Get Ready For It. I Came To Win.

2011-01-24T17:02:00.001-08:00

Everyone, regardless of their musical preference, should listen to this song. I've been listening to it all day, and pretty much sums up my feelings at the moment.

It's been a wonderful, crazy, emotional past couple of months for me. I'm purging myself of all those feelings and negativity, and I'm leaving it in the past. Everyone who contributed to those feelings, I'm also leaving in the past. This is my moment.

“I wish today, it would rain all day.

Maybe that would kinda make the pain go away.

Trying to forgive you for abandoning me.

Praying but I think I’m still an Angel away.

I came to win To Fight. To Conquer. To Thrive.

I came to win. To survive. To Prosper. To Rise.

To Fly.”

And that’s the last I’ll ever say about that.

F**king Major.

2010-12-24T22:07:00.001-08:00

When I find something I love, I become obsessed with it. I love hard. It’s just who I am. The interesting part is that this particular aspect of my personality translates to all aspects of my being, including my obsession with style and love of fashion.

I have just recently come across the brand Tateossian and I have to say, some of the items they carry are exactly my style. Like the item pictured above. At $425 and featuring stingray (OBSESSED) detail, this is something that I would absolutely love to own.

Maybe when it goes on sale, perhaps?

Destination – Mazatlan, Mexico

2010-12-23T22:53:00.001-08:00

Could you imagine waking up each morning here? I may be biased, but I truly believe the beaches of Mexico and Central America are among the best in the world. This is definitely on my “must visit” list.

I feel so worldly. It’s a beautiful feeling.

Stephane Pompougnac – Crave You

2010-12-23T22:50:00.001-08:00

Why can’t you want me like the other boys do?

They stare at me, while I stare at you.

Why can’t I keep you safe as my own?

One moment I have you, the next you’re gone.

Behind steps on an empty stage,

That boy’s got my heart in a silver cage.

Why can’t you want me like the other boys do?

They stare at me, while I crave you.

Style Obsession – The PS11

2010-12-23T22:26:00.001-08:00

The PS11 by Proenza Schouler has been on my mind every since seeing it on Mary Kate & Ashley Olson. It’s the perfect size and comes in an array of finishes and colors.

I’m actually just really proud of my guys. I remember back in 20o4 when they were first starting out. They were just so unpretentious, as opposed to the seasoned professionals. I wish them nothing but the best. And that they never lose that aspect of their combined fashion personality.

Keri Hilson – Let Me Down

2010-12-22T15:10:00.001-08:00

Maybe you didn’t really need my lovin’,

Not the way I needed yours.

I was only trying to keep it open,

How you gonna slam the door?

Led me to believe we were together,

You were on a different plan.

Just when things were changing for the better,

You became a different man.

If I was you, I never would have left you in the cold in the first place.

And if I was you, I’d be really trying to make a U-turn on a one-way.

Said you let me down. Yeah you let me, let me, let me, let me down.

I just got my plane ticket to San Francisco for NYE…I am quite excited to go home for a bit. I’m even thinking about booking an additional trip to Los Angeles…

Los Angeles = Love.

I was driving from Bellevue to Seattle last night and I thought to myself…”If I could spit on this shit, I would.”

I think that about sums it up. Hope that doesn’t offend anyone. Take care all.

What I’m Loving Right Now #2: Runaway by Kanye West

2010-11-11T17:18:00.001-08:00

Everyone knows I love Kanye West. From his music to his style, his strengths and his failures, I definitely think he’s someone to pay attention to, especially when he’s at his best. We all make mistakes, he’s no exception. But he’s taken responsibility for his actions and who am I to judge?

I swear I watched this mini-film a good 10x in a row. I think it’s brilliant:

“You’re my devil, You’re my angel.

You’re my heaven, You’re my hell.

You’re my now, You’re my forever.

You’re my freedom, You’re my jail.

You’re my lies, You’re my truth.

You’re my war, You’re my truce.

You’re my questions, You’re my proof.

You’re my stress and You’re my masseuse.

Lost in this plastic life.

Let’s break out of this fake-ass party,

Turn this into a classic night.

If we die in each other’s arms,

Still get laid in the afterlife.”

What I’m Loving Right Now #1: OPI Polish

2010-11-11T17:01:00.001-08:00

So…I’ve been obsessed with Sephora by OPI nail color for the past several months now, so I thought it was time to do an official blog post on them. I usually stick to the classic deep reds and pale pinks, but since being introduced to this line, I wear everything from lavender to jade green. A few of my favorites include A True Romantic, Metrochic (LOVE), Under my Trench Coat, I’m With Brad, Opening Night ( LOVE) and Rumba Romance. You know what? I just love them all…!

