Like, Totally.
I am in need of a new handbag. Well, 'need' might be a stretch! But I've made a pact with myself to have Look Books on hand at all times and none of my current bags fit the bill. So, it looks like I'm in the market for one of these:
The Totally Turnlock Teri from Marc by Marc Jacobs.
I'm a loyal MbyMJ fan. The leather is lovely, the design is smart and the liner is perfection! Just look at it:
My Look Books will be zipped and protected and all my junk can float around in the other interior sections. My trusty BlackBerry (well, PinkBerry) will be on hand at all times in the (totally) turnlock front pockets. Yay!

Buxom, Baby.
I'm SO in love with this Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Balm from Bare Escentuals. I happened upon it by sheer accident when I stopped at Sephora after a long day of shopping to freshen my makeup before heading out for the evening (holy cheap-o, hah).
It's not at all greasy or sticky but kind of smooth and super tingly. I am partial to the Portofino colour (pictured above), which is not at all as dark as it appears. It's a nice way to get colour on your lips without going too matte. Red lips are making a steady comeback and as I am obeying my Cardinal Rule of Fashion (if you participated in the trend the first time, you are too old to do it on the second round), I am looking to tone down the crimson kisser for 2010. Oh, and another awesome bonus? Paraben-free! Whee!

Redbook likes the S10 Stella & Dot Collection.
So much so that they have featured not one but two of the gorgeous necklaces. The delightfully quirky chartreuse-hued Palm Necklace with Starfish Brooch and the Mexican sea-inspired Cortez Turquoise and Suede Necklace.
These particular styles look so great paired with the colour of this season - navy.
Nautical stripes of navy and white look sharp with the Palm tripled with the brooch off to the side. The yellow-green beads are separated by hand knotted turquoise silk threads for an unexpected pop of colour relating back to the whimsical enamel and hand-set pave crystal starfish.
The chocolate brown suede of the Cortez necklace feels so luxurious around your neck and the three different shaped beads add interest to any outfit.

Bangles for June, according to InStyle.
The shirtdess just seems so casually cool. Like you put some work into the top but chilled out on the bottom. It's effortless effort! This month's InStyle has a cute feature: three ways to wear a shirtdress and they pair it with the Cypress Wood Bangle as one in a stack of bracelets. Pretty!
