How to Identify Trends

school of style Q & A

school of style is an awesomely fabulous school in L.A. run by famed celeb stylist luke storey, offering classes and workshops on how to be a wardrobe stylist. I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with my west coast buds on what it takes to make it in the world of style. read all about the juiciness here.

CBS Early Show is cooler than you

last week I was taken by surprise when the CBS early show hit on a trend that most young, hipster ladies are seen wearing on the brooklyn L train -- the granny shoe. I was so impressed with the fashion forward piece that I had to blog the world. or at least the massive australian audience on lostateminor who also coincidentally created that other ugly boot, uggs.

(A)ll (D)ay (I) (D)ream (A)bout (S)ex

maj and I were overwhelmed by the response left by friends on our FB vacation pix. I even got a call from my stylish friend, phu asking advice on what are appropriate gifts for a guy on a one year anniversary? I gave my man, a full adidas originals tracksuit in green. while not romantic, it was super cool and something he always wanted. watches, sunglasses and cologne are also great gifts for a significant. alpha in west hollywood is a great place to pick up a guy's gift. and any barney's or barney's co-op will have the hook up on luxury wallets, socks, weekend bags and ties.

silly jessie, bands are for kidz

it took me a trip to miami and a lost mission on lincoln road to finally succumb to the hottest trend that's hit the out of school streets: silly bandz! not only did I buy several packs to rock, I've paired them with my fave gold bangles and lisa blue whale charm bracelet. I'm so smitten, I'm even considering taking a pic to post to their famed website wall.

from miami fashion week: trend alert

the fashionistas and miami scene showed up in support of their miami fashion week and new trends were en fuego! most lovelies in the front row at the kelly cutrone-called shows were decked out in flow-y dresses with a spectrum of rainbow colors and pretty, soft graphics. color is the color du jour. the cutie pictured above got her right on trend find at h & m so the fashion elite is available for everyone! the swimwear for 2011 follows the same suit with bold colors and busying prints, with lisa blue, beach bunny and of course, bikini thief being the names to watch!

whatever lola wants

I'm totally obsessivo with the pint-sized offspring of the most influential performer of my time. ms. madonna ciccone has created a mini fashion mogul in her thirteen year old daughter, lourdes aka lola leon. the material girl collection will be out in macy's come august and I for one am totally ready to live in her world.

pharmacy chic

I've always been a HUGE fan and appreciator of pharmacy chic. some of my best finds have come from the rite aid on sunset, the gas stations of mississippi while on my NASA tour and this fourth weekend, the wal-greens in gloucester, mass. I picked up the cutest sailing cap. since gloucester is a fishing town, I'm pretty sure it was a bona-fide fishing / boating cap but pair it with gold hoops, oversized gold cocktail rings and the sailor romper I found on 34th street and we got ourselves an outfit. ahoy mateys!

happy fourth!

heading to beantown to celebrate our country's Independence by the sea. packed my U.S.A. flip flops that I picked up at target in the $1 bin. got my tamarindo suit packed. and my sailor-striped romper ready to rock over smores and sparklers on the beach.

corn on the cobzorb

my favorite part of the summer is food! ralph's italian ices, fresh long island corn on the cob and fried chicken to eat on the beach watching the sunset over the atlantic ocean. sometimes though, cooking the chicken can cause quite an oily mess. since I don't have a car that I can convert the oil to run on, I thought this doo-dad was something helpful to keep in the kitchen.

mother of pearl

I caught a showing of sex in the city over the weekend on HBO during which, carrie, effortlessly outfitted by the incomparable ms. patricia field wears a long single strand of pearls. over tees, over dresses over bikinis on the beach after big leaves her at the alter. I love the look and am looking for a great piece on eBay inspired by the incredible coco chanel for the right price to rock for summer.

crushing on kate

I want to live in a kate spade store.
