NYFW FALL 2011: INTO THE WILD

NYFW takes a trip to the exotic.
Animal prints, tribal fabrics and colorful blends are my absolute favorite parts of what's in store for Fall 2011. 
Though I've always wanted to take a trip to embark upon an African safari,
I don't mind settling for these eclectic runway looks in the meantime. 


NYFW FALL 2011: GLAMOUR AMOUR

I thing the glitz and glam is one of the greatest things about being a girl.
If anybody knows how to jazz up a gown, sequins, or a fuzzy fur,
it would be a woman.


NYFW FALL 2011: DARK & DAPPER

Crazy. Sexy. Cool.
No, I'm not talking about TLC. lol
Playing around with the ideas of androgyny and sultriness, 
New York Fashion Week took a walk on the dark side.


NYFW FALL 2011: ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES

With us nearing the 20th anniversary of Marc Jacobs' infamous grunge collection--the one that got him fired from Perry Ellis and yet launched him into being one of the greatest designers of all time--Joesph Altuzarra couldn't have picked a better time to debut his take on teen spirit.
Rich burnt oranges and dark olives, silky satin dresses with shredded hems, and fur-frilled parkas are all diverse elements that seem to work so perfectly together.


NYFW FALL 2011: IN LIVING COLOR

Although we're still in the dreary midst of winter,  the bright future of fashion for the year's end has made its way down the runways of New York City. Fall 2011 takes on a colorful twist, giving the finger to the blah mood that sunshine-less weather brings while not turning a blind eye to the furs, heavy layers, and woolen fabrics that keep us toasty.

HELLO LOVER

Christian Siriano, Fall 2011 RTW

Doesn't this just scream Carrie Bradshaw?!!!?!?!
This entire look has SJP written all over it.
If it weren't for the bipolar weather and the meager limits of my bank account,
I'd wear this everyday! lol

HE'S A KEEPER


I don't know how I failed to mention how my Valentine's Day went,
but nonetheless, it was amazing...
considering the fact that I got these puppies as a gift from Kevin!
My first pair of Jeffrey Campbell kicks!
Aren't they amazing?
I still can't believe they're mine! ALL MINE! ha ha haaa {evil laugh} lol
This year, V-Day was all about simplicity.
Nothing too fancy, just a yummy dinner and some QT.
This gift was the icing on the lovey dovey cake,
and I can't wait to get my hands on another pair.

ORANGE GROVE


Sadly enough, I'm just now realizing the beauty of the UC Riverside campus. 
I guess since I've been so focused on leaving ever since I arrived,
I haven't paid the scenery much attention. lol
....College does that to you....
Being that my school is big on research, we have tons of oranges....
e v e r y w h e r e .
I'm often tempted to snatch one up for a quick snack when I come across a random orange grove,
but then the huge warning signs that caution against the fruits' pesticides
remind me that the forbidden fruits are not stomach friendly.
