Looking Who's Turning Heads: Christian V. Siriano

Mr. Fierce is turning heads. Christian V. Siriano, my favorite Project Runway designer of all time, has a beyond fab collection for Spring 2009. Can this guy pull together high fashion or what? I love him and was so proud to see someone from our area make it big. You go boy!!!! These are my favorites from his too fab collection. The second dress down is to die for. See the entire collection here.








Look Who's Turning Heads: Twelve by Twelve @ Forever 21

The Twelve by Twelve line at Forever 21 is one of my favorite lines among the chains. I love it edgy style and wonderful use of colors. This line uses colors that you don't see all the time. That's one reason why I love it. Another reason why I love it is because it looks grown-up. Forever 21 is for the young. But Twelve by Twelve is the mature big sister that has loads of class, style but with a funky twist that will turn heads for sure. These are my picks at Twelve by Twelve. See more here.











Look Who's Turning Heads: Hale Bob

Hale Bob is turning heads because of this brand's quirky style. Feather balls on shoes, vibrant colors and patterns and unusual silhouettes set this brand apart. These are my favs (of course there would be shoes). See the entire collection here.

Look Who's Turning Heads - Celebrity: Amy Adams


I want to spotlight one celebrity each week that I believe has got the fashion thing down (at least for that week...lol). My pick this week is Amy Adams. I love this look and of course she is wearing my most favorite designer, Giambattista Valli. Love him! She looks amazing. Well done.

Indie Spotlight: Sparkling Lotus Design

In our neverending effort to showcase indie designers, we are spotlighting indie jewelry designer, Sparkling Lotus Design. These amazing pieces are created with semi-precious stones, shells, wood, glass, crystal, and some vintage materials in an effort to explore the relationships between texture and color. It is evident that these pieces pull from nature and various cultures to give each piece a very unique look. I loved every piece in this collection. It was hard to choose a favorite, so I posted all of my favorites. There are plenty fabulous choices in this shop. See for yourself here.

I Am Not Feeling The Snow.... Yuck


In a non-fashion related post, can it just stop snowing here. I only like snow for two hours tops, then I want it all gone. Maybe I need to move to California. You think? Please stop snowing/sleeting... Argggghhhh.

Normally, I am feigning over his shoes, but I love this bag by Loeffler Randall. Get it at Goldyn's.

What I Want Now: Lamb @ Revolve Clothing

There are always shoes. Shoes are always on my mind. It is a serious thing. LOL! I have to force myself not to buy shoes. Lately, I have been good. But the itch is still there. I want 'em. Lamb available at Revolve Clothing.

What I Want Now: Stella McCartney @ Net-a-Porter

The naughty little broad in me really wants this little number by my girl, Stella McCartney. I love her. Her clothes are so beautiful and feminine while being attainable. She is one of the few designers in the black during these difficult time and I know why. Go Stella! Get these sexy pieces at Net-a-Porter.com.


Buy of the Day: oh...DEER! @ HSN

Okay, I have been stalking these shoes on every web site that have this brand. No one has felt the need to put the shoes on sale. Why not, right? So, when I least expected it, I found 'em on SALE on HSN.com for $49.95. Mind you, the cheapest that I have seen these is $129.99. So I am putting these in my shopping cart as we speak. So much for not buying shoes. Send help :-)
