Coco Chanel...

There was a movie on Lifetime - Which I didn't get to see. All about the wonderful life of Coco Chanel. What an inspiring story... from the slums , to one of the Greatest names in Fashion! I cannot wait to see it!

The following are quotes from Coco Chanel - She is brilliant...

"I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little-if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny."


"Dress shabbily and they remember your dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman."

I think my mom would like these quotes. I want to frame them and put them in my bathroom!

I Really Hope You Like Sequins...


I have not posted in a LONG time, as you see... Thought this may be a good time - since my favorite season for Fashion is here! ...Because they were all over the New York runways for Spring.

They came huge (Threeasfour, Jenni Kayne), they came small (DVF, Alexandre Herchcovitch, Phillip Lim), they even came minuscule and in body art-like swirls on sheer tops and leggings (Ohne Titel).

I fully expect to see them in every store come February, but the bigger question remains: Will we see them on every girl come April?

Only if we don't mind looking like disco balls (or Sienna Miller circa 2006)...
