bonsoir! i do believe the parisan spirit has taken hold of me today.
my show synopsis for you today is marc jacobs. i truly adore marc jacobs collections because he is fashion forward. some designers talk about their working brining the past into the future, yet, marc jacobs is one of the few who actually winks at the past and nods at the future at the same time. his fall collection was and eighties showdown. bright neons and leggings galore. if you think pat benatar is so yesterday think again. many designers for the fall have revisited the eighties because many of the new up and coming designers grew up in those times. no, it was no the grunge eighties marc gave us. he gave us the eighties of fab and glam and guarntee that no matter where you go, love is a battle feild and with an outfit like his, you must be on the winning side.
his spring collection screams a few words; ruffles, sheer, sparkle, pearl, and flats. I do not believe their was a heel in the entire show. you may think this odd, but these flats are not to be juged on their size but on the content of the simple flair. many people where siting the seventies in the softness of his collection but i think romance had the biggest effect on his ideals for spring. (romance is big for spring). he also showcased quite a few bloomers. no these are not to be worn under clothes their far to fabulous. the chloe 2009 spring show also show cased some bloomers and it seems liek under wear is making a come back. check out the satin ones he pairs with sheer legings in a lilac, silver, and muave, ensemble known formaly as look number 35.
there is also some plaid. hint hint the youth of the east coast have become very fond of plaid (i.e. my peers) and it proves that we knew something you didn't know. in the end, however, it seems that my favorite part of all of marc jacobs shows are his coats. a good trench is a good trench no matter how you style it and if you dont believe me take it up with sherlock.
daily fashion tip_vaseline. i can not tell you how many crusty crackly lips i have seen as the weather is getting colder. slap something on them please! burt bee's has fantastic lip balm and if u want to keep it simple stop by cvs and pick up a chapstick. even if you have tiny lips, or luscious full ones, remeber that crust belongs on pizza not your face.

The Rose Door
good evening.
so flowers, they smell great. and dont give me that, i have allergies, you know you think their pretty.
well i like lanvin. no i cant afford a tibit of it but i think its pretty.
just a recap of their fall 09 collection; the colors stayed pretty dark and neutral. their was a lovely shock of red, a coat if im correct. yet, the black and darkness works for this collection because it compliments the hardware perfectly. im talking about the accessories my friends. hardware for day wear for night wear. its so big all you probably need to do is wear a trash bag and put your hair in a bun. (im kidding, you'd look like a total weirdo if you wore a trash bag and lanvin gems and bags.) you will definetly stop traffic. the clothes are world war reminiscent. the silhouetts date back to those hourglasses figures and the higher hemlines. the clothing is draped, ruched, ruffled, and strong. ohh and did i mention fur!?! i love fur! lets not forget that steaming sound track. fierce.
the resort collection however is light and flirty. long dresses. pajama shapes and flowers. birght colors and flowing shapes complete the look.
if there is one thing i can say for lanvin, its that no matter what collection alber elbaz put out, i always want one thing from each look. clothing lust, i thinks so.
daily fashion tip_are you feeling the chill yet? i certaintly am. if indian summers got you confused on wether to wear your summer stuff or pull out the fall goodies i've got you covered. remeber all those maxi dresses? well wear those with a wrap and some boots. who said you have to choose between seasons? take a hint from the beatles and come together.

I Like What You Got
ello love.
to day is designated designer friday, yeah!
time to meet rachel roy. the california native went to new york and gained an internship from rocawear. she started at the very bottom and eventually the creative director overseeing seven licences and running the design department and teams for all of rocawear juniors and girls. in 2004 she started her own line rachel roy and it had a glorious debut spring 2005. in 2007 she appeared on oprah and was inducted into the cfda(council of fashion designers of america). in 2008 she created a joint venture with jones apparel group inc. this year she she announced a jewelry collaboration with estelle and opened a special pop up shop in soho this month. now, rachel rachel roy, her line supported by jones apparel group, is available exclusively at macy's this very instant!! its lower budget collection and the clothes are youthful and edgy. the star pieces include a perfect leather bomber, bohemian fur vest, studded handbags, and neon purple skinny jeans. the most expensive item is $299 so frugalistas rejoice. key pieces and guilt free prices...ain't nothing wrong with that.
word on the street_fashions night out was a success. designers, photographers, muses, and models took over the streets. pop up shops, guest appearances, a clothing drive, and delicious treats, what more could you ask?
daily fashion tip_its been kinda rainy lately. like torrential winds and freezing cold temperatures. what ever happened to indian summer? some say it got sent to a reservation but that's a debate for another day. in order to combat the wind and the rain i've armed you with the trench. black and tan are the way to go sherlock, word on the street is gap has the simplest, durable cuts( i know i love my black, knee-length, double-breasted trench.) for flair try a graffiti trench from rachel rachel roy. it's investment piece.
