Take a look, my fierce fashion followers!  I received my first blogger award!  When I first started this blog, there were so many times when I thought, “is anyone reading this?  Does anyone know my blog exists?”  Then, little by little, I started accumulating followers, and low and behold…..I got official recognition from Fash-uh-nee-stah!  Thank you so much, Roxy Heart.  It means the world to know that my blood, sweat, and tears *exaggeration* are noticed!  I also want to give a big SHOUT OUT to all my fierce fashion followers.  Your thoughtful comments brighten up my day.  I get such pleasure from getting a small glimpse into your worlds and feel so touched when you take the time to leave a little love in mine.

Wardrobe Inspiration

 

Hello to all my fierce fashion followers!  Some of you may recognize this picture from a recent “streetstyle” post.  What really struck me about this picture is this woman’s ability to look so “effortlessly beautiful.”  She’s not donning a ball gown or couture.  Nor is she wearing meticulously applied makeup.  For one, she’s in SNEAKERS, and her hair is in a simple ponytail with shades, yet she still manages to look STUNNING.  Maybe it is her bone structure which just so happens to resemble a Greek Goddess.  All I know is that she is proof that you do not have to adorn yourself with the “latest and greatest” to stand out.  I used this picture as my inspiration for Saturday’s look. I fashioned my hair in a purposely messy “doorknob” bun and kept my makeup light for a casual, laidback look.  I added some edge by wearing a leather jacket, side-buckle ankle boots, and hipster belt.  Now, for the piece de resistance….STUNNA SHADES!  These 80’s shades make anyone look cool, and is the “cherry” on top of any outfit!  I am really glad these are back in style and I hope they stick around for awhile.  I hope I was able to re-create some of the energy of this picture.

Versace 2011 Spring Collection

 

Abbey Lee

 

Fashion icon and supermodel extraordinaire Abbey Lee Kershaw modeled a stunning array of gowns for Versace’s 2011 Spring collection.  Adorned in 13 intricate creations ranging from crystals to chiffon, Abbey’s fair-skinned features added a statuesque quality that mixed beautifully against the rich boldness of the gowns.  This year’s Spring collection is truly a work of art.  Here are a few of my favorites.  Enjoy the eye candy, my fierce fashion followers…

Casual Friday!

 

Happy Friday to all my fierce fashion followers!  Today, I decided to take a break from living life in the Fab Lane, and embrace the laziness of the weekend.  What better way to start the weekend right than with my favorite casual outfit?  My idea of comfort is: A Hollister hoodie, American Eagle jeans, and my Uggs.  Have a fabulous weekend, my lovelies…

Paris Fall Fashion Week 2011

 

Fashionably Fierce

 

Hello, my fierce fashion followers! Check out what fashion’s finest are wearing to Paris Fashion Week…

 

Give any conservative piece an edge with pleather and lace stockings. Loves it!

I love EVERYTHING, but my faves are those fabulous opera gloves and her gloriously blue trench. Fabulous!

 

Dressed to impress in a spectacular fur and killer heels.  I wish I could see the detail on her top.

Leather pants is the solution to any outfit dilemma. This black blazer and heels make this a trendy chic ensemble.

 

This girl is definitely “in the know.”  Wide-brim hats and palazzo pants are going to be HUGE this Spring.

Femininity with edge: Her flowy  skirt contrasts beautifully with her leather jacket.

Fashionably Fabulous in leather gloves, Balenciaga, and a Celine clutch! Sheer perfection.

Visual confirmation that, when paired with the right pieces, tennis shoes can be trendy and fab.

My Boyfriend’s Closet

 

Hello, my fierce fashion followers!  Today’s look was inspired by all the fierce single gals who find themselves in a jam the next morning when an impromptu all-night rendezvous turns into, “EEK! What the eff am I going to wear?!”  So, I dipped into my husband’s closet.  Yes, technically this should have been entitled “My Husband’s Closet,” but it didn’t have the right ring to it.  First of all, keep at least one pair of leggings at your boyfriend’s place.  They are a staple and should be readily available ANYWHERE.  Then, put on one of his collared shirts.  Secure it with a belt, and VOILA!  Instant edgy outfit.  And if your man’s a metrosexual—BONUS!  Throw on a hat.  Since my husband is my exact opposite, the only hats in his closet are trucker hats with slogans like, “Bringin out the big guns: NRA,” and “Save a horse, ride a tractor,”  I had to purchase mine from the men’s department.  Oh well, gotta make it work, right? Have fabulous night!
