this past weekend would've been a perfect time to visit new york with fashion week and the mtv vma's all happening at the same time.. but thank goodness for style.com which kept me up to date on the latest fashion shows... here are some of my favorites in order by designer from top to bottom... i just made an inspiration board over my lazy weekend that i've been meaning to post up but this should suffice in the mean time... enjoy!
Jill Stuart SS2010
There were other looks I loved like the detail of Vencava, shoes by Preen, & a few of Rachel Roy's classic pieces... but I'm beginning to feel an eye candy overload.
oh and here are some of my favorites from the MTV VMA 2009 awards.. my highlights of this night were definitely beyonce's single ladies performance- i was blown away- and giving her moment back to taylor swift :) oh and i heart alexa chung and still like kanye west.. everyone makes mistakes!
f21 body suit, f21 pleather shorts, michael kors boots, zara pouch
at
infusion lounge in sf, i got to hang out with
cassie best known for her single
"me & u" . but what most people don't know about this singer is that she's very sweet and down to earth and she is so much more gorgeous in person. i'm not too sure how i feel about her new hair do but i do like her humble spirit.
i had such a fun night that i'm glad i have these photo's to remember it.. the hangover today is also well worth it.. i haven't partied that hard since vegas. feels good :)
before & after
tango jacket, f21 shorts, bayo purse, heritage 1981 shirt, shoes from liv boutique, michael kors watch
i'm sad summer is over and i have no idea why wearing white is such a fashion faux pax after labor day so luckily this fun jacket i got years ago was laying in my trunk.. (what a difference it makes!) and even if i'm not one to follow rules all the time, it worked out since it really pulled this outfit together. i got the jacket and this purse in the philippines many years ago and love when you can revisit pieces you haven't worn and make you happy you still kept em..
anyway, speaking of the philippines.. after a relaxing long weekend i arrive at work today and look who's at the studio..
They're here to promote their
show in Tacoma, Seattle this Sunday, September 13th. So if you're a fan of the tv show
WOWOWEE like my mom and grandma check it out.
i don't have a side table so i guess you can say this piece I got from a hospice thrift store for $20 then changed the glass knobs from
anthropologie and repainted pink serves as that purpose. But definitely not a vanity or spot where I apply makeup.. Instead i place a bunch of knick knacks, everyday jewelry, perfumes, and scents- like the
anthousa home fragrance in bougainvillea that fills my bedroom. My photos definitely need to be updated, my favorite color is obvious and yes tulips are my favorite flower.
aside from my
maverick name necklace that's currently on my neck, these are the jewelry i switch off from day to day which includes my new
michael kors gold watch which replaced my
gold timex indiglo, my honeycomb ring I
love that I got in New York, a few funky rings, my prized
rolex with pink oyster pearls, my favorite gold hoops and of course my infamous
betsey johnson pearl dangle earrings I seem to sport with anything and everything. There would be a few more things in here that I've lost along traveling or drunken nights like my pearl studs or my mother of pearl ring that I adored.. but that's ok..
and this is what's inside my bag. since the last time i did a
purse content post i think i lugged around the world. nowadays, i keep it as simple as possible- just the basics- my pink wallet, my iphone, lipstick, gloss, eyeliner, sunglasses and keys. although i will admit, it does suck when i'd like to fit more things into this bad boy but it definitely helps in keeping out the excess shit you don't use. i for one hate bringing things that i don't need and since i'm usually on the go i think i've mastered the art of packing. plus, when shopping, the light-weight-out of your way- feature comes in hand when sifting through clothes or trying things on. i've had this bag for years and it's been a love/hate thing.
