Well…if  you know me, you know that I love No Doubt and Gwen Stefani.  My daughter and I have been going to their concerts in the Seattle area for over 10 years now.  And I, the older of the twosome have been listening to their music since Elvis died, jk.  But seriously, we are so excited that No Doubt is going back out on tour.  They call it their inspiration tour!  (trying to get that old No Doubt feelin’ back to write some new music) The fabulous four have not toured together in five years, Gwennie has been out  making donuts and babies, hee hee… not to mention doing a solo tour with some disco dippin’ dance hits.  If I was married to Gavin Rossdale, her hunky hubby of the super cool rock band BUSH, I would never leave the house either.  Anywho, my point?   Gwen is a fashion icon and someone you should always stop and admire.  Her complete fabulousity starts with a  line of apparel L.A.M.B., and her kitschy vintage self styled togs she wears while on stage with the boys.  Watch out Vivienne Westwood, Gwen is all over it and you!  Girl has it all…check her out, she’s my pick for fashion icon of the moment and future.  Stay tuned for my next mentionable fashionista!

As you may have guessed, I just took a little writing seminar, or writing exercise class if you will.  I am not a writer, never have been, I just play one on TV, jk…  So, I thought why not get a writer’s opinion on how I’m doing with my little blog.  I try not to be too critical of myself and I really do write how I talk.  Is that a good thing I ask, yes, yes it is.  Ok cool, I’m on the right track.  So how can I improve?  Well I really knew the answer to this; better word usage (the correct spelling for the right context, says the Chief of the Grammar Police, my husband), yeah,  yeah I know Dude!  Check and re-check with spell check, OK, OK!  Write about what you know and what you like.  I will never be the great amercian writer, I cannot and will not write fluffy fiction with soft flowing words and tons of metaphors, ick!  I write quippy and silly, “stick to blogging Katie”, good idea!  Read my blog if you like, don’t if you don’t…doesn’t hurt my feelings one bit.  Like I said I am not a writer, but Hey! my 7th grade english teacher Mrs. Larsen?, said “you have the gift of gab”, doesn’t that mean something?

Ok, I love Michelle Obama, BUT…is she a fashion icon already?  Hmmmm…well ok she is in the public eye, she is Mrs. President, she is beautiful, she is famous.  BUT I ask you, where are the fabulous accessories?  Somebody send that woman a killer necklace! Or how bout a big bright colored bangle with a big stone flower blinging all the way back to Illinois, or a fierce snakeskin clutch!  Something, anything.  Hey I know, I know she’s bringing back “Jackie O” ok fine, I loves me some sleek classic style, but Jackie had the shades and always, always a fabulous ring.  So come on Michelle, or should I say “stylist to Mrs. O” get some bling going on!  Not a lot and don’t matchy match of course.  Start out slow, Hey! start out with Oprah & O magazine’s choice, The Maximal Art Gold and Pearl Initial bracelet, hee hee… Hmmmmmm “M” or “O”, or both!  Yay!!!!!

Here at katiekay.com it’s time to add some new flip flop styles for the summer season, and HEY! I want your opinion.  Go ahead let me have it!  Take a look at the pictures and give me a comment below my blog entry. Bad, good, gotta have em, whatever! You decide.  Oka b are the most comfortable flip flops you will ever wear, with their molded footbed, one-piece construction , antimicrobial, waterproof, and built-in massage beads. AND bonus, made in the USA.  I have been selling the Dogwood Flower style ever since I discovered them at the NY show in January ‘05 and the ladies haved love them.  Oka b shocked me this year by discontinuing the dogwood, UGH! But, they added camelia and I already have stock in the gold.  Also, watch for 2 new colors to show up in my jeweled havaianas flip flops next month, black & brown.  Thanks so much for helping me out. And don’t forget to pick up your summer footwear here, at katiekay.com.  Shipping is on me!

Hello Friends!

Welcome to my new blog.  As some of you have probably noticed (I hope) I just recently gave my website a little facelift (a procedure, as they call it on Dr.90210, HUH!) and I deleted the cute little commentary area on the front page with my picture (the caricature above that my daughter drew of me).  I have decided to do a blog, everybodies doing it, huh! and I thought I would share with you some of my favorite things and people and websites and show you some really cool stuff.  So if you have time, I hope you will check in on my blog and give me some commentary.  Tell me what you love, what you loath and most of all share with us all your fabulous decorating and style tips.  See you on page 6.  More to come…
