WWMKD?


"Summer Glam Disco Trend"

People are starting to catch on!
Here's what's new at French Connection.. pretty much the only store (that I've seen so far) that's offering the 70's disco dress style! Pleated chiffon maxi dresses yummmmyyyy

Also, BCBGeneration's purple maxi is pretty cute too.... hmm..

The prices are a little steep... but seeing as I can't find it anywhere else... eek I might fall to pressure.

SHELBY'S SUMMER MAXI DRESS
BCBGeneration Ruffled Flounce Maxi Dress -$158

SHELBYS SUMMER MAXI DRESS

Of course the 2nd Shelby's summer dress is SOLD OUT. the one I really wanted.

Crying.  I am now on a mission.

***UPDATE*** Oops I found the "swans down color" summer maxi dress  on Zappos, there were only 2 left in a size 2. I panicked. I pictured spending the rest of the summer without looking like I'm going to prom in 1974.

Le sigh. I also removed the cost of these dresses from my post, due to shame.

In the words of Carrie Bradshaw, "I HAVE AN ADDICTION, SIR!'

The Look For Less

My friend Allysa found this amazing dress on Shopbop.com.

I am obsessed with it, and got really sad that I can't afford it.

But I found one for a LOT cheaper!!! and you can create the same look-

Raleigh St. Clair Blazer Dress - $1,095


ASOS Tailored Blazer Dress - $48.41
with a SEQUIN Bandeau top!

Nicki Minaj - Super Bass

Why do I like this song!?!?!

And the video is kinda dope... if you like pink... like me.



Blaze It Up

Zara Blazer + Skinny Trousers



Bianca Jagger in YSL

I'm getting this pink blazer.  And I'm getting those pants in matching pink.
And I want an all white suit. So YSL.
I don't care what you think.


Neck Access-ories

Me: "Are these cute?"

Bobby: "Yea if you're one of 4 wives and live on a farm in Utah."

Me: "So if you're Chloe Sevigny."

I don't care.

#1. Chloe Sevigny is amazing

#2. These bowtie looks rock my face off.

Take a white blouse. and a scarf.
Brooch - Asos.com


P.S I'm totally D.I.Y'ing the middle one.

Us*trendy.com

I just found one of the coolest sites I've seen in a while.

ustrendy.com is a site for independent designers to sell their clothes online.

As apposed to Etsy being mostly "arts and crafts", Us*Trendy is all about fashion, and what's in style right now.

Designers post their creations on the site and if you're interesting in purchasing it, you can customize your size and even make you're own suggestions if you would like anything done differently.

Here are some of my favorites so far--

Cream open back dress- $79 -Designer: Lina Pliuraite

Uh hello the dress I've been looking for- (maybe a little less form fitting and long)
Classy Red Dress- $150-Designer: Jackie

Gold Sequin dress - $89- Designer: Kami Shade
Silver Sequin Gown - $119 -Designer: Kami Shade
Lace Tunic Dress -$112 - Designer: Kelly Madden

Now just for a site where you send them a picture of something you want, and they make it.... hmmm...  ondemand clothing...

Going Back To The West Coast

To all my Monster Ball friends, I'll never forget this experience with you.xoxo


70's Glam

I've been searching for a couple months for this look -


70's summer disco glam.  I would essentially want to dress it down for everyday wear... so I would probably have to lose the sequins/shimmer.
People are starting sport this look, but still, it's not available for the "I-can't-spend-more-than-$200-on-a-dress" shopper.

SJP in Halston Heritage



Rebecca Hall
Mary Kate 2008 Met Gala
Mary Kate Olsen Met Gala 2011
Nasty Gal dress- $98
Revolve Clothing - $220-- don't like the garbage bag fabric look...
LuLu's Cobblestone Road Black + White dress.. a little kimono-ey






Any suggestions?  I really want to go for Rebecca Hall's look, in a silk/satin material....

Lady Gaga - You And I

This performance is amazing, but more importantly, this is one of my favorite hair creations I have seen on her.  It was created by one of my best friends,  Frederic Aspiras, who is one of the most talented artists ever.  Love the full, xxxLong blonde hair-- not to mention that her mask is made of HAIR! A lot of work and passion that went in to the beautiful creation, which made the performance even more special.

Check out her performance on Oprah this past week!