2010-09-06T19:20:00.001-07:00

I have always been known as a big city girl – a reputation that I take full ownership of. I love big cities. The more overwhelming, the better. I love the sense of power I get from being surrounded by skyscrapers and high rises. It fuels my belief of anything being possible. Anything is achievable.

Yet the truth is, the beach is what makes my heart race. I love it. I remember being a kid and just running around the beach each Shabbat with my brother. That’s the stuff my dreams are made of.

I’d give anything to be there right now.

Pharrell in Cannes, Cote d'Azure, France. Beautiful as Ever.

I have to apologize, yet again, for my absence. My life has been beautifully intense as of late - so many different projects going on at once. I'm hoping that this hiatus will not be an extended one, and that I can get back to my blogging roots. This is, essentially, what I love to do.

I have to say this, though. Looking at this picture reminds me of where I am going with my life. It's easy to get distracted by those who are in your life, and aren't supposed to be. You can't let anyone distract you from what you are trying to achieve, including yourself. You have to know when to say when. Know when to let go. Know when to take flight.

I Can Feel Your Heartbeat…Running Through Me.

2010-07-11T09:08:00.001-07:00

I saw you talking on the phone,

I know that you are not alone.

But you’re stealing my heart away -

Yeah you’re stealing my heart away.

Maybe it’s the way you move,

You got me dreaming like a fool.

That I could steal your heart away-

I could steal your heart away.

I don’t know where we’re going…

I don’t know who we are…

It feels like we are floating…

Right under the stars…

Roatan, Islas de la Bahia, Honduras

2010-07-11T08:31:00.001-07:00

So, as you all know, I went home to Roatan, Honduras back in June. It was an amazing experience to say the least. The food, the scenery, the people, everything. There were so many highlights…I think one of my favorite memories was West Bay…I love it there! The water is crystal clear and so warm. It feels like bath water! It was crazy! I also loved Sandy Bay – it was so much more quiet and peaceful than where we were staying – and there were so many stars in the sky, which were perfectly visible from there. And then the nightlife in West End was AMAZING! That in and of itself yields so many stories…lol…that I’ll keep to myself. But I think the part that I loved the most, but also presented the biggest challenge, was meeting so many different family members, all at once. So many eyes and so many opinions. So many different people to focus on individually. That was hard. But everyone was warm and friendly, for the most part, and that I can appreciate. Really can’t wait to go back and explore Roa a little deeper. It is, after all, my home.

And speaking of Los Angeles, I am determined to hit Beso, Eva Longoria's restaurant, while I'm there. I love going to posh restaurants; it's actually my favorite thing to in my off time. So yeah, Beso is pretty much a priority. Would be nice to make it a date night.

I have had these pictures saved on my phone because I am INLOVE with Tyra's color here! I think I need to make it happen.

Dasha Zhukova...Back In Top Form

2010-06-24T10:49:00.000-07:00

So it really didn't take Dasha very long to lose the baby weight. Although I don't think women should feel pressured to got back to pre-baby size, I do salute the women who do. That can't be easy, and I will, should I ever decide to have children, be one of those women who take their time losing the baby weight. But she's looking good!

Louis Vuitton Menswear - Spring/Summer 2011

2010-06-24T09:57:00.000-07:00

Not really loving much of what I've seen so far during mens fashion week. D&G, Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry and Vuitton have all shown lackluster collections, in my opinion, based on what I've seen so far. This is dissipointing, because it's no secret that I love menswear much more than womenswear. especially right now. But here are some of the looks that I do like.

In the first look, I'm really loving the jacket. This can be deconstructed from the look above into something a little more downtown, if worn with a pair of, let's say, D & G jeans, or an equivalent.

I really like the trousers on the second look and both the blazers on the third and forth looks. Other than that...I'm good.

So Leticia Casta completely stole the limelight from Rihanna in Te Amo. Admittedly one of my least favorite songs on Rated R, I was pleasantly surprised after viewing the video. It gives new life to the song, which I can definitely appreciate. But what I appreciate even more is Leticia’s cameo. Man, she is so thoroughly French, which makes her so thoroughly chic!

Side note: I am INLOVE with Leticia’s lip color…::off to the MAC counter, lol.

Okay Friends -

2010-05-16T23:42:00.001-07:00

There has been SO MUCH going on in the last several months, but I promise to soon be back in top form. I truly love to blog. I love to write about all the things that I love in my life. My daily inspirations. The things I'm dreaming of. It's my release - So I've been a little wound up as you can imagine. I am still in school, still working fulltime, still chasing that dream. I keep thinking and thinking about my design label - hoping to find some time to put it together. Soon though. I hope you are all living life to the fullest, making the most of each and everyday, appreciating the people you love in your life.

