Trend Watch: All Hail, Brocade!
The trappings of royalty, brocade exudes glamour and luxury fit for a queen, or a duchess as our beloved style icon Princess Kate has shown us by wearing her blue brocade jacket on a number of different occasions.

Video | Designer Shoe Looks for Less
There's nothing like a beautiful pair of shoes to give us confidence and put a runway-model-jaunt in our step. Of course, every season our favorite designers launch an array of hard-to-resist "it" shoes -- we want them all. At least most of them. Of course, our practical side and budget force us to hone in on our favorites because we still have to buy things like groceries and pay for our kid's piano lessons. Good news!
