Figure Fixers: Nipple Covers

I take a lot of things for granted so I assume that all fashionistas are familiar with the notion of nipple covers until I had this conversation with my little sis:

Her: WHAT are those?!?!

(Full disclosure, they were on my mom's living room table.)

Me: Nipple covers. (Thinking: Duh!)

Her: Huh? For what?

Me: So instead of me having to wear a strapless bra , I can pop these bad boys on. Or if I don't want my nipples to show through my bra, I will put these on first.

*Sidebar* I have a plethora of dresses with built in bras, I am in NO WAY condoning letting your girls hang low and thinking that because you have on nipple covers that this is okay behavior. Unless they are oh so perky and you got it like that.

Back to conversation:

Her: Well, why are they so.....rubbery?

Me: Because they are reusable and silicone.

Her: Oh.....COOOOOL! Where did you get these?

Me: Tar-jhay

Her: Huh?

Me: You obviously didn't take French in school, it's Target.

Her: Whatevs.....(insert eye rolling here)

I also use breast petals but sometimes I think that the outline shows thru the fabric so I stick to the silicone. Plus the silicone ones are reusable up to 100 times.

You can find the Lingerie Solutions brand at Walmart and Target and most department stores carry other brands as well.

What I Want NOW!





Vince Camuto "Dita" sandals $134.99 @ Heels.com

My heart skipped a beat when I saw these Vince Camuto platform wedges, the wood offsets the metallic tone and makes these the perfect combination of dressy/casual!


Maxwell's much anticipated (by me!) new cd BLACKsummers' night will be available Tuesday, July 7th for $11.99 @ Amazon.com. (cd/dvd deluxe edition) I am not going to be able to sleep tonight!


J. Crew Dulce skirt $450 (Sold out) I love how this is styled

I have been on the hunt for a sequined or metallic pencil skirt to pair with a fitted tank and thong flats or a simple white button down shirt and platforms. I don't want to spend a lot on this because it's such a whimsical purchase so I have been scouring thrift stores in their evening wear section. I thought I found the perfect black one but alas, it was not my size and YES I did try it on anyway hoping against hope that it would fit, but........it didn't. The search continues.



Vintage sequined skirt $125 from seller NikitaJade @ Etsy


Aquilano Rimondi sequined skirt $1,350 @ Bergdorf Goodman


Spiegel Signature cashmere sequined collection skirt $99 (on sale!) @ Spiegel

Reason #986211565213689 of Why I Love Marshalls

Their shoe game is always fashionable and the prices are budget friendly!




Wish they had these in my size......


I had eyed these online at Endless and DSW.com



Have I been under a rock because I didn't know that Paris Hilton had a shoe line? (Or maybe I just heard the name 'Paris Hilton' and tuned the rest out.) These are actually cute.



And they have layaway!
