Long time no see!

Hello there darlings!!
I hope your Christmas was great! I have been M.I.A. it's true, but I've missed blogging so much.
I was in a FUNK right before and around Christmas because I went to the DOCTOR <-(UGH) and got some UGLY news *rolls eyes*. But I'm back and I'll get busy making up for lost time!

Christmas highlights:
I got my new phone [Huawei(U7519)Tap] in berry :)
I also got a blue cardigan from AE that I LOVE

Till next time darlings :)

I realized how much WORDS are on here when my friend Delante pointed out that it's alot to read and he's soooo right (luv ya Delante). So i suppose I'll email the blogger ppl and see whats UPP!!

Till next time Darlings :)

Hey young world!!

It is no longer common place to pass off 'immature' clothing items to teens and young adults. Why??? because we are on the cutting edge of fashion these days. More often than not young people ages 15-25 are sporting straight from the runway looks. We're throwing around names like Dior, Louboutin, Chanel, Gaultier, and Marc Jacobs. We're studying the fashion world and bringing it to life on the streets. We're designers by the time we're 17-18. Our try anything attitude is perfect for the extreme fashion world.
So to all my creative people out there do not at all be afraid to show these old dolls how it's done, Eventually they'll get tired of outdated fashion for the sake of 'looking like a harlot' or 'looking like a child' because when their stuck in a rut and want their style revamped...it's us young ones they'll turn to.

Till next time Darlings :)

"You don't match".... "Thanks" :)

I look back on how simple minded I was about clothing and one word comes to mind: "match".You just have to match....right?. Most people used to think that and many still do. However now that I've grown up I realize that "matching" is not at all necessary nor does it make sense...I'd rather coordinate :)

Match:
n. One that is exactly like another; a counterpart.
v. to correspond; be of corresponding size, shape, color, pattern, etc.: These gloves do not match.

Coordinate:
n. A set of articles, as of clothing or luggage, designed to complement one other, as in style or color.
v. To form a pleasing combination: shoes that coordinate with the rest of the outfit.

Some people today are so stuck on using that word 'Matching'. An outfit that's well put together coordinates, and all pieces flow from one to the other as opposed to you dressing in one color and looking like a MILKMAN or a NINJA.
So don't be concerned if you can't get the pink in your skirt to exactly match the pink in your top, if they're in the same color family you have nothing to worry about. The more carefree and confident you are in your sense of style the less you'll worry about trivial things like 'matching'. The key is finding colors that work well together and work well on you.

Till next time Darlings!

She's Finally here!!!

After a LOOONGG debacle with my scanner I was finally able to get the picture of 'Isadore Noir' onto my computer :) There she is behind the title. I hope she's all you thought she would be...My dear friend, Erika G. managed to capture everything that was going on in my head as far as Isadore is concerned. I think she did an amazing job of making her race-less because I feel she appeals to every woman with class!

P.s. Don't you just LOVE Isadore's LEGS :)

Update

Hey Darlings,

I haven't posted in three days... I think that's too long for a new blog! However GOOD things are going on in Isadore's world.
1. In two days flat a friend of mine managed to whip up Ms.Isadore Noir herself!!!! I'm so happy :) That drawing along with an interview and many of her other works (and some of her BF's) will be posted within the next couple of days (how cute they are both artists).
2. I, along with mother will be going on a makeup run to ULTA and Target. I'm looking specifically for some Urban Decay 24/7 liners and their Eyelash primer potion- and some new makeup brushes from Eco tools.
3. OMG!! I'm so excited about this!! Another artist friend of mine whose along the lines of tattooing designed two simple tattoos, but she drew them on me FREEHAND with a SHARPIE lol. Even my mom was in love with them! On my left hand it says 'New York' and the right says 'Vegan'. I love them both and I want her to do a 'Vegan' one for my next birthday...in vegan ink of course. (pics of the sharpie tats will be up soon)

As promised I am working on gathering some of my favorite looks from Men's Spring 2010 fashion shows- because there's nothing like a well dressed man :)

Till next time darlings ;)

"Fresh out of County"

Ladies and ESPECIALLY Gentlemen,

The above picture is NOT under any circumstance acceptable in civilized society. If you are currently in jail and have no choice, then SAG ON.
I don't care what part of the country you live in/are from, sagging jeans are NOT acceptable!! That PENITENTIARY SWAG is NOT it.
Think of it like this sagging jeans=easy access.

Take that with you when you're buying your jeans five sizes too large or shimmying them down, MR.THUG LIFE. And ladies don't allow your man to dress like this and don't settle by getting with a man that dresses like this.

I'll be back with some Spring 2010 men's looks that are sensible versions of how guys today should carry themselves!!

Till next time Darlings :)

Eternal Expresso

Hey Darlings,

So, I'm on a bit of a mission to grow my nails. It's not that they don't grow, I'm just horrible with using them as TOOLS and abusing them ie. picking at stuff,scratching,washing dishes, peeling them etc. Thank goodness I'm not a nail biter!I think I want them Rihanna long :) but that's a bit extreme..just a classy LONG is fine.
I did my weekly manicure today and I LOVE this color so much I've done it twice in a row now!!! It's Sally Hansen's NO CHIP 10 Day Nail Color in Eternal Expresso. It's a smooth shimmery pinkish shade that hides mistaks WELL(It reminds me of Nuvo). On their site it's advertised as a more brown shade but don't be fooled it's pink...I only did two coats because I still wanted it to be a soft pink (the bottle instructs 2-3 coats). I think it transcends all seasons and if fading occurs it's hardly noticed.

Here are some pictures :)
The second picture of my hand has 2 coats of polish
the last is a picture of Rihanna's nails (via thefablife.com)

Late night ramblings

Hey! :) Iknow it's LATE- OR EARLY RATHER
Hope you guys had an amazing Thanksgiving! Im sure it was filled with lots of family and FOOD. I had gotten dressed up to cook but I never took pictures OOOPS!! Maybe I could recreate the look and take pictures.

On another note:
I've been working extremely hard on this blog drafting up ideas! It's my baby right now :) and I feel like it should really be an extension of myself. I have high hopes for it and I can't wait for the roller coaster to FINALLY start!

On a Fashion note:
It's black Friday!! go get your shop on...as far as I'm concerned the winter season has long begun and my opaque tights are in FULL SWING! (Although I want more pairs) I'm also on a hunt for the perfect platform heels ie. Steve Madden's (faux)Patent Leather Platform 'Socialit'
OK my darlings thats all for now
catch you Later (:-)
