Rent The Runway

November 10, 2009

What?!?! Really?!?! You can order a dress, have it delivered and then return it after you’ve worn it?!?!

I have countless dresses in my closet that I have only worn for one occasion, this is a girl’s dream come true!!

I have been embracing the statement necklace all season long, and I am happy to see that this trend is continuing for Spring of next year. From layered looks to chunky hardware, these necklaces were all over the Spring 2010 runways…

I loved this shot from the November issue of Parisian Vogue.

I love the Isabel Marant boots the most! I saw an imitation pair at Lord & Taylor over the weekend that only cost $275, a fraction of the cost of Isabel Marant!

Winter Coat Wonders!

October 16, 2009

I am a huge fan of a vintage fur in winter, but this year I am thinking that I should buy nice wool/cashmere winter coat that can last me for about 10 years.

There are so many styles to choose from! These are the ones that caught my eye thus far…

Also, Lula’s Issue 9 is filled with photo shoots of red-headed models, loves it!

So I am changing my costume again…. Alexander Wang’s Spring 2010 collection was inspired by old-school football days and it was so chic!

I am going to put a costume together to be an Alexander Wang Footballer!!

All I need is a french terry sweatshirt (or red and white striped shirt) with shoulder pads, tube socks and a leather headband!  Super excited to pull this look together!
