THE 50TH POST

I'm laying my cards on the table... thats translation for me answering your questions!
Here, NOW, in my 50th post!
Unfortunately the video refuses to upload so I will just have to type up my responses
First off I was asked about my hobbies, if I'm in school, and if I have a job.
Well Hobbies include:
*Drawing fashion designs
*Blogging (of course)
but I do check other people's blogs as well!
*Reading!
*Television which includes Project Runway, Ashley Paige:Bikini or Bust, and what will be THE RACHEL ZOE PROJECT (these are all fashion-oriented) go figure right?
*Recent venture: BOXING
a way to keep in shape and learn a new sport
SCHOOLING:
I am going into my senior year of high school
EMPLOYMENT STATUS:
NONE
(In other words I do not work, not an actual job that is)
HAHA
But I am definitely not spoiled
FAVORITE FASHION DESIGNERS:
Marc Jacobs, Vera Wang, Bottega Vennetta, and Alberta Ferretti
IF I HAD MY OWN LABEL MY NICHE WOULD BE:
Avant-garde
or being modern
but most importantly sophisticated!
I love to design dresses, but when I make designs I think of the whole picture, shoes, accessories, etc.
AND NOW FOR MY INSPIRATIONS....
PHOTOSHOOTS!
THIS MAGAZINE!
ELLE can almost NEVER disappoint me
It's photoshoots I love, its articles are brilliant, and it defines what is high-fashion.The one and only Christian Siriano, he's in his early twenties and acts as an unstoppable force, he has immense talent and qualities that embody a great fashion designer!

Here are some attendees I chose from the Louis Vuitton party honoring Rufus Albemarle and a party in the Hamptons.
Here, one attendee dons on the layered necklace look which coordinates and even boosts up this ensemble. This is what I mean when I say adding an accessory to something basic. When done correctly you can go from basic to simple done classic.

Next attendee....
he wears a fedora which I think makes a statement
It's not careless its laidback
and I think it works since this is a party in the Hamptons and its still summer

I'm not sure what to say about the outfit itself
but the shoes in the words of Rachel Zoe, are "BANANAS".

So I recently started looking into menswear, but I found that in these pictures it was more than the menswear that took me aback. It was the PHOTOGRAPHY itself, which was taken by Jennifer Livingston.
And these are utterly fantastic

A leather jacket on a man raves cool and suave!

FASHION SHOOT FROM W MAGAZINE
IT MAKES ME THINK OF FALL AND THAT MAKES ME VERY EXCITED
A NEW SEASON
ANOTHER FASHION






THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS
MUCH LOVE!

The BIG one...almost at my 50th post


~HELLO FELLOW READERS AND BLOGGERS~
Let's get down to business shall we?
First off I want to dedicate this post to my friend DIANE TAN
she is sweet, fun, and a great dancer (one of the best among my friends) might I add.
And I just hope that she comes back to the states soon!

Second, I want to thank those of you who told me what you had been doing over the summer in the last post. And as far as comments go, I read them all, and I am appreciative of EVERYONE who reads this blog!
Now for the post:

ELIE SAAB FALL 'O9
this is the collection pick of the week
My thoughts:
-classic
-goddess-like
-exquisite

DIANE KRUGER
is my attendee pick of the week
my thoughts:
-this hat has been seen more than once but I love it bc its her own personal touch
-simplistic but bold enough to make a statement
-just the fact she was present there....
Diane is such a natural beauty!



Introducing
KRISTEN STEWART


So, I was curious about this girl's style. Why? Well just for the record I like to look for new topics or people to discuss in my posts. Not that I don't love Rachel Bilson's style, or the Olsens, and all of the other note-worthy celebs. But let's make way for someone who isn't in the tabloids and magazines over and over again.
So in my search of Kristin Stewart, I wasn't impressed so much of her style but more of how much of a model she is. She gives this intensity in her eyes, like a model and is quite photogenic!


On the cover of a French magazine...
She was on the cover of last month's issue of Vanity Fair, sharing it with Blake Lively, Emma Roberts, and Amanda Seyfried.
Movie Still
from " In the Land of Women"
A captivating shot!




March '07 cover

The pose, the look, she IS a model!
Okay okay she is an actress, but if I didn't know that I would believe that she is one.
Kristen Stewart will be starring in TWILIGHT, but I am sure that many of you already know this. The movie will be in theatres 12/12/08. And I simply cannot wait!


Wrapping up this post...
is a VIDEO OF THE WEEK:
EARLY WINTER (by Gwen Stefani)
it is auditorially and visually beautiful!

Now for the absolute last thing!
YOU MUST READ THIS!!!
The next post will technically be my 50th post and it will be all about what is INSPIRATIONAL to me, which includes all you bloggers.
So I need to know if there are any questions you have about me or the blog and what topics you would like me to blog about. Remember I LOOOOOVE to research, so a challenge would be great!
