Yesterday my good friend dropped by my apartment in the middle of the morning. She was casually dressed down to the bone, sporting her fedora, heavy peacoat trench-styled, jacket, Dr Martens, matched against her normal everyday bright smile. But I couldn’t help but to zoom in on her eyes. See, my dear friend has a thing for false eyelashes. She claims that wearing false eyelashes is just as addictive as applying layers of lip gloss. Naturally I had to process the thought of even wearing false eyelashes. Not only do I have bad habit of plucking my natural eye lashes away, but I began to wonder if I’d end up having the same problem if I gave this little trend a try. In the middle of the afternoon I made my way to the local drug store to see what options were …
Let’s face it, graphic prints play a heavy roll in fashion. Whether it be found on a mere T-shirt, or on a pair of pants you’d better be ready to gather your on how to blend this seasons collection of digitally inspired graphic print pieces into your spring wardrobe. I think what I love about graphic prints most is that it can either make or break your entire look. For example, Tie-Dye has been making a reoccurring appearance…and you ladies know how I feel about anything Tie Dyed. It’s addictive and flattering to pretty much any ensemble. Ok, so let’s get back to the center of today’s topic. The good thing about graphic pieces is that you can minimize on over accessorizing your look. Statement shoes & a clean basic accessories always come in handy. Ok, so what if you’re not into that …
Back in August, everyone ( with their brains finely tuned into this realm we call fashion) anticipated sipping on bottle water while munching on invisible super saturated buttered popcorn with the hopes of seeing their fairy godmother on screen. Yes it was your first shot at seeing Anna Wintour at her best on screen no less. Who can resist that shrewd look of annoyance and utter disgust? La Mer Lifting Face Serum couldn’t penetrate itself beyond that Teflon skin Anna wears so well. I wasn’t eager to slap my cash on seeing the movie in an actual theater, so I will fully admit (right here and now ) that I had seen the entire film online! Don’t ask me where because I would never tell you. As I sat up for an hour and fifty minutes on my couch (with my coffee in one hand and a cigarette …
A few days ago Fabsugar Australia revealed the latest designer collaborations Topshop has to offer online shoppers in the new year. As you know Topshop has been spinning out very stylish looks & collaborations with designer Christopher Kane this year. Now for 2010 we can all look forward to seeing designers Ashish, Ann Sofie Back, & Jonathan Saunders to dress the backs of would be shoppers starting next month. As you already know celebrities always manage to get first dibs on pretty much everything & anything. In November, Rihanna was spotted trekking around London in a fully studded sweat suit, which I’ve been searching high & low for (not because I wanted it, just out of sheer curiosity). Come to find out the actual sweat suit set has been created by none other than Topshop from their latest designer collaboration set. And I thought that we’d …

This year has been a very interesting year….trust me! I think that I’ve had my full share of seeing celebrities stream around town in nothing less than a pair of tights, pumps, and a jacket. It’s like everyone decided to opt out of wearing the necessary staple that completes an entire outfit. Hence Lindsay Lohan who went on a free-for-all self-promotion of her 6126 legging collection, which featured some very interesting, looks. However, she’s stepped out of bounds rocking oversized T-shirts & boyfriend jackets – pairing them with hosiery instead of her trademark leggings. Taylor Momsen is fashion’s renegade who has taken her love of thigh-highs to the outer limits. She’s been spotted on numerous occasions throughout the Meatpacking District in a pair of semi-destroyed fishnet thigh highs accommodated by double layered cotton T-shirts. …
