Shoe of the Day: Rachel Roy

My favorite time of the year is a few weeks away. As I ready my closet for the Fall, I am feverishly looking for my new favorite Fall boot. Rachel Roy recently released new shoes for Fall and she had a few misses. But on the bright side, this here boot is Java Fierce approved. This quilted leather material is very Chanel like  and the two tones look adds dept and diversity. This can be rocked with an all ivory sweater dress with tights or, all black with some riding pants and a ribbed or cashmere turtleneck. Its a very weekend in woods with the boo type shoe. Still gives you some height but still bearable to make it through the day.

Fall Trend: The Cropped pant by Derek Lam

Fall is a time that we typically cover up more than we show. With this trend, this leaves a little more exposed, your ankles at least. When Derek Lam revealed their Fall collection earlier this year, one constant that was hard to miss was the cropped pant. It is one look that I am particularly fond of even though I'm petite and looks that chop us short girls up, are usually frowned upon. I'm willing to go against the grain on this one and just top this look with a nice 6 incher. Derek Lam has this look in a variety of materials from tweed, leather and wool. This look is paired best with a silk, button up blouse with layers and layers of necklaces and good, structured bag. Make sure that when duplicating this look, make sure the pants are wide, loose fit. That way, you can be comfortable and FAB! Yess!

If I had One Wish...ok Two...


Fashion websites and magazines to me, are the equivalent to a kid in the candy store. So being that my birthday is coming up...well its actually in two month but hey, I'm already doing a little browsing. My gay husband, Michael Kors has always wow'd me with his timepieces. There are these two stunning, rose gold, glitzing beauties. They both stands out amongst the others but if I could have them all, I mos def would. So whomever is listening with an big open heart, I just made it easy for ya! Like I said, If I had one wish....sigh....*throws confetti* LOL

So this HAS to be the most major come up for this eccentric Bad Boy artist. Following behind other mainstream artist, Janelle Monae is the new face for Cover Girl. This is such a step in the right direction and will definitely widen her fan base. Congrats to her!
