Louis Love

 

I'm trapped inside today because of the rain but I've been enjoying online shopping for some cozy fall items.  I love Louis Vuitton for obvious reasons but I have been lusting over their scarves for the past few months, especially the limited edition ones as seen on Rihanna and Kate.  Need it.

Leopard Scarf as seen on Kate available at eluxury.com for $725

Britney's Back

Words cannot express how excited I am for B. Spears to open the VMAs tomorrow night... I mean nothing can be as bad as her performance last year in Vegas so I only have high hopes for her.  MSN posted a "secret" video of Brit practicing a dance to a new song, perhaps for tomorrow night?  Check out the video here.

Old Faithful: Lolita Lempicka

Lolita Lempicka is one of my all time favorite perfumes (and quite possibly my absolute favorite).  I've gone through two bottles now and I'm sure I will buy another when this one runs out.  It reminds me of vanilla and baby powder mixed with a scent that I can't describe but it takes me back to tenth grade every time I put it on (which is a good thing).  

Available at Sephora; $42 for 1 oz, $63 for 1.7 oz, $84 for 3.3 oz

Gorgeous Gown

 

This beautiful Atelier Versace gown that Anne Hathaway wore to a recent premiere deserves a post of its own.  Its so dramatic and just screams "look at me" which I absolutely love.  Gorgeous.

Hot Mama

J. Lo looks beautiful on the new cover of Elle.  The new mommy to two graces the pages of the October issue of the magazine posing and wearing the gowns of designers like Diane Von Furstenberg, Marchesa's Georgina Chapman, and Chanel's Karl Lagerfeld.  I'm looking forward to reading a copy of this in Madison Square Park with a Shake Shack black and white milkshake later this week :)

Celeb Style of the Day: Keira Knightley

Thank goodness once again for the magical work of Rachel Zoe.  Her client, Keira Knightley, always has the most whimsical, fairy tale like gowns on the red carpet and both her figure and attitude make the most of them.  She often wears one of a kind designs which just further ensure that she will stand out among the rest.

  

  

90210 version 2.0

So just finished watching the new 90210...I think I'll have to watch a few more times to see if I become a hardcore fan but I'm pretty addicted so far (although nothing will compare to the original).  My favorite new character was Naomi and obviously I love Kelly Taylor.  I'm dying to know who her baby's daddy is (my vote is for Dylan)?

Shake Ya Tail Feather

I just got a super fun top at Bergdorf Goodman's this past Friday.  It's Elizabeth and James (my fav) and it's from their Fall collection which has a theme of subtle plaid, feathers, and sleek shapes.  I'm so excited to wear this out and I alreay have two outfits in mind for it: 1. With skinny jeans and my tan CL's and 2. Worn as a tunic with black tights and my black patent CL's

Elizabeth and James Feather Vintage Tank $225 and Emmeline Top $363 available at Bergdorf's and RevolveClothing.com

  

 

My Lipgloss is Poppin'

I have obsessive compulsive tendencies when it comes to buying lipgloss it's ridiculous.  I almost always have 15 glosses in my purse and I rarely ever finish one.  My favorite brand of gloss to buy is Chanel's Glossimer because of their perfect consistency and vast range of shades.  Here is part of my collection (from left to right): Myriade, Pink Ribbons, Waterlily, Glow, Coral Reef, Seashell and Iris.

Chanel Glossimer Lipglosses available at Saks for $26

Tribute to YSL

  

I have been obsessed with the YSL tribute sandals for some time now and when I saw LC wearing a winterized suede and gold version my love was reaffirmed.  I think the the structure of this shoe makes it worth the price because they are neutral yet unique.  Baker's has a knock off but I think the YSL tributes are worth saving up for the real thing.

Available on YSL's website for $760

  

Good Gossip

So just watched the premiere of season 2 of Gossip Girl.  While I didn't think the story lines were anything original I did love a lot of the wardrobe choices.  My favorite look was Serena's Oscar de la Renta gown which she wore to the white party accessorized with diamonds in her hair.  Hopefully the fashion stays up to par for the rest of the season!

Celeb Style of the Day: Kate Bosworth

Kate Bosworth has superman style and looks.  She always manages to wow on the red carpet and a lot of it has to do with her always perfect hair and simple makeup which allows the clothes to take main focus (along with Bosworth's beauty).  My favorite look is  the Calvin Klein long sleeved mini that she wore to the "Superman" premiere...stunning.

         

Vintage Pucci

 

 

I must own a vintage Pucci piece at some point in life.  Seeing pics of Nicole, Victoria and Mary Kate in one of their many Pucci pieces makes acquiring one even more of a priority.  I love Mary Kate's floral patterned dress because its more of an understated print for Pucci and not so obvious.  Until the time comes that I can find and afford the perfect Pucci frock, I'll have to settle for my Pucci flats and scarf.

   

Hair Secrets: Kerastase

 

 

To keep my color fresh after a visit at Neil George Salon  I almost exclusively use Kerastase hair products (sometimes I alternate with Davines).  I try not to shampoo too often but when I do I switch off between the Bain Chroma Riche which is for dry, highlighted hair and Bain Satin #2 or #3 for moisture. 

 

 

For conditioner I use Lait Vital for everyday and then use the Chroma Riche hair mask about once a week to keep my hair in tip top shape.  I also really adore Davine's Love conditioner because of its yummy grapefruit scent.

 

Before every blow-dry I put the Ciment Thermique and Oleo Relax throughout the ends of my hair for heat styling protection and shine.  I'm also hearing great things about a new product that used to only be available overseas called Noctogenist which comes in a serum or cream and is used as an overnight repair product.

Kerastase can be purchased at some of my favorite salons: Neil George Salon in Beverly Hills, Osgood O'Neil Salon in Dallas and Butterfly Salon in New York.

Favorite Flowers: Peonies

I'll admit that I took a floriculture class for 2 years in elementary school (shout out to my teacher Ms. Valentine) and came away with a love for all things floral.  My absolute favorite flowers are peonies especially in shades of pink.  I think that they are so exquisite because of the fact that they are delicate and lady-like.

Baby Love

Harlow Winter Kate Madden is one of the luckiest girls in the world.  Why you might ask? Because Nicole Richie is her mommy which means that she is gonna have access to one heck of a wardrobe and with Joel Madden as her dad she'll get to go to just about any concert she wants.  So obsessed I'd babysit for free.
