Looks to Love: Chanel Iman


Model Chanel Iman has legs for days! Like Beyonce said "If you got it, flaunt it!" She's thin, and it works for her. Chanel always manages to look "effortlessly chic" in everything she puts on and I love it. She's a great reference for smooth spring style.

Haute Stuff @ Gilt Groupe

I'm a huge fan of Alexander McQueen's work. His Spring 2008 Ready To Wear collection went on sale yesterday @ Giltgroupe.com. If you have the bucks to shell out, and if there's any product left [very desireable!] head on over to the site, here's a personal invite from me to join the in on the savings!

Attack of the CLONES: Balmain edition

Now all girls can get the Balmain look for less!Not all of us can afford $2000 sandals, while some may call these "knock offs", I prefer to think of them as making fashion "accessable" for all budgets.

Bird by Juicy Couture

Juicy girls Pam and Gela went back to the drawing board to create a new collection titled "Bird" by Juicy Couture after "Couture Couture", their line with an estimated 50% higher price point than Juicy Couture basically flopped. In this economy Juicy's intended client doesn't want $1000 jersey dresses. "The Juicy team showed the collection to press on Thursday at the Bowery Hotel in New York, highlighting the cashmere cardigans, denim jeans, leather jackets and knit T-shirts and tanks in colors such as black, gray and baby pink. The collection consists of about 30 pieces which will launch for fall in select Juicy stores, Bergdorf Goodman, Net-a-porter, Harrods, Maxfield, Holt Renfrew and other specialty shops. The collection will retail between $150 for a knit top to $600 for a coat. " The new price point isn't so high end put it isn't H&M either. Will you guys hop on the big Bird wagon?

Zara Trend Report

Unfortunately I over slept this morning and I didn't make it tot he city to shop the Matthew Williamson collection @ H&M. So instead I went to my local Zara to help my homegirl KK find a b-day outfit. No luck with that either. But I came across cute stuff that would be great from when the weather decides to warm up a bit. Here' my picks,


Soft draped strapless dress.

Tribal print strapless dress

Polka dot strapless [ I love dresses and strapless things if you couldn't tell]

Perfect summer plaid shirt. Great to pair with leggings

Boho jumpsuit

Eh hello? Balmain jeans! $59.00. I tried them on and they fit perfectly. I'm just against low rise jeans on shorter people like myself. I find that it makes our legs look 10X shorter. But jeans would be perfect with strappy platforms or sandals.

Matthew Williamson For H&M


Matthew Williamson's collection hits stores tomorrow! I'm super excited. This collection has been heavily anticipated, it's up there with the likes of the Stella McCartney, Karl Largerfeld and Roberto Cavalli collections for H&M. I intend on waking up extra early to go queue up in Manhattan. Hopefully I can get one piece. I'm guessing it's going to sell out within two hours. If I get my hands on anything I will definitely post it.

My Style: Party Girl

Photobucket
Top, skirt, & belt: Club Monaco
Tights: Victoria's Secret
Shoes: Cynthia Vincent

Chic Find: Flip Floppin'

The weather in NY sucked today, it was gray, cold, and rainy (booo!) Well brighter days are coming soon and what better way to be prepared for the sun with cute sandals! I found these fringe sandals @ American Eagle Outfitters and these Jellys @ Aerie, definitely chic for cheap. They come in pink, blue, yellow, and black. Last summer I had a really cute pair of clear jellys from BCBG. A rather LARGE woman stepped on the back on my heel while I was wearing them and the strap popped. I was devastated. I bought the yellow ones to replace them but I'm thinking about exchanging them for the grey.

AE FRINGE SANDAL $29.50

Rachel Roy Diffuses @ Macy's

Rachel Roy is one of my favorite designers and I'm very excited about her deal with Macy's to release a line with a lower price point. The looks are tastefully edgy yet sophisticated. Prices vary between $40 to $299 (I'm guessing for the leather jacket). My favorites include the black studded dress and the studded chain bag. Look for this collection in August at a Macy's near you.
