What Are People Thinking?

Back in . . . Blue

2007-06-13T18:07:00.000-07:00

Although Back in Black is a staple CD in you Terry Woods CD rack, but I am back, not in black but in Blue.

Blue.

Electric Blue, Navy Blue, Light Blue, Airy Blue fuck. I feel like I should be tripping over my lip in Forrest Gump.

Blue looks wonderful on the fair skinned to the golden tanned.

Emanuel Ungaro Spring 2007

Going out and looking for a va-va-voom dress. Something Scarlett Johansonn (sp) would kill with a tube of red lipstick.

Chloe Spring 2007. Need I say more. This dress is immaculate. again. if you can pull it off

Steven Burrows Sprint 2007. This blue is just eye piercing.

Blondes pull off this color beautifully as do women with deep dark hair.

again, either go very easy on the shoes or shock them all if you can think you can pull it off.

S/S 2007 Lanvin. This blue is so versatile and even utilitarian. Wear this with Chloe's old wooden wedges or this season's flats. If you want go crazy with bright yellow platforms.

And top it all off with these sunglasses with a white dress.

Happy blue hunting girls.

Rings

2006-08-15T12:12:00.000-07:00

I have an obsession with collecting rings. big vintage rings to those stacked rings.
Here are some of my favorites.

Dior Joaillerie. it reminds me of a princess-esque hope diamond.

Louis Vuitton. Minimalistic chic. wear it with those black capes.

gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.

Acrylic rings. I found these at the MoMA store and they are so adorable and fun.

A black spot ring is SO chic. i love love love it.
Urban Outfitters

Pomellato is one of my favorite jewlery collections, their pieces are so simple and they remind me of candy drops. I can wear one or wear two. they're so cute.

One of the girls i met in France wore one of these rings and i was suprised at how amazing it looked on her. it's effortlessly chic

:-)

Then of course. THE ring.

When are skinny jeans going to be out?

2006-08-14T19:16:00.000-07:00

After 2 years but what it seems like decades of Skinny Jeans, people still are getting it wrong.
Yes. there are PLENTY of wrong ways to wear skinny jeans.
hate to be a wet blanket, but try not to wear them if you have saddle bags/big calves/short stubby legs etc. Hate to break it to you, but it looks bad. Skinny Jeans however, are flattering to all you Mischa Barton and Sienna Miller Types- with long legs or just skinny legs. there are some of my favorite skinny jeans.

Chanel Couture Fall 2006.
skinny jeans/leggings. worn with booties.
haven't we seen this last year? but chic none the less.

Miss Sixty Big TY jeans. i know they were like 2 years ago but these jeans are SO flattering, i don't know where even begin. They aren't exactly skinny skinny, but the fit is just perfect. these are by far one of my favorites.
You can wear flats with these, but if you want to look taller/skinnier what have you, wear heels. you can wear super high heels with these because the cut of the bottom can hide any heel.

WARNING: only if you are model thin. ( lets face it. clothes look better on the slim figured) these have an animated piping to them thats great if you pair them with those stacked Louboutins or epic sized Chloe sandals. And a little scrunch on the bottom so you dont look like a pair of scissors.

Now for fall/winter, sky high boots are perfect, and you can tuck those skinny jeans into these stacked Chloe boots perfectly!

This gorgeous See by Chloe blouse can be paired with any skinny jeans and platforms. The look is immaculate! well. . .
almost.

So until the skinny jeans pass away, we must make lemonade girls!

2006-08-14T19:14:00.000-07:00

Im back. after a summer in Provence, Cote d'Azur, and St. Tropez, i've decided to rethink this blog and take it up again.

I LOVE NY fashion week.

updates/pictures soon.

Mens collections have been fabulous. everything is so . . . Mr. Darcy & Vampire Lestat

and for Fall RTW '06
Black is the new. . .black?

I've arrived at Bryant Park and I spy a certain marketing director of a certain magazine having a fashion faux pas.

Ciao

2006-01-14T15:37:00.000-08:00

Sometimes I wish I had a camera to take pictures of the parties that I attend, but It would not be very lady like to whip out my Cannon powershot in the middle of the affair. Besides. it doesn't fit in my Judith Leiber Minauderie. . .

