Chanel Bag: Try this at home

Now we can all own a Chanel bag! I came across this genius creation while twittering. I'm encouraging everyone to try this at home.To create this jumbo sized Chanel bag all you need is a large brown paper bag, a black sharpie and a long gold or silver chain depending on your preference. Although, I've been told that gold hardware is more regal looking. I think I'm going to paint my bag cobalt blue.  Now with all the money you've saved you can invest in more important things.

Christian Louboutin: Worth missing Rent

Mr. Red Sole does it again! Blending traditional menswear and punk street-wear Christian Louboutin created  Bobo, the new it shoe. This shoe is perfect for the working lady who wants to spice up her work attire. These booties will look amazing paired with gray suiting to further play up the menswear theme that is being referenced. At $1395 (excluding the tax) this is probably half if not more than most peoples' rent. Is it worth Going Broke for? Of course! Just be sure that when you wear these booties to pack a pair of sneakers in case you have to run from your unpaid land lord. If anything the spacious shoe box can also serve as temporary shelter.

2010 Tuxedo

While everyone else will be tapping into their inner Katy Perry with loads of  sequence and glitter, stand apart from the majority and  bring in  2010 in a snazzy tuxedo inspired look. Don't fret all of my girly girls! A tuxedo ensemble will not make you look... dare I say butch.  If styled correctly the outfit can actually be extremely sexy.

I put my own style twist on the traditional tuxedo concept by pairing a pair of satin harem pants with a satin shawl collared blazer and to make the outfit fun and playful I incorporated a casual heather gray tee and a textured knit hat. 

To achieve this look pair black satin skinny or wide leg pants with a tuxedoish blazer or vest.

Suggestions for sexing this look up would be to add a sheer lace top or if your that kind of girl... ditch the blouse and just place double sided taped on the inside of the blazer lapel to keep 'em in place.

 Don't forget to finish the look with monster heels.

Is Ugly the new Beautiful?

Feminism has taken the form of a 5’ 1’’ platinum blonde that openly kisses both boys and girls and has a tea cup for a side kick. Lady Gaga along with many other female pop stars are pushing the envelope and are flicking the finger at traditional female archetypes. These femme fetals are using the media as well as their music as platforms to showcase their liberation proving that they can be just as bold and raunchy as one of the boys. This “bad girl” phenomenon is redefining the perception of womanly beauty and sparking Avant Garde fashion trends.

A prize worth buying

Patek Philippe watches, Private Planes and Platinum Blondes; boys will have their toys. A man’s success is not only dictated by the knowledge he possesses, position held within his company or the costly objects he is able to acquire but is sometimes exemplified through the woman in which he is associated with. This is a particular kind of man that believes that having a wife that resembles a doll is an investment worth making and because of this he is willing to use his Black Amex card to finance any shopping spree, Botox injection, or boob job needed to maintain his wife’s status as a Trophy Wife. As these men get older and more successful their wives become trimmer and tanner. This wasteful living is portrayed in December 2009 Harper’s Bazaar editorial “Trophy Wife”. The shriveled sponsor a.k.a “the husband” is played by actor George Hamilton and his “Plastic Barbie” played by model Amber Heard.

Chic Holidays

Tis the season to wear embellishments. Sequins, lace, and intricate bead work are all the rage this Holiday season! Feel free to pair feminine dresses with masculine blazers. To contrast this lace beaded dress I paired it with a slouchy velvet smoking jacket. You can easily make take this look into day by layering a comfy cashmere and pairing with sleek riding boots.
