LACE/ PATTERNED TIGHTS

Lace tights are my absolute favorite this fall. Just bought a pair today, but I really want the ones pictured to the left from American Apparel. I remember wearing lace tights when I was a kid and I loved them then, I had every kind. You can wear these to church, school, work, date, wedding, etc. I think it brings a little personally to every outfit.

Victoria's Secret 2010 Runway Fashion Show

So the Victoria's Secret fashion show aired tonight, and I was disappointed. I remember wanting every piece from last years show and the year before that, it just seemed like the focused more on the "Top Model" like contest than the runway. Well, anyways here a few pictures from the show.

P.S. - they need Tyra Banks back.

YOU'RE SUCH A DAMN ANIMAL

I love animal print, especially in the winter time (don't know why. lol) but I have a scarf, that I absolutely love and I recently purchased some Cheetah print ballet flats w/ big black bows, so can't wait to wear those. So basically I wanted to do a post on this because animal prints themselves never go out of style. So here are some tips on how to wear them. Enjoy : )



A note on how to wear animal print:
1. Work with ONE print, not 2 or 3 .... now you CAN have 2 items of the same print on, for example: a belt and pumps, or flats and a purse.

2. DON'T wear a too tight animal printed dress, that's old school and just hoochie

3. Your safe outfit: all black & one animal printed piece

4. For a party or date: Animal printed top with a brightly solid colored skirt or vice-versa

ALL BLACK EVERYTHING (part 2)

Kanye West shopping in Paris

Kanye pulls this look off so well... we are HUGE fans of black on black, and yes wearing it can be tricky, but the trick is to wear different shades of black.

First Lady Michelle Obama is wearing a gown by Naeem Khan, and a great choice I say, his designs are amazing!

The Indian- born designer is known for his gorgeous evening-wear.
