OH NO YOU DIDN'T: Appalled/Sad/Horror

I know everyone loves Rodarte for their craftsy knit pieces, and they've been the choice for many celebrities gowns for events and such. The collaboration they did with Christian Louboutin on the runway was crazy. BUT I have to say, I am absolutely appalled by this after-party for the Met's new exhibition "Model as Muse." A huge night for fashion and drama, and Metropolitan Museum celebrated over 50 years of amazing style. The two sisters apparently hosted an after-soiree downtown, and wore this.


COME ON GIRLS!!!!!!
That is just ridiculous. You don't show up to your own party looking like you walked out of American Eagle.

Seriously, I'm really disturbed.

And what's with the matching shoes?? They obviously put some thought into the whole thing- like, "oh lets both wear the world's most boring matching black FLATS." Where's the drama? Where's the fashion? How dare they call themselves designers.....

WHY!?!

However, some of their guests to the chance to celebrate style and fashion and looked amazing.

Now, THAT'S how you do it. At least the sisters could have gone for more black?? It's classic, dressy, and slimming. Shouldn't they have known better!?!?!

SEEN: Best Friend Syndrome

As I was walking to the train this morning I got stuck behind these two girls, who obviously spend a little too much time together. It was so funny especially when looking at their accessories and color palettes, that one like cooler tones and grays, and the other liked warmer, gold tones. Very funny.

INSPIRED: Flea Market, Melbourne, Australia

On my recent trip to Australia, I visited a very large exciting flea market with all these tiny booths filled with lots of random funny things. I was very inspired by the colors I found- I love all the pretty pastels!







And while walking past a appliance store in midtown.....


And the last of my pictures for this post is from a small vintage store on Grand Ave in Williamsburg which happened to have some of the prettiest dresses I've seen, I was even suckered into buying one....

A Night To Remember...

I love this picture, so perfect.

At the inaugural ball last night the world witnessed the radiant presidential couple have their first dance to Beyonce's rendition of "At Last." Both looked stunning, with him and his bow tie and her so trendy asymmetrical Jason Wu dress. What a cute couple, they deserved that beautiful night.

I think white was a great choice for the both of them, it definitely was a classy, bi-partisan look, not tacky!

And the First Lady Wore....

Isabel Toledo designed the dress with matching dress coat for the first lady that she wore today for her husband, Barack Obama's inauguration. Yes she can! The outfit I think was beautiful and I am wearing my bright blue blazer today in spirit as well. What will she be tonight at the ball?

PRESIDENTIAL NEWS: Michelle Obama's Dress

The most exciting presidential inauguration ceremony in my lifetime is happening tomorrow- aren't you happy? The big questions are coming up.....what will be in his speech, who's at the inauguration balls, and most importantly, what will Michelle Obama be wearing?? Many designers submitted their sketches for the big day. Any predictions? I am posting my top picks, I noticed a lot of asymmetrical shoulders! I'll wear red white or blue tomorrow too!

One of my favorite sketches, from Elie Tahari,

Love this illustration, by Zac Posen (above and below).

I love the idea of Micheal Kors doing the inauguration dress, he is the ultimate American designer.
