Store Appeal: I recently discovered Susana Monaco clothing on the RevolveClothing.com homepage. Clicking on the link I found a wonderful mix of simple jersey and silk dresses, perfect to stock up the summer closet with. I had to share her brand with you! These dresses are so simple and versatile that you could wear them in the summer and even transition them into your fall wardrobes with the right accessories. Most are solid colors so you don’t have to worry about mixing and matching prints. Just accessorize to your hearts delight and away you go! Or keep it simple like Kristin Cavillari wearing Susana Monaco at this Maxim event.

Our Vote: Great jersey dresses for slipping on during the summertime, as well as lovely bright colors and simple knit details. Her website has yet to be updated with the new collection and her bio information, so I’d say to rely on beso.com and it’s large collection of Susana Monaco apparel. From casual to sophisticated for a nice dinner date, there is something for any occasion.

Store Appeal: Movado. Translates to “always in motion”. The name speaks simplicity, drama, class and style. My man is a watch kind of guy, and a Movado watch has been next on his wish list. Why? It’s simple, understated luxurious appeal has made it timeless and unique throughout the years.

Store Appeal: Looking for  the perfect dress for that summertime dinner party, beach barbecue, or first date? Queue Bloomingdales! (affectionately known as “Bloomies” to beloved customers). The Bloomingdales dress department has everything, from casual and chic to sophisticated and sexy. I found a huge array of dresses to choose from, and the Bloomingdales focus on high end, designer labels really makes their selection unique and outstanding. They’ve got all my favorite brands, from quirky/playful Alice + Olivia to sexy and feminine Rebecca Taylor, as well as much much more.

Some of the rings look like they’d make really good wedding rings, and although David Yurman jewelry can be very expensive,  many of these are actually reasonably priced and would make great wedding bands for your soon to be husband.

Take a look at the Men’s Royal Cord Silver Ring:

David Yurman Men's Royal Cord Silver Ring, $250

David Yurman watches are also great – truly stunning but very pricy – ranging from $2500-$10,000.  However, designer watches tend to be the men’s version of women’s obsession with designer handbags, so if you were looking for a show stopping gift for your man and had the money to spend you should consider David Yurman.
