Resort 2013 Review

Well, since I've quarantined myself because I'm deathly ill, I've decided to make use of my down time and "curate" (fashion blogger's favorite word) the Resort 2013 collections. Here are some of my favorites. 

Roberto Cavalli, because HELLOOOO GOIRJESS.

3.1 Phillip Lim. I'm getting verklempt. Tawlk amongst yaselves. I'll give you a topic. The leather overalls. Welder Chic? Discuss

 Band of Outsiders, because they rule. I picture myself prancing around in these preppy pretties on a boat of course.

 Givenchy, because LOOK AT THESE GEMS. 

 Chloe, because it actually looks like clothes suited for a resort/holiday.

 Dior, because I want to look completely fabulous on my imaginary vacation. 

 Cynthia Rowley, because I believe Abbey Elliot as Zooey Deschanel said it best "The best kinda girl is a quirky girl."

Rag & Bone, because damn I want to own every one of these pieces.

Marc by Marc Jacobs, because DUH.

ORANGE YOU GLAD IT'S SUMMER?!

"Whoever said orange is the new pink, is seriously disturbed." Well, Elle Woods, I really like the color orange okay? Okay. I don't know what it is but, orange is my new best friend lately. It's such a happy little color, just like the happy little sun that is living in the in the top left corner of my collage. I would like to think that Bob Ross would approve. 


How do you feel about orange in fashion? A little goes a long way? Or wear ALL THE ORANGE! ..?

Mother's Day

You know what guys? My mom is cool. Even if she wasn't I'd love her anyway. I believe everyone should think of their mothers more than just one day a year, but since this is a day specifically dedicated to Mothers, I think it's appropriate to dedicate a blog post to my mom's awesomeness. She's the primary reason for my love and knowledge of the fashion industry and she inspires me more than any fashion icon or rock star. I prefer to do most things with her, especially shopping. I find it quite difficult to make a purchase without her final decision. Sometimes, I think we both secretly like to pretend we're sisters because neither of us has one. Most importantly, she has been and always will be there for me when I need her.
