Blog Report. Ruby Red Slipper Makes The Majors After Only A Couple Of Months! Second City Style Fashion Blog

Ruby_red_post_1

Our friend, Sara over at Ruby Red Slipper  clicked her heels three times and has entered The Emerald City. Today's New York Post dished on her ability to find Hollywood looks for less. Far less.

Bloggers Find Star Styles for Small Wallets.

November 6, 2006 -- IN at least one or two of the 15 magazines Sara Fitzpatrick gets a month, there's always a feature about "getting the look for less." If only. " 'Less' is maybe $258 for a sweater," Fitzpatrick says. "It's absurd for a woman of my age and income to be able to do this. You'd never be able to go out - or eat." So Fitzpatrick - a woman of age 27, and of income from doing marketing for Broadway shows like "A Chorus Line," minus a Manhattan rent - took matters into own hands. She started a blog, rubyredslipper.com, in which she breaks down celebrity looks for less. A-young-woman-living-in-New-York less.

"I don't think people know they can get these things for low prices," Fitzpatrick says. "And a lot of discount clothes now, they've stepped up the bar. They're well made."

Like many of the growing number of fashion bloggers, Fitzpatrick updates Ruby Red Slipper for fun, calling it "a sport. I really love finding a bargain."

Congrats, Sara! See you on The View.

Looking forward to the weekend and kicking off those heels?  The Trashionista reports on spring's most laid back footwear trend.

The Beauty Addict, has two mentions this week as she brings us both a fantastic overview of her experience during the Fashion Week "circus" and info on the latest FAA regulations and what it will mean for your handbag.

Over at Fashion Tribes, a podcast on couture clothing details caught my eye.

My pick from the Bag Snob has to be 3.1 Phillip Lim's doctors bag.  Love it!  Sign me up!

Great advice for designers wishing to sell their work on consignment at the Fashion Incubator.

Bag Snob put this weekly round-up together (thank you) so we will lead with their entry for the week...

What is more appropriate than having a spring fashion week review of handbags by the Bag Snob, I ask you? Hint: they are seeing metallic for Spring, which makes them happy because honestly, who doesn’t love shiny things? Bag Snob

Lesley at Fashiontribes, posted bloggers' reviews of every NY spring show. I already posted these, but some more have been added.

Girl A Whirl announced that Kate Moss, the most stylish chick in the world, is doing a line of clothes for TopShop?  Where do we sign up?

Have you seen the Gap commercial with Audrey Hepburn?  Fashion Addict Diary read my mind.  It's so awful, I want to cry.

Is winter coming already? I'm not ready for cold weather, I was born on a tropical island, I'm never ready for cold weather. For those not in denial, Fab Sugar has some cool winter boots.

Elke the Beauty newsletter found the answer to the lash-challenged.

eBeauty Daily featured a pink Tourmaline hair dryer - a portion of the proceeds goes toward breast cancer research. Good for my hair and for a good cause and pink? I am getting myself one of these. This is almost as good as if Ben & Jerry's ice cream made you skinny.

The Jewelry Weblog shows Michael Bruder jewelry designs for men, with men in mind. Do we really want men to be buying jewelry for themselves? Lucky for me, my husband won't wear anything flashy so you can try to corrupt him all you want (hey, more for me right?).

Ohhh, Beauty Addict has the best bath product - cake and bath all at once?  Makes you clean and smell yummy!
