WANTED: Alexander Wang Brenda Purse

Current obsession: Brenda purse. I am really into the size and hardware of this cutey little bag! I love that the straps are so skinny and long, it's so perfect. The price tag, however is not for my budget. Pick up the real Alexander Wang bag for $725 at barneys.com. Or try the Steven Madden version for $198, stevemadden.com. The question is which color is hotter?? I would love the nude, light blue and black!!

Alexander Wang's "Brenda" bag

Steven Maddens "B-Zipcross"

Is it right to be wrong and buy the cheaper one??

I have been designing for the brand sosume for about a year now....

International shipping is available so fashionistas everywhere can get the look.

HOT: Onesies/Rompers/Jumpsuits

Effortless: adj. Calling for, requiring, or showing little or no effort. See synonyms ateasy

1. Posing no difficulty: Informal Idioms: easy as ABC, easy as falling off a log, easy as one-two-three, easy as pie, like taking candy from a baby, nothing to it.
2. Marked by facility, especially of expression: see style/new style

That is why the onesie has made its official comeback!! I love vintage rompers, I have been collecting them for years now, and they are the epitome of effortless chic! One piece and you're off- I love the whole idea of it. I have just recently acquired a few great one pieces! I got a great long black one at, ::gasp::, Rainbow, for a mere $16.99 and also scored a few from Dolce Vita. Perfection.

HOT: Let's Get Some Shoes

Shoes.

I want some shoes.

Gimme those shoes.

I have been obsessing about a couple different shoes for this summer, so I thought I would share the goods. I've been into the fun, bright colors for sandals and big, chunky, black bad boys for heels. I also love the elastic band trend because it actually holds your feet in comfortably. I'm lucky to work at a shoe store so I actually have a couple of these already*, and will just have to salivate over the rest until I save up those paychecks!

STREET TREND: Neon

Obviously, this one isn't a secret, but I got off the bridge today and was loving this woman's outfit! On such a gray day I think that neon works its magic well. The guy behind her makes it so much better, and even the lady in purple gives this picture a fabulous color story. Work it!

STREET STYLE: 90's Fashion Hits NYC

In case you didn't get the memo, ridiculous 90's fashion is back in full swing. I snapped these 3 girls outside the Dolce Vita store in the Lower East Side. I'm not sure they actually lived through it the first time around but, each one of them has a serious look going on. Plaid school girl skirt ala Clueless, oversized unbuttoned flannel shirt, and their shoes are out of control. I will post more of these phenomena as I find it.

Separated at Birth? HA

As I watched a recent interview with Lady Gaga from a few months ago, I felt like, for some reason I knew those glasses...
How funny?

That is a picture from this past March at ScrummageFest in Detroit, Michigan. Fabulous? I think so.
