This Maniac Eco Fleece Sweatshirt by Alternative Apparel just screams comfort! I love the vintage appeal and the neck is understated yet can be sexy if worn the right way. This sweatshirt is made by Alternative Apparel's natural fleece alternative. The kangaroo pocket gives it a youthful feel. This garment is a perfect addition to anyone's closet. Available in a assortment of colors and priced just right in my opinion.

Gienchi Silk Studded Leopard Print Sneakers $400.00 luisaviaroma.com

Seeing these sneakers was a 'WTH' moment for me. Personally, leopard print on itself is fine, but to embellish can just be to much! Don't get me wrong, I love me some metal in my fashion, in this case though to garish. And yes, the above photos shows brand new sneakers, the worn or should I say dirtied look comes with the $400 price tag. Overall, these sneakers are not a smart investment.

One way to beat the winter blues is to think spring! Let me help you with that with these colorful and oh-so-chic clutches from Bottega Veneta. Clutches are not for evenings no more. An array of colors, shapes and sizes were on tote in a number of Spring 2012 collections making them one of the must-haves for the season. I came across Bottega Veneta's Memory clutch and just absolutely adored them. The woven leather gives it a luxurious texture and a modern look from the bright colors. I particularly love the knot clasp detail.
