Kourtney is by far theFLYESTsister, she gives me life everytime she steps on the scene. When I saw these pictures the first thing I noticed were her shoes - GAG! They are Christian Louboutins (thats a given, peep the red bottoms) SUPER DOMBASLE which are apart of his Spring/Summer 2011 collection, retail value - $500+
Now if you're like me and refuse to pay anywhere close to $500 for some shoes you will appreciate these similiar styled & less expensive shoes below. Enjoy!
These are all Aldo shoes & the price range is $60 - $124, definitely reasonable.
Come fall you will be able to afford Versace and you wont need to give an arm or a leg to do so. Donatella Versace is the latest designer to collaborate with popular retailer (& my personal fav) H&M for a collection debuting later this year.
The collection is set to go on sale November 17, 2011 in about 300 H&M stores - I'm sure it will sell out in no time. Another collection - pre spring - will debut January 19, 2012.
The collection will include the fashion house's signature party dresses, filled with studded embroidery & bold prints. Versace will also feature designs for men as well as home decor pieces, including bedspreads & pillows.
Previous high-end designers who collaborated with H&M include Lanvin, Karl Lagerfield, Stella McCarthey, Jimmy Choo, & Comme de Garcons.
Yall know I absolutely love H&M but I'm not a fan of their collaborated lines. I'm not really a designer junkie....sure I love signature & classic designer pieces but I wouldn't spend my last on the latest designer trends - Herve dresses & Christian Louboutins. In general I don't follow trends so these treads wont be of any use to me, I rather give my spot in line to someone who appreciates these items more.
To be honest I think the value of the designs depreciate when you collab with lower-end retailers, i.e Target, JC Penny's, Marshalls, etc....not knocking any of these retailers or the people who shop there, I'm just saying. I wish some people would focus more on being an individual instead of being a "label whore" - trying to keep up with the Jones', follow trends, and spend your last just to say that you have a Versace dress is frivolous and shallow, but who am I to judge?
Anywho, I commend H&M once again for being able to expand their brand and offer their shoppers a once in a lifetime experience....
*DISCLAIMER* These are just my thoughts - right or wrong - just what I was feeling at the time.
So I never really been into maxi dresses/skirts but I decided to give it a try & put my long legs to use, and......I like it!!! There's a lot you can do with them as far as accessories go...they give you this boho/hippie look that is so cute (in my opinion)...as you guys can see, my "style" is all over the place, I do many different things, and not one style can really define me....I like to reinvent myself and try things I normally wouldn't do...having this new job with the dress code restrictions has actually been a blessing because it forces me to dress how I normally wouldn't....my creativity is being pushed & I love it - I live for these types of challenges.
I have a challenge for you guys...this week try something you normally wouldn't do, whether its something different with your hair or the way you dress....see how you feel at the end of the week, even if you don't like it, at least you tried and now you know what works and doesn't work for you.
I absolutely LIVE for bright vibrant colors. I work in an office during the day where the dress code is business casual and I use to think dressing like that was the most boringness thing on the planet - I didn’t believe my creativity and uniqueness could thrive in that environment until I gave it a shot. When I think of business casual plain Jane comes to mind, which can be far from the truth. Although you have a set dress code you must adhere to, you can’t allow your environment to completely restrict you from being you.
Basically business casual is a happy medium between business business (suit, jackets, ties, etc.) & jeans and sneakers. Jeans and sneakers are a big NO NO and there is absolutely no way to dress it up, however you can most definitely dress business attire down, i.e. mix & match suits. When it comes to what to wear to work I keep is simple and cute: if it not jeans or sneakers I’m good [lol] of course there are other rules like make sure its not to short, too tight, or too revealing, but those aren’t really my style anyway so for the most part I’m good. I tone it down a little but not too much so my personality still shows. Accessories are an absolute MUST!!! They can turn any outfit from blah to BLAOWWWW!!
You just gotta be creative and let YOU shine. Don’t feel like you’re put into a box bc you aren’t. I’ve come to realize that there are tons of fab clothing fit for the office life, you just have to embrace it.^^ ^^
I think I need a barber, none of these bishes can fade me!
GAG...GAG...GAG...GAG #thankyoubasedbey
The queen of hair flipping and fierceness has done it again. I absolutely love Beyonce’s new video for the “Run the World.” Aside from the amazing dancing the fashion is to die for or GAG worthyas I like to call it. Here’s a breakdown of the fab threads she worn throughout the video…..
I usually don't do product reviews but I felt so inclined to do so. Finding a mascara that works and does all the things its advertised to do is extremely difficult. I've gone through my share of mascaras, from MAC to Maybelline and I'm always left disappointed, until a good friend put be on to Voluminous Million Lashes by L'Oreal. When I say this mascara is everything I hope and dream for when it comes to mascara I mean it. My lashes have never been so long and full, without the clump since forever! And for those who are addicted to false lashes you might want to start using this because you can achieve the same dramatic effect without jeopardizing your own eyelashes....just a thought! #thankmelater <3
