Streetstyle: Boys Vs Girls
Wednesday, January 26th, 2011
Whose streetstyle do you enjoy more? Girls, Boys or Both? Who does it better?
I like being inspired by both stylish boys and girls but I really like it when I see a guy who is creative with his clothes regardless of what he wears. Girls have so many options when it comes to style including makeup (strong red lips for example can transform an entire outfit) but guys have to be a bit subtle in my opinion. What do you think? Do you think we have it easy when it comes to fashion and guys have a harder time figuring out their style?

A smile is a universal welcome
Thursday, January 20th, 2011
I love it when I see models smiling and it makes me smile too!
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows. And the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.
Audrey Hepburn
Wishing you a Thursday full of smiles and laughter! xoxoxoxoxoo

Fashion Industry Interview Outfit
Wednesday, January 19th, 2011
I find this quote from Matthew Hunt, the publicity director at Exposure US (who’s worked everywhere from Gucci to Burberry to Ford Models), great advice for going to an interview in fashion industry:
“You should definitely dress differently at a fashion interview than in the more corporate worlds of say finance or pharmaceuticals. However, presenting yourself as polished and professional is ALWAYS key. The team at Vogue is fashion-conscious, but they could just as easily walk into many different companies and look equally appropriate. Your look should always say, “I’m pulled together and organized–if you need to take me with you to a meeting with clients or top editors, I will fit in. I am ready to work at a higher level within your office, even if I am starting at an intern.” Your potential new boss should find it easy to imagine you in a more senior position.
That being said, in the fashion industry you can easily show up in a smart jacket paired with darker, more sophisticated denim and a great, clean pair of shoes and be ready to start immediately. Sharp shoes are key–they don’t have to cost a fortune, but most people aren’t impressed when shoes appear to be overly scuffed up and worn-in.”
Topshop SHRUNKEN RUCHED SLEEVE JACKET $110.00
ASOS Power Shoulder Tailored Boyfriend Blazer $112.06
Tibi White Boucle Blazer $250 (Julesb.co.uk)
ASOS Covered Lock Clutch $25.86
Rebecca Minkoff ‘Classics MAB – Mini’ Satchel $495.00
Warehouse Cigarette Trousers $82.75 (ASOS)
SCARLETT BLUE SUEDE PLATFORM PEEP TOE SHOES $135.00
House of Harlow 1960 Peacock Cuff $185.00
I love this look from Michael Kors Prefall-2011.
What do you think about working in the fashion industry? Would you like going to work everyday being able to express yourself or would you feel like there’s a pressure to look fashionable? xxoxoxooxoxxoo

Preppy Girl..
Tuesday, January 18th, 2011
What do you think about preppy style? Are you a fan? According to Wikihow, A prep is someone who cares about their appearance enough to look good — but not so much that they are superficial. They are clean cut, classy and sophisticated. Madewell Spring Summer 2011 lookbook.
I think sometimes calling someone a prep has bad canotations. But I think the idea of preppy style has changed over the years. What do you think?

Bright and Early
Monday, January 17th, 2011
Good morning my lovelies! I have to go to work but I’m in my best, chripy, happy clothes and I’ll be walking out the door with a smile. If you’re having a holiday today, enjoy your extended weekend..you lucky people. I think having a transparent coat to show off your outfit when it rains is such a stylish idea at Burberry!
Have a fantastic Monday, rain or shine! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoo
