Won't you come home?


Oh man I woke up with this song stuck in my head two days in a row! I suppose there are two reasons for this, 1. my sweetheart has been on vacation for the worlds longest week and i miss him so. 2. I still haven't found a new apartment and I have been referring to myself as the most glamorous homeless in all of NYC...I'd love to come on home and I have no problem paying the rent as dear Della suggests...but where the hell is it? lol That sounds a lot more dramatic than it really is but omg guys I'm hella tired of looking and waiting! I'm ready for stability in NYC again. sheesh!

No Changes at Chanel, Big Changes for me!

Chanel has confirmed that Karl Lagerfeld ain't goin no where! It makes sense though I guess, if he was leaving Chanel he would probably make a grand exit. Wamp Wamp to the rumor mill. Lol.



In othere news, I got a new job!!!! And so far I am completely in love with it. I forgot to tell you I quit macy's a couple of weeks ago.... Best impulse decision ever!! I started my new position as receptionist/ showroom assistant at Madison Brands, a Jr's woven's company today. It was hella cool, I'm really looking forward to learning all about the fashion industry at my new job! It just goes to show if you take a risk it could be well worth it! Keep the faith people. Next step: get a new apartment! Yay! Everything is falling into place!! Go 2010!!

Thanks for all your prayers, good vibes and well wishes darlings!

p.s. Suck it haters! yes I do have them, check my formspring. lol If you think your bitter now wait till you see whats next...You may not know how to act... :)

Goodbye to Unkie Karl and Bonjour Oncle Alber?!?!


Nothing is confirmed yet but there are tons of digital tongues wagging, including mine, as to what will happen with creative direction at french fashion house Chanel. Everyone is saying Alber Elbaz will replace Karl Lagerfeld and soon! Karl Largerfeld has said many times he will never retire but he can't go on forever! Plus I'm kind of getting sick of him. Don't get me wrong theres lots to love but this last collection I totally hated for the most part.


First I thought it was an overuse of real fur then when I found out it was faux fur I still couldn't shake my feelings of disgust. If the line continues down this path I'll be tempted to throw shade at them again and I don't wanna do that!Like most fashion lovers I have been programmed since my early days as a young magazine flipper to love Chanel.


I'm a big fan of what Alber Elbaz has done at Lanvin. Maybe he is the breath of fresh air that Chanel has been gasping for? They say the truth will be unveiled in the next two days or so and I for one am soooo curious as to what will happen with our dear Chanel.

Big Hair, Big Glasses, Coincé Dans La Cabine Photo



I got new glasses! I went on strike from my flat iron! And as a result I have found myself once again stuck in the damn photo cabine! I can't help it I love that page...It understand me and its free. Who could ask for anything more.



I feel like I should be giving you some sort of personal update with these up close and personal pics but I'm sorry dumplings I'm just not gonna do that. I am going to finish getting ready to get the hell out of my house instead.

Don't be salty! Go to the photocabine instead! www.laphotocabine.com

♥ Jusqu'à la prochaine fois chéris!♥

Alexander Mcqueen Fall/Winter 2010

Although our dear Alexander McQueen has been laid to rest a presentation of his last collection went on without him. It was said that light sobs were heard throughout while his last and possibly finest works were displayed. I cannot blame anyone for crying. While I aim to celebrate his work and life in this post when I first saw the photos, I felt more than one tear drop. The entire collection is breathtakingly beautiful and I encourage you to visit style.com to see all the photos provided by Christopher Moore. These 7 looks are my favorites of the 16 piece collection.


Is it hard to see why this one is my favorite? I would rock the hell out of this dress and especially the shoes!!! Don't even get me started on that neck piece...


I wish I could get closer to this fabric..


Love love love the watteau back!


This sculptural suit had me floored.


Never have i wanted to wear a wall tapestry so much in my life and the boots too. Ugh I could really get down with those boots..


I hope someone wears this majestic cape for a portrait that will go over their mantle or hung in some kind of cavernous hallway...I would if i had said mantle or hallway. Actually I would wear it as many times as I could justify.




If an angel had to attend a black tie affair, I'd imagine she would wear something like this. It is truly a piece of perfection that only McQueen could create.

He will be so dearly missed....

FSV: YSL Women's Fall/Winter 2010-2011


Yesterday Yves St Laurent released a little teaser video for their Women's Fall/Winter 2010-2011



And today they released the actual show. Yay!!

Here are my key points from the show:

- sexy nun?? I'm feeling it

- I love the long belly touching chain and medallion, very friar-esque

- Religious, well Catholic inspiration is back, but sleek an sexy

- Full on friar dress at 4:13!

- Lets call it clergy chic

- mmmm yes so much black!!

- Love the sexy sheers at the end

- I just got murked by the purple sheer cape number at 6:44...I mean I'm totally dead now

- Woudlve love to see that blue shoe introduced earlier in the show,never the less in total love with the shoes

- I personally welcome the return of that floppy hat

- The feather neck ruff is swoon worthy

- Holy honey comb-ish cape at 9:30 batman!

Over all the YSL Women's Fall/Winter 2010-2011 collection is amazing! One of my favorites for the season so far. I mean its not very climate appropriate at all but I don't mind in this case because I have truly come to hate the winter.

* Side Note : Maybe its just me but every time I look at the little tape icon by the "15min" at the end of the video it looks like a face to me and I LOL. *



**For those of you that didn't get my abbreviation in the title that stands for Fashion Show Video. Remember it because I'll be using it again**
