My DENIM LAUNCH for 2b by bebe!!

I’m obsessed with this dress!

 Nina Dobrev took on the black-and-white trend in a Naeem Khan gown that featured the two-toned bold print and a sexy open-back detail.  A little obsessed with both this dress and her. WANT> in my closet. today.

OSCARS BEST DRESSED!

 This time around everyone really brought their A game!  Good job, good job.  I mean to be honest I never really understand when they don’t get it right… they have people dressing them… hello!?  My favorite though was definitely Jennifer Lawrence’s Dior Couture dress and backwards diamond necklace. Even if the dress caused her to fall… still worth it. xo

 

Christopher Kane I <3 you.

 

At first when I was scrolling through the 60+ looks of the Christopher Kane show I thought to myself  “whoa whoa whoa, who’s trying to be Michael Kors with all of the camo print. And whoa whoa whoa, that’s a lot of freaking camo print”.  I mean I know Marc Jacobs did it last season with stripes but not everyone can barf up stripes and get away with it right?  Then I scrolled down some more and the show slowly and progressively got better, and better and better.  Now I’m obsessed.  Seriously.  Did you see the sweatshirt with fake flowers all over it!?!  It’s crazy but you kind of want one right??  RIGHT!?  The Christopher Kane show was progressive, new, innovative and fresh.  I mean come on he found a way to make velvet look interesting. Good job CK.

For the rest of the show go here:

Marc Jacobs Fall 2013 Ready-to-Wear.

Every girl needs a fur dress!  Seriously? The Fall 2013 Marc Jacobs Show has everything a gal wants, fur, sparkles, ready to wear liquid pajamas… WHAT?!  Amazing. Ok I’m exaggerating… a lot. But I genuinely was impressed by not only the simplicity of the MJ show but the thought behind it, the aftermath of it (I was dreaming of fur) and fabrics used in it.  The only thing that confused me was the pretty-much-naked topless model walking down the runway mid show.  I think it was supposed to add to the story of the show but it just looked like the model forgot her top. So confusing.

All in all though… hand clap MJ.

GRAMMY’S BEST DRESSED.

Jlo, best dressed. Love the high slit.

Rihanna, amazing. Thank god her hair is long again.

Katy Perry. I’m on the fence about this one…too much boob.

Fall 2013 Diesel Black Gold.

With the exception of a pair of really cool studded jeans (shown above- I’m a denim designer so maybe I’m bias) the Diesel NY show this season was wamp-wamp. If I was sitting front row this would be my commentary “oh look a pair of leather pants”, “oh look more black pants”, “oh look something white!”  The show lacked imagination and the extremity that I think we’ve all come to except from Diesel. Do over?

Kanye does Run-waye.

Kanye West debuts his runway collection in Paris… and well… I am pleasantly surprised.  It’s not that I didn’t think Kanye could actually conceptualize a good collection, but more so that it wouldn’t be cohesive.  The collective in total in very cohesive, has good texture, fits into trend and has some unexpected elements such as whip like belts and matching belted up boots.  I do however feel as if I have seen this collection before, the sort of ode to a female modern day warrior… while it is imaginative and strong I would say that it is not original, and a lot of the pieces look like they could fit right into Kim Kardashian’s closet or perhaps on sale at Barney’s. (seeing as most people don’t have the desire or funds to spend 3k on a fur top nowa days lol) In total I’d say… I’m interested to see what he dreams up for NEXT season.

To see more looks…
