My Juicy Wishlist: Logo Print Babydoll Tee

Image source: Nordstrom.

A new arrival on Nordstrom's website is this Juicy Couture t-shirt. The design on the tee is inspired by "old-school tatoos," such as anchors, swallows, and stars. But don't worry if you're afraid this tee isn't girly enough. There are plenty of classic Juicy images like a crown and a heart. The style of the top is loose and swingy for a casual but chic look. The tee retails for $78.

My Juicy Collection: Black and Gold "Juicy" Shortsleeve Tee

Another of the Juicy Couture gifts I received for Christmas is this black t-shirt with "Juicy" printed in metallic gold. The tee is a lot longer than most of my other Juicy tops. It could probably be worn as a tunic over leggings. The tee came wrapped in Juicy's classic tootsie packaging.

Juicy Couture in Scottsdale, AZ

Here are some photos I took of the new Juicy Couture store in Scottsdale, Arizona. The store is located in the Kierland Commons shopping center. The store is rather small, and only carries women's clothing and accessories, though it is slightly larger than the store at 103 Fifth Avenue in New York. There is a larger Juicy Couture store at the Scottsdale Fashion Square.

My Juicy Wishlist: "Jackie" Swimsuit

Image source: Bloomingdale's

This Juicy Couture swimsuit caught my eye because of it's interesting shape. It appears to be similar to the "cut-out" style one piece that was a very popular trend last year. Those style swimsuits made me nervous because they looked like they could be the cause of a wardrobe malfunction. However, this Juicy Couture one seems much more secure, and much more chic (some swimsuits can be quite tacky in their effort to be sexy). This swimsuit is available at Bloomingdale's for $160.

My Juicy Collection: "Juicy Rebel Without Couture" Black Longsleeve Tee

One of my favorite Juicy Couture shirts in my collection is the "Juicy Rebel Without Couture" one. The slogan is a very cute play on the title of the famous James Dean film, Rebel Without a Cause. I also have a pair of Juicy tube socks with the same saying on them. This top is probably from two years ago.

Ed Westwick Would Be Perfect for a "Dirty English" Campaign

Image source: ed-westwick.org

Juicy Couture has never had a celebrity star in any of their ad campaigns, but if they ever do, Ed Westwick would be perfect for the men's clothing line, Dirty English. The fragrance Dirty English is deemed "the scent of irresistible bad boys all over the world." Ed Westwick exudes this bad boy image both on television as his Gossip Girl character Chuck Bass, and in real life as a heartthrob and lead singer of his rock band, The Filthy Youth. And he actually is English! What originally sparked this idea of mine was this image of Ed on set sporting a velour tracksuit:

Image source: INF Daily.

I have never seen any guy pull off a tracksuit so well! And then today, while looking at Juicy Couture's website, I realized that tracksuit Ed was wearing is indeed by Juicy Couture (view it here)! This photograph could be a Dirty English ad in itself! And looking at the other men's clothing on the site, the clothes would work well for either the Chuck Bass character or for Ed Westwick himself. Maybe I'm still swooning over Ed due to last night's amazing GG episode, but I think it's a great idea! Pam and Gela are self-confessed Gossip Girl fans, so maybe it's a possibility! What do you Juicy fans think? Would Juicy Couture ever enlist a celeb for their ads, and is Ed Westwick a good idea?

My Juicy Collection: Knight in Shining Armor Charm

The knight in shining armor is probably my favorite Juicy Couture charm in my collection.  I got this charm about four years ago.  It is no longer available to purchase individually, however, it is now part of the "fairy tale" charm bracelet that retails for $138.  The new version of the charm appears to be a brighter gold and the horse's tail is pink, whereas mine is white.  You can tell my charm is from several years ago, because the box it comes in is black with a blue interior.  The new charms come in a brown box with a pink interior.

My Juicy Collection: "Juicy Bling Bling" Shortsleeve Tee

I got this Juicy Couture t-shirt at Nordstrom three or four years ago. It was one of those deals where if you spent a certain amount you would receive a free shirt. There were two shirts to choose from: a white t-shirt with "Viva La Juicy" in black "spray paint" style, or this white t-shirt with "Juicy Bling Bling" written in a glittery fuschia script. I wanted the Viva La Juicy one, but they only had it in size Petite, so I had to go with the Bling Bling one. The last time I wore this top, which was probably over two years ago, my friends made fun of me for owning a shirt that had the words "Bling Bling" on it. I had to defend my t-shirt by telling them that I got it free. What do you other Juicy girls think? Is this shirt cute or embarrassing?

Photos of 103 Fifth Avenue

This morning I took a few photos of the Juicy Couture store at 103 Fifth Avenue. This is the smallest of the Manhattan stores. It is located on Fifth Avenue between Madison Square and Union Square.