Are overalls in again? I must admit I am guilty for sporting them on lazy days or around my apartment when I think no one is looking. But it seems that these trendy models have donned the watermelon spittin' corn on the cobb attitude and now wear overalls!

The lovely Ms. Fontana is wearing Dsquared overalls backstage at Celine. These overalls have that equestrian feel to them with the color, fabric, length (well they're rolled up i suppose) and the leather detailing. I personally think they're fabulous!

Ms Trentini is wearing Diesel overalls with converses and a simple black tee. Pair this with the latest It-bag, and you're ready to go.

The nouveau nerd? indeed they are cute and adorable. Ms. Click certainly knows how to spruce up the old. teeshirt + jeans.

Well, pull out your clothes from high school! because indeed there are ways to make them chic again.

P.S. These two girls are my favorite pair (next to MK and Ash that is). I prefer them to Mischa and Rachel, Nicole and Lindsay, and definitely Paris and Kimberly.

Sperry Topsider

2006-01-13T16:24:00.000-08:00

Sperry-Topsider is a predominantly performace shoe company for sailors, kyakers, windsurfers, powerboaters and fishermen. However, these shoes are just too irresistable to pass up.
Cute colors, cute prints, nautical yet girly and Oh So Spring
I can totally wear this with one of my white billowy dresses
or crisp city shorts!

I just love this time of year when all the spring collections are hitting the stores and you can go and run your fingers through the light fabrics. Just love it.

(both Marc by Marc Jacobs S'06)

Oooh Donna Karan. You are finally getting on my good side. after all these years.

Can anyone tell me just when those obnoxious big beaded necklaces will dissapear?? Jessica simpson should be tried for crimes against humanity. My eyes can't take it anymore!
If I see one more teenage girl with bangs and one of those heart shaped beaded long necklaces with big sunglasses and a gold hobo bag. I might lose my lunch from Pastis.

Perfume and Lempore

2006-01-08T08:39:00.000-08:00

I want this.

This is just PERFECT for S'06

Love this nautical but still very very fitted look.

So youthful.

This is adorable

Nanette Lepore. I really like these pieces. My friend from Saks Fifth Ave in NYC has been obsessed with Nanette for ever.

The much awaited follow up of Monyette Paris, I finally had the time to snag it this weekend. The smell is much more sweet. Coquette is Monyette's interpretation of a woman's smile or wink from a distance, sexy, alluring, and charming. fresh yet classic. Scents of Hibiscus, polynesian florals, Gardenia, Plumeria, and delicate French Anjou Pears.

I also highly recommend Pink Manhattan, it has more of a peachy smell.

L'Occitane has a very very nice fragrance selection, I only wish they would have perfume oils too. The vanilla is absolutely fabulous, sweet but fresh as well, with a little bit of citrus. The Vert is one of my favorites, it reminds me of Bvlgari.

I'm probably flying to LA in 2 weeks to see their shows over there, I'm very interested to see the local designers. LA style has nothing on NYC of course, but it's always interesting to see whats going on on the east side.

My Faves

2005-12-26T10:00:00.000-08:00

I'm almost sick of rosettes. Bottega's black leather accesories weren't that great in my opinion, They looked. . . boring or pay less-esque. in my opinon.

Oomph

Patricia Field would have snagged this for carrie in a heartbeat. I love love love this dress. Jill Stuart.

The bow was everywhere! I especially loved YSL's show where the model's hair were bows, the bags and shoes were darling bows. Look at that tassel on the shoe, this is why we love C.L.

Who's afraid to wear ALL black? Lanvin does a perfectly tasteful job on it and Gemma looks stunning. I would wear this with a big colorful sash instead of a black one. Love it.

Luella hit the groud running this year, first with her clever play with the fruit motif from a while ago, and incorporated it into her green apple skirts. so cute. She's always had a equestrian flow to her collections, and I love it. Her mini saddle bag is adorable, and the shirt was a staple this past year and the purple skirt is so chic. Everything looks like it flows.

