end of fashion week..

and this is what i found interesting.

Let's start with Anna Sui our favorite goth has done it again.
What she has done i really don't know but i am really bored with what
she does now, some dresses were pretty mixed in with a lot of
WTF... red and white can only be done by meg white and nobody else.




Carolina Herrera's collection was made beautifully for who it was intended for.
Her customers are older and more sophisticated but really out of the show
i can see some stuff i would really love to own (but then again i am a grandma)
The beutiful frilly dress with the red cardigan and the cut and the collar on the
sleeveless blouse just throws me back to the 1950's and makes me wish
i lived back then.




Diane Von Furstenburg did what she did best , but gave it a new life.
The wrap dress will never die and the print and the length on the first one
pictured seems to have made it trendy enough for next season but i am
so in love with the second look. I'm seeing a lot more body definition in
these collections high waisted belted skirts and higher bodices completely
curve balled from the tent dresses we were seeing this past year.




Betsey Johnson is always insane and thinks its prom season all year,
but that's what she does and if i was going to prom i would definetly
wear the first dress and make my date wear a baby blue tie.
She used a lot of different colored polka dots in her collection
which scares me if polka dots will be making a comeback in
the spring (crossing fingers that should be a no)




and the man who could do no wrong...

Marc by Marc Jacobs

this show made me soo happy , mostly because the marc jacobs collection (not pictured)
wasn't the best we have seen so hopefully he put in all his time in making this collection
breath taking which it was. This collection made me feel like he went down to the french riviera
and just soaked it in . My favorite color combination of all time is red and blue and i always want to just wear red and blue together and put on a beret and wish that i was in a jean luc godard movie , i feel like maybe marc was in my head or something. He put so much color in this collection besides the color combination of red and blue, he had some bright yellows, and corals.
I seriously don't know what to say besides marc is the only person who makes me excited about fashion .....

im always late..

last night i went to luis' house with kathy
we watched "how i met your mother"
i had NEVER seen this show..and now im
completely hooked. i dont understand
why i am always late on tv shows...i am not
a lost or heroes fan...i don't even know whats
really on any network anymore...i only watch
a few cable channels and there are only two
shows that i make an effort to watch "best week ever"
and "it's always sunny in philadelphia."
So we only made it through disc 1 but we have
decided instead of bff movie night it will now be
bff tv night and we will hopefully finish before
the new season starts....
somehow we ended up talking till around 3am when
we then decided it was necessary to have a photoshoot..

sometimes watching the office cures all...

Today i was my day off
and i accomplished nothing but relaxing.
I went to my favorite thrift store on alondra and clark,
it was kind of a bad day to go thrifting i only got 4 things
and in my opinion they weren't even that great...
pictures to come...

Later in the day i met up with shadi, she took me to this place by her job that was amazing...it had like this build in pond and we took our holga's and took some pictures and stuff.
The place was pretty awesome because of the repetitive patterns it had all around. I of course took some pictures of that and then decided that maybe i wanted to get in the pond....but then i remembered i was a puss and i dont have the money to pay a fine for that but i did anyways ..and felt bad that my feet probably contaminated that pond BAD..hahaha
We were suppose to go see 2 days in paris but opted to just go get in n out and watch the office season 3 at her house. Before we got in n out we stopped at barnes n nobles and just looked around .
Now i know this all sounds nerdy to everyone but i fucking love barnes and nobles there is something about books that just makes me happy (i think its the smell) i read a bit which might be a suprise to some but the older i get the more reserved and shy i have become maybe im regressing as time passes by but i have to say i really do i enjoy my alone time with a good book. So we browsed around barnes and nobles i ended up reading teen vogue while shadi bought a book and then we headed back to her house while ryan adams' halloween head played basically on repeat the whole time (gosh do we love him)
so watching the office was fun i realized that i had seen more of season 3 than i thought and that for some reason i really liked karen with jim (dont hate) but halfway through this realization shadi was already asleep maybe it was hitting 10 o' clock ...yeah no matter what we do ..after nine she is always yawning so trust me i didnt expect her to stay up past disc 1...
so here are some pictures to take you through my journey

fashion week...

i was just catching up on new york fashion week last night and was thouroughly dissapointed
mostly because the lack of color in the collections that have shown.
It's spring and maybe to me spring means color...but all the collections i have seen have been bombarded with black,white and grey, and when there is color its always muted.
it seems no one has any fun in fashion anymore..
i just want to see something new and suprising !
but maybe fashion is kind of on the backburner right now
that's why places like american apparel are making the big cash.
everyone wants to go back to being simple..no fuss...
who knows..

the one big collection that has shown has been L.A.M.B.
i read somewhere that Gwen's inspiration was going back to
her ska roots...and i could see that a bit..but it mostly looked
like mod/punk and then it kind of went somewhere else with the print...
























there was also some green striped printed shirts and dresses
that she showed but those just seemed more out of place than the print
did. At least she used color though!!!!











One collection that i really liked though was Lela Rose, she had some cute
cuts for dresses and orange was a prominent color in her collection .



hopefully we will see more color in the collections that are left to show this week

stuff stuff stuff...


me and shadi are at best buy at there little apple shop ..
just enjoying the macs we cannot own and basically drooling
over the new ipods...
im investing in a new ipod classic as soon as i can
160 gb(like a band right sha?)
.... i need that! i will probably never fill it but i will sure try..
.............

besides the huge news of vanessa hudgens naked pics
nothing seems to be exciting in entertainment..
but really how classic is it for a disney channel star
to be outed as a sex kitten just as she is barely 18
i feel bad for her i really do ..
thank god im not famous..i wouldnt be able to deal with
that shit....

anyways photobooth options rule