I leave you with this quote, which I am completely stealing off of my friend Mohammed's FB page (he has the BEST quotes!):

"Can miles truly separate you from friends...if you want to be with someone you love, aren't you there already?"

That was for you, doll (B!).

I Love This Entire Look!

Now Playing: Drake – Find Your Love

2010-05-01T17:12:00.001-07:00

I'm more than just an option
Hey, Hey, Hey

Hey, Hey, Hey
And I feel it taking over

I better find your love and
I better find your heart
I better find your love and

I better find your love and
I better find your heart
I bet if I give all my love
Then nothings gonna tear us apart

I’m more than just a number
Hey, Hey, Hey
I doubt you’ll find another
Hey, Hey, Hey
So every single summer
Hey, Hey, Hey
I be the one that you remember

And I better find your lovin
I better find your heart
I better find your love and
I better find your heart
I better find your love and

It’s more than just a mission
Hey, Hey, Hey
You hear but you don’t listen
Hey, Hey, Hey

And get what you been missing

Too many times I’ve been wrong
I guess being right takes too long
I’m done waiting, theres nothing left to do
But give all I have to you and

I better find your love and
I better find your heart
I better find your love and
I bet if I give all my love,
Then nothings gonna tear us apart
I bet if I give all my love,
Then nothings gonna tear us apart

You take Drake, rapper of the moment, and pair him with Kanye West, rapper of the decade, and this is what you get: musical brilliance. This is going to be the album of the summer. I can’t wait!

Clearly, these two know all about that.

So FINALLY I made myself buy “The One” by Dolce & Gabbana, and I have to say, I am very happy. It smells heavenly. Heaven in a bottle. I also bought The Original Juicy Couture and also Burberry London, which smelled amazing in the store, but now I am convinced that it smells more like a cologne than a perfume. I’m going to have to get used to it, I guess.

Seal – The Loneliest Star

Style Profile: Alex Curran

2010-04-17T15:24:00.001-07:00

I absolutely love Alex Curran. I love that she’s so carefree an continues that attitude with her style. Sure she’s rich and care wear any designer she wants…but it’s the elegance and the playfulness she infuses into her looks that has made me fall in love with her. Plus, she and Steven (her husband and famous Liverpool footballer) have a collection of cars that need to be in my garage immediately. (tfs)

Ry and Ri.

2010-04-08T19:12:00.001-07:00

I absolutely love this picture of Ryan and RiRi. The next time I go into Gene Juarez, which should have been yesterday (I am in very bad need of a color and blow out, but more about that in a later post) and tell them to style the front of my hair like Ri’s. I LOVE her bangs. I’m letting mine grow out so I’m not quite sure how this is all going to work out…but anyway, Rihanna is just amazing. Couldn’t you see she and Ry being BFF’s?

Nicole Kidman For Chanel No. 5

2010-03-21T18:16:00.000-07:00

I was watching an interview with Baz Luhrmann when I decided to finally post this video. This is the commercial Nicole Kidman did for Chanel back in 2004/2005, and it still facinates me the same way now that it did then. So completely beautiful.

Jude Law for Martini Russia

2010-03-21T15:47:00.000-07:00

I've never really been a huge Jude Law fan...but he looks good here. Very dapper. Charming. I like.

The Sun Set's On Yet Another Seattle Day

2010-03-20T20:02:00.000-07:00

So I've been thinking a lot lately about what my next move is going to be. I really want to live abroad: London, Prague, Rome or Hong Kong. I was at Purple Cafe & Wine Bar last Friday with two acquaintances, when this subject came up. My friend, who seems to have traveled everywhere, said that London, in his opinion, was the center of the world. I then divulged that I'd been considering the University of London, which, in his opinion, made me uber-cool. I don't think I've ever been that encouraged by someone I am just getting to know. I was pleasantly surprised. Sometimes all you really need is a word of encouragement.

Botox Looks Good On You.

2010-03-17T07:28:00.000-07:00

Her Chanel sunnies are absolutely killer. And so is her eyebrow arch...literally. You know what though, I can't even hate on Kim Kardashian at this point. She is rich and absolutely gorgeous. That's not really a valid reason to not like someone. Keep doing your thing, Kim. Whatever that "thing" may be.

As many of you may know, Architectural/Interior design is a huge inspiration to me. I love it. Whenever I'm designeing clothes, I always incorporate alot of the same elements into my own pieces. I am also one of those people, which I've stated before, who could live in a hotel and be perfectly comfortable. I'm wierd, lol.

