Fall's Peep Toe

First, focus your eyes on that heel! The silver spiked stiletto gives this shoe all kinds of attitude. I'm loving the trend of peep toed booties this season. It's a look that's giving the spring/summer look some extra shine. These suede booties are styling with the cut outs at the heel. They are my current crave. Thanks again, Manolo Blahnik, thanks.

Falling into Fashion

Now that I'm finally accepting that summer is over, I'm slowly coming around to the idea of fall. Ugh! It's not really that bad and the trends this season is making fall shape up quite nicely. One of the best things about fall is shopping for new clothes! In my search I came across this cashmere sweater by Autumn. I'm loving the blouson shape. From the sleeves to the fitted waist. It's the perfect go-to sweater to match with jeans or a skirt. Another plus, cashmere feels soooooooooooo good! It's hard not to be happy about the arrival of fall with this sweater against my skin. Bring on the fall and bring on the clothes!

Funky Shoe Alert!

I love, love, love these funky patent leather stunners from Manolo Blahnik! The black patent leather gives off rocker chick edge and attitude. These shoes can't help but demand attention!The red stitching around the vamp of the shoe sass them up even more. Let's not forget the lovely, sexy heel. Argh, I completely blame Sex and the City for my love of Mr. Manolo!

It's all in the DNA

Cosmopolitan, MSNBC and HGTV agree, art is getting personal. The color of your eyes, hair, even your height is all in the DNA. Apparently, the same could be said about your art! Ever wondered what your genetic makeup would look like... on your walls?! DNA 11 is leading the way to let you "make the ultimate personal artistic statement." They have created a unique style of art that allows customers to take part in the process. You can get a print of your kiss, your fingerprint and even your DNA. How do they do what they do? When placing your order, first you choose the style, color, size and frame. Then you'll receive a collection kit after a few days to take your sample (DNA, fingerprint or kiss). Once you send the sample back, the folks at DNA 11 get to work! They promise to destroy your DNA sample after they've used it to create your portrait. Each piece is numbered and comes with a certificate of authenticity. It's off to you within four to six weeks after they've received your sample. Need proof that they're wall-worthy? They've been endorsed by the Museum of Modern Art design stores of New York. Talk about personal statements.

Fashion = Pain?

I've heard that beauty is pain and fashion hurts but these shoes take that idea to a whole other level. Who is wearing these? Really. I need to know. How in the world are you supposed to be able to walk in those? While they may make a statement, I'm just not sure what that statement is.

Who Rocked It?

Great taste knows no genre. Country teen queen Taylor Swift looked nothing short of angelic. She wore this Marchesa gown in white to hit the red carpet for an award show. The Queen of Hip Hop Soul wore the same gown in red hot red to an event. Both ladies did the dress justice but, who rocked it?
