Sass in the Summer
Goddess Maxi Dress
The New Summer Collection from Sassy Divas is hot off the fabric presses. The Summer Breeze ’09 Collection is based in delicate materials and solid color combinations. Some of the pieces look Mediterranean-coast inspired, like the white maxi dress with teal accents. On the other end of the spectrum, the “Modern Vintage Caftan” has a more night-out feel but maintains the same flirty personality.
The 2007 launched company describes itself as “a mix of vintage style with modern design.” You can see more of Sassy Divas at their website: www.sassydivas.com and shop for their line of T-Shirts at:www.shop.sassydivas.com. Also in the works from this designer is a Fall/Holiday Collection.

SILVER Lining
seventynine47
Jewelry Designer Vicente Agor’s recently launched fine silver line is on tour. The collection, dubbed seventynine47, will grace Houston May 1st and 2nd at a Trunk Show held at the Cotton Club. Agor, who is known for his pieces in 18 karat gold, invokes fine silver as a medium in this new collection. seventynine47 is also said to include white sapphires as opposed to diamonds (which were used in his signature line). Little touches of gold, and Agor’s usual artistic insight, give the new jewelry a luxurious air while the silver and sapphire combinations make these items relatively more affordable. Agor’s entire 18 karat gold collection, as well as some of his Fall/Winter ‘09 collection, will accompany the new seventynine47 pieces in

Houston and at a few similar shows across the country. The San Francisco based designer is sure to please with this new direction, as he has in the past. The former investment executive has received many an accolade since entering the jewelry arena. His works have since gained international buzz. The Trunk Show in Houston is free to attend and will take place between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm. Also featured will be pieces by designer Amy Y of Amy Y Jewelry. And as for the collections name, Vicente credits the periodic table for inspiration. “The numbers 79 and 47 are the atomic numbers for gold and silver respectively”, he says. FabSavvy thinks its PURE Genius.

Recession Proof Your Style – #1
In Today’s economy, if we can still call it that, everyone is looking for practical ways to save. Of Course, that means that some of our usual luxuries may be sacrificed. Fortunately for you, this series of tips, tricks, and dispelled myths will show you how reasonable style can be with just a little extra effort.
TIP: Think Versatile
We all want our own personal style to be an expression of our personality. Sometimes our choice of items that best reflect our style, can be so unique that they are not easily worn with the bulk of our wardrobe. When choosing pieces to give your look a little extra “pop” – Think Versatile. Instead of the pink & yellow pumps, opt for the solid pink pair with subtle detail. These can be worn with your classic black suit to work (add one accessory) or with jeans on the weekend. Remember, the idea is not only to save money up front but to get the most for your dollar. The pink & yellow pair may cost less, but if you only wear them once, is it really a deal?
