Summer to Fall Transition (DIY Gold Pyramid Studded Collar White Dress)

You maybe asking yourself, "How can I transition that white Summer dress that I love oh-so-much into my Fall wardrobe?" Well, I'm gonna tell you. It's pretty simple. 


SUMMATIMEZ

 DIY gold pyramid studded collar thrifted dress. Featured with BCBG Generation studded metallic Gladiators, Forever 21 Mint Cat-eye Sunglasses, and a thrifted leopard print belt.  In a past life, this dress was a short sleeved chambray denim frock. But with a ton of bleach, scissors, and some gold pyramid studs this dress was transformed VOILA.





READY FOR FALL Y'ALL



 Just put a jacket over it and put some ankle boots on. As Dr. Steve Brule once said "Why didn't you thinka thatttt?"

Featured with thrifted olive green utility jacket, and Steve Madden black leather ankle boots.

Julian Casablancas Portrait (a boombox is not a toy)

Here is the Julian Casablancas painting I've been working on. I finally finished and sold it today. It was hard to let it go. This is the first portrait I've made. I worked really hard on it. I have another one that I made for myself that is unfinished. I better get started on it. I just love this picture of him so much. Julian is such an inspiration to me, and I'm so pleased to have sold this special portrait to someone else who shares the same love for him that I do. Oh Hulian... Te Amo... lol

High quality prints are available to order. If any die hard Julian Casablancas fans, like myself, are interested.  It's acrylic on canvas 18 x 24 inches. Other sizes are available. Contact me via twitter




You can't tell I like The Strokes at all, can you?

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! ..?
