Yeah, I know if you have been running around NYC in the past 72 hours – you’d know that it has been ba-ba-ba-BRICK! Chilled straight to the bones. But that doesn’t stop would-be trendsetters from showing major face, despite what Mother Nature has to offer. I so wish that I could push back the hands of time (to the month of June), where the temperature was just right. So yeah, then I woke up to realize that it is indeed December. Not only do I have to wait another three months for the Spring to come back into town, but I’m still hovering around the idea of copping a pair of lace leggings. I think what turned me off about this trend (initially) was that women were bearing a little bit too much of their assets to the general public. Plus I’ve got legs thicker than …
If there is anything I hate more, is the winter! Not only do I NOT want to go out and go shopping. But I am far from fashionably appealing during the cold three months that hover over the NYC tri-state area. So what is my favorite past time to kill the daily chill? Online window shopping of course! It’s like the next best thing to actual window shopping…minus the crowds of people standing in your way. Any how, I’ve been in complete awe thanks in part to BCBG’s Mendel bootie. These shoes have been on my mind for the past 48 hours (and going). The only problem is, that these bad boys are SOLD OUT! UGH…yes…SOLD OUT! So what is a girl to do? Search for the next best thing. So check out my latest wedge bootie picks after the jump!
During this time of the year I usually scan through numerous stores to see what’s available on the sneak forefront. It can be hard considering the piling droves of holiday shoppers rummaging through current inventory at local shopping spots. Through it all I manage to maintain the best way possible. And while I’ve been rocking my favorite pair of Ugg boots since the winter kicked in, my sneakers have been sitting quietly in boxes untouched. Nothing has been added in months to my small collection. And that’s because I haven’t been the least bit motivated on copping a pair of kicks. I haven’t spotted anything that has jumped out at me. That was until today when scanning the web. My eyes opened up on a pair of kicks worthy of a try-on (at least). The latest Nike Womens Dunk High Skinny is tricked out in a gold …
Since last year the internet has been burning up with heated debates over a young (and now famous) 13 year old fashion blogger named Tavi Gevinson aka Style Rookie. She’s already sat front row at numerous NYFW runway shows. Mingled with the likes of Marc Jacobs & Chloe Sevginy (just to name a few). The Chicago native has also been featured in a series of notable fashion publications which even includes Teen Vogue. And now the teenie-blogger has jotted down her candid views on spring 2010 collections for the January issue of Harper’s Bazaar (which hits newsstands Tuesday). Now I don’t know about you….but I am a bid ambivalent on having a minor writing a column for Harper’s Bazaar. Honestly, what fashion advice could I really get from someone half my age…right? Exactly!
Despite what I may feel, others feel the total opposite …
Ahhh…don’t you just love the holidays? I know that I do! For the simple fact being, I spend the majority of my days online hunting around for great bargains. Even if its not on sale all of the time. Yeah, I know that the recession has put the “kung-fu” grip on your usual spending habits. But like I always say, you live once! So you shouldn’t always restrict yourself from anything. Anyway, Kerin Rose has been doing the damn thing this year. Thanks to Rihanna’s ever evolving style change, Kerin Rose’s A-Morir brand has literally hit the scene in heavy rotation. One of my personal looks within the entire collection has to the be the “Love/Hate: Convertible Pearl Shade Eyeglasses in Black”. There is something about them that just screams seductive librarian all around the block and back. Right now you can cop them for $262, but wait! You’ll receive …
