I Can't Believe It's Not Cashmere!

One of our "big news" items this winter has been the introduction of the "Cashtastic line." These items look and feel like cashmere but with a price tag that doesn't leave you crying and penniless. No longer is luxury unaffordable. These items are luxe and lovely and won't pill, so they will look new throughout many wears. Vlor and Beth were nice enough to model for me. Beth refuses to wear the Brimmed Hat ($12.99) fearing her hair would get messed up-but Vlor was more of a trooper. They both wore the Ruffle Scarf (specially priced at $14.99) and the Gathered Glove ($9.99). All three items come in ivory, teal and fuchsia. These make great gifts, you can get all three items for less than $40.00- that's way less than one cashmere item would cost at your local department store. Find these pieces along with cashtastic cardigan sets, a men's sweater, and a women's sweater in C24-26. Look forward to more cashtastic apparel coming in C3 2010.

From Heeled to Healed

There is a comfort queen in all of us. Here at Avon looking professional and put together are part of the job, which means high heels. Uh, heels-most heels hurt, they make you look taller and leaner and always feel great when making two laps around the shoe store to see if they are comfortable, but then you wear them for 5 plus hours and all you can think about is your throbbing feet. No pain no gain right? Well my girls at Avon waver between two extremes. Every morning Beth puts on 4" inch heels (her boyfriend is 6'4" so she has that luxury). Similarly Vlor who is the "fancy pants" glamour girl among us slides into a beautiful pair of Christian Louboutin patent pumps.

And then 4 o'clock hits.................off come the heels and on go the Avon Slippers.

Vlor is wearing the C23 Sequin Slippers, Beth is wearing the recolor of the C24 Cable Knit Pom Pom Slipper (coming in pink in C2 2010!).
