Toast, Cupcakes and LuLu


Good Afternoon, lovelies! I haven't had a spare moment yet today to update the blog, but I'm finally getting to it. Better late than never, right?

I'm trying to brace myself for the ice storm that is supposed to hit Northwest Arkansas this afternoon. I have yet to go to the grocery store, so it looks like I'll be surviving the next few days on Lucky Charms, frozen pizza and Ramen Noodles, haha. Unfortunately, that's about the extent of the contents of my pantry right now. Should make for some major good times.

Today, I wanted to share with you a couple of blogs that you should definitely be reading. Whether you're a slave to the latest trends or just dig clothes, you'll be into these, I promise.



I stumbled upon this blog awhile back on accident...all I read was the word "Toast" in the title and thought I was visiting a food blog...oops.







Best mistake I've made in a long time. Written by maven-of-all-things-couture Rumi Neely, Fashion Toast is an edgy little blog truly intended for hardcore fashionistas.


Did I mention I could stare at the pics there for hours...in the words of Rachel Zoe, I die.




Cupcakes and Cashmere is like the light version of Fashion Toast; definitely stylish, but approachable and easy-to-read. It's the girl next door of fashion blogs, if you will.



Emily Schuman, Los Angeles native and author of C & C, gives readers a healthy dose of West Coast style with her fun, daily posts and pictorials.



The girl's got taste.



LuLu Letty
This blog is pure, sugary perfection. The genius behind LuLu is Maria Confer who describes herself as a "fashion and music enthusiast, writer and collector of vintage paraphenalia."




LLL dedicates itself not only to fashion and trendsetting, but also music, art and home decorating. Oh, and she also has really cute buttons you can grab for your blog.



I think she's just plain awesome.

So, if you've never checked out these ladies' blogs, please do. With that said, I'm going to grab a delicious Coca-Cola, crank up the iPod and get some work done before the blizzard blows through. Wish me luck!
