I love shoes. I love Art.

I love when they make a perfect combination.

Picture Perfect

I heart this chick. And as much as I love her new album, I wouldn't mind at all if she left the music industry and moved in a different direction. Hey, she gives more fashion than anything. Anywhoo, here are my fav looks from her W mag photo shoot which she graces the cover of next month.

 Showing some Monday Love. Enjoy =))

**Don't know the male model (the one in most of her shots) but he's givin' me too too much.... ::side eye::

StyleFile: Ms. Berry

I think its safe to say everyone is impatiently waiting on spring/summer. And after looking at celeb pics from their holiday vacays, I'm in despreate need of one myself. But as spring SLOWLY approaches, I'm looking to add some playful yet understated pieces to my wardrobe. Constantly captured in candids is Halle Berry's casual style. I like her ability to put together chic & effortless fits. Armed with a pair of heels or statement handbag, she can transfrom any fit from relaxed to sexy.

                                *sighs* How I wish we could fast forward through the next few months.....

Wrap it up.

Ask any of us New Yorkers and we'll tell u its Burrrrr as fuck outside ride now. It seems as though no amount of outerwear can brace us from this bitter cold. Personally I'm more of a coat & gloves kinda girl but this season I've taken a liking to chunky knit scarves. Aside from the versatility in how it can be worn, I like the fact that its a statement piece, bringing life to an otherwise dull fit.

                                                    

                                                     

Been some time since I last posted. Please excuse, my mind has been elsewhere.

All I want

for Christmas (if by some lucky chance I find myself free of bills and responsibilities) are those lust-worthy items below! Excuse me but, I'm currently having a black moment  :P. However, I CAN live without which is why I have no wishlist for the holidays except that I and those around me make it through another year. I rather spend my time with & $$ on my loved ones which I'm very lucky to have =)). I'm much more of a giver than taker anyways (even tho I'm finding more things for myself than others while Xmas shopping =/).

Heads Will Roll...

I've been backed up with school work ALLLLLL week (writing this term paper with a serious case of writer's block & dealing with an incompetent professor who can't even conduct an online course properly smh). And its a shame I'm this stressed because, I'm taking alot less classes this semester than last. Thank God finals week is here!


For all my shoe junkies, I figured I'd share my lastest shoe purchase. For some reason I used to hate ALDO (during my kicks/flats era) but now I absolutely love them. I've yet to wear these but I broke them in walkin around the bf's apt and honestly, they're not as painful as they look :P. Of course walking around in the house vs. on pavement feels totally different. Here's a vid, since I keep forgetting to charge my camera.... Don't know where my minds been lately. Anywhoo Enjoy =)).


Rosemore Platform Pumps, ALDO.

Burrr!

I HATE snow. I don't care what it represents (Christmas, days off from school, etc), I hate it! All it means to me is shoveling my driveway every other day & freezing my butt off no matter how much I bundle up =(( The only upside is looking cute doing it all (if thats really a plus at all). So as the first snowfall in NY begins, so does my search for the perfect winter wool coat. Here are my favs for the season. A few are outta my range but a chick can dream....Right?? ::crosses fingers on the Burberry::

  1) Karen Miller Graphic Stripe Coat  2) Asos Bow Back Coat  3) Burberry Multi-tier Coat  4) Mackage Tessy Coat

The French fashion designer has collaborated with H&M for a lingerie collection which includes silk, satin, and velvet pieces, creating a more lavish look for H&M lounge wear. The collection will hit H&M stores worldwide on December 5, 2009.




In other news: Feeling wasted. And I don't mean drunk. I did absolutely NOTHING today. The slow of productivity on my off days (from school and work) is unbecoming of me. There's something about not using each day to my full advantage that irks the hell out of me.....::shuts down laptop...searches for stimulation:::
