One of my favorite things to do is look at different fashion trends online, specifically on blogs and Instagram. Something I can't help but notice is that even people that can afford to wear real Versace are wearing Versace inspired pieces. It's like

Starting the New Year off with a bang and When Harry Met Sally..

Published on 2013-01-04 18:44:00

Yes, I started the New Year off with a bang. And I mean that literally. I had been sick since right before New Years Eve and I spent a few days resting but whatever infection I had in my sinus' spread to a terrible earache on Wednesday night. Well, o

Guess Ads in 2012

Published on 2012-09-18 16:15:00

I never really like Guess clothing much, but their marketing/advertising is always spot on.. and classic Guess ads will forever be my favorite. But 2012 was still a good year in advertising for them, they never fail to combine modern and vintage flawlessly. Some of my favs from this year:

Katy Perry really pisses me off (ELLE magazine September 2012)

Published on 2012-08-23 21:29:00

That's right. I said it. She makes me really mad. However, when the September fall fashion issue of ELLE came in the mail at first glance I thought I was really into her cover look. Upon further investigation I discovered she irks me even more. I think the reason why this particular issue bothered me so much is that in the spread her hair looks so "I never grew out of my goth stage" or something. I understand an artists need to be unique, but come on Katy, you are almost 28 and we all know you n [..]

Miley Cyrus being featured on my blog?

Published on 2012-08-21 20:57:00

That's right. Miley Cyrus is not in my normal topics of conversation but being a lover of hair how could I not mention her drastic new hairstyle. Hairstylist Chris McMillian who is famous for giving Jennifer Aniston the original "Rachel" cut, is responsible for Miley's new 'do. Earlier this month he cut her hair (twice), first into a long bob, then into a short asymmetrical cut, and colored her a very light blonde. It has been quoted that the hairstyle which was created in her home cost about 10 [..]

Lines I Love: BADACIOUS

Published on 2012-08-20 21:42:00

Anyone who knows how much I adore crazy earrings should probably grab their debit card because I just found the coolest line of earrings. Started in 2010 and based in NYC, Badacious is the creation of designers Kozue Badacious (CEO/Designer) & Ayumi Badacious (Co-Designer). Originally from Japan these self-taught designers have been using their Japanese heritage and music as sources of inspiration. The prices on these unique pieces range from 25-55 dollars with 7 dollars flat rate shipping for a [..]

Fashion for Curvy Girls: Peplums

Published on 2012-08-19 19:20:00

A 2012 trend that I'm loving right now are Peplums, but as a girl with a naturally curvier figure most people would advise me to stay away from them. I, however really love them (enough to have picked up a few pieces that I can't stop wearing) and find them flattering for most figures. If you are a girl who really embraces being curvy, but you maybe aren't a fan of your stomach, peplums are great at disguising that area while emphasizing having an hourglass figure. Peplums also work for girls wh [..]

1950s' Americana: Prada Spring 2012

Published on 2012-08-15 20:18:00

With Mercedes-Benz fashion week coming up in less than a month it seems like a good time to reflect on my favorite spring collection of 2012 which was Prada. You couldn't read a magazine in the past couple of months without seeing the colorful advertising of the Prada's spring collection which was heavily inspired by classic cars and the 1950s'.From the cat-eye sunglasses, to the full skirts and cardigans in pastels, to the vintage inspired swimwear, all the way to the quite literal use of the i [..]

Published on 2012-08-13 20:48:00

I knew wanted to make my first post back on this blog about hip hop's rising female star Azealia Banks, but it happens to be perfect timing because Azealia will be gracing Spin magazine's September/October issue.Azealia Banks is Harlem born and raised, and her first EP was just released in May titled '1991' after the year she was born. Yes, making Azealia only 21 years old and already changing the game up. The video for her single '212' cleverly titled for the area code of Manhattan has been cir [..]

I am yet another blogger to step up to my book reviewing soap-box to talk about "Girl Power: The Nineties Revolution in Music" by Marisa Meltzer. I have read alot of reviews of the book, and alot of bloggers have taken to writing about it. Well, you can add me to that list because I was so excited this past week when my copy arrived in the mail (I ordered it from Amazon.com).I am a girl who grew up during the nineties, and when I saw grew up, I mean I was a child.

Sorry for the long absence but the laptop has been broken, and the desktop hates Blogger for some reason. I am happy to be back, I hate not writing.The other day I heard 'Baby Love' on the radio, which immediately made me go download a bunch of The Supremes' songs. I can't think of anything better to listen to driving in the car on a nice sunny day than some Motown.I want to be a Supreme when I grow up (hahah). Don't they have the most amazing hair, makeup, and wardrobe? I included some performa [..]

I know 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' created the LBD and all, but what about the SBP (skinny black pant)? I love 'Funny Face', well I love both films actually, but this one is a little more underrated than 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'. I mean, come on, Audrey Hepburn, Fred Astaire, Richard Avedon, fashion montages, Paris, and Technicolor. What more could you want in a musical film?

In a few hours I am going to be on my way into the city for the night. I thought I would share some vintage pictures of New York City. It used to be so much more beautiful, but it really is such an inspiring and breathtaking city. I am proud to call it my home, I cannot wait til I can afford to move back. I am going to be staying with my friend Jenna until later on Tuesday. Looking forward to summer when I can stay for a bit of a longer trip, summers in NYC are the best.Thankfully, I will NOT be [..]

Raquel Reed has been on my radar for quite sometime now, but I thought now was the right time to post as she has just come out with her first music video, "The Fast Lane". Raquel is a model, make-up artist, and up and coming singer out of New York City. She is best known for her modeling but has recently put on her musical hat. I would say it will be a very short time til we hear her on the radio as she has been modeling for years and has a big fan base. In addition to the debut of her first mus [..]

You probably either love her or hate her, either way Lady Gaga has definitely caught your attention. I bet you sometimes wonder how you can be inspired by her look without getting arrested for wearing no pants or running to your local grocery store to impulsively dye your hair Platinum Blonde. Lady Gaga's new video 'Telephone' is pop culture at it's best and outrageous fashion heaven. I am going to give you some tips on how to make this look wearable and affordable at the same time.

So I had recorded 'The Killers' off of TCM and had a chance to watch it the other day. Not only was it a really great film, but it had some surprisingly interesting fashion moments.'The Killers' is a 1946 film noir starring Ava Gardner and Burt Lancaster. It was directed by Robert Siodmak and was Burt Lancaster's screen debut. It is partly based on a short story written by Ernest Hemingway. It was nominated in 1947 for 4 awards, for best director, best film editing, best music, scoring of a dram [..]
