SNUGGIE vs. PHROBIE
OHHHHH SHIT… SNUGGIE’S GOT A COUSIN….
“Because it’s stylish, you can also wear it out to many occasions such as dance parties, sporting events, boating excursions, evening bbqs, music festivals, camping, beaches at night, first dates, bar hopping, walking to class on college campuses, dropping your kids off to school, rooftop gatherings, you name it!”
SOOOOO CREEEPPY!!!! Just as creepy as the snuggie commercials….
TRON-DIDAS…
ELastolite by Oryon Technologies – - -
With all the hype on Tron the movie coming out, there have been a plethora of gadgets, accessories, clothing, and now shoes involved with the franchise… Check these Adidas sneaks out:
Disney synced up with Adidas and Oryon Tech to bring you a pair of Tron-inspired Adidas kicks that glow (some Ts included as well). What’s interesting about these shoes is that they use a patented EL technology Elastolite that is directly printed on textiles themselves. It lasts about 25 wash cycles which is pretty darn cool. The current available colors appear to Green, Blue-Green, Blue & Orange.
GOLD IS THE NEW BLACK!
Grubby gold is one of the essential shades to pull off a Glam Rock outfit. Therefore ladies… definitely include it into the list of color alternatives when it comes of selecting the body-conscious dresses, pants as well as stylish tops. This tone would perfectly match the rugged and at the same time dazzling aura of a similar apparel. GOLD is the new black ya’ll… at least it is for the month of December!
This color would for sure attract attention, therefore there’s no need to have headaches about the additional accessories. The glitz quality of any tops and dresses would speak for your outfit without stuffing your appearance with other details. If you HAVE to add accessories, cause you’re an accessory junkie… choose a tint of an earthly vibe like wooden cuffs, rings and earrings as the contrast between metallic and wood would have a great effect. GRUBBY GOLD YA’LL…. GRUBBY GOLD!!!
OH! and F@#K the Blackberry… it’s all about this….
ha! ♥ ♥ ♥
CHAIN ME UP!
Cornelia Web is bad ass! I’m in love with her chain accessories. I am game for getting chained up…. like DISS MISS…
When I saw this piece, it looked waaay to familiar. Miss Tree posted a similar style of accessory a while back, and I knew that I had seen it before….Who do you think copied who?
Either way, I think these chain accessories are beautifully executed with the integration of chains to edge up any femme outfit. Me Likey!!! ♥
Go ahead and get dressed in chains…. I’d definitely wear it with my F.A.F. crew tee…..♥
HOW TO SELL SUITS…

I’M LANVIN THIS….
I’m not much of an H&M fan, but damn, they are steppin up by hookin’ up with Lanvin… I hear back a few months ago that Lanvin and H&M were collaborating, and now that i’ve seen this sneak peak video… holy cow…. it just makes me want to dress up in frilly cocktail dresses and heels every single day… even if it’s just sitting at my desk doin’ work…
Get the sneak peek….
H&M has done collaborations with a variety of designers over the past several years, tapping everyone from Karl Lagerfeld to Stella McCartney and even Madonna. Given the deluge of fashion designers working with brands like Target, H&M and TopShop, some fashion fatigue has set in but it seems like people are very enthused about the Lanvin line, which looks like it won’t disappoint.
AVANT GARDE GRANNY
Raphaëlle Hlimi‘s eyewear is a covetable collection of avant-garde and granny chic. Hlimi, who earned her stripes interning at such labels as Christian Dior and Emilio Pucci, knows how to craft a pair of eye candy.
Pastel yarn, gold chains and multi-colored baubles decorate the frames of each pair, some fully going g-ma and some verging on a more geek-chic look.
The colors on these remain subtle, letting the layered beads and wrap-around yarn take the spotlight.
The perfect accessory to add a subtle quirkiness to any plain Jane outfit!
The structured ready to wear designs featured in the photos can also be found as full collections at Raphaëlle Hlimi.

HELLA MUST HAVE
LAGERFELD GOES GILLIGAN
Karl Lagerfeld is designing an island for the Sin City of the Middle East.
“The legendary Chanel designer has teamed up with prestigious Miami-based architecture firm Oppenheim and the KOR hotel group to create the manmade island situated 20 km off the coast of Dubai.” -Vogue UK.
Even through the economic turmoil, the super-luxe must really need more exclusive, isolated places for their massive spending and lavish grandeur. Isla Moda is to be the world’s first-ever “fashion island.” By 2014, it will be up and running, equipped with luxury boutiques, three highest-end hotels, and 150 villas.
A slideshow of Isla Moda’s fancy renderings was posted on NYmag.
The captions were on point so I didn’t change a thing.
Isla Moda is a magical land, where grass grows indoors, waterfalls spill from nowhere into rivers that disappear into black holes, and, most important, the roofs look like disco balls.
The futuristic buildings resemble modern shelving. Perfect for storing spendy residents, while allowing them ample sunlight for tanning that never has to stop.
You know a place is fancy when the peacocks are albino.
And the scene out of Inception looks like the beginning of a fun night at the club (models! bottles! BOATS!), instead of your mind’s innermost fears eating themselves.
Shoppers apparently can enjoy malls where everything is gold-plated and runway models pop out of bright corners at random.
The lighting is designed to make sure everyone always looks their best — you know, as though you’re underwater all the time.
Residents will wear an obscene number of all-white outfits, and travel by James Bond’s future speedboat.
The Others can view the fabulous sea dwellings from shore. And wonder how all that glass and all those canals will fare in a natural disaster.
Basically, it looks like a floating fish tank.
Or a computer chip! The future of living — for, like, five people — is here.
