DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT

Remember the cute little designer who won season 4 of Project Runway? Would it help if I said he came up with the catch phrase "THAT'S SO FIERCE"? I'm talking about Christian V Siriano, a finalist who went above and beyond Project Runway. Not only did he show his fall and spring collections at New York Fashion Week, but he's also dressing celebrities like Lady Gaga and Victoria Beckham and designing costumes for movies like Eloise in Paris.

I wanted to take this opportunity to talk about Siriano's Spring collection for 2010. I appreciated Siriano's collection because he focused all of the pieces on three colors: beige, ocean blue, and fiery red. The pieces went from work friendly, after work drinks, to formal party savvy. Siriano used a lot of organza shapes, shapes that had flow to it. There were a lot of satin materials involved.

Can Siriano top this collection? I hope so! I can't wait to see what he comes up with!

Crazy. Fabulous.

Let's face it.  The Alexander McQueen Spring 2010 collection is crazy.  Outrageous.  If you haven't spotted his latest line, just check out the new "Bad Romance" video.  Lady Gaga is pretty much dressed head to toe in McQueen's insane inventions.  Since the line is so vast, I thought we'd focus on shoes.  

Don't ask me how those models walk in these.

 I have no idea! Props to you ladies!

Amsale Aberra & the Little White Dress

Amsale has really made a name for herself as a designer of couture bridal gowns that are simple, yet elegant.  Although her Fall '09 Bridal Collection didn't particularly catch my eye (too much tule and poof for my taste), I can't deny that Amsale has coined the term "Little White Dress." 

The LWD is kind of taking over--all seasons, all occasions! 

As you can see, Amsale's LWDs are simple and modern! 

I love her modern take on lace, and of course I'm all for a bubble hem on a classic babydoll dress!

Also, just because I couldn't resist! Here is bridal gown from one of Amsale's past collections (obviously not gaudy or tule-full).

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!

Goo-goo For GAGA!

This picture is a throwback to about seven months ago, but it still makes a statement.  Lady Gaga does bubbles like no other.  

Love her or hate her, you have to say she's ballsy....no pun intended. 

Or maybe it was.

Picture This!

Today was an oddly warm day for early November.  Quite spring-like actually...And it reminded me of music and vibrancy and, of course, this picture.  

I'm heading to the nearest thrift store to pick up those bangles and that oddly 80's top!  And on my way, I'll be playing "Music is My Hot Hot Sex" by the Brazilian band, CSS. Shout out to São Paulo!!

Tis the Season....

FOR SPARKLES! You can never have too many sparkles.....Okay that's a lie. The only people that can pull off an outfit full of sparkles are Lady Gaga and.....Lady Gaga. But touches of sparkles are perfectly okay. Sparkles are the perfect addition to your holiday wardrobe. Especially as winter comes along and day light savings time is become a drag; its helpful to have something you can find in your closet that will cheer you up!
Taylor swift glamorously rocks the right amount of sparkles. The sparkly skirt pictured below is essential because it can take you from evening to work.

On my way to the nearest Forever 21 to find as many sparkly pieces as I can!
