Victoria Secret Round-Up

I wouldn't be much of a fashion blogger if I didn't recap the Victoria's Secret Fashion Showed that took place last week. The outfits were amazing and crazy, as always, and Heidi Klum who had her baby just 6 weeks ago, put on her stilettos and strutted down the runway, looking gorgeous.


The big outfit of the night was the $3 million dollar bra that Marisa Miller got to wear, but to be honest this bra doesn't compare to the previous big listing bras we've seen in the annual show. Regardless $3 million is $3 million so of course I had to mention it.

Look at these photos and more posted by Luxist.com but also check out the event when it aires December 1st.

Angels return to NYC

This Friday the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show will take place in NYC, the first time since 2005. The show will air December 1st on CBS and will host returning angels like Marisa Miller and possibly new angel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (who is said to be the cousin of the Queen of England), but a few favorites, Heidi Klum and Adriana Lima may or may not make an appearance due to pregnancies (it was reported on the 16th that Lima gave birth to a baby girl, Valentina Lima Jaric). For more info or to see Marisa Miller, Alessandra Ambrossio, and a few other ladies on CBS's The Early Show visit here Fashionologie Blog and while you're at it favorite this blog, its a great site for up-to-date fashion tips, events, secrets, and who's who of the fashion world, what I hope one day I can accomplish.

Obsessing


Ever since I saw the episodes of 'The Hills' where Whitney Port wears Hillary Swanks dress and falls down the stairs I have been obsessed with the pencil skirt that the demon NY intern wore. It was navy blue and she wore it with an oversized white button up and it looked so classy. I have been on the hunt for one ever since and finally found one! BCBG of course and I love it.

Most Wonderful Time of the Year

After Halloween I cant help but skip over Thanksgiving, obviously because Christmas and my birthday are coming, but I love the atmosphere of Winter. I like the smells, the cheerful mood everyone is in when the first snow falls and the amazing food! I'm Italian so when I go home all I smell is food coming out of the oven and it literally makes my mouth water.

This Christmas/Bday however I am not asking for much. As everyone knows times are tough in this downward spiraling economy and I figured my parents have already paid for my college (not cheap) tuition, so the least I can do is be reasonable this year. The things I am asking for are simple, some expensive but only a few items, and most things I have wanted forever. These are the big things I am asking for this year:


Everyone needs a pair of Ray-Bans and these aviators style 3025 are screaming my name



To further my love for fashion I have decided to start my collection of fashion literature. What better way to be up-to-date than to see the evolution over time. Trends come back, styles change...it's a must have.

What do you want this year?!

LnA

One of my new favorite brands is LNA. Created by Lauren Alexander and April Leight, the idea of LNA started that Lauren and April wanted to design comfy casual clothes with a little bit of spunk. Their clothes can be seen on, as many people know, my favorite celeb Kim Kardashian, Megan Fox, and Ashley Tisdale. High end, but affordable to most. Visit the website and trust me youll fall in love. http://www.lnaclothing.com

Lily Allen for Chanel

Chanel has always been known for its elegance and classy look. From fragrance to clothes and luxurious handbags, Chanel is one of the highest names in High End fashion, but the new line, featuring Lily Allen, has left me confused and mostly uninterested. I for one have always been a fan of Chanel bags and think that they will never go out of style, but I sincerely hope that these bags too, and maybe when they become a trend I will be kicking myself for saying these things, but realistically I dont see that happening.

Lily Allen looks gorgeous in her tiara and typical Chanel black dress but the bag looks like a down comforter and just is unappealing in the ad. It's just so heartbreaking to see something so glamorous and classy look so ugly. You can see the whole collection at chanelcocococoon.com

Erin Gilmore, the new Kat Von D

With Halloween behind us and Thanksgiving over the horizon it seems as if candy overload and fall feasts will never escape us. I for one ate more candy than I thought imaginable, not saying I didn't love it, and now I am preparing myself with turkey eating pants. Halloween was a success I cant say I got the style award, my outfit consisted of a yellow construction paper symbol of batman and a trash-bag as a cape. My room mates however definitely took the creative and stylish awards for the weekend dressing up as a box of Franzia, Kat-Von-D from Miami Ink, a Nuva Ring girl, Barbie, and Alex from A Clockwork Orange. Throw in batman and you've got a unique looking group of gals, pictures will be posted later. 



This past weekend got me thinking how creative the concept of Halloween is and how good people look when they are stepping out of the norm. My room mate Erin for example, dressed up at Kat-Von-D, if you don't know who is she, she's the former Miami-Ink then turned LA-Ink tattoo artist. she has tattoos all over herself including hands, neck, and face, and can rarely be seen without crimson red lipstick on. It's  a hard look to pass off but my room mate nailed it, making it seem as if she too should have stars above her left eye. I will post a picture later, but my room mate was as close to identical as you could get, and she looked as if she should normally have tattoos everywhere and vixen style makeup. Halloween in general just makes me think that people should step out of the norm and experiment every now and then, they might find something they like.
