What's Happening: ALC Trunk Show at Poole Shop
Looking for a new Little Black Dress to add your your collection, or a perfect tee that you'll wear with everything? Look no further than this Andrea Lieberman trunk show. A.L.C. has long been a favorite of famous gals like J. Lo and...Show More Summary
What's Happening: Bob Ellis at SouthPark to Close
Oooof. This is terrible. We thought we'd withstood the worst fashion fatalities that this recession was going to cause our poor, dear Charlotte (R.I.P. Coco Fleur and Miss Priss, among many others), but we had no idea that our despair would have to dip this low. Show More Summary
Guy Style: Mad Men Suits Now on Sale at Brooks Brothers
Hey dapper dudes, your Don Draper moment has finally arrived. As a woman, I'd advise you to only copy the The Don's style, and not his questionable relationship with his wife, or his philandering, mmmkay? Otherwise, this look has the...Show More Summary
Fashion Distraction: Spring 2010 Bridal Runways
I'm introducing a new, recurring category to the posts here on Shop Talk. "Fashion Distraction" posts will direct you to stuff happening online or in print that are worth taking a break from work to peruse. What better way to start off...Show More Summary
What's Happening: Rodarte for Target
It is my proud joy to take over the responsibility of critiquing Designer For Target collections from Sarah, but of course the first one I get right out of the gate is slightly INSANE. Rodarte's anticipated collection for the retail giant has finally been unveiled, and all I have to say is... Show More Summary
Trend On Trial: Leather Jackets
The Bomber. The Motorcycle. The Scuba. Short, fitted leather outerwear is the hottness this season, and I just can´t quite decide if I am ready to zip one on or not. Work through this with me, won´t you ST´s?Pros: It never hurts to add a pinch of badass to your wardrobe. Show More Summary
The Weekend Ahead: October 15-18
I just couldn't take another minute of this dreary Charlotte weather, so as you read this, I am in sunny Mexico for a few days of sun and spa pampering. When you are done hurling things at your laptop screen in a jealous rage, you should...Show More Summary
Love It: Neiman Marcus Christmas Book
Hello there Shop Talkers!Yesterday was my first day on the job as the solo author of this blog, and I blew it. I was home sick and thus didn't have the chance to share any shopping gems with you all. Please forgive me, I promise to make it up to you right... Show More Summary
What's Happening: Jenn Takes Over Shop Talk
Sarah here:A love of fashion and a passion for food aren’t typically paired. Fashionistas these days pick at their salads and sip their Perrier while foodies are much more concerned with the texture of a dish than any fancy fabric. But...Show More Summary
The Weekend Ahead: October 8-11
SHOP & SIP - Trunk show at Mack and Mack We are a sucker for events that feature signature martinis. This fall trunk show, featuring styles from Co Velo Coordinates and Mack and Mack's own clothing line will also include complimentary "Macktinis" and hors d' oeuvres. Show More Summary
Saving with Style: Anthropologie Bathing Suits
Ok, so finding a new bathing suit probably isn't at the top of your "to do" list right now being that sweater weather is just around the corner and with last night's temperature drop you're thinking more fabric rather than less.However,...Show More Summary
Online Finds: J. Crew Heels
Jenn and I work in an office with two other women. For this reason there is much discussion of fashion, style, and "is that a new dress you're wearing today? where did you get it?" just about every day. In fact, I've already listed off the brand of every single thing I'm wearing to my co-workers this morning. Show More Summary
Love It: Long Cardigans
First, let me be clear. I'm not talking about sweater coats (though those are cozy and they do have their place). I am talking about long, skinny, thin, definitely-doesn't-count-as-outerwear, cardigans. In case you haven't noticed, they...Show More Summary
Love It: Dries Van Noten Spring 2010
For the most part, Jenn and I keep our envy of style writers who attend international fashion shows to a minimum. After all, on days like today (when Conde Nast shut down three major magazines), we're just glad to have a place that is...Show More Summary
Weekend Ahead: October 2-4
TASTESaturday is supposed to be mostly sunny with a high of 79. We're talking perfect breezy fall day (knock on wood). So, just in case you needed another excuse to attend the Great Grapes festival at Symphony Park, there it is. The event includes live music, great food, and the chance to taste hundreds of North Carolina wines. Show More Summary
Sarah's Musings on London Style
Last week, after leaving Shop Talk in the very able hands of Jenn, I took a lovely little trip to London. In order to make myself feel better after receiving numerous evil glares and my fair share of hate email from Jenn for leaving her behind, I decided to hit the city's high streets for a bit of shopping.

Q & A with Steve Madden
The man behind the shoes is going to be at Belk at South Park this Saturday, Sept. 26 from 2-3:30 p.m. talking about fall trends and, most importantly, giving away free shoes. (Are there any two words I like to hear more in the same sentence than "free" and "shoes"? I think not.)To whet your appetite, we asked Mr. Show More Summary
The Weekend Ahead: September 24-27
WAX ON - waxMAMA Launch Party at Therapy Marketplace & Cafe Just so you know that there are no rivalries in the world of Charlotte style-blogging, we wanted to let you know about this FABULOUS launch party going on tonight to celebrate...Show More Summary
Online Finds: Are you Gilt-y yet?
There are some style bloggers out there who might think I am coming late to the party by writing about Gilt Groupe a bazillion years after savvy fashion-lovers found out about it, but you know what, not all of us catch on to these things...Show More Summary
