Cameo Work Blog: Cranberry and Saucy

Made a cameo fill-in visit at work this Sunday and gobbled up the opportunity to toss together a Thanksgiving themed cornucopia of puns.

Enjoy and make sure to stop by Roundabout for your fill of consignment designer fashions

Don't I Look Cute Today: Last Day at My Old Job

Yesterday was my last day at Roundabout Resale. I recently landed a new job, which I will divulge more about in due time. But for now I close one door in a sparkly, demon-eyed lioness sweater vest. 

It's the proper thing to do. 

Thanks to Roundabout for all the love over the last year and half and be on the lookout for upcoming guest blog posts for them (always a freelancer, honey!)

I've been eyeing this Lucien Pellat-Finet polo at work for awhile and now it's on sale for $53.

Should I take the plunge?

Don't I Look Cute Today: Ties for Sale

We got in a truck load of Missoni and Versace ties yesterday at work and I decided to make a clothesline window advertising these scant men's offerings in time for Pop's Day

Whilst photographing the window, two kids from a Korean style blog asked me to pose with it. 

So here's me, here's the winder. Enjoy

Watch me on NBC's The Feast

Yeah, I got my own NBC show!

Well, ok more like the kids over at NBC's fashion and pop culture blog, "The Feast" came in and asked me to talk about Summer trends while dressing a mannequin at work.



I plugged Roundabout while chattin' up the "disco of the Orient" look all over the runways

And hot damn, child, I was having a good hair day!

Cintra Wilson Finished Being Critical?

"This will be my last dispatch as your Critical Shopper. This column has been a singular joy and privilege to write, and I will miss your readership. Whenever you find the mate to your perfect bondage-boot hidden under one of the couches at Barneys on sale day, I will be with you in spirit"

And just like that my favorite bitter pill of a professional shopper, Cintra Wilson, signs off at The New York Times?

And with a review of the United Nude store on Bond Street? Really? I mean an architectural shoe line is nice and very Cintra ( a self-professed shoe maniac) but a bit of a weak fade out if you ask me.

Come back and be mean to the rest of the Manhattan Mall!

Afterall, Roundabout hasn't even been reviewed yet!
