Rent The Runway is the premier source for women who want to wear designer gowns and cocktail dresses. Much like a hot young starlet who has a professional stylist on speed dial, the average Jane can now access the latest designer dresses right on her laptop. The best thing about this is that you don’t have to pay several hundred dollars for a trendy frock that you may only wear once in your life because you can rent the dress for way less than retail value.

French Kiss from Charlotte Russe
What is it with us fashionistas and all things French? We love the culture, the art, the lifestyle, and of course the clothes! Unfortunately, most of us don’t have the time or money to fly all the way to France to spend a week or more shopping for a brand new wardrobe. Luckily for us, Charlotte Russe recently debuted a hip line of fresh French-inspired clothes and accessories for S/S 2011. Here it is! Click on images to enlarge.

Ponte Heart Print Tiered Dress $29.50, Tube Denim Front Romper $26, Extreme Flare Jeans $25

I love so many things about this line from the preppy stripes, bold polka-dots, vivid colors, and cool denim. Check out the entire line at Charlotte Russe while supplies last.
TEMPTU Dereon Temporary Tattoos
Who says fake tattoos are strictly for the kids? Created by Tina Knowles and modeled by Beyonce, the new Temptu Dereon Temporary Tattoo Collection is the perfect option for fashionistas to go edgy without committing to a real tattoo. These chic tattoos are also easy to apply. Each kit includes eight tattoo sheets(thats about 34 temporary tattoos) and 10x application pads. These tattoos are of cosmetic grade which means they precisely transfer to your skin and last longer than most temporary tatoos(about 3 days longer). These hypoallergenic tatts come in a variety of fun and edgy designs like stars, bolts, monochromatic jewel baubles, and even the signature Dereon Fleur design.
Temptu Dereon Temporary Tattoo Collection retails for $16 at Sephora.com exclusively. They are also limited edition.

The Fashionista’s Emergency Kit
Do you remember the last episode of Project Runway(the one that aired October 8 2010)? They brought back some of this season’s former contestants to help the remaining contestants create 3 looks for Heidi Klum’s collaboration with New Balance to create modern fitness apparel for women. Well, its no secret that there is a lot of jealousy between the contestants and that one of them actually accused another of cheating! What was the crime? Using fashion tape to keep the model’s breasts from spilling out!
I don’t know all about the rules and regulations for the game, and Tim Gunn pawned this situation as a “He Said, She Said” thing; but I do know that a lot of women(actresses and models included) use fashion tape to keep from spilling out. Whats wrong with that? Nothing.
Moving on, I compiled a list of a few crucial accessories to keep close by and preferably inside a drawer. You’ll never know when you need them!
Hollywood Fashion Tape, $10 at Beauty.com
Sometimes a bra won’t work. Hollywood Fashion Tape is the perfect substitute!
Fashion Forms Bra Extenders $12 at Victoria’s Secret
Create just a little extra room for more comfort.
Isabelt available at Specialty Shops
Okay, I did a blog post review a long time ago for them, but it is a genius product! It holds up your jeans and trousers without the bulk of a belt.
Pure Style Girlfriends Smooth ‘em Non-Adhesive Nipple Concealers $28 at Bare Necessities
Nipples are not made for show, unless of course thats what you want. These concealers give coverage minus the ouch factor.
Calvin Klein Hosiery Signature Liner Socks 3-Pack $18 at Bare Necessities