Marc Jacobs even said that Mary Kate Olsen was quite a muse for his collections, and as we can see from this ensemble, indeed she was. The knee highs are a good take for the leggins, and the funky ankle boots scream for attention, but the low key waist pack and sweater downplay the crazy pieces of this outfit.

Celine. The balloon pouf shape has made one of the strongest come backs I've seen, and it is definitely on the fashion forecast for 2006 no doubt about it. This outfit is so darling, the Jacket and the Skirt are two colors one would NEVER thing would go together, but it's so harmonious in this outfit. and the ankle strap shoes. aw.

I have seen this sweater more times than I can count this year. I've seen it as a dress with fantastic ankle boots, I've seen it layered under jackets and blazers and other sweaters. Very. . . Shawshank Redemption en Vogue.

Vera Wang. This is perfect for any holiday party, either at the Met or a benefit. I do wish the sash would be emerald green.

I recieved the best presents from the best friends! i'll be sure to post them next time.

Ciao

2005-12-20T12:21:00.000-08:00

What shall you give your family and friends this year? Here are some of the most decadent and luxurious gifts I like.

First off, lets start with stocking sutffers:

Swarovski Pave crystal ballpoint pen. How can you pass it up

Sterling Silver Businesscard holder. Very posh

Cole Haan ipod case.
it doesn't get cuter than this

This is perfect for anyone, relative, friend, child. a 3 pack pique lacoste shirt in a signature gift box.

Who says money isn't an appropriate gift. This gift card is VERY appropriate. I wouldn't be one to complain.

For your little sister:

a Judith Leiber Hello Kitty Minauderie.
Paris Hilton has one. * rolls eyes

For your mother:

Luxurious perfume. either this or Givenchy's Amirage 2005 vintage batch. this batch is suppose to be the best yet. Those Italian winds make the flowers the most fragrant.

For your Father :

Voted one of the most expensive wines in the world. Any Rothschild is fantastic but a bottle of Chateau Mouton-Rothschild. is exquisite.

For your brother:
A Four Seasons Golf package. Send that brother off on vacation to Provence, Costa Rica, or even Aviara. Your bro deserves it!

Your Secretary:
The most luxurious phone. the face of the Vertu is diamond sapphire. 24/7 concierge service. rubies support the keyes. the body is a special liquid alloy that is stronger than titanium. very chic and it puts the razor to shame.

Your Boss:

MarieBelle chocolates are just too cute to eat. Any chocolates will be good for any co-worker. Add a Bond candle too if you want that extra bonus. ha.

Your Best Friend

Marc Jacobs Stell bag. You can also choose the Chanel bag or any bag for that matter. But I just love this white quilted bag.

Boyfriend:

The BMW MP3 watch. He'll absolutely love it. He can listen to his favorite music while working out or on the go.

Happy Holidays! and Happy Shopping!

2005-11-29T19:59:00.000-08:00

One great thing about this time of year is all the parties!

The Lilly Pulitzer party last week was adorable. Yes there were alot of teenagers there but they are a big part of their target group. The gift bag that I recieved was so cute! I've never had a Palm Tree cookie before, and pink and green too.

The best party so far would have to be the Calvin Klein Euphoria bash. veryyyyyy posh.

One brand that I love is Morphine Generation. They've been around for a while, and I was thrilled when my favorite by-appointment-only boutique started to carry more and more.

Cute and comfortable shirt. Tres Edgy

Amazing jacket. the design on the back and the breast pocket attracts so much attention

I love how they have designs on the outside of the collar. When you turn up your collar. it's right there. fabulous!

And a good men's line too. . .

Virtually the same thing as the women's line. but never the less flattering and oh so edgy
I heard their launch party was fantastic. Very . . . underground. I wasn't there but a friend was and she said it was almost 80s ha!

This brand almost reminds me of Yellowfever. Very Lou Doillon.

FINALLY got my Marc Jacobs crochet necklace yesterday after being onthe waitlist for eternity. They're gold and they look like they would be made of metal, but it's crochet!

Ciao

2005-11-26T11:19:00.000-08:00

Water water everywhere and not a drop to drink
- carrie bradshaw. shoeshopping.

