Fierce Fame

"Some women choose to follow men and some women choose to follow their dreams..If you're wondering which way to go, remember your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn't love you anymore" ---> Lady Gaga [April 2010 Cosmo]

Elle

I'm coming back as Lady Gaga in my next life...

Love her/hate her, you can't deny she is fierce. She is comfortable with who she is; I mean who else would dare to wear a nude bodysuit in pubic. I find her style refreshing because it is so different&outrageous.

This girl is on top of her game and she knows how to keep people talking about her. The video for 'Telephone' came out today and it certainly is leaving people speechless.

The Monokini

Swimsuit season is right around the corner and I am finding out how low my level of self control is when it comes to food. Not even Kate Moss and her motto "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" can help me.






Victoria's Secret Swim


I have loved monokini's since I first saw them a few summers back, back when everyone thought I was crazy. "Think of the tan lines!"
Well let me tell you, you do not wear a monokini to TAN in.


Any fashionista knows:
a) you wear this bathing suit strictly for fashion purposes. Wear while lounging by the pool and posing for pictures while you are off on your south of the border vacay's.

b) anytime you wear a swimsuit you need to protect your delicate skin. Nobody wants to end up looking like the leather on their Hermès Birkin bag. This is why the spray tan was invented.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

As much as I love these swimsuits they can be difficult to pull off.
My best advice to avoid looking like a poolside pole dancer:
- stick to one solid color
- no neon or metallic; leave the lamé for Betsey Johnson bags
- keep it simple; the fewer cutouts the better
- try before you buy

Fearless

If that's the way you love
You've got to learn so much.
If that's the way you say goodbye,
Then this is how it ends.
And I'm alright with it,
Never going to see me cry.

And if I end up lonely,
At least I will be there knowing,
I believe in love.

There's nothing you can do to me
That's ever going to burn me.
So go on and leave my love
Out on the street
I'm fearless
Better believe I'm fearless...

Guess

As long as there are beautiful things to buy, I will continue to have a struggle with my bank account. My closet grows and my savings seem to remain the same, no matter how big the paycheck every other week seems to be...

"I like my money right were I can see it... Hanging in my closet." -- Carrie Bradshaw

Big Love

"I got to thinking about relationships.
There are those that open you up to something new and exotic,
& those that are old and familiar."

Those that bring up lots of questions

& those that bring you somewhere unexpected.

Those that bring you far from where you started,

& those that bring you back.

But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself.

And if you can find someone to love the you, you love, well, that's just fabulous."

-- Carrie Bradshaw

Walk, Walk, Fashion Baby

The world is your runway.

What will you show up in?

The new year means the start of a new semester at school. Once again I will not fall into the temptation of what seems to be the "college girl uniform"; consisting of sweat pants, Uggs and a messy hair bun.

Everyday is a fashion show. Yes, I am the girl rockin' thigh high boots, tights and a blazer to the grocery store.

Once you step out of your house, you step onto your own little stage for all to see. You never know who will be in the audience, and I for one do not want to run into, Mister Right or Mister Job Opportunity, looking like I would rather be in bed.

The clothing we wear is so much more than protection from the elements. It directly expresses our values, persona and self image.

However, no matter what you wear, the number one fashion accessory you must ALWAYS carry with you... is a great big smile.

"People seldom notice old clothes if you wear a big smile"-- Lee Mildon

Carry On

“As we drive along this road called life, occasionally a girl will find herself a little lost.

And when that happens, I guess she has to let go of the coulda, shoulda, woulda,

buckle up and just keep going.”

- Carrie Bradshaw
