Multi Colored Nails




Well I have been a little MIA throughly enjoying my winter break but I'm back! and here we go! So I've been very into nail-polish lately I've caught the manicure bug. Blacks are traditional for the runway and of course Steel from the Chanel SOHO story collection is one of my absolute favorites. What you see in the bottle isn't exactly what shows up on the your nails. In the bottle Steel looks like a deep grey laced with silver, on nails it's a more midnight matte with the slightest shimmer, blue-black, and I Adore it! But I was more in the mood for something bright so I only painted my two ring fingers Steel and the rest a metallic jewel favorite OPI: Glitzerland. I really loved how it turned out, the darker Steel really was eye catching, and the gold added the extra bit of flirty fun I was going for. How do you feel about Multi-color manicures? Chic? Yay or Nay?

Leather Nails


Via Glamour


Stumbled across this little post by Glamour.... not sure how I feel. On one hand I am totally excited for something new in the nail world, on the other, leather nails ughk? Either way I'm very curious. This intriging new texture comes by way of Jason Wu's collaboration with CND which will be available in May 2011. The collection consists of mainly classy and time-resistant colors but it's the effect polish "Anna" that's really sensational. The effect polish is going to go for around $50.

So the question is: Next big thing for nails? or just a big flop?

Back and Hungry. Jeffery Campbell Lita Shoes


I am BACK!!! Perhaps the Holiday season has inspired me, perhaps the spirit of consumerism has inspired the shopaholic in me.... that or me schedule is finally calming down a bit. After working my butt off all semester it is time for internship applications, and in the meanwhile while I sweat myself to sleep with anxiety I'll post here for some recreational oogling. What better way to start than with Jeffery Campbell's enormously successful LITA bootie.

Ok if you haven't heard of the Lita I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you must have been hitting 508 errors at every blog to mean anything ever but these puppies have been the talk of the town since summer. With the holiday season upon us the amorous fashionistas have turned into feverish obbsessives and these shoes are flying off the shelves EVERYWHERE. I hate to admit it but I want them... BAD. They come in every color; Black, Distressed Black, Brown, Distressed Brown, Grey, Red, Pink, White, Blue, Green, Mustard.... you get the picture? Jeffery is an old friend of mine, I always find myself pining for his shoes, so it's no surprise to me that these puppies are such a sensation. My suggestion find them, preorder them, and sport them.

Me personally my goal is to secure a pair before Thanksgiving break to flaunt infront of my old high school frenemies. Oh these old things?

Where can you get them?
Karmaloop $145.00
Solestruck $159.95
$159.00
Oak NYC $164.00
Singer22 $175.00

They are also available at LF Stores... but you can't order them online!

Happy Hunting.

Eat Or Be Eaten... or in this case WORN

PETA has been causing quite a bit of a fuss over Lady GaGa's "Meat Bikini" cover for Japanese Vogue. PETA claims "No matter how beautifully it is represented, flesh from a tortured animal is flesh from a tortured animal,"....puhleaseeee. Get off of your soap box, get a life, and stop ruining high fashion for the rest of us, and for everyone else who is surprised or confused with Gaga's choice of attire clearly I'm going to have to agree with The Guardian on this one. Typical Gaga I'd expect nothing less.

When 09/07/2010
Where School, and Memorial 911 Candlelight Vigil
Why
Well the title is self explanatory if you live in the NYC/Long Island area. Since the big mean and SCARY hurricane Earl slipped silently past us this past weekend without much fuss we have been having BEAUTIFUL weather, and although summer is officially over this doesn't mean sundresses are out of vogue just yet. I for one plan to cling to my warm wear for as long as possible I'm not much of a winter person. I've got so much going on this week, I recently started to write for Patch.com which has been keeping me very busy, not to mention taking three intensive journalism classes (my clip file will be quite impressive by the end of this semester), on thursday I'm going to ifb's Evolving Influence Conference (which if you are in the NYC area you should definitely check out), and friday is NYC's FNO!! So excited!!! The shirts came today!

Gossip Girl, FNO, and Glitz Oh My!

I am very excited for Fashion's Night Out this year, last year was a blast and this year my little Kira will be tagging along with me for all sorts of fun. With our T-shirts on the way, and evening plan what's left but to drool over something sparkly first appearing in Bergdorf on FNO's eve.

Sydney Evan heart necklace, $575

Sooo cute and with that price tag I'm going to have a wait a bit before it goes anywhere near my neck. Also here's a fun little clip from Vogue on the CW's Gossip Girl's FNO epsiode coming up on the 13th!
