After lunch it was time for some more shopping. Right away we spotted this hottie in a jacket from Saks. Great shoes- we had to get a close up!
Isn’t she a great example of how you can wear fun sexy shoes at any age!
Here is etiquette coach, Lisa Richey (Founder of The American Academy of Etiquette) and JoJami, in front of Chanel. We saw so many bright prints in Florida and Lisa really fit right in, wearing her new Elie Tahari dress. JoJami paired her comfy J. McLaughlin Safari dress with a wide belt and Donald Pliner wedges.
Don’t they look cute?
More NYC finds!
While at Saks, in the makeup department, could not help but stop and take a look at a new eye cream called, Freeze 24/7.
(didn’t hurt, the rep was a cute guy, waving us down!)
Anyway…I digress…
So what is this, new cream??? He said, give me your hand. He turned it over to reveal my line strewn palm. He slathered some cream on, and Wow! the lines plumped up and disappeared.
Then he grabbed my girlfriend, and put some on her eyes,(you know, where the crows feet are).
I snapped this before and after. (yes, this is just my little camera snapping a photo!)

 After - with a visible difference! |
The difference was visible. (Click to enlarge the pictures so you can see!)
So, I don’t know anything about how long it lasts..probably for a day, like the name says.
Personally, did not buy any, but just thought it was very cool and thought I pass it along to all of you!
If anyone has tried it, write us a note under comments! Thanks~
Freeze 24-7 Miracle Kit
Available at Saks.
Oh how we are in heaven!
Shopping the other day, and what did we see, but racks and racks of darling dresses!
Yes, the little dress is back! and we love it. It is the easiest thing to throw on, and with flats or a cute heel, it can take you almost anywhere. Best of all, after years of nothing but pants out there, it’s great to feel feminine again.
One of our favorite new finds is designer David Meister. With his clean lines and retro hip style, these dresses remind us of the gorgeous barbie doll clothes we used to drool over when we were kids. So clean, modern and chic.
How fun is this bright geometric print? Crisp, colorful and elegant, it’s a a real head turner. ( $320)
We’re also crazy about this green bucklefront sheath and love the way it cleverly emphasizes a small waist. ($300)
We also adore this white embroidered strapless dress – so pretty and polished.
It’s hard to resist and oh so perfect for a hot summer evening when you need something to wear out to dinner. ($270)
