Sparkle me Sandra

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!

White Dress in the City

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,

The Fab SJP

 

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!

 

Spring into Color

I am a huge believer that your nail color as wells your clothing colors must go with the season. This time of year is always hard to figure out what colors to put on your nails since its kinda spring-ish but not really. I found a bunch of cool nail colors that are FF approved and obviously hot celebrities rocking a trend is an indicator that the colors are somewhat appropriate : P

 Here are some colors for the inbetween season:

Neutral grayish/lavender

GunMetal/ Metallic

Russian Navy

Hot Pink (My Favorite)

 

Nude

Clear Coat

If all else fails, keep it simple, as long as your nails are filed and clean this is always a good look anytime of year!

 

Xoxo,

Dee

 

 

 

Can you hold these for me?

I just wanted to take a moment and show you this ridiculous dress. I don’t care if you’re a hot 90210 star, AnnaLynn McCord, this dress is just stupid!

Ladies, don’t try this at home!

Walk, Walk Fashion Baby!

Walk, walk fashion baby
Work it
Move that bitch crazy

I haven’t met one person that is not a fan of the very extraordinary Lady Gaga. She always seems to catch our attention with her over the top sense of style. Obviously, the wardrobe of Lady Gaga is not one that women are rushing to mimic but she is sending a message of women empowerment that I’m really digging! There is nothing wrong with pink cardigans and flower dresses but if your tired of the conventional pleasantville look, look to Lady Gaga for some inspiration

The new sexy look that Lady Gaga is bringing to the table is one of power, edginess, roughness and rock glam.

 There is nothing wrong with keeping things a la natural with nude lipstick or lip gloss, but if you want to brighten up your face and make a statement go for fierce RED lips!

On any given day I am lipstick-less, but lately I’ve turned up the glam and pucker up to my new lip-color from Bare Escentuals, Red Zin. I am very picky when it comes to lipstick BUT this lipstick just feels and looks so natural.  If your in the market for red lipstick this one will not disappoint.

(I had to post this picture!)

If you are a true trend setter, Not 25 pounds, a stretched belly, or  a waddle will stop you from keeping up with the latest trends…

This post is for my preggers who are saying “Hey! what about me? I can be fashionable!”… Water retained feet will not stop a real fashionista from strutting her stuff in heels.

My advise to you is  grab a pair of maternity jeans but,  you don’t have to shop at maternity stores for your latest fashion spend (maternity stores are usually more expensive)… Go to your favorite store, grab a size or two up from your true size, and you should be good to go!

Nicole Richie is the essence of being fashionable with a belly… Check out her outfit below:

Reese Witherspoon

I remember the days when getting on an airplane meant dressing in sweat pants and a t-shirt cause one had to be “comfortable”. Since when has being “comfortable” meant dressing like a slob?!?!?

I found this picture of Reese Witherspoon about to catch a plane and she looks great! There is no reason to lose your sense of fashion for comfort. The moral of the story… You can be fashionable, comfortable and still look great…

Anyone catching a plane or just simply a Reese fan check out the outfit below:
