Victoria Beckham and Roland Mouret:The Little Black Dress Collection

The Little Black Dress Collection

So far, there are no "little black dresses" in the whole entire collection.
Victoria Beckham decided to work with French designer Roland Mouret to create a line that outshines all other denim and accessories lines ever done by Victoria in the past.
Recently, Jennifer Lopez shined in one of the dresses designed by Mrs. Beckham.
What do you think?

Fashion Friday (Outfit of the Week)

Yellow Sweater: Charlotte Russe, Black Cami: Urban Outfitters, Purple Jeans: Urban Outfitters, Giant Bow in my hair: forever 21, Boots: forever 21, scarf: icing stores

So, I thought I would start an outfit of the day. That was before I realized how incrediably mediocre my camera skills are. I will attempt to have quality pictures..but no promises as I have not found anyone willing to take pictures of me for me. Ignore my hair, because I took these pictures when I woke p before I straightened it!

So sorry that one picture is of me and the other is not. I own those jeans, but I need to take a picture of them once I put on my PJs:)

Ontoplist

Helllo everybody! Remember me? The girl who used to write this blog?
Haha it's been a little while...just wanting some followers to inspire me!
Anyway, I recently put my blog on the ontoplist directory in the shopping section ([it's the only section they had closest to high fashion]), so here is the link to my blog and millions of others (humbling, isn't it?) like it.

Iekeliene Stange--and freaks who get paid to look bad..?

I am kind of frusterated that most models cannot dress themselves for their lives without the help of a stylist. It just aggrivates me! Thankfully, models such as Iekeliene Stange have an amazing style that I admire. It's really lunatistic--if such word existed (webster, look it up, please), vintage, and fun! Frankly, because I'm, well, me, I could never pull off most of what she does, but that doesn't stop me from wishing I could!

French Vogue: Lara Stone

Usually I don't throw my two-cents out there when it comes to things that have little to do with fashion, and more to do with the public's opinion, but I just couldn't resist as soon as I heard about the French Vogue "scandal". I think we all know how much Vogue pushes the envelope very often, but for the past, say, 48 hours, Vogue has been under fire about the recent issue. Rather than Naomi Cambell or Tyra Banks, they felt the need to have Dutch model Lara Stone painted in "black-face", meaning head to toe black body paint. Her lips are fuller and her eyes also made darker. In my opinion, the layout is stunning, and the makeup is supurb, featuring pieces by Alexander McQueen and Comme des Garcon, but there is so much controversy over using black-face on a normally pale-skinned, blonde model. On the opposite side, people are admitting that the French love African American women, and this was taken way over the top. Isn't Vogue usually a respected high fashion magazine? I'm throwing all the facts out there...no real opinion other than the gorgous clothing and makeup.

Street Style: Fear the Feathers

It certainly takes nerve to pull off Leigh Lezark's take on the Feather Trend at the Paris Fashion Week. She's wearing a Giambattista Valli peacock dress, and I have to say she did succeed in pulling it off. Her jet black hair made the whole look seemingly endless.

There really wasn't a more appropriate time for Blake Lively to pull of the Feather Trend than, of course, at the NY premiere of Where the Wild Things Are. I wonder if Blake knew that you didn't have to dress like one of the movie characters to get into the premiere...

Besides the unfortunate coincidence of dress and premiere, Blake certainly pulled off the feather trend with the variation of black lace and feathers, on contrast with her blonde hair.

...the feather trend...

Altamira NYC: Craig Arend (a.k.a a tribute to the skinny jean)

I just wanted to formally (or as formally as possible) applaud fellow blogger Craig Arend. Frankly, he is amazing. This is all this photography, which he is brilliant at. Not only this, but I love his blog. These are all his pictures featured above. I chose these to show because of my favorite trend--the skinny jean, of course. The jean "back by popular demand" shipped straight from the 80's. Gee, I hope we remember to send a thank you card...

Anyway, be sure to check out Craig's blog: http://altamiranyc.blogspot.com/

"Keep it slim yet comfortable. The combonation of the cotton and Lycra material create a material duo that's unbeatable. Just think. The look and feel of a jean, but the comfort of a legging. It's pants-tastic and punk rock to boot! "

Leather Craze

You can find this season's style just about anywhere. Lovely baggy cardigans and chunky belts weren't started here. It seems that style has almost gone in a circle..and so the ones who could never keep up are now at the head of the pack. I have to say the leather pants is a refreshing change from last seasons leather legging craze. Phillip Lim in NYC showed leather tank tops and tee shirts tucked into tight shirts or baggy pants. Oh, people and their love of leather.