Summer Never Looked So Good

2010-03-14T16:26:00.001-07:00

Kourtney Kardashian in Miami. I love this look. I never really thought to pair a jumper with a blazer. It almost seems like an oxymoron. But this, I love. I think I am going to have to recreate this for myself - but I'll use maybe a black velvet blazer with a champaign silk jumper. Throw on some diamond studs, a mid-sized clutch and a pair of YSL tributes (as seen on Kourtney) and you're good to go. Perfect for date night at Purple Cafe or Barrio downtown. (tfs)

Oscar After Party - Jenny Lo

2010-03-09T14:09:00.000-08:00

I love this! This was actually the only thing I liked the entire night. I thought Oscar Fashion in general was super boring this year, although the show itself was pretty good.

I'm going to be honest and say that I haven't really liked anything JLo's worn since her Ben Affleck days. Even during that period you could kind of see the beginning of the end for her fashion wise. In this photo, she's got the hair back, the big earrings in and she's ready to rock.

JLo, we've missed you.

More Cassie. I know this is annoying, lol, but you guys know I love Cassie!

PFW: Lanvin Fall/Winter 10.11

2010-03-06T09:21:00.000-08:00

So this isn't anything new from Alber Elbaz, this is very typically Lanvin. It actually reminds me of his Fall/Winter 2004 collection - the collection that first made me notice him as a designer. As always, we want our designers to push forward and give us something new each time they show, but I actually really like this collection and the ways that he touched on, yet deferred some of his previous collections. I really like the Cleopatra-ish references in the clothing and the styling. It would be interesting to see if he continues with this concept next season...just pushing it farther a bit.

Isabel Marant Fall/Winter 10.11

2010-03-05T19:51:00.000-08:00

If I had to say only one thing about Isabel Marant, it's that she's consistant. I really love what she did this season. Cozy knit tops with ultra skinny trousers. I'm also a big fan of the sequins. I think we are going to see more of that in seasons to come. A few companies touched on the idea last season, J. Crew stands out to me because I almost bought a pair from them, lol, but I think it's a trend in the making.

Cassie Takes In Paris

2010-03-05T07:58:00.000-08:00

Loving PFW! Everyone's stepping their game up!

Lights! Camera! Action!

2010-03-05T07:47:00.000-08:00

I am freaking out! The lights apparently just went down at Dior...and right before that happened she strolled in...looking like this...it doesn't get any more heavenly than Charlize. She's so elegant! Sophisticated! Amazing! There will be more pictures posted of this when I fine them, lol. For right now, this one from twitter will do (vogueparislive).

Man, I'm in love.

I Like It But I Don't.

2010-03-04T16:35:00.000-08:00

I love this color on her but I don't like jumpsuits. I also love the pairing of the nude pumps with the green, and the nude nail color...but I don't like the hair. I usually love flowey fabric...but I'm not really feelin' it here. I give it a 7.5 out of 10.

PFW: Balmain Fall/Winter 10.11

2010-03-04T16:26:00.000-08:00

I'm starting to think Decarnin is a one trick pony. I feel horrible for saying that, but as of right now...that's how I feel. I am so...let down by this collection. I was expecting to be wowed. To be awed. instead I found myself clicking through picture after picture to find something I actually liked. 4 out of 36 looks. That's it. And the last look is REACHING! There's still hope for show season...we still have Vuitton, YSL, McCartney, Lanvin, etc to go. I'm hoping someone pulls through and excites me.

PFW: Gareth Pugh Fall/Winter 10.11

2010-03-04T12:42:00.000-08:00

This is the first collection I've loved thus far (for F/W 10.11). I am so happy PFW has finally kicked off.

Gareth is such an underrated desginer, I feel. I'm finding myself loving any and everthing he creates. In the video I'ves posted from Style.com, Time Blanks describes this collection as edgy and glamorous, which I totally agree with.

My love for this collection is making me wonder if I am moving towards a moodier, darker sense of style. I think this is the direction in general fashion might be moving in...we'll see. I hope not though. The last thing I want to see is everyone dressing in goth.

"Poetically industrial"...I like this.

PFW: Cassie At Gareth Pugh

2010-03-04T08:04:00.000-08:00

I'm really loving this! I really want to do something different for the summer! You know, I really wish Cassie would become more of a fashion personality. She is such an amazing canvas, and can go in so many different directions. I feel like she has so much potential. I hope while she was at the Gareth Pugh show she scored some freebies. She'd look amazing in it.

Charlize Theron! So Chic!

2010-03-03T16:53:00.000-08:00

I am going to copy this look, exactly! I don't ususally do that, but damn it, she's on fire! I am in love, love, love.
