Fashion Week

Fashion. Week.

It’s here!

I had an epiphany…more like an EUREKA! moment.  Well maybe it wasn’t anything like that but I did wake up out of a deep slumber to type this so that has to count for something, right?  Anywho,  I really just want to sit back and be a fan of fashion for the next few days.  Just like I cheer, shake my fist at the TV and yell when I’m watching sports, I’m the same way when it comes to fashion.  I’m passionate about the things that I love.  When I fall for something, I fall hard and want to be a part of my life every second of the day, almost.

Yesterday, watching all the pics roll in from blogger conferences like IFBCON and LuckyFABB just to name a few of the big ones I’m aware of (if there’s more…please feel free to drop me a line!!) Well, I got extremely excited like I was there participating.  Then, Fashions Night Out pics started to filter through Instagram and Twitter.  Then, pics of the VMA’s red carpet bounced across my screen.  Basically, it was humanly IMPOSSIBLE for me to concentrate on anything other than the pure excitement of one day venturing out to one of these events in the future.  I’ve read many posts about how fun these shindigs are and how tiresome, jet laggy and tedious the details are but as a fan…..I’m in heaven!

Here’s what I’m trying to say before I get all “long-winded” and “run-on sentence’y” yea, I just made that a word.  As the days happen, the pics come in, the models will strut and the photogs will snap.  Then every single person that works in fashion will take a big sigh of relief that the week is finally over.  As all of that is happening, if my little heart goes pitter-patter…it shall be posted.

Now, I feel like this whole post has become a giant run-on sentence lol don’t blame me people…it’s 7am and I was sleep! OH and I’m typing without my glasses lol enjoy your Friday stylish people!

Oooooh la la! Oui Oui!

Last night, after my Dallas Cowboys won, I may have spent entirely too much time in Monsieur Louboutins’ world on Christian Louboutin dot com!  You’ll see how that managed to happen once you click that link haha!
A few….umm several of my faves!
I have a Paypal account…….just in case someone wants to get me an early Christmas gift. LOL! All jokes aside…my big fall “gift to myself” purchase is getting to be a pretty tough decision!

 



Spotted!

Spots on your pants are here to stay!
 
Apparently, early in the year just isn’t enough for us fashion folk.  Noooo, we’ve gotta carry the trend through summer AND fall!  Well, I’m OK with that…as long as I don’t see any of you walking the streets looking like you came out of the jungle!
 
Remember when I posted those stylish looks for fall? Check out Falling For Fall for a refresher. That post featured a pair of fashionable leopard pants in an updated-for-fall style, that I am absolutely in lust with.
 
 
Now THIS is how you wear leopard pants….curves are your ONLY accessory!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I’m not sure who started the spotted pants trend but it has definitely spread like wildfire!  Here are a few celebs that were spotted in spots!

I usually try to stay away from animal prints but I’m definitely going to embrace this trend…it’s too sexy not to!  Here’s the print I’m dying to try…yea I’m going all the way!
 
Bold color, bold print!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If you’re not ready to go all the way with wearing an animal print…..try out something small for starters….a shoe, scarf or any accessories.

Team Spirit

The countdown for football season is officially down to single digits people!

Football?

Yes, FOOTBALL!

Chicks are fans too and I’m a diehard fan for ALL of my favorite teams!

If you’re like me, you like to look good and represent while watching or attending any sporting events.  Well thank goodness for other sports fanatics like Alyssa Milano (LA Dodgers number one fan) she even had her baby shower AT DODGERS STADIUM! Seriously, future hubby…think Atlanta Braves and Turner Field for any big day in our lives!

Anywho, Alyssa Milano aka mom aka wife aka super actress aka gorgeous….just so happens to design sports team clothing for women!  I definitely want to be like her when I grow up!  The line is called “Touch” and hellooooo double bonus…she provides sizes from XS-4XL!!!

BELIEVE IT!!!

Say goodbye to always wearing a “pink” jersey when your team colors are red and blue!  Don’t get me wrong, I love pink, clearly, but sometimes I don’t want to look like a bubblegum drop while shouting obscenities at a ballpark.

This line has been around for a couple of years now and I absolutely love it.  Not only can I find a shirt to fit over the boobies BUT I can buy more than one because they’re priced just right!

Check out Touch by Alyssa Milano at FANDALIA.COM

Almost all of your fave teams and sports are represented!  I chose to do all my hometown teams because, well, I love my city and because every sport and team in Michigan is down with Touch!
