The Ellements of Personal Style

Working at Urban Outfitters has is perks.. love that discount lol.

But what I also love is our current selection of Style and Fashion books. Yesterday I stumbled across "The Ellements of Personal Style"

A book showcasing the personal style of 25 Modern Fashion Icons, some include

Tracie Ellis Ross, Estelle, and Coreographer Fatima Robinson.

I cant wait to read this book, and the photographs are amazing.

Through His Lens

Whilst browsing the internet, I always happen to stumble upon some amazing information, and this time is no different.

Behold the amazing works of Bill Cunningham, Famous NY Street Style Photographer who has been capturing some of the most fashionable folk since before my time lol

She's Focused Man

Last week I purchased the most recent WWD from Boarders

(fine print read: "take off of shelves February 28, 2011" lol)

which included a wonderfulinterview with Victoria Beckham. I quite enjoyed reading her answers to the questions. After reading her interview I felt even more motivated to continue to pursue my aspirations.

Victoria is very passionate and takes whats she does very seriously.

She produces her pieces in England and Italy, which much be very expencive but I'm sure the quality is excellent. Made me think that although a lot of our product here in the US is made in China and is a lot cheaper, the quality is not all that great majority of the time; and I want quality!

I may have to follow in her foot steps with that once the time comes. All in all, I applaud Victoria for being very serious about her Brand and not just another celebrity with a clothing line.

Color me Bright

As I am sure most of the "Fashion Forward" are aware of, bright pops of color are all the rage this Spring/Summer Season aproaching, and I am all for it.

Although, I normally stay with a rather simple pallete when it comes to wardrobe and bump it up with an accessory or two, I may have to add some bright tops, bottoms, and dresses to my

wardrobe.

Thanks to style.com I was able to look at some of the SS 2011 Runway shows and I must say that Haider Ackermann, and Gucci's collecction are two of my favorites.

Both incorporated the Bright colors into their collections beautifully

Here are a few of my favorite BRIGHT looks from each..

The rest of each designer's collections were GORGEOUS. They truely made my heart happy lol

My Designer Dreams

So I have decided to start a blog documenting my andventures in the wonderful world of Fashion. I've been working with a wonderful Designer by the name of Kas since I was

17 years old, and I am now 21 =) quite a while huh lol.

I am now his PA and one of the Assistant designers within the Company

This blog will focus on my journey as I continue to grow and transition from "Aspiring Designer" to "Designer" with a few other Fashion related things in between lol
