Ahhh. That rich smooth feel of soft leather. That warm smell of classy elegance. Women of the world have taken the art of carrying beautiful bags to a new limit. So what bag are you looking for this fall?
Now that the crisp fall weather has come around, my thoughts turn to cozy sweaters in my favourite autumn colours. Don't you just love those rich coppers, warm oranges, vibrant reds and mossy greens? What, you're not an autumn like me? Don't worry! There are lots of colours in this fall's palette that will compliment your colouring. While many of you may poo poo the 80's approach to colour analysis, the theories still hold. However, colour analysis has become much more advanced by recognizing that not everyone can fit into the four seasonal boxes.
Here's one for the boys. Grooming Lounge founders, Michael Gilman and Pirooz Sarshar are blogging.

Former Spice Girl, Victoria Beckham's new book 'That Extra Half an Inch - hair, heels and everything in between' is due out on 31st October.
Whilst most online bookstores are taking orders, they still aren't showing a cover image, so I can't be sure that the image I have managed to find (left - click to enlarge) is, in fact, the genuine article.
According to the publisher,
"the book promises be an accessible, usable and desirable book about fashion, beauty and style. Packed with realistic and practical advice... Victoria will share her personal top tips as well as anecdotes from the fashion world. 'That extra half an inch' will be the ultimate girl's guide to looking and feeling the best that you can, and learning a bit about fashion as you go along."

And so say all of us!

in this fascinating article for Psychology Today packed with tips and insights.
Creating charisma and the image we portray isn't all about the clothes we wear. Knowing how to behave or 'carry' ourselves in any given situation is equally important. One place you don’t want to lose you rhythm or cause someone else
to lose theirs is on the golf course. Sometimes, a small breach of
etiquette can be the cause. Read on for a primer in what to do – and
not do – while playing this sport.
"Charm - which means the power to effect work without employing brute force - is indispensable to women. Charm is a woman's strength just as strength is a man's charm."
