Chinese New Year just passed and since it’s the year of the horse, why not celebrate in style? With horse race season coming up, equestrian looks are hitting the runway and appearing in celebrity closets. Recently, Bruce Springsteen’s daughter, Jessica Springsteen, has been named Gucci’s equestrian ambassador for their luxury line of riding clothes.

Rebecca Minkoff

Rebecca Minkoff Fall 2014 Ready to Wear Collection was beyond street chic. She shined at New York Fashion Week. A great example for the New York city gal. It is a great for the fashion forward girl that can rock for that everyday look while looking super chic. "It's about taking menswear-inspired silhouettes and translating them into feminine colors and silhouettes."

Foodie Friday: Hot Fudge Oreo Cupcakes for JT Birthday!!

ImageAt Muse Me Style we are celebrating the one and only Justin Timberlake! Mr. Sexy Back just turned 33 years young today! We want to make a special treat for him! Here is the best recipe for the Hot Fudge Oreo Cupcakes!


Ingredients








































1 lb bag of oreos
¼cup butter - melted
Ice Cream - Favorite flavor
Tub of cool whip
Topping:
1cup chocolate chips
1cube butter
1tsp vanilla
1can sweetened condensed milk

Directions




Need a cup cake pan, lined with cup cake liners Smash oreos in a bag into chunks and crumbs - put into a bowl Add the melted butter and mix up Press crumbs firmly in bottom of cup. I used about 2 tablespoons per cup. Reserve at least 1 cup of the crumbs for later. Take an ice cream scoop and plop a scoop into each cup. I used Vanilla, but you can use any flavor Ice Cream you like. Use some of those reserved crumbs now - sprinkle over the tops Place about 2 tablespoons cool whip on top of the oreo ice cream mixture Now place that cupcake pan in your freezer. Topping: Mix together over low heat in a saucepan, until melted and combined (all topping ingredients) Once the Hot Fudge is all creamy and melted together. Pour about 1/2 cup of it into a little baggie. Let that bag of Hot Fudge cool for about 10 minutes. You don't want it Hot! *I pour mine right into the baggie, then place it in the fridge for 10 minutes. Once your Hot Fudge has cooled: GO GRAB YOUR FROZEN TREATS FROM THE FREEZER. Grab a little pair of scissors Snip a small corner of the fudge bag for drizzling. Drizzle that yummy Hot Fudge over the top of the Frozen Cream. Use as much as you like, but don't spill it over the sides of the paper cups. They will be messy to remove later if you do. Place the pan uncovered in the Freezer for several hours. When you are ready to serve them, simply . . . Let soften ever so slightly, Remove the paper liners and eat!

{Trendy vs Spendy} Designer-Inspired Ankle Boots

I wrote this post for Trend Hungry. See the rest of the post here.

Ankle boots and booties are an easy to wear shoe. This transitional shoe comes in a variety of designs, so they can be worn year round. There’s a pair to suit skinnies, jeans, dresses, or a skirt.

I’ve spotted three budget-friendly pairs that are just as stunning as these designer pairs. Below are three types – everyday wear, stiletto, and peep toe.

booties

1. Everyday Wear


Suede booties are perfect to slip on for an everyday casual chic look. Wear under a wide-leg jean or cuff your skinnies and let the boots be a focal point.

Nine West Otilla Pull On Booties for $139 now marked down to $49.99 vs Rag & Bone Classic Newbury Booties for $495

2. The Stiletto


Layer with a black tight for long, sexy legs.

Michael Antonio Mains Bootie for $59 now marked down to $44.95 vs Barbara Bui Smooth Leather Ankle Bootie for $780

3. Peep Toe


Layer a fun tight for a peep of personality on a chilly day or save this style for a warmer temp.

Miss KG Black Peep Ankle Boots for $135 now marked down to $39 vs Burberry Peep Toe Booties for $750 now marked down to $525

My favorite type is the stiletto. I love to wear them with my favorite pair of skinny jeans for a night out. What’s your favorite type of ankle boot or bootie? Share how you’d style this shoe in the comments below!
