My opinion of KAT VON D


Let me say that I go back and forth on whether or not I actually consider myself a "fan" of hers. I watched L.A. Ink when it started, and by the second season, I was over it. I guess you can say I am a "fan", UNTIL she opens her mouth. She seems like she's sweet, but at the same time she's extremely annoying. I basically just like looking at her.

Despite the fact that her fashion sense isn't that fantastic, she is very original. Unfortunately she rarely strays from her typical leggings, shredded t-shirts, bikini tops, and platforms. On occasion I have seen photos of her out and about and she actually really looks cute. The one thing I WILL say for her is her hair and make-up is ALWAYS flawless! She's a gorgeous woman and even though she wears a ton of makeup, I think she still looks great. Soooooo many girls out there love her and emulate her and personally I don't think that's a bad thing (if you aren't quite sure what your own identity is yet). I have compiled some of my favorite photos of her. Just by looking at them you will be able to tell what it is that made me post these photos (if not, dummy, email me and I'll tell you).
ALL fantastic photos! I prefer her with black hair, but I saw some photos of her with blonde, and she actually looked really cute! Here is one of them.


Finally...here is one last photo I had to share with you. All I can say is WHAT THE FUCK??!!!??!!! How...When...What did she do to make herself look like Jocelyn "The Cat Lady" Wildenstein's twin??? This HORRIFIED me! Is she getting too skinny (she has lost soooo much weight), is it the crazy mane, or did she get something done to her eyes (Lord let it just be the make-up)? You judge and let me know what you think.

BUSH?

Im posting again...because Im trying to catch up a little.

So I came across this product and I thought it was BRILLIANT! It's called Betty Beauty http://www.bettybeauty.com/ and it's hair dye for your pubic hair! They also offer a waxing kit with cute little stencils. Now many of you probably think, "Who has hair down there to dye?". I personally keep it pretty neat and clean, but a completely bald kitty just seems so 10 year old little girl to me. A bit of a bush makes me feel more like a woman. Now a hot pink heart shaped bush...I LOVE IT!!!!
Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

Happy Holiday's!!!

I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas (and Hanukkah)! I was out of town and had a great time with my boyfriend's family. I got so many cute things...I will soon post some of my gifts for you to see.

When I got back into town, it was my cousins 21st birthday, so a bunch of us went out. This is what I saw at like 11pm on a Saturday!I HAD to take a photo for you guys to see.

Not only a fashion don't, but truely so not classy!

Here's a pic of me from that night...I soooo love my new faux fur! YAY!!!

Do's & Don'ts on a Ventura Weekend

I've mentioned before, Ventura is a rather relaxed town, NOT fashion driven what-so-ever! It's unbelievably easy to find "fashion don'ts" and very difficult to find "fashion do's". I've been carrying my camera around at night thinking that would be the best time to find people who may have put a little more effort into what they were wearing, boy was I wrong!


We'll start with the DON'TS...

Apparently this gal loves to skateboard and is tomboy-ish. I DON'T GIVE A SHIT! This outfit is fine for skateboarding (I guess), but put a little effort into going out. Unless she's a lesbian, that look is NOT attracting any male eyes!



First off, now days there are soooo many fashion lines that offer great options for plus size girls, there is NO excuse for this! The top could work, if the jeans were a different wash and actually FIT! Everyone knows that showing off your ass crack in public has NEVER been attractive no matter what size you are...it's just disgustingly tacky! Finally...I know it was cold out, but if you can go out and be fine with a top like that, you would be fine in a cute pair of heels or even flats. Don't go out and try to pick up dudes in your god damned slippers!!!!


This skirt looks like the ugliest brown drapes one could find. This doesn't look good on windows, it sure as hell doesn't look good as a skirt! BURN IT...keep the bag.




Lets just run this down...a grass green/ cropped/ terry cloth/ zip up sweatshirt, a floor length/ grass green floral print/elastic waist skirt, some kind of brown plaid Vans, and a Louis Vuitton (?) bag. This is so hideous, even for Ventura...she HAD TO be from out of town. A Ventura girl would have had on a denim skirt and Uggs. LAUGH OUT LOUD!!




Nicole Richie? Not even close! The Bohemian look is fine, but this is a bit over the top. That bag is almost as big as her! This whole outfit needs to be re-evaluated. I still hate those little headbands...they never work on anyone! If you own some, or even one...throw them away. You look like a dork when you wear them!


Now let's see some Do's...


You can tell this cute gal put some thought into her outfit. Unfortunately I didn't get a better angle to show off her jacket. I love her look and I think her hair is super effing cute! I would wear this outfit! Good job sweetheart!



Kind of a blurry photo, I apologize! This look is very Bohemian Thrift Sheik. I especially love the over sized cardigan and the black tights underneath. Although it isn't my personal style, I think she looks adorable!!!


This is Kirstin, I should have gotten a full length shot because her jeans (I have the same pair) and heels were really cute. The crochet hat is everywhere right now, but I love the red contrast with her mustard colored bag. Five stars and a wink!



This was at the end of the night, I think my gal is a little tipsy, but the outfit still looks major! What caught my eye from the usual leggings and long shirt was the jacket and shoes she chose. The cropped jacket works really well with her shape and the unusual color is a plus! I don't think I would have chose strappy heels to wear, but that's why I style watch, there's always something new to learn from others. I love the shoes and the fact that they are a few shades darker than the jacket. Well done!



I took this photo and my boyfriend said, "I thought your blog was for girls?" Sure is! (wink) Right, occasionally one runs into a guy that just plain looks good! I'm not one for guys that are super fashionable/label whore/metrosexuals as I am for guys who have their own look and do it well. I love the shirt, the red really makes his tattoos pop! The hair and facial hair are just messy enough to look sexy. Five stars and 3 winks! The PBR works with the outfit too. LOL!

Sotheby's Holiday Party - Fashion DO!

Last night was our office party (at Tomer's gorgeously decorated home in Calabasas) and it was a BLAST! I love all of the people I work with and work for...be jealous!
So...I took a photo of someone at the party that was a DEFINITE fashion DON'T, and that was going to be my "day after" blog. It's the holidays and despite my honest nature, I figured it would be MUCH better to show off alllll the "fashion DO's" in the office. Unfortunately I don't have pics of every one of them, but this will give you an idea of what fashionable people I work with...and some are exceptional fashionistas!

* exceptional fashionistas: Patte & Dana

ZAC POSEN: Pre-Fall 2010

Now that we know that Pre-Fall 2010 ISN'T too far ahead to look, I have brought some gorgeous Zac Posen for you to drool over, and hopefully inspire you. Keep in mind, if you see anything that I post, you totally won't be a nerd if you want to print it and take it with you to assist when you're shopping. I find visual aids are thee best when it comes to putting together a MAJOR outfit!

Back to Zac...this line has been described as Lewis Carroll meets Paloma Picasso. With the Alice In Wonderland-esque prints and the 70's style silhouettes, I think it's innovative and definitely creative. You may have to use a little extra imagination if you'd like to recreate one of these looks, OR you can max out the Visa and just pick one up. YAY!!!



















*not too excited about the shoes though.
