(Senso ad)

Senso, an australian footwear brand, has brought its collection stateside and is now available for us New Yorker's! The unique amount of booties and shoes they have is amazing and all their shoes are trendy and can be warn with anything. These booties and shoes are less than $200 a pair which saves us all a lot of money during this recession!

Herff Christiansen

I just love this dress.


The two masterminds behind this incredible collection is Mary Herff and Randi Christiansen. These two designers have created avant garde garments using only T-shirt fabric! They've made wraps, tanks, shirts, and dresses and all their garments are eye catching. These garments can increase and decrease the body size depending on how you place them and with what accessories you pair them with.

Alejandro 'SkyHigh' Inglemo



Shoemaker Alejandro Ingelmo makes sky high heels that are for the daring. So if your the type of girl that loves to catch people's eyes then these are the heels for you. As of late his shoes could be found only at Bergdorf and Goodman, but now he is opening his own stand- alone shop in SoHo, New York and word is he may also design an exclusive women's sneaker collection so be ready my fellow fashionistas!



British



It seems to me London is beginning to lead the way in fashion again! During the 1900s they were amazingly ahead of everyone else and now their climbing there way back to the top. One designer I have notice is British Fashion designer Lulu Guiness who has designed the ultimate accessory.... a lip shaped clutch! The clutch is edgy yet chic and sexy and it is very "eye- catchy". This accessory should be on everyones list!
P.S. Another cute item to add to your list is a pair of Doc Martens by Lulu Guiness, they are just adorable!



Pharrell and Women's Wear?


Pharell Williams, the designer for the Billionaire Boys Club, is looking into designing women's clothing? No.... people he is not. The facts of the matter is that he ordered a capelet a couple sizes too small for his male models, but it fit on a female model a lot better therefore he just made it a single woman peice, but as of right now Pharell isn't looking to design any women apparel just yet.



Swarovski


Rebecca Taylor's limited edition crystal embellished tights are beautiful and can go with absolutely anything you wear. The crystals used to embellish these tights are provided by Swarovski and they glisten beautifully in the light whether it be night lights as you walk into a club or during the day in the sunlight. I think I should order a pair right now!






Be Aware!

There are many new and upcoming designers out there, but five specific ones caught my attention. In their collaborations with J. Brand jeans, which might I add are beautiful and unique, they each caught my attention in different ways! Basically each jean designed by one of these designers is a must have!
5 Rising British Designers:
1) Christopher Kane
2) Meadham Kirchoff
3) Richard Nicoll
4) Erdem
5) Peter Pilotto

If your a designer who believes you have what it takes to be the next big thing The Centre for Fashion Enterprise is the way to go. The Centre for Fashion Enterprise is a organization based in London that provides business guidance and mentoring for emerging fashion talent. Good luck to all you hard working designers who are trying to make it big! I am also a designer and I am trying every way possible to place myself in everything having to do with fashion and I know how hard it can be so I wish all you other designers the best of luck and I hope some of my posts help.

Fall Footwear!

Dakota Fanning







Jessica Szohr


























I just love this woman's over all appearance and she is just beautiful...yes, I am talking about Jessica Szohr whom I had the pleasure of meeting on September 10, 2010 at Fashions Night Out in Prada. Jessica is the sweetest person in the world and she has such elegant, but bad girl type style, it's the sweet vs. rough look that always is eye catching.
