Lily Allen for Chanel?

Is this a joke? Don't get me wrong.. I have nothing against Lily Allen. But I just would expect the new face of Chanel to be someone with a little more...what's the word...class?

Summer Plaid

blouse- thrifted, jean shorts- target, woven yellow flats- urban, wooden bracelets- thrifted

I am eating chips and salsa..making it a meal...thinking about how I don't want to start my homework. This plaid top was a great find at a thrift store for $1. I know..I couldn't believe it either! I love great (and cheap) finds! I'm looking forward to my next thrifting adventure. I want to find some '60 print dresses. I've decided I need to stray away from the solid color scheme.. especially during summer!

Challenge: Crop Top

I really want to start experimenting and playing around with crop tops. I don't think I've worn a midriff bearing top since high school..and for a good reason! I like the ones more recently shown because they aren't skin tight (like those ones from Abercrombie). They're looser and I think they look great with pants or body con skirts. Here are some pictures that have inspired me to incorporate the crop top. I'll post pictures soon with my own :)

The lovely Liz from Late Afternoon
similar from Urban
I like the asymmetrical cut.

Krystal from This Time Tomorrow incorporates both the color and shape of the ones above.

Sigh we'll see how I do...

Rag and Bone Resort 2010

I like the layering, gray and blues, rough details and tights. I want some of these pieces for fall!

H&M Fall 2009 Ad Campaign ft. Sasha Pivovarova

How adorable is she? This is the first look at the H&M Fall '09 Ad Campaign. Can't wait to see more!

Studded Ballet Slippers

I still love these studded ballet slippers from Bona Drag. I could probably make them if I have time, considering I have actual slippers in pink. Whether I'll get down to buy the studs is questionable. Still for $48 it's not bad.

Chanel Fall 2009 Couture

No one does couture quite like Chanel. I love the eighties inspired lace (gloves and tights) as well as the bodycon shirts with fuller skirt over. Several at the beginning definitely remind me of mermaids with the sheer tops, metallic colors and flowing trains.