These Delman rope T-straps are so cute. Very dirty dancing in Casablanca. Do not wear unless you have dainty ankles. the worst thing about T-straps is that they can make your ankles look wonderfully delicate, or horrifically elephant-like. Readers beware.

These earthy Valentinos are so adorable. The flower in the middle would match perfectly with any of this seasons's dresses. Instead of being just trendy with the metallic shoe, Valentino added the fall staple color- brown and the texture is just fabulous!

Yves Saint Laurent. Need I say more?

Christian Louboutins. Very very tricky to pull these shoes off. They have leather tassels, animal print, and a killer high heel.
But it is possible. Maybe a white pants or suit with a leather statement bag and these kicks. The heel is oh so sexy

Judith Leiber. Her accesories ( I hesitate to call them bags) are always an eye catcher. I love this clutch. I think of Tokyo and Harajuka ( yes. it's harajuka to be PC). To all my friends out there. this will absolutely be on my wishlist.

Until next time

Dresses for moi

2005-11-19T11:10:00.000-08:00

I have found some fabulous dresses that I like. I don't want to be too cliche with this season's trends and styles, but I want to look fabulous. So I've posted some of my favorites here.

I am currently apartment hunting preferably in the Villiage or Midtown East or Upper East Side.

Adorable Prada Ombre dress. I love the color and the sheen of this fabric. I would not wear the undershirt. Pair it with a pair of Louboutins and a Bottega clutch, i'm good to go.

This is the fall-2006-ified version of the LBD. It looks like a blouse that I have from Viktor and Rolf. I like the idea of colored tights with this dress, and a Judith Leiber Clutch.

I absolutely ADORE this dress. However, I would change the colors to a deep deep purple and a rich fushia. Roland Mouret always has nice red carpet-esque dresses. This dress and a diamond necklace or a black jet beaded necklace would be TO DIE.

I just really liked this dress.I would wear it with suede or satin purple or brown ankle boots and a hat probably. So cute!

Louboutins. I just love that Red bottom

I'm in a cab right now and I think we are almost there, so I shall blog later

Ciao

Young and Fabulous

2005-11-10T02:53:00.000-08:00

I was picking up my friend who works on wall street and as I was walking, I saw these side walk vendors and their bling and ghetto gold. I stopped and spent a good 20 minutes picking jewelry out. I think it's so much fun to wear this type of jewelry. I mean, when your young, you should go with it and wear whatever you want. When you get old, you don't have as many options and you can't get away with things. Victoria Beckham doing the RocaWear ad, a few years ago. I adored it and I actually bought a RocaWear suit myself.

Also, I stopped by one of my favorite hush hush perfume boutiques, and I stocked up on my collection of cult fragrances. These are some of my favorite.( these are mostly perfume oils because thats all I wear- the fragrance is stronger and lasts longer)

Kai- very relaxing, has gotten very big over the last year. Tropical feeling and a mix of exotic flowers and gardenia. very simple and clean

Monyette Paris is my personal favorite. Besides the darling packaging, the scent is timeless and sexy. Some say its even an aphrodisiac. The scent is rich, vanilla-based, and VERY yummy.

Quelques Violettes- a very rare perfume that is an intoxicating blend of . . . violets! It's soft powdery scent is irresistable. The violets come from Parma, Italy where something about the wind gives the violets there a special smell.

Another great perfume, Luctor et Emergo. Blend of white flowers, vanilla, almond, cherry and precious woods give this perfume a great feeling. It was voted by STYLE.com as the top cult perfume.

This one is up there on my list. I have everything from Clean Perfume from the Men's line to the linen spray. My life would be incomplete without Clean. This fragrance is for people who don't really like wearing perfume. It smells extremely refreshing, and . .Clean! It feels like you just stepped out of the greatest shower of your life.

Other good brands are Bond, Kiehls, Apotha, Chloe ( vintages), Shalimar( shalimar light), and very very old Givenchy and Dior fragrances. One of my friends collects tiny sample bottles from the 50s and 60s, they aren't really sample bottles, because their design is gorgeous!

