Shameless Knock Offs: The City Girl
I lived in my Christian Louboutin City girl sandals last summer and plan to bring them out again when the sun shines again. They are the perfect luggage brown color that goes with everything and are so comfortable! I made 3 different girlfriends buy them, that’s how much I love them. So imagine how annoyed [...]
Frugal Snob: Alexander McQueen for Target
Alexander McQueen is the latest designer to do a Target’s collection. This line is inspired by the band The Duke Spirit – my brother in law is their manager so he showed me the line before it hits the stores. The studded denim jacket totally rocks! It has a 80′s feel which is so in [...]
Snob Trend: Sexy Back!
An exposed back is subtle and sexy– it leaves everything to the imagination while exposing a good amount of skin. I hope we will eventually move away from the big fake boob trend. I don’t know why women think melons are cute as breasts? This fabulous dress from Brian Reyes is the perfect example of [...]

Photos from Style.com — from left Narciso Rodriguez, Alexander Wang, Charlotte Ronson By far my favorite runway trend this season was cut-outs. They were literally everywhere from pants, to shoulders, to the chest-area — such a chic way to show-off a little skin! Does anyone remember when bag designer extraordinaire Rebecca Minkoff designed clothing (she’s [...]
Gucci Lucy Platform
I am in awe of these super fly platform shoes from Gucci in black suede and metallic python. I mean they make such a strong statement you can pretty much wear whatever you want because trust me, barring from being naked– no one is going to notice anything but these shoes. I stumble in my [...]
Leanne Marshall Fall 2009 Presentation
It was totally worth waiting out in the cold for 30 minutes to check-out Leanne Marshall’s (pictured on the top right), latest nine-piece collection. The Project Runway alum was running late and so the dozens of people that had gathered to check-out her show were huddled shivering outside the space where she was showing..thankfully I [...]
