Christian Louboutin's Cinderella Shoe

Barf, this shoe has the taste level of a 10 year old. But what did I expect when the inspiration came from the Disney cartoon Cinderella?  this is no princess shoe.

Who can wear this? if you are over the age of 15 please do not have butterflys on your feet. If you are under the age of 20 you should not own CL shoes.

No Likie.

red pants!

Me Lovie Red Pants! These guys are trending everywhere and it's easy to pick up a cheap pair at H&M or Zara!

Mixing it up

This bag from Trico Field is totally amazing with denim, heritage woven fabric, and military themes combined

red laces

i LOVE red hunter/hiking laces! buy them separately and put on any shoe to add some hipster edge

this is a great shot from R29, from the band of outsider's casting call

long skirts

we touched on long skirts last year, and this trend is still growing! i love these looks from St John's Fall 11

over the knee socks

OTK socks can be fantastic when worn in blacks, greys and neutral colors. Avoid looking cheap by adding masculine touches, don't go over the top girl. I love these american apparel socks worn with heavy boots!

Ps1 "Move!"

PS1 had a fabulous collaboration of artists and fashion designers on display Oct 29-31st. Participation from viewers was encouraged in most exhibitions and the whole building was rocking with Halloween influenced style.

Lanvin for H&M

From Refinery29: A preview image from the Lanvin for H&M collection was just released, and lord are we thrilled. The models, from left, are Hannelore Knuts, Jane Schmitt, Tati Collitar, and Natasha Poly—all shot by David Sims, and looking like quite the fine bunch of ladies. And with full Lanvin drama, the one-shoulded puff dresses, ruffled LBDs, textured trenches, and tuxedo tops are exactly what we'd hoped Alber Elbaz would diffuse for his H&M collection. We have to wait until November until the full collection of images are released (that's 30 pieces and 15 accessories for women, and 25 pieces and 10 accessories for men), but until then, we can ogle the pieces right here.

Cotton Prices Soar - highest in 140 years

It was the highest level for cotton since cash prices paid to farmers during the Civil War when blockades prevented shipments from leaving the South, said Sharon Johnson, a senior cotton analyst at Penson/FCG.
http://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D9ISBR2G0.htm

U.S. cotton futures jumped last Friday (10/15/10) to their highest
level since the U.S. Civil War in the 19th century, then fell
in late trade to end the session down the daily limit.

Taylor Swift

"If I had to describe my style in one word, it would be 'experimental'"

Taylor, we love you, but you are way to pretty and manicured to be called experimental. You do look cute, props to your stylist!

Fabric Mixing

Making old styles fresh again, try mixing one part trim fabric with two parts base fabric