I have to go pick up dry cleaning before they close!
Benefit event in a week, and I still have to go dress shopping!

Ciao

Boots and Boots and More Boots

2005-11-08T12:55:00.000-08:00

" walking in a single girl's life may be hard, thats why sometimes need those shoes. . . to make the walk a bit more interesting" satc

( okay, it's not verbatim, but you get the idea)

My hogan riding boots just came in and I am in LOVE with them, I am currently wearing them with my Chloe jeans tucked in with a white chiffon blouse and a head band.

I also really like the Matisse boot which is essentially the much-less expensive versio, but the leather is fabulous, and there's suede too! it's all made in brazil and I adore it.
There is also the old Hermes boot

I love it how the media butchered a fashion staple ( the cowboy boot) and now it's so god damned trendy and almost fad-ish.

So I have to go my 2 favorite Bs ( bloomingdales and bergdorfs)

Oh I have to wrap this up, Parker is here.
I'll finish this next time

Ciao!

Americans are SO 10 years ago. ( this is one of my nice blogs)

2005-11-06T00:10:00.000-08:00

At first it was Christy, Naomi, Linda, Cindy, and Janice- the power houses of the late 80s and 90s. Little girls who look like these women were getting jobs and shows left and right. These days, they're lucky if they're hired at Taste-D-lite.

Americans are SO out.

Brazilians are now out. Giselle and Adriana may still be seen around, but everyone knows that the Russkies and S.E. European girls have dominated the scene. What's so attractive about these girls? well they have that " i'm emancipated because of stalin" look, with straight straight hair. Their complexions look like porcelain. Bedroom eyes and pillowy lips are pluses too. Ova, Uva, whateva, these girls are totally working it backstage at any show. Half of Russia can be seen at one of Amy Sacco's hotspots in the city any day of the week. Russians are suddenly in. It could be because of their fabulous liquor, or their heavy fashion influences?

I mean, who wants a size 2 blonde girls with big boobs and a bubble butt? These prom queen look-a-likes are so common these days, the euphism is called. . .." commercial "

What ethnicity will be next? the Indian/Middle easterners are a good bet, or the Asian/Oriental posse? My bet is on the Asians.

So we should all raise our vodka martini glasses and propose a toast to the fabulous Russians. Do we love them? Absolut-ly

I'm Back!

2005-10-29T12:50:00.000-07:00

I'm back from London!

London fashion week was very very interesting. No one does it like the Brits. The Agent Provocateur show was quite good. but that one year with Dita Von Tesse was absolutely fabulous. I did alot of shopping on my trip, naturally. I bought a number of breast cancer benefit items, and tons of SHOES, SWEATERS and BLOUSES( and purses, and coats, and skirts too for that matter). I went to Savile Row with a friend and helped him find the most stunning suit.

The British are much more relaxed and open than the Americans. Everyone tells me to move to Paris, but I can't imagine myself anywhere but NYC.

So my rent finally ended on the Hamptons property, hopefully next year, i'll get a house just as fabulous. I hate how New Jersey is moving to the Hamptons. I don't think New Jersey people get it; People go to the Hamptons to AVOID New Jersey people.

I think that the Hamptons should have an age limit. Over 20 or 21. I can't stand seeing teenagers and their posses everywhere being obnoxious in their Abercrombie and Fitch outfits, or even worse. . . SOLOWs.

SoLows are SO NewJersey/Long Island.

When Long Island got too cluttered and expensive, people started going to New Jersey. The better half had enought brains to move to Connecticut.

Connecticut and New Jersey have very distinct styles. A typical New Jersey living room tries to be contemporary and modern with Italian STYLE furniture from Seamans or Levitz, while Connecticut-ians are more of a nuveau Park Avenue.

New Jersey- Juicy. Connecticut- Lacoste
Maryland- Ralph Lauren. North Carolina- Abercrombie and Fitch. Florida- Lilly Pulitzer.

I am almost at the top of the waitlist for a Birkin. I am ADDICTED to Hermes, after my first bag( the Kelly), I couldn't stop. My first purchase was the belt and scarf, and then it grew to bags. (The Kelly was a gift).

