CLASH

I'VE GOT A NEW HEADER!SO READERS GIVE SOME FEEDBACK!And without further ado here's your weekly post:

Jimmy Choo shoes!Trying saying that 5 times fast. I saw these shoes in an ad from the curent American Vogue magazine...falling head over heels. (And no not literally). And listing the price would probably just make you scream....so I guess it'll just have to serve for nice eye candy.SIGH. The Marc Jacobs lace-ups are the second pic down and just a little somthing that I think expresses "the" Fall shoe.

P.S. Don't get discouraged by designer prices. There's great find out there somewhere! Try MACY's when they're having a sale. My mom and I were able to get a Vera Wang nightgown for a good price. You can also check out the SPECIAL ITEMS category on Marc Jacobs.com. There's a shirt that says "paradise" for only $30..but keep in mind that those items are only available at a MJ store. But still its nice to look at your options.

Here are a couple desirable mentions.....bags by Luella. She has a unique aesthetic in clothing, and I decided to check out her bags. Which just happen to be GORGEOUS. First, there's the bag with a label. Nowadays bags with a saying or label tend to be in high demand. And the second bag has studs, which has become rather trendy. Remember if you're going for a studded accessory select something that doesn't look tacky or is so overpowering that it might toughen your look.

Well, to me it seems that there is a trend that has not been truly noticed. Well...more like a chosen inspiration. This Fall it looks like some designers chose a culture/race as an influence in their collections. A mix of russian, british, roman, etc. The designers feautured are Vera Wang, Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, and others. Well here it is...and its something I like to call CLASH of the Cultures.

The Parisian with an attitude!(In the best sense of course)
