Arctic Monkeys

The song You & I by the Arctic Monkeys inspired this look. I am a huge fan of the 

Arctic Monkeys, I love their cool music style. And Humbug had grown on me,

my all time favorite album. So when their new album released recently, it 

wasn't my favorite. However, that doesn't mean I don't have a favorite 

song, and that's You & I ft. Richard Hawley & The Death Ramps is 

just perfection. It's such a bad ass no mercy kinda song. Love it. So 

when it came to choosing an outfit,I had to include a leather jacket! 

I mean there are motorcycles in the background, why not. For this 

character I pictured her to be fearless and have effortless cool 

style. So a leather jacket, crop button down, platform shoes 

and a killer bag was exactly what I was imagining. Plus this 

outfit would look great with Alex Turner on its side! ;)

Outfit: 

Proenza Schouler cropped button down, Acne leather jacket, Orla Kiely skirt, Lanvin ankle booties,  Brahmin Phoebe bag

Florence + The Machine

The song Spectrum by Florence + The Machine inspired this look. If you know
anything about this song, it's a colorful song. I agree with that but, for some reason
as I was listening to the song and trying to put color to the look (because it should
have color), it did not look right. It was like I was trying too hard or something.
However, gold, cream, andblack looked right. When I picture a character for
this look, she wouldn't dress colorful because her personality would
already be colorful (if that makes any sense). Anyway,the skull
earrings are a cool little touch because as she mentions in the
song "we will never be afraid again." The skull and the
studded shoes represent almost like a bad-ass
attitude but, at the same time this character
would be vulnerable and gentle. That's why I
picked this dress.

This is how I interpreted Spectrum.

Outfit:
Chloe dress, Balmain jacket, Steve Madden shoes, Marchesa clutch, LeiVanKash skull earrings

Youyou by Yougourthen

Yougourthen and I

Today was an overall amazing day! Mostly because I helped my dearest friend, designer Yougourthen, launch his Spring 2012 collection, Youyou by Yougourthen. This is his first ever collection, so he was pretty excited and nervous. When I asked him what was his inspiration for the collection. He looked at me surprised and sweetly said, "I actually don't know, it just came to me." And laughed afterwards. I definitely see him as an original designer (unlike my other favorite designers), since he has a strict policy on not looking at others work. It's quite hilarious because when I ask him about Wang, Wu, and Balmain. He would ask me who they were! He is a completely isolated designer, and I admire that. He doesn't want to follow trends yet, until he is required to. Please look at the rest of his work. It will be posted on this Wednesday and Thursday. It's impressive for a fourteen year old. 

Did I mention he was fourteen?

The XX

I'm back! Damn I missed creating outfits. I finally found some free time to make something.
Moving on. The song Angels by The XX is my current obsession. It's a little different
from their older pieces but, I'm loving it! I find it to be more romantic & enchanting,
that's why I picked this floral blazer and the bag to be pink. If I have chosen
one of their older songs like Stars the whole color scheme would have
been black and white. However, I added black oxfords and
black accessories because to me they will always be the
color black. That's how I will always picture them.
Their songs might be a little different but,
they haven't changed.

Outfit:
Topshop blazer, Haider Ackermann oxfords, Chloe bag, Kate Spade earrings, Bobbi Brown nail polish

Overload

Okay I'm probably the worst blogger in the world. I haven't written anything for more than a month. But! I have my reasons. I tend to neglect things after a period of time; however, I'm not letting that happen to this blog. Oh no. Not an option. I like writing. I know I'm not the best writer like Scott Fitzgerald, Steven King, or Hemingway. So what. Here's an update, for those who need to know. After my fabulous experience at Vassar college, I did plan the next day to write about the events that took place. But, I was exhausted and I had class to attend the same day. It doesn't end there. I had work to go to since I missed two weeks. There was many things to catch up on and fix.

I wish it ended there, but of course it did not. On top of Spanish class and work, I had to do homework for when I return to school in September. As you can see I'm busy, a little sleep deprived ... and secretly I kind of love it. It means I'm actually being productive. I like being productive. 

Anyway, I have many things to show and tell. 

Such as, on Sunday there is going 

to be a photo shoot at my 

job, so I'll definitely post

those  pictures up.
