Actions speek louder than Coach(es)

I'm slowly but surely accepting the notion that heat and humidity are in my personal forecast. What better way to have fun while I'm teetering on the edge of beach season, then to e-shop for swimwear! Though this brings up new issues of tanning and toning; I found some really nice things and some stunning atrocities.

D&G never disappoints me. They always know just the right bronzed Deities to put in just the right deliciously unsuitable outfit. Perfect for male model; impractical for me, but given the right circumstance, I'm all up in that outfit.

Now the Mcqueen spring 09 outfit however, I don't remotely want to wear but again I like Looking at it. All of my friends with perfect bodies need this immediately.

Haute Happy Day...

Jalouse Magazine Jan. '09

Yesterday afternoon I discovered that a share a birthday with Nicole Trunfio. The only thing I know of her is that she's the current "mentor" for the female contestants of Bravo's Make Me A Supermodel. After many minutes of googling I've decided that she's fabulous and I have a few questions for her. One of which is, why are our horoscopes always so random? (Given that you follow them my dear)! In honor of Nicole I wanted to show off another inspired piece that rocks as hard as any prideful Pisces.

I would absolutely own these spiky Louboutins if I were a woman....and of course if I put on anything other than converse with any regularity. So of course I had to translate that edge in moderation to some new white chucks! love them. They go with anything, it was super easy, now the only problem is I'd rather stare at them then wear them!

Where The Wild Things Dress...

One would think that as "summer" (blazing inferno of humidity, bad hair, and excuses for people not to wear much at all) is not to many calender days off; I'd be dreaming of tank tops, flip flops, and maybe some trendy new shades. Not I. I've actually been looking at some Fall/ Winter '09 fashion, because to honest, I live in layers. I'm not satisfied if my sandals match my T-shirt, I want some gloves and a jacket and some over-the-top scarf to go with! It's non negotiable. So I'd like to show off some captivating images that would make me sweat if I wasn't already.

This is a snippet from the Givenchy menswear fall/winter '09 ready-to-wear line

I was headed over to givenchy.com to check out their spring things when the fall link caught my eye and I must say that I've spent lots of time trying to translate these looks into something affordable. You can be damn sure I'll be rocking it when SUMMER (grrrr) decides to let up.

Here are some of the ideas I'm thinking of bringing together to create these looks. The "thigh high 3-pack" in black from American Apparel (.com) paired with some less formal dress shoes and some cropped shorts (I've had my eye on some at Topman.com). Socks now only about $36.00! I think I'd experiment with cutting and stiching them so that maybe they weren't QUITE so high.

Also Likely with the same shorts these Rick Owens boots (22 inches!) available at oki-ni.com but costing much more than is in my checking account currently, so I've found others for about a quarter of the price that are just as fierce!

numero uno

I decided to start a fashion and lifestyle blog today! Here's why; It's my belief that in every aspect of being one should uphold some form of style or class (being polite, dressing fabulously, WHATEVER). This comes in SO many forms. Of course I'll be hitting on my opinion here.

The first IMAGE (!!!) I'm not even sure where I came across is but it's inspired me to make an extremely labor intensive "vest"I guess you could call it. Which I'll post a picture of when I'm satisfied with it.

That's all for now!
