TULLE PEACOATS HAVE ARRIVED!
We've just received the first colors in last years favorite peacoat by Tulle
We've received hundreds of calls and e-mails about the ever popular Tulle peacoat. Those lucky enough to receive one last year are well aware of the quality, style, and affordability of this coat. This year, they are cuter than ever in darling vintage colors, round collars, big vintage buttons and bold new patterns.
Our first shipment contained a stunning lipstick red, vibrant green, rich chocolaty brown, and two new hounds tooth patterns in black and brown.
They go up tomorrow...but you'd better not wait until the weather gets cold- They won't last that long!!

People Magazine's Style WatchUrbanMinx.com has what you're looking for!
In the September 2007 issue of People magazine, they rave about the hottest items of the season---and UrbanMinx.com has some of the hottest items featured in the glossy!
First and foremost is the amazing Tulle peacoat. This has been, hands down, our biggest seller. 
You absolutely cannot go wrong with this coat! The cut of the Tulle peacoat is very flattering with its fitted slim line. Two darling front pockets and retro collar make it perfect for every occasion. The cute vintage pattern in the lining and big vintage button make it stand apart from your mother's old peacoat. The wool blend will keep you warm all winter long and bold beautiful colors are very eye catching. No wonder celebrities like Halle Berry are grabbing their coats early this year....the waiting list is miles long! The best part? The coat is under $100!!! They will be arriving early this year at UrbanMinx.com so keep your eyes peeled. If you'd like to be notified when they arrive, send you name and e-mail address to website@urbanminx.com.

The second hot item People featured was the cosmetic line, Mor. They loved their fig and olive scent and recommended the line as a "chic find". The scent is not too strong and smells very clean. UrbanMinx.com carries the Mor Fig and Olive line in bath soaps, hand lotions, body lotions, and candles! Our favorite is the Mor Fig and Olive Sugar Body Polish. It will leave your skin exfoliated, soft, clean, and smelling yummy!Finally, People loved the denim line Chip & Pepper for your skinnies. The line is a great fit for all body types. We recommend the Chip and Pepper Stella Vanhorn Jean. It's a great dark wash, perfect for fall. Slight hint of stretch will hug your curves in all the right places!

LuLa by Angelica CotaAngelica Cota believes the right accessory can transform your wardrobe
Los Angeles Weddings magazine recently featured LuLa by Angelica Cota handbags as one of their top gifts for bridesmaids. The gold python embossed lambskin locket wallet and the mini crush clutch pictured above (both available at UrbanMinx.com) are perfect coin and lipstick stashers, go with everything, and the off center uneven heart is a great addition to a clutch.
One reason we love LuLa bags so much is the quality. Angelica understands that in order to stay at the forefront of the handbag industry, you need to provide quality products. All bags are handcrafted in America and are a wonderful blend of function and elegant materials.
It's no wonder Angelica has so many die hard celeb fans. Eva Longoria loves the clutches and hobos! [source]

Girly Florals Still Work Going Into Fall
InStyle has their eyes on girlish prints, and we agree! They recommend pairing floral prints with your dark denim or enhancing them with what and pastel tones. We recommend keeping the pattern light to keep from looking like a spring tablecloth. We're loving the new Mimi and Coco florals in red, white, and black. The dainty flowers are small enough to keep the pieces from going overboard.

"It's like Christmas morning in the beauty department whenever a new shipment arrives from wunderkind candle maker Douglas Little. All activities grind to a halt, everyone crowds around the box, and there are audible gasps as each black-satin-swathed item emerges from the depths. This new entry elicited raves on all counts, from the gorgeous, Middle Earth-like glass etchings to the incredible pepper-lemon, wet-herbs scent."
