I LOVE LOVE LOVE Catherine Malandrino’s clothes.I first heard of her when Blair Waldorf wore the marroon dress in Gossip Girl, and I checked out CM’s website for gorgeous clothes. I chanced upon the store in Meat market, and fell in love with absolutely everything. This is what you call design and fashion. Gorgeous use [...]

Theory
Posted in designer, fashion, shopping, tagged designer, fashion, shopping, theory on July 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Theory is a clothing (men & women), handbags, and shoes brand sold through department stores and its own stores. The brand is VERY pricey. Its USP is that its clothing is made of a lycra-like material that makes it stretchy and comfortable; the clothes last quite long. I wonder, will customers pay $150-$200 for clothing [...]
Herve Ledger, a trend-setter

Herve Ledger is hands down my favorite designer. I love his bandage dresses. He is extremely creative in adding different elements of color and style to make his dresses all look different. Gilt had them on sale, $2,ooo pieces for $400-$500. Not surprisingly, within a day they were all sold out. They were such gorgeous [...]
Jumpsuits everywhere

Remember when I blogged about jumpsuits? Now this overgrown toddler trend is everywhere! Who brought this trend back? Models don’t look as bad, and neither did my co-worker who wore one today, but I am not changing my mind about this. Why oh why would you want to wear one of these? What if you [...]
Christian Louboutin rated by Yelp
Posted in designer, fashion, shopping, tagged christian louboutin, designer, fashion, shopping on March 12, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Yelp lists Christian Louboutin as a best shopping stop in New York. After reading reviews I realized that CL’s trademark is the red sole. I checked out the collection on Neiman Marcus, and the heels are gorgeous. However, they do not justify the price tag. Do shoes with red soles justify the hefty price tag? [...]
Valentino

I love Valentino, but never had a chance to look at it closely. I walk by upscale stores such as Chanel, Prada, etc., but never have the courage to walk into them. See I don’t want to be snubbed by the salespeople there. Obviously I think its a waste of money to spend on these [...]
Oscar 2009

Overall a very disappointing red carpet at the Oscars. Red color, statement jewelry, and one shoulder dresses were the trend. A (wo)man (Robin Roberts) is presenting with dear Tim Gunn. Robin looks so much better with longer hair. Love love love the Slumdog kids – adorable Poor Jessica Biel – her laundry was hanging from [...]
The jumpsuit – fashion fad or folly
Posted in fashion, tagged fad, fashion, jumpsuit on February 15, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I hate jumpsuits – they look dowdy and ugly, and are impractical. If at all, they would work well only as shorts, not pants or capris. They look like high-waisted mommy jeans and you have to have a very flat stomach to make them work. When you sit, they tend to balloon up in the [...]
Jill Stuart

I have heard of Jill Stuart, but came across the designs for the first time on Gilt. They feature drapery and pleats, and I cannot figure out what the essence is. What does the designer stand for? Not much innovation in designs. I like how the dresses flow though. Frills, pleats, and ruffles have been [...]
More sales from Gilt Groupe

I love Gilt Groupe and their sales. My second fav is Rue La La. I don’t like The Top Secret because their site is blah. Gilt is truly high fashion, Rue La La has stuff that you can actually buy because it is easier on the wallet. I wanted to post Alexander McQueen pictures but [...]
