When they say Not Just a Label, they really mean it. A shop that's been around for a few months, with guest curators including my hero Diane Pernet, this online boutique really promotes all the labels I love to write about (ahem Blushless!) This month they have Lara Stone, and I'm not really a person to gush over models, but I have a not-so-secret girlcrush on this alien looking lady. Seriously, I'm always amazed every time I see her... that's Lara Stone? Yep, that's what I think. Anyway, before I digress in my internal conversations, as if I didn't have another reason to love her, she's also picked an amazingly cool selection of clothing for this month's shop. Among them, my dear Liv from Blushless Livlaovone heart dress, Emma from Seelenkleid (posted about here and here) Gemma Slack's Spine Dress (posted about her too), Lara Dawson's Buckminster dress, and yeah, I could go on linking to this site, but you get the drift. It's worth a peek, and it's nice to see an online shop that carries all my online muses.

You've been with your guy for a while, and things are getting serious. His parents are coming to visit. He wants you to meet them. Try not to panic. You're charming! Guy knows that you'll wow them. Now, to decide what to wear! A few recommendations: wear something flattering, but not revealing. Don't show too much cleavage or too much leg, but hey, work your assets all the same. Choose a classic style like Calvin Klein's Laser Cut Ruffle Shirtdress. Something that will flatter your curves, but also says, hey I'm a good girl and I would make a great mother to your grandkids. If you've got a killer dress already, I recommend one pop of interest and color with your jewelry. Wearing something like Kenneth Jay Lane's Garden Cuff is great because if all else fails, it's a conversation piece. Check out my slideshow for lots of options to meet his parents!
