so i've decided that your oldde enough to wlak on your own too feet. so today, your going to find your own new designer. it's time to go discovery channel on these fools so get exploring dora!!
daily fashion tip_treaded soul. yes the emo hipster writer thing is very attractive at the moment but im talking about this mirage of heel/boots that have been cloaking feet everywhere. in the spirit of adventurism, try a pair on. manolo blahnik has a pair with "lux-industrious lizard skin" vogue. even if your not excavating in egypt, these boots are flirtatious enough to be pretty but tough enough for the concrete jungle. take the hint from rosemary clooney and get to walking.
p.s. im gonna start adding picture! well i'll try. wish me luck
p.p.s. check out some of the blogs i follow. its a big world out there.

Hot Topic
omg! it's my tenth day of blogging!
guess what people, it's designer friday! todays' shining star is (insert drum roll here) michelle smith creator of milly by michelle smith. michelle smith was intrested in fashion at an early age so she followed her heart and attended new yorks' fashion institute of technology. she was exspecially intrested in european luxry goods so she worked at hermes part-time in manhattan. when she graduated she wrote a letter to hermes' presidnet and became the first american to be sent to paris for an internship by the brand. in paris she went to esmod, interned at louis vuitton, torrente, and christian dior haute coture. when she got home of course she formulated a brand that was, as she puts it, "synonymous with feminity and luxury..." gwyneth paltrow, and beyonce are two of the many famous coustomers that have rocked her designs. her clothing is only sold at bergdof goodman, neiman marcus, saks fifth avenue, selfridges, and barneys new york in japan. my favourites from her fall 09 collection are the wool elbow sleeve coat in a charcoal texture, a wool swing jacket, and a peakcock patterned dress. her resort collection has a coral barra cotton jacquard swing jacket and matching chain skirt. as for spring, miss thing brought out the preppy with a navy anchor chain cotton jacquard sailor dress. thats what good clothings all about.
on another note, what's a good outfit if you smell bad? sorry to be so outright about it, but if your funky, no outfit can hide it. only people in sweat pants or those excersising have an excuse. it's been found that the best way to cover a bad bo is a good fragrance. sure, there are tons of them, but when you find the right, one you'll know. if it's out of your budget, forget the price, just think of cost per wear value. if you wear it every day your hard earned cash won't be spent in vain. check out magazines for those fragrance pull outs and don't be afraid to rub them on your wrist for a test drive. the best fragrance is the one that makes you feel time has stopped and your mouth is watering. d&g has come out with a collection of fragrances, all of them are unisex fragrances, but they all have unique fragrance notes. my favorite, 18 la lune, smells like " hypnotizing white florals nestle agains an intriguing base of the softest, most exquisite pale leather. an envolopingly hypnotic lily and tuberose heart rests upon a textured base of sandalwood, musk, orris, and white leather. subtle, mysterious, utterly alluring." if descriptions like that don't make you want to buy a fragrance, then pop into your friendly macy's or sephora and tell the woman at the counter what you like and what your looking for. a good fragrance is like a good relationship, it should get better as the day goes by.
fashion tip_a hat. everywoman needs a hat. if you dont wear it all the time thats fine. but you need a hat. you might think ther for old ladies, but some hats can be pretty cool. berets, cloches, bowlers, fedoras, you name it. the hat is back. their great for keeping hair in place on windy days and they make you ten times cooler, cause lets be honest, only the suave rock head pieces.

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.
