It’s rare that I find more than one thing I like from a MMM collection so pardon my own shock while I relish in this…
Usually, I find MMM exceptionally over the top and hard to comprehend but these…..I love!

PFW Spring/Summer 2014: Christian Dior
Paris Fashion Week
Spring/Summer 2014
The house of Dior is getting back into the swing of things! From head to toe…or should I say from eyebrow to toe!
Yes, EYEBROW!
The make-up artist (which I’m still feverishly searching for and probably just overlooking lol) did the damn thing with the models…this is what I mean…
Ladies and gentlemen…welcome to
The Dior Show
When a designer decides to step out of the box yet still have a collection that is actually wearable, it’s a dream come true for me! Sometimes, we get one or the other…too far out there fashion or not far enough.
Christian Dior pulled off the incredible with a preppy school girl meets grown up look.
Preppy, sexy, and my favorite look
The Bags
Somehow, some way, Rena has to get her hands on THIS bag.
The Shoes

That. Is. Fashion.

Spring/Summer 2014
Do not adjust your display settings! This is not a test!
This is in fact, the ready to wear collection from AVH for spring and summer 2014.

Apparently, Anne Valerie Hash wants us all to only walk around at night with a black light as our guide. Since I was temporarily without a pc, I didn’t see this show stream live but I could imagine it started with a gasp. This collection is different…way different. Not a complaint either just totally unexpected!

Spring/Summer 2014
Paris is almost ALWAYS my favorite stop on the fashion bus every season. Not because it’s beautiful and I would LOVE to live there one day….it’s because there’s usually a slight glimmer of hope a Texas rodeo will be presented down the runway! Paris is such a happy place!
Did I say a Texas rodeo? What I meant to say was sexy bandits!
Or outlaws….

One thing is for sure…if this means the summer of 2014 will be filled with me wearing a scarf/bandana and leather fringe boots…I’m totally game!
Who’s Turning Down Free Coffee?
Most certainly not me! National Coffee Day is right around the corner…literally! Sunday, September 29th is the day you might wanna go out into the wild and grab a free cup of Joe. Several retailers will be participating in this holiday by offering free java or a BOGO (buy one get one) type of deal during the weekend.
Here’s the rundown on stores that have a free jolt:
Download their app and present it to get your free cup. They’ll also have discounts on their take home brews.
Offering one free cup on 9/29 ONLY!
If you remember last year, Starbucks didn’t do anything for National Coffee Day and received TONS of backlash! This year, they’re offering a sample of the new Ethiopian Blend
Free java on Sunday, Sept. 29th
Be a social butterfly by telling your barista “Happy National Coffee Day” for your cup of joe!
The donut company has taken the holiday one step further…several lucky patrons will win FREE COFFEE for a YEAR! <~~~ click to enter!
If any other coffee lovers find more deals, feel free to share those freebies below! Enjoy your National Coffee Day!
MFW: Versace
Milan Fashion Week
Spring/Summer
Once in awhile there comes a collection that has everything I’ve ever wanted and needed. Sometimes it happens several times during the fashion season but other times, it happens once. I think Versace is the one. So, unless you’re a new visiting stylish sweet, you know what happens when I love everything…….
That’s right see it here (thanks to FashionTV on youtube)

Versace Spring/Summer 2014 Ready to Wear Collection
Straight from Milan Fashion Week
And now……my ULTIMATE Versace faves!!
If there’s ONE thing I want to own RIGHT NOW, it’s this leather jacket!
The Details: OH EM GEE!
If there’s one thing I want to own
Does anyone have a direct line to Donatella Versace? I need her to make a special order for a stylish chick with curves! A body chain that can fit over real big boobs, pants that fit a booty, and a belt that compliments these curves. I’d ask for shoes but that might be a bit much…plus, I’m an average size 8 sooo…good to go in the shoe department!
Love Everything!
Want It All!
Can I Have It?
I know, I know…I say that a lot but this is fashion season and I’m bound to love everything something!
In the words of our great philosopher, Aubrey Graham aka Drake (who has a new album coming out September 24th…)

Milan Fashion Week
Spring/Summer 2014
Here are my faves from the colorful display of awesomeness that is, Cavalli!
Oh wait….there’s more!
“The Spring/Summer 2014 collection is inspired by a surreal and imaginary world. Beyond the limits of space and time, the #JustCavalli woman blossoms in cyber-Eden and she dresses with modern candor.” ~ Just Cavalli

MFW: Ports 1961
Milan Fashion Week
Spring/Summer 2014
Totally my first time looking at a Ports show…gotta say, it’s different. Different in a good way. It’s not your average high end designer look, it’s a walk on a different street.
I definitely want to walk on this street! Give me mauve/rose/dusty pink and I’m your best friend FOR LIFE!
Hello Ports 1961, nice to meet you.
