Smells Fantastic

Searching for the perfect scent is painful.  Hours of smelling, spraying, sniffing coffee beans trying to get rid of the pungent musk the sales girl insists is divine.  Yuck!  2 friends, Court and Kai, have come up with Celestine.  It’s an eu de parfume that seems to be universally flattering.  It has lovely hints of vanilla and citrus that work with your body chemistry to smell unique on each person.  The best part is that it retails for $55 instead of the usual $120+ that most go for.  

Note: there will be special Celestine events coming up February 19 and 20

February Pick

It's almost February and I'm thinking roses, chocolates, and this amazing Susana Monaco dress.  This "pop" pink color will really make you stand out in a crowd and the flirty silhouette looks great on several shapes.  It will be in the stores and on http://www.shopverucasalt.com next month.  Don't miss out!

2009 Favorite Comes Back for 2010

This year we were introduced to the perfect marriage of cool and comfort; jeans and leggings.  I thought I had died and gone to fashion heaven.  Even my husband was excited to see me watching Grey's Anatomy in "jeans" instead of my usual sweats.

The Veruca Salt favorite was the James Jeans "twiggy" by miles.  They are super comfy, hold up really well, and most importantly...make you look a whole size smaller!  If you don't have a pair already, the most classic color is the China Doll.  If you are already addicted, get on the waiting list for the unbelievable spring colors.

Keeping up with Kim

Whether you like her or not, Kim Kardashian has some great style and I love the way she wore this Van Halen T for a casual day out. http://www.shopverucasalt.com/

It's so comfy and perfect with leggings and a vest or with your favorite pair of jeans.  There are tour dates on the back too! 

Band Fan

I used to scour vintage shops for band t shirts.  They were always boxy, unflattering, mens shirts (those are the only ones you can find.)  Then I'd spend hours cutting and sewing to make them resemble something a woman could wear.  Chaser LA has finally answered my prayers and taken away the painstaking labor.  They've recreated vintage band t's in flattering womens shapes.  They are so comfy too!!!   Check out this AC/DC sweatshirt with tour dates on the back at http://www.shopverucasalt.com
