Red Alert!


As seen in most of the New York fashion week shows RED is the the it color this season, and I am ecstatic. It is such a statement color and a little bit of it goes a long way. Think about it a red peacoat, red heels, even just red lipstick can pretty much make ANY outfit.
This trend is echoed in Vogue's latest spread in their September issue. Inspired from its creative director, Grace Coddington, who a little red riding hood inspired shoot called "Into the Woods" with model Natalia Vodianova.
There are some great finds such as gorgeous affordable red heels I just saw in Zara and Steve Madden. As well as a cute red party dress in FCUK, and red peacoats are EVERYWHERE!
GO out and indulge in the red!

Escada files for bankruptcy!

The German fashion house has filed for bankruptcy in Munich after they failed to find sufficient banking from its investors. It is an international company with 180 shops and franchises in 60 countries! 
Escada is trying to stay afloat trying by asking its investors to cash in their loans at a reduced rate.. so far not really working! Over the 2007-2008 business year, the company has had losses of about 70.3 million euros.
The former Hugo-boss chief Bruno Saelzer has taken over as head of the company and has been unable to turn it around.  Pretty much since the death of it's co-founder, Swedish model Maragretha Ley, Escada has had a rough time. 
I for one hope they can find a way to get out of trouble, which I am sure they will. It would be a real loss if they didn't! Especially their very famous fragrance line which has been pretty much carrying the company as of late.
Finger crossed!

Jimmy Preview

Here is a little sneak peak to what Jimmy Choo's collection for H&M will look like!


I for one CANNOT wait for the day! So mark your calenders for November 14th! The prices will be a little more than regular H&M prices but not at all even close to as much as you would pay at a Jimmy Choo boutique or department store! That's the kind of math I like!

Seasonal High!



New trend of the season... over the knee-high boots. I am not too crazy about this trend as it can easy be done wrong! If you are gonna do it try and avoid a Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman look please!
However, this look can be worked to your advantage and can seriously make an outfit!
Wear them over jeans, be careful when wearing them with skirts though.

This look is available online with Victoria's secret for affordable fashion:

These are actually really cute worn with jeans and an oversized boyfriends white-shirt, cute vest and a headscarf.

Marc Jacobs handbags!


Marc Jacobs has launched his fall collection of handbags... I LOVE THEM.. 
The leather feels so smooth  and the shapes this season are gorgeous. I especially love the stardust theme he incorporated this year. He outdid himself for sure, compared to last year's collection (which was still good but this is just GORGEOUS). 
I know we're living in a time where no one is really gonna spend a lot on bags! So, what's great about these is they are classic so you really get a lot of milage out of them. A good investment that I for one cannot wait to make!

Safari/country!


New trend coming in this fall.... Safari and country blend!

A sneak of this trend can be seen in the Fall '09 shows of Chloe and Ralph Lauren. What's nice about this trend is there are a lot of neutral tones and beiges that are flattering to ALL skin tones. To complement the style use a nice neutral pink lip and natural make ups tones, so no dramatic colors.

Most of these styles are blanket coats with fabrics that freely wander around so during the cold weather you'll be all bundled up and looking great!

Mix and match with this style, wear a gold vest with a free flowing dress, nice leather belt with a high waisted pants, you get the idea.. layer with cowboy accents.

Holmes & Yang


SO, Katie Holmes sets out on yet ANOTHER venture! I don't understand what she's trying to prove honestly.. She has been trying to land big roles, dance in 'So you think you can dance", sing and now she's designing... I mean I guess you gotta respect the girl for trying, living in Tom Cruise's shadow can't be easy...

Anyway, her and her stylist Jeanne Yang will be working on a line of which no pictures have yet  leaked. All the clues we have as to what this line will be like are the outfits Katie Holmes has been wearing these days which are all of her own design, such as the one in this picture.

Furthermore, there are now rumors that Ms. Holmes er, Cruise will also be designing a high-end kiddie line...

Well, I for one am interested to see what the woman comes up with but am not holding my breath. The line will be out this fall and will probably be quite expensive..
Stay tuned..

Comme De Garcons and CONVERSE


Converse tries to make their products even MORE edgy (if thats possible). Right after teaming up with Missoni Converse does not fail to impress when announcing their next endeavour.. Converse is teaming up with the french avant- garde fashion label Comme De Garcons, PLAY line. Rei Kawakubo from Comme De Garcons is to design these sneakers, drawing inspiration from converse's rich history to create these new looks. So expect things such as military stlyle and 1950s look.

The sneakers will have the heart logo of the PLAY line instead of the regular converse logo. I really like these, even though I'm not really a sneakers person but this new twist on the regular converse that we have all come to love is definitely at least worth a look at.
These sneakers will be sold for about $100, available at Comme De Garcons boutiques that carry the PLAY line.
