Natalie Portman at TIFF

Here are a couple of stunning pictures of Natalie Portman at TIFF. I just love her and her style. Laid back with a twist. Xoxo

The VMA's.

It was an interesting night in New york at Radio City Music Hall. The night was a tribute to the late Micheal Jackson. Yet Kanye West ruined it with his egotistical, narcissistic ways. Taylor Swift deserved her win!
Anywho-The fashion tonight was interesting and definitely full of silver and sparkles!Alessandra is gorgeous. She nailed her VMA look with this rocker chic ensemble and peep toe booties.
Well there are not enough words to describe but since it is designed by Jean Paul Gautier...it is still fabulous. I have mixed feeling about Lady Gaga's far fetched, 'look at me-look at me' style but I do love that song 'Paparazzi'.
This was my best dressed of the night. Perfect shimmery funky dress with the bold shoulder detail and some amazing cut-out studded booties. The hair and makeup. I do not use this word often but -FIERCE.
Taylor Swift is adorable. This dress is gorgeous. Maybe a little more Grammy's but Taylor came in a Cinderella-esque carriage so it works.
Love Katy Perry. She is like a real life Betty Boop. This dress is amazing-spikes, shimmer. What more can a girl ask for?
Pretty chic and very appropriate. Plus I love cutout shoulders.

Tough Bomber Jackets for Fall.

New York Fashion week for Spring 2010 is on a roll in Manhattan. Pictures to come in a bit. But Fall comes first so what is your prime investment for this season? A tough leather bomber jacket. Everyone loves leather jackets. I love how DSquared used a tweed overlay detail. Classic and edgy all in one piece.
Personally I would wear it with fun lace leggings and a fitted dress-all black. But that's just me.
Pictures to come from last night Fashion's Night Out.

Oxfords.

I love oxfords. Why? Because they remind me of the shoes I had to wear when I was a little girl with my uniform. Well and they are super comfortable and a great alternative to a basic flat. I have a pair of black and white ones from Steve Madden.

Boots.

I love boots. I have probably around 20 different pairs of boots. Crazy, I know. I am on the hunt for my new boot of the season. I am thinking studs? I already have the coveted black suede over-the-knee boot that I bought in Paris.
Now I really like the "Bromley' studded boots Sienna is wearing but they are way out of my price range. I found an excellent alternative. Just click here.

Teen Choice Awards: Red Carpet!!!

Some of my favorites from the red carpet at the Teen Choice Awards!
Amanda Bynes is probably the only person who can wear this color and rock it!

The best dressed for the evening goes to Leighton Meester in this fabulous striped creation and red pumps!

One of my favorites! Ashley Greene looks great in this floral skirt topped with a fun feather corset and fuschia, funky shoes!

Selena Gomez looks lovely in this powder blue one shoulder dress! Very chic!

Emma Roberts is adorable in white and black!

Ashley Tisdale wearing a purple ombre` strapless frock but it is the fabulous spiky Christian Loubs that do it!

Vanessa Hudges and Megan Fox both wearing a silhouette that is both flirty and flattering!

Who Wears Short Shorts!

Last summer, I wore nothing but dresses. This summer is a whole new story. I keep wearing shorts! Whether its jean shorts(or "jorts"), highwaisted, scalloped and silk, I find so many ways to wear them. I love mixing the sheer printed blousy top with my jean shorts and tall fringe gladiators. You can accessorize like crazy to make jean shorts not look...well trashy.
Let me know some of your own ideas for awesome short outfits!

Remember the MacroFashion Showcase that seems so so long ago? Well my Macro partner in crime-Ryan Auld is releasing his own T-shirt line in Baton Rouge, LA.
It looks amazing! I can not wait to purchase his Birds Away Tee(the colorful version!)

Everyone knows...

That I am a huge fan of Emma Watson...Yes I am not ashamed to admit my love for Harry Potter but her fashion sense is timeless. Recently Teen Vogue did an photoshoot and interview with her and I was not disappointed. The fashion was edgy and fun but still very classic. The prints, the colors, the styling was outstanding( well to me). I know I am a sucker for leopard print tights but my favorite is the chiffon gown with the structured blazer.
Here are some of the photos.

Rompers and Jumpsuits Galore!

Have you ever thought about wearing a jumpsuit or a romper? Well if you have already been through that era I recommend leaving it behind this time around but that doesn't mean I do not adore this trend. Actually, I love it! We have already put one in Nire`. Fergie's version is a new side I have not yet seen and as always her styling is impeccable. Shenae Grimes's version is lady like but she rocked it with those leggings and denim jacket. And naturally, the girls at Nire` made the jumpsuit a classic!
