Here are some pictures of the Royal Wedding of Prince William and his Princess Kate Middleton. I’m sure your all sick of hearing about it but this dress is incredible, covered up in this huge dress and still looking effortlessly gorgeous is not easy to do. Literally left breathless!

 

We wont get into the nutcracker outfit of Prince Williams, I’m sure its tradition but that dress makes it all better!

Summer is almost over and if your anything like me then your looking forward to the change!

Fall is coming strong with some cool trends this year but one of my favorites, is the ruffles.

This fall look out for ruffles and I’m not just talking about on your shirts, ruffles are in for your shoes, skirts, bags, jackets- ruffle central! The reason I love the look is because it makes a simple outfit just a little extra interesting. If your a Plain Jain get smaller ruffles- perhaps a small ripple of fabric down the side of a skirt, if your a little trendier try the tiers of ruffles on a top.

Check out some cool ruffle looks below:

Christian Louboutin Pumps

 

Ruffled Tank- Urbanoutfitters.com $38

 

Ruffled Cardigan- Urbanoutfitters.com $48

 

Ruffled ballet flats- bananarepublic.com-$110

 

All these pieces are just an idea of whats out there- now take the ruffles and make them your own!

Xoxo,

FF

If you didn’t catch the MTV Movie awards last night don’t you worry I’m sure it’ll be on re-run for the next month!

Watch out young Hollywood cause last night Sandra Bullock made sure she was looking hot to trot!

Obviously, my favorite dress of the night had to be Sandra’s mini sequins black dress paired with nude Christian Louboutin’s. Delicious!

Can we talk about the back of this dress? The deep V is so tastefully done, nothing short of amazing.

Sequins is hot this year and if you want to pull this look off you have to do it right. The dress stands alone, keep accessoriesto a minimal and don’t forget less is more!

You will survive Sandra especially looking this dazzling!

One of my favorite outfits from SATC2 is the opening scene when Carrie comes out of her building in the Halston Heritage white dress.

 

 

Christian Louboutin- $595

The original dress is a dress by Halston Heritage that will run you about $325.00

Aside from the Dress and the shoes, the accessories include a Chanel Clutch and a Solange Azagury-Partridge necklace.The dress and shoes alone will cost about $920.00.

 

If your feeling sexy in the city but don’t have the cash flow to spend like Carrie, XOXO makes a similar dress and Dolce Vita makes cool gold pumps:

 

XOXO White Dress- Amazon.com- $44.99

 Pumps by Dolce Vita $59-$128 Amazon.com

 

Good luck finding your fashion inspirations!

 Always,

FF

 

What’s fashion talk if there is no mention of the fabulous ladies from Sex and the City? As much as I was dissatisfied with the movie and its circus like fashion. Sarah Jessica Parker never disappoints on the red carpet.

Check out my favorite SJP outfits before opening night of SATC:

Neon Valentino Couture

 Elie Saab Couture

Alexander McQueen

 

Nothing less than amazing!

 

Yea that’s me (dorky glasses) and my friends being total dorks! But its quite alright because dorky is in!

We’ve been seeing celebs like Justin Timberlake & Jay-Z rocking the nerd glasses for some time now and FF totally approves!

I got my pair at Urban Outfitters for $10!! They have tons of pairs to choose from, check the ones that are so FF:

Play dress up make your fashion costume like. When you look good, you feel good- have fun with it!

Isn’t it such a good feeling to find something you weren’t looking for?

This morning shortly after wakening I found myself watching Soul Train, immediately I was inspired by the amount of color in the clothes, the swagger in the dancers is hypnotizing, the amount of amazing fashion in this show is ridiculous. I literally would wear everything these ladies had on, from the high-waist booty shorts, flower print rompers, gold-metallic ruffled dresses, so much sass.

Today, I’m not here to tell you where to shop, but to pay attention to your inspirations, and go for it! You are the artist of your canvas, do what makes you feel good and that kind of attitude is always FF.

Here are some Soul Train shots I’d like to share with you.

Little fashion flash back for some inspiration:
