American Idol Fashion

I have never watched American Idol for fashion...but, Stephanie Williams wore a dress Monday that I wanted soo bad...they don't have the image on the Star Style site that I found that is finding looks similar to what the Idol's are wearing...but, they say it was a kimono dress...the items they found are pretty cute...check out the site...

I can't believe!

My eyes popped out of my head like a bug with BIG eyes when I read that my fashion dream, Sarah Jessica Parker was going to have a clothing line…ahhhh!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait to see this…I for one already ADORE her lovely fragrance, LOVELY...I can’t wait to indulge in her clothing line BITTEN. Which will be priced nicely and available at malls...believe it or not...I hope she doesn't let me down...I have always loved her attire on and off the screen and when her fragrance was nice I felt like she couldn't do anything wrong with her name attached...we shall see...

The Trend this Season are Dresses, at least that is what BAZAAR is saying


I don't usually watch what Mischa is wearing because her skirts/dresses are way to short for my style...but, I LOVE this dress that she wore last year

It Factor


Net-A-Porter has hit the "it" factor for the new handbag to have this Spring and it is none other than the Chloe Bay Bag. Instead of standing in line or being on a waiting list like I was for Uggs this holiday season and never getting a call...go to www.net-a-porter.com/baybag and get on the email list to let you know when it gets online...it is kind of like how ebay emails you when the item you are bidding on is coming into it's final hour, except you don't have to fight with anyone;)
Apparently Rachel Zoe has marked this as a must have for her style star Mischa Barton...so you make your choice...Chloe or what else:) If I had the cash I would be on it right now...until then...I will keep sharing what I find.

Also, Net-A-Porter has Supermodel Helena Christensen's new clothing line Christensen & Sigersen beginning this month...so she is doing more than just her boutique, Butik...I think he line is very bohemian...a great line to wear through the hot summer days.

How do you feel...is the question posed on the Just Cavalli site...if I got this dress I would feel chic, sexy, perfect in every way

And I would wear this dress off the beach…even though it is a beach cover-up with these brilliant new Aldo shoes…or the shoes could be worn with a great mini shift dress by Pucci! Scan shoe: Avariella $195
No photos for the shoes that I like...go to the site...I guess patience is a virtue we will have to work on:)

IF YOU MISSED THE SHOW LIKE I DID...

Check out the recap on Oprah.com that shows all of the amazing makeovers that project runway’s Tim Gunn did…I love Makeovers!

Old things become new again

I know I have written about Kara Janx before…but, I love when new designers come out with something new…which of course they should do anyway…but, it is still fun I was reminded of this amazing designer that is an alum of Project Runway because someone had left an image from her new line that I loved the styling of on the printer. So, now I am sharing with all of you.

Great idea from CoutureCandy on how to pre-Spring Clean

Simply turn all of your hangers around in your closet. Put the hook on the opposite side of the bar (so it's kind of awkward to take the hanger out). Then as you wear your clothes, place the hangers back as normal. A month from now, you will be able to clearly see which pieces you actually wore and which pieces just took up valuable closet space!

for more trend tips from couture candy check out the link at the left or the title of this blog.

Too Cute


I love skirts…so I naturally love the idea that I can make my own skirt as easy as 1,2, 3…

Sew What Skirts…
I have also been thinking that it would be fun to find vintage dress directions on ebay or at a thrift store…then go shop and find the best fabrics ever for a modern look

Fashion TV Scoop

I just found out today that a vendor I work with, George Simonton not only owns a New York Showroom, but is also a professor at FIT and now...he will be starring in a fashion reality program called, “I Don’t Have a Thing to Wear.” It should air in the fall on TLC. George’s title is Master Designer and he will be overseeing former graduates of FIT who are up and coming designers. In the show they go through someone’s closet and rework the pieces they currently have, such as adjusting the length, changing the buttons, taking out the shoulder pads, etc. We are all so excited here to see him on his new reality show. He has a great TV personality and if the first 6 episodes do well, then he’ll be guaranteed another season. I love the concept for this show and I can't wait to see how it goes...we have a little while to wait...but, it is worth the wait...until then see if you can go take a class at FIT that he may teach or see which George Simonton items you can buy before he gets really BIG and you can't find his items anywhere:)

Style in any City for Less

Yes, Patricia Fields, the woman who made "Sex and the City" what it was to fashionista's everywhere will be gracing us all with great, affordable shoes at PAYLESS! I still can't even believe it! I just read about it on Style Stalker's blog page on Vibe Vixen. Run, don't walk to a store near you and get some of these AMAZING shoes during the holiday season 2007!

Guess who is doing trend reports for everyone...drum roll..

Michael Finke, the fashion director at Saks Fifth Ave...I remember him sharing with us every season…that was my favorite meeting to attend when working at Saks…and now we can all have his great knowledge…Here are a couple of the key trends for Fall 2007 from New York...Check out the site for more great inspiration!
Shine continues to be one of the easiest ways to add a punch of sophistication to daytime. Beads, sequins, metallic-infused fabrics, patent leather, and – yes – PVC, all catch the light adding a touch of drama to illuminate the season’s best looks. Burberry shown...
