Chanel Pre-Fall: "Moscow on the Seine"

2008-12-05T15:18:00.000-08:00

If any of you dahlings haven't watched the show or seen looks from Chanel Pre Fall, I insist you do now. Now, Chanel isn't my favourite house of fashion, not even second. It has great LBDs but (sorry! but i like it, just not a bundle) the palate has seemed just Grey, Black, White and maybe a pastel here and there. I respect Karl Lagerfeld a ton and Pre-Fall made me totally adore him! The palate here is a bright yet still sophisticated red with golds and a navy or wine here and there. To boot there are gorgeous accesories such as intricate head pecies and fur stoles. <3>S

I wouldn't call it a knockoff but..

2008-12-01T17:24:00.000-08:00

Yeah my hand is better(and Veronica thanks so much for caring! You made my day!) so Stephanie Rose reporting for duty! I was flipping the The Boston Globe on Sunday and came to a fashion part. There was a dress I knew at first glance MUST be Anna Sui (from her Fall 2008 collection). Upon looking I relized that this was from Urban Outfitters. I mean, can that be considered a knockoff? Its so exactally Anna Sui!! Oh well, Its SCANDALOUS. oh and I want the $58 urban outfitters dress because I can't afford the Anna. And I don't consider it stealing because its not a knockoff technically. No regrets so....lets buy up!

XoXo.

A Fashion Favourite

2008-11-15T17:34:00.000-08:00

When at Barnes and Noble, the bookstore with an astounding number of local and international fashion magazines, I usually get myself into the predicament of what to buy, if only one. A few months ago I picked up Nylon, the more artsy-fun fashion magazine for a younger fashion lover. I flipped through and was immediatley in love. So perfect; awesome outfits, great articles on things that magazines like Vogue or Elle (they always include articles about Botox or any cosmetic surgery) wouldn't normally include, i. e. how to have FUN with fashion. Vogue and Elle always seemed sort of contrived, to old and very in-the-lines. Yes they had some great haute couture shoots and Yes, Vogues issue with SJP was fantabulous but c'mon! Nylon focased not only on celebrities relashionships or such ( I mean, I really don't care!) but the things that the celebrities have actually accomplished. And to boot, each of Nylon's monthy issues are dedicated to a specific topic, i. e. denim or it girls or musicAfter buying this one issue I immediatley subscribed. Thank You Marvin Scott Jarrett,
NYLON KICKS ASS!

So, The other afternoon I was scrolling through Chickdowntown.com 's fabu sale. (40% off with code VETS40, now reduced to 30% off with code 30PLUS) and a cute Nanette Lepore Dress caught my eye. As I looked closer though I realized it was not only "cute" but TO DIE FOR!!! Priced at $235 (without sale price) I looked at this as affordable. Seeing as my only sources of income are babysitting and other forms of legalized slavery I am deciding to post-pone this necessity purchase to Friday, when the 30% sale will still be going! Unfortunitley I realized all of Chickdowntowns stock on this item is SOLD OUT, so I checked and Barney's NY still has it for a price in the same vicinity of Chick's.
Wish Me Luck On My Purchase! {and plz, if you read this LEAVE a COMMENT cuz its :'(ening when there are no comments}

I WANT IT NOW!

2008-10-26T10:13:00.000-07:00

So since forever I've been wanting a PLAY Comme Des Garçons tee. Y'know with the heart face? The tee is just so french. Je le veux si mauvais! So, I checked out the obvious retailers such as barneys or shopbop. Of course, for a new version it may cost around $125 USD. Now I know that is not very bad in such an expensive fashion market but c'mon, I could buy a ton of vintage pieces for that much. So I checked out Ebay. Buying from total strangers across the US may sound somewhat sketchy and, yeah, it kinda is. But I found some great prices for the coveted tee like $10 [$13 shipping] ranging up to $30. Getting myself a PayPal account soon and with a few clicks that amazing tee I've been wanting FOREVER will be mine!!!
Oh and again, in November, H&M debuts a great new line in partnership with Comme Des Garçons.

The Thing That Has Been [or is] Pissing Me Off

2008-10-26T09:20:00.000-07:00
1. The self -declared popular girls in my school, y'know the abrocrombie-clad-salad-a-day-im-a-royal-slut-elitest girls have stolen me and my friends choice of footwear: Converse. Now the group im in at school...well i dont really even know..like drama/artsy/funny/awesome ppl i guess, well we all Converse. Period. and although The Six's [Yeah i know, thats what they call themselves, it used to be sexy six but then they relized they weren't sexy :)] converse are all bubble gummy pink and clean white while ours are bright in your face yellow with writing scribbled all over the tops or a cream that we've splatter-painted ourselves, it still makes me mad. So recently my friend Lydia found a bumper sticker on facebook to showcase our angst. It reads: "We don't wear you Abercrombie, why are you wearing our Converse?" Period. So any of you Six girls reading this, get OUR Converse off your EFFING french-pedicured feet!!!

I Love Balenciaga but...

2008-10-24T11:59:00.000-07:00

I totally adore Balenciaga. I have 1 problem with it though. Doesn't it seem like the same silloette season after season? Spring 2008: Nicolas' revaloution: The floral futuristic dresses/pants/suits. Yes, they were totally avant-garde and I personally j'adore the print but Fall 2008, same futuristic look. Yes a bit altered on the print, color, material but still. And now Spring 2009, SAM E SILLOETTE!! It is quite bugging that Balenciaga is so predictable now. Maybe good ol' Nicolas will change it up a bit. **fingers crossed**

Don't You Just Love...

2008-10-17T12:57:00.000-07:00

...The Paris Lanvin store window? So chic! I have been dying to get to Paris from day 1 and sadly don't see it happening in the near future. :'(. I even learned french in hopes of going. Not fair at all. But in the mean time I'll just stare at this picture and perhaps buy a few pieces from his spring 09 collection.

Next, don't you all just <3>
I also j'adore Sonia Rykiel's hats. In fall 08 she did a fabu felt bowler hat and in spring 09 a chic sequined beret. I mean, sequins can make u look so much like a drag queen or walking disco ball but Sonia ttly make me love them. (pictued at top)

Buget Fashion Forcast!

2008-10-10T12:32:00.000-07:00

1st of all... H&M has a Comme Des Garçons line out in November! This line will debut in early November but should be at most H&M stores by mid-November. Next up, Model and Alexander Wang's muse Erin Wasson has a line out for Opening Ceremony. The line consists of bleached, shredded denim shorts to accessorize with suspenders, dove grey zip-up jumpers or chic floral mini-dresses. The line is called ERIN WASSON X RVCA, in collaberation with RVCA the surf and skate brand. The price ranges on both lines go from about $20-$230 so buy up before the holiday rush!