My Juicy Wishlist: Sequin Platform Espadrilles

Image source: eLuxury.

This post is really an update to the previous one about my search for sequin sandals. I found this beautiful Juicy Couture sequin espadrilles on eLuxury for $79, plus an additional 25% off and free shipping! I never liked the espadrille style before, but these shoes are making me change my mind! They have a leather lining and are made in Italy, so they are obviously much better quality than most espadrilles. These shoes are very cute and much cheaper, but I still like the Leora sandals. Oh, what's a Juicy girl to do?

My Juicy Wishlist: "Leora" Pink Sequin Sandals

Image source: Jildor.

As I was thinking about Juicy Couture's swimwear event tomorrow, I realized I have no good sandals to take with me on my vacation that is a mere two weeks away! I am not really a shoe person. I just have a few pairs of shoes and wear them until they are completely worn out. One pair of very old shoes that I have are sequined flip flops that I bought many years ago. I attempted to find a similar pair online, and did a search on "sequin sandals." I had no luck finding a new version of my old shoes, but did find an amazing pair of Juicy Couture sandals that are a lot fancier than what I had in mind. I first spotted them on Zappos for $134.95, which is quite a high price. I searched for them elsewhere and could only find them on one other site, Jildor, for $87.75. They only have two sizes, and amazingly one of them is mine (size 8). These sandals are very beautiful and look well made, since they are leather after all! After doing a little more research, I would estimate these shoes are from the spring of this year (hence why they are so hard to locate). I just don't think I can bring myself to shell out that much money for sandals, no matter how gorgeous they are. Unless I have an extreme change of heart (and increase in cash) in the next week, these sandals will remain on my wishlist of things I want but will never have. (Sorry this post sounds like such a downer, but I get somewhat emotional when it comes to shopping, especially when I find things I can't have!)

Update: I found them on another site!  They are available on footnotesonline.com for $67.50.  They have sizes 8.5, 9, 9.5, and 10.  I wish I could somehow try these shoes on, because maybe 8.5 would fit me (it would save me $20)!

Photos of 860 Madison Avenue

Today I visited the Juicy Couture store on Madison Avenue in Manhattan. The store is located on Madison Avenue and 70th Street on the Upper East Side, among many other (and considerably more expensive) designer stores. Unfortunately I was unable to take a nice full length shot of the store because there was a large truck parked in front. I hope you enjoy the few photos I was able to capture of the store and its holiday window displays.

Holly Madison, the former "Girl Next Door" and now girlfriend of Criss Angel, was spotted carrying a scottie dog print Juicy Couture tote bag! The canvas bag comes in many colors. Holly appears to be carrying the brown version (pictured below). Since the bag is from earlier this year, it is now difficult to find. Fortunately, Net-A-Porter still has the black, pink, and green version (my favorite) on sale for $157.50 here.

Juicy Couture is Among TheFind.com's Top Searches on "Cyber Monday"

TheFind.com, an online shopping search engine, released some information regarding their top searches on Monday, a day that some have termed "Cyber Monday." It is the first business day after Black Friday, and supposedly those who have gone back to work switch from shopping in stores to shopping online. From a press release on Business Wire:

As consumers look to capitalize on unprecedented sales this year, high-end fashion brands and fine jewelry searches were extremely popular despite the struggling economy. Designer names such as ‘Tory Burch,’ ‘Coach,’ ‘Juicy Couture’ and ‘Dior’ were the most often searched for designers  [...]

“Even though the purse-strings are tightening this holiday season, parents are not skimping on their children’s holiday gifts as evidenced by their search behavior on Cyber Monday,” said Larisa Hall, Vice President of Marketing for TheFind Inc. “Even more interesting is how high-end designer brands are highly active search terms, suggesting that shoppers are expecting amazing deals this year and hoping to afford some designer wares at great prices. It is important to point out that we are seeing shoppers frequent both pure-play retailers as well as stores that have brick-and-mortar outlets. We believe that this illustrates how shoppers are becoming more savvy, and that the online and offline worlds are blurring. Shopping is about finding the best deal that can be had with the most convenience, and retailers that can appease the reality of a three-dimensional customer experience will be the ultimate winners.”

I'm not so sure I buy into this "Cyber Monday" idea. I haven't paid much attention in past years, but this year I actually did my online shopping earlier, since many sales started before Black Friday. For example, Neiman Marcus started their online sale on Thanskgiving day, offering an additional 40% off already reduced items. By the time Monday rolled around, the online sale was over and many of the best items were gone (two Juicy Couture t-shirts I bought for very low prices were actually sold out by Friday)!
