Fashionably Fluent

Everyone knows Christian Siriano from Project Runway and we’ve all grown to love the man’s less than oridinary designs. Last year he collaborated with Payless and helped designed shoes and bags that would go on sale a few weeks after fashion week.

Christian Siriano and Payless have yet again collaborated and have designed what looks like an imitation of the 10 inch monster shoes created by Alexander Mcqueen. The shoes were shared with the world on his runway show during Fashion week, this week.  Behold the 2010 Spring/Summer Collection for Payless by Christian Siriano.

This just being a peek into the collection, I’m excited to see more! After last years runway show Payless definitely toned down the collection before letting it hit the market. Lets see what they do with these little creations this year.

Look out for the collection to hit Payless in a few weeks. If your still feeling the Lady Gaga inspiration heres your chance to do it for $79.99.

Always down to pay less,

I’ve been meaning to write a post about the crazy ass shoes we have all seen Lady Gaga wear. I’m not writing this post to tell ya’ll to get yourself a pair of 10 inch heels but to let you know that I’m inspired to chunkify my shoes or just get a pair of really funky, tall heels.

The shoes that I’m talking about are by designer Alexander Mcqueen, who stunned the fashion world in Paris, after his runway models strutted their stuff  in 10-12 inch heels!

And of course none other than the queen of fashion statement herself, Lady Gaga, had no problem showing them off in videos like Bad Romance.

Please be aware that adding 10 inches to your soles is dangerous and you may not look too hot falling down a flight of stairs. I hope I’ve inspired you to add a few extra inches, after all that is the purpose.

Good luck shoe whores lovers!

I am big on sunglasses, and as much as I am big on bargain shopping, sunglasses are always an exception. A good pair of sunglasses are a must. I have gotten a lot better at keeping cost down as you must know, my first pair of  designer sunglasses were a pair of Christian Dior’s that cost me about $400! After getting those stolen, I think twice about spending the money…Ouch!

I toned it down to about $100 a pair, after all, sunglasses are easily lost or in my case stolen! I was shopping with one of my favorite boys, whose a total sunglasses fanatic, and we made a  stop at Solstice, since he  was ranting about these Carrera Sunglasses he had to have. I learned this, the price tag is  reasonable averaging about $120 a pair and they are really a cool pair of sunglasses!

Not only were they a hit in 2009 with celebrities like Lady Gaga really giving the sunglasses the spot light, their 2010 collection are just as amazing!

More Celebrities in Carrera’s:

Alicia Keys

Britney Spears

Brad Pitt

Kanye West (Mr. West is a huge fan, he’s been spotted in so many different pairs)

The collection is 80’s inspired for those of us into vintage style, I know I will be jumping on the Carrera craze bandwagon, they are an absolute must!

Get your pair at your local Sunglasses Boutique or check them out at Solstice.com

Happy Shopping!

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.

Don’t get me wrong I wont be showing up to dinner with a bow made of hair but I am definitely inspired to wear black, leather, big sunglasses and chunky shoes.

Check out some looks that yell woman empowerment!

Leather pants and over the knee boots are a killer look

All black attire with a hint of pink is just dashing!

 Ladies, let your inner Lady Gaga out and I promise this, promise this, in this look you’ll look marvelous!

Fashionably yours,
