The Other New York Fashion Week

From top: 1. That dog definitely owns a dress that's more lovely than anything I have in my closet...smdh, 2. Sometimes I wish that Cashmere (my sisters dog, aka Aunty's Baby, lol) was a female so I could dress him in such things. The black and white of this photo makes it so glamourous and timeless...crazy for a pic of a dog. lol., 3. This dog bed is wonderful. If I ever own a dog she/he will def have a bed like that. lol

First of all, I have been completely MIA for no reason. I really don't know why I haven't made a single post in so long. Now I'm back to my grind...actually I will b back in full force on Monday. It's the weekend of the Caribbean Festival here in Boston and also my lil brother's bday is Sunday so it should make for a great time. For anyone interested in the Festival come down to Warren Street or Blue Hill Ave between noon and about 4pm tomoro. Trust me, you will enjoy yourself. The food, the costumes (I'll make sure that i include pics of me in mine), and the many, MANY people that you will encounter. Hundreds of thousands to be exact. Anywho, moving on to the story at hand, how many of you knew that NY had a Fashion Week for dogs?! Lol. I surely didn't. Just thought I'd hip you guys to it and share a few of my fav pics from it.

RANDOM

I just wanted to share this ad becuz sumthin about it is so lovely to me. Actually everything about it is lovely to me. The boots, the model, the astronaut...I love it

H&M Shoes R Starting to Catch my Eye

I usually don't care for H&M shoes but they recently had a pair of black leather sling back peeptoe booties in there and I was like hmmmm interesting and came close to copping but then got distracted and ended up wandering off. Their heels are always too low for me. I don't see the point of wearing 1"-3" heels. I've never seen a pair that I liked. Anywho...I just wanted to say that they're getting wild lately...and I like it...a lot. Keep getting wild darlings...please. Pics courtesy of Nitrolicious.com. Retrogurl is the ish.

HoT DESIGNER ALERT: Delise' Ana

A few months ago I discovered a designer from South Carolina named Delise’ Ana. I was taken by her gear and messaged her asking a few questions. I saved a few pics for viewing pressure at my own will, but she didn’t update her myspace for a while and the whole thought kind of got pushed to the side in my mind. Until yesterday when I went on my spizzy and saw a new pic of hers in my news feed. This chick is the truth. I love her gear. I had to share. I hope you like as much as I do. If such is the case head on over to her myspace and check it out for yourself…that’s the link below.

STEALS AND DEALS: Ideeli

Ideeli is a private shopping site as well but they have one thing that the others don’t. Free giveaways. Often. I’m talking designer bags and shoes giveaways on an almost daily basis. Right now they’re doing a Coach bag giveaway so I suggest you stop reading this an just go sign up and enter your name into the pot. They’re also having just about everything Just Cavalli (jewelry, sunnies, and bags) and Ben Sherman sales amongst literally about 8 others. But if you stopped reading and went to sign up when I told you to you would already know that.

STEALS AND DEALS: Hautelook

Hautelook is next on my DEALS AND DEALS list. I think that of all the sites that I belong to Hautelook might be the hippest. They always have really trendy and well known labels from what I can tell. Right now they’re having 7 for all mankind, Seiko watches, and Rock and Republic Shoe, handbag, and beauty sales. The prices are looking pretty damn good too…I just came from there. Lol. Has anyone tried R&R lipgloss? Are they good? They look really cute and I was thinking about coppin. Let me know if you find something you just can’t resist.

STEALS AND DEALS: Gilt Fuse

Ok...I just had to throw this up here real quick cuz I got real excited. i was trying to pace my STEALS AND DEALS and post one or two every few hours, but a new sale just started at noon that get me all types of joyous. Gilt Fuse is a branch of Gilt Groupe that was very recently (last Wednesday to be exact) opened for business. They are targeted toward a younger (and poorer) audience therefore making it PERRRFECT for me. lol. They just started a WeSC sales for the females and want to buy half the stuff on there but I know I can't cuz I'm tryna be a grown up with my dough these days. Boo to that. There are a lot of simple type things that I loooove. I usually go with pretty simple gear cuz I'm a complete accessories person (I count my shoes and bags as accessories) and this WeSC sale is so perfect for my style. It's times like these that I wish I still lived rent free at home with mommy. lol. Oh well. I'm seriously contemplating just buying a single item...but I'm telling myself not to cuz I bought 3 pairs of heels in 2 days last week after justifying my need for them...to myself. Anywho, hop on over to Gilt Fuse. If you keep up with these sales there's almost no way that you'll never buy anything cuz the stuff is really that cheap. Don't believe me? Go see for yourself...
