TheRow

The design duo behind "The Row" is none other than the stylish sisters, Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen. Even though this collection was shown by private appointment, the Olsens' didn't disappoint in terms of the design, tailoring, and silhouette.  In each pieces, you can see the influence of each the sisters' individual style. The edgy yet classic look to this Fall/Winter collection is simply breathtaking.

My amazing finds

I've been doing a lot of shopping recently, party for fashion week and partly because I need new clothes for winter.

After I picked up my pass for L'Oreal Fashion Week at the Drake, I came across a vintage shop called 69 Vintage. They had amazing clothes: Soft men's leather jackets, military-style coats, poofy dresses, sparkly clutches and other great finds. I wasn't looking for anything in particular but a bomber fur coat caught my eye and I decided to try it on. Now fur is not a look I normally go for. I think it takes a lot of confidence to pull off an all-fur coat (those jackets with fur trims on the collars don't count.) But this was so soft, warm and in excellent condition so I bought it for a bargain of $70. I haven't worn it yet because I'm a bit worried that people will throw things at me so I'm going to wait until it gets colder. But it's magnificent.




My second amazing find is a Elie Tahari black lace cocktail dress I got at Winners for $200. It's stunning. The top has lace detail with a cream lining so you don't see through it. It has a square neck line. The fabric just below the bust is ruched and then the rest of the dress just sits perfectly on the body. It reminds me a bit of Audrey Hepburn.



There are a ton more clothes I bought but I don't have the time to photograph them all so I will list them:

- Dark wash Silver skinny jeans
- H&M vest
- H&M purple taffeta dress
- H&M men's graphic tee
- H&M studded belt
- H&M purple and black tights
- H&M lace skirt and lace top
-Zara men's Superman tee
- Black Danier leather jacket
- DC Comics Batman tee
- Jones New York men's classic white shirt
- GANT navy blue blazer with crest

And I'm sure there is more but I can't remember. And now I'm done shopping for myself for a long, long time.

The only thing I'm hunting for...is an outfit that looks goooooood

I love Daria and I think she is an amazing model but I just cannot love this editorial. She reminds me of Cruella De Vil on the cover (minus the black and white hair) with her fur coat, weird haircut, dark red lips and strangely even the lingerie (it implies sadism, which Cruella definitely has in spades!)



But what I mostly think of when I look at the photos is Mr. Burns when he wants to kill puppies to make a vest.




Here goes my tribute to "See My Vest" à la Vogue.

Some men hunt for sport,
Others hunt for food,
The only thing I'm hunting for,
Is an outfit that looks good...



See my vest, see my vest, made from real gorilla chest.



Feel this sweater? It's no better than authentic Irish Setter.

See this hat? Twas my cat. My evening wear, vampire bat.



These white slippers are albino African endangered rhino.

Grizzly Bear underwear, Turtles' necks, I've got my share.

Beret of poodle, on my noodle it shall rest



Try my red robin suit, it comes one breast or two, See my vest, see my vest, See my vest.

Like my loafers? Former gophers - It was that or skin my chauffeurs, but a greyhound fur tuxedo would be best

So let's prepare these dogs, (Mrs. Potts: Kill two for matching clogs) See my vest, see my vest,
Oh please, won't you see my vest. I really like the vest!
