Have an evening gala to attend?
Or maybe you have a first or second date?
Perhaps you got invited to a fancy schmancy cocktail party...
or maybe you're just tired of window shopping outside of Saks Fifth for those dresses that you say you will never dare spend $2,000 on...can we say Hervé Legér anyone?

Well what ever the occasion or reason is, two entrepreneurs Jennifer and Jennifer came up with a solution that all women have urgently been waiting for:  Rent-ing the Runway.

Co-founders Jennifer Hyman and Jennifer Fleiss came up with the idea for Rent the Runway after witnessing the happens-more-times-than-not 'closet full of clothes but nothing to wear' episodes that all women must go through in life!
Check out these two girl's-SLASH-saviors from fashion heaven's backstory and how Rent the Runway came about here.

Here's an example of how you shop:

Step 1: log onto www.renttherunway.com
Step 2: Create a membership
Step 3: You're ready to shop

After that, now you can start choosing from dresses of over 95 designers and counting, including yes Hervé Legér, Carlos Miele, Nicole Miller, Diane von Furstenberg and many more.

Dresses range in prices usually starting at $50 up to range of $250.  Choose your size plus a back up size.  Select the date that you'd like your dress to arrive.  Wear it, then return it.   It's all very simple.

So I'm loving the art currently headlined on Kanye West's blog.   The post takes you through a montage of intriguing photos that leads up to Kanye's video Coldest Winter.  

I'll run you through some of my favorites, but I'll start this post with the photo of Kanye's right hand girl in an image that channels a pose done by Grace Jones.  Does Amber compare?

Anyhoo....some images that I found fascinating:

It's winter time, boots season-- so what better time to talk about and bring back a unique fashion item that can work for any style if you know how to make it work --Spats! The very old (19th century old) fashion accessory that has withstood the test of time, deserves a comeback. But I dare not to introduce these onto my readers without giving you proper advice on how to wear them stylishly.