I also did alot of horseback riding in England, and I kept my boots and they are so versatile and absolutely fabulous.

If you are a Vintage Jewelry fan, then you MUST go on a pilgrimmage to England. There's everything from Van Dell to The Royal Family knock offs. I got this great pearl necklace a la Princess Di for only 5000 american dollars. I think everything is expensive in the states now, because i'm so used to looking at pounds.

AND I got a haircut, at the most fabulous up and coming salon in London. I won't drop it's name, but I garantee it will be in Elle shopping section next month. It's short short short. for me anyways. I can still barely put it up, when i do, a few pieces fall at my neck. I guess thats the beauty of it. It's a better blonde now. I dare not go to my monthly appointment at Bergdorfs now because my colorist will get very upset with me.

November could be one of my favorite months. Take a wild guess why.

SHOPPING!

Ciao

There are no good flats. Flat.

2005-09-09T12:45:00.000-07:00

As I window shopped today through the streets of NYC, I realized that most shoe designers come up with the most ugliest flats I have ever seen in my entire life.

Why can't there be just one PERFECT flat company. the closest one that I found was French Sole, but even that it's too prima ballerina wannabe. Delman flats are good, but I personally do not like the pointy toe on my feet, but I do adore the style.

The only pair of flats I have ever liked. are those beautiful Louis Vuitton green Pleated flats. Oh my. those were perfection with a sole.

If the flat's aren't smothered with sequins, they have polka dots on them, or animal print, or an ugly heel, or are just plain hideous.

There should be a brand that only makes flats. it should be called. THIS IS THE ONE FOR YOU

Oh, and another thing.

when will people realize that mettalic/gold/silver bags that are sold at nordstroms, macys, and little stores like delias, and mandees are like a big poster board that says " JUST SHOOT ME"
I mean, I wear gold things sometimes for fun, but this is just ridiculous. the gold hobo bag was kicked out the fashion door when jessica simpson lugged it around. Don't even get me started on sequins and ripped jeans. It's friday.

Just a brief preview of subjects I will cover in the upcoming posts.

- Big hair, from the Valley girls to Dirty Jersey Girls( i'm sorry, i have a thing against jersey these days)

- Flip flops, and hideous shoes( volatiles deserved to be burned. while the person is wearing them.)

- Rampage killed the boho look

Have a fabulous weekend.
I'll be at East Hampton for the last time of the year.

Ciao

Would somebody gouge my eyes out

2005-09-08T22:43:00.000-07:00

Today was a very very tragic day for New Jersey in the fashion world( what day isn't )

As I walked. I think I was having dejavu . . . 5000000 times in a row.
all I saw was. . brown hair dyed blonde( hastily), tunic tops from wetseal to nordstroms.
miniskirts( from RAVE to nordstroms), and horrifying accesories.

Dear God.

I don't ever want to go back to New Jersey ever again.
once I read in VogueUS, that women from New Jersey always feel inferior( don't blame them) to the manhattanites, and conneticut women, thus; they tip better, are more ostentatious. They try much much harder. so hard that when you look at her, you know she's from new jersey.
The Long Island breed is a completely different woman according to the author. The LIB knows where she came from( brooklyn, Bronx, Staten Island) and she moved her way up to the island. She is possibly the most ornate of them all. Lose the gum, and the ornate-ness and you almost have a Jersey Woman.

this was just a quick entry to blow off some steam.

au revoir

First Post

2005-09-08T22:27:00.000-07:00

After many reccomendations, and suggestions from friends and pushy people.
I have decided to create this blog/journal/column about. . .

what people are wearing these days and what on earth they are thinking.

what to buy this season

what is out

and what trends/fads got KILLED ( * cough cowboy boots and hippie skirts)

I do not by any means consider myself a fashion virtuoso, but i do have a passion for it.
but not a " i love to go shopping and dress like jessica simpson passion"
but an Anna Wintour-esque passion.
for those who do not know who Anna Wintour is . . . go look her up or buy yourself some fashion magazines( cosmogirl and seventeen do not count)

I also do not mean to affend anybody. . . directly.
and I am very open to everybody's opinions.

so enjoy!
au revoir!
