My Fall Must-Haves

For those of you who may not know: I live in Miami, therefore we have two seasons: chilly and burning hot. So, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that Fall is most definitely my favorite season. I have always admired winter wear, but sometimes sacrificing fashion for the sake of keeping my body circulating blood, will mean that the huge parka with the UGG boots will come out and you'll be stuck looking like a grizzly driving a car (am I trying too hard?) Therefore, that is my dissection to how the Fall season is my favorite. The more stylish, comfortable winter wear - the freezing cold.
But enough with my analysis...
Here are some fabulous finds, which I have discovered while indulging in 1,020 (yes, I calculated) pages of InStyle and Marie Claire, that I hope to own this coming season.

Dior Dior Addict Extreme Lipstick in Sunset Boulevard 829  ($30, Sephora)
I love the dark lip for this coming Fall; it's definitely a neutral tone down after all the bright lips this summer.

Not into spending hours at the makeup counter, trying on multiple lipsticks as salespeople harass you into buying everything? No worries. This amazing new lip gloss is definitely something you want to purchase. Chemicals in the gloss work with the pH of your lips, creating the perfect pink hue upon application. This clear lip gloss is brand new, as it has just been revealed with it's Fall/Winter collection. 

Givenchy Le Gloss Revelateur De Liv Magic Lipgloss Lipcolor Revealer ($27.50, Sephora) 

I thought I'd share with you all, ever since I first laid eyes on this Gucci gold textured belt, I have completely fallen in love with it. I love it when I find an item that completely has me head over heels for it, and last season it was this. Truth be told, I love keeping up with trends, but it doesn't take much for me to recycle a prior season accessory, and use it forevermore. Two reasons: I spent money on it, and I have it for a reason, therefore, I'll keep using it. But I specifically wanted to show this belt to contrast it between my new obsession below. 

 

However, this Fall/Winter 2012 I found another item that completely has me in love: Calvin Klein's silver belt. Both thick and thin. It's just the greatest accessory that I would die to own; but unless my name is Kate Bosworth, there's no way I can get my hands on one. ( quick fact: I just read recently that 70% of all runway designs are never produced! Isn't that something? )

 

Can we please just drool over this entire wardrobe? The leather on leather, the mint, and the belt?! It's slowly, but surely, killing me.

I own many purses, but I always keep two handy: a tan and black cross body. After I noticed Crossbody/ Satchel purses were a definite win this coming season, I was ecstatic. This Vintage Revival Flap by Fossil comes in every color, and it's leather- nothing better (hehe, that rhymed!) Though this one isn't a satchel exactly, it's extremely convenient for it's large size (plus it doubles as a handbag). 

This Vintage Re-Issue Flap also by Fossil was inspired by the Italian 70s. There's nothing I love more than foreign and era inspirations. 

 

Lastly, also by Fossil, this Austin Large Flap is probably one of my favorite because of the two key-lock closures. 

 

*make sure to check out Fossil.com to see many more (of their specifically categorized) Crossbody's!

And take a look at the "Suggested for You" under the Austin- I spy two more favorites!

Something I most definitely want to invest in this coming season are some Nail Wraps! I have yet to try out these still-quite-new inventions. This one specifically is called Electro by NCLA. They sell many more here.

As always, I leave the best for last. However, in this case, it's also the most expensive: The Little Black Trench Coat. Although I could never afford this whopping $895 one by Dita Von Teese for Decades, I'm still completely in love with it because it has one thing that no other trench has: a full skirt! Because of that, I could easily throw this over myself with nothing under except the undergarments, some great heels, a nice pair of shades and I'm off! There's nothing more convenient. But, until money actually starts sprouting in my backyard, I won't be owning this. (For those of you so fortunate, it's available for purchase here.)

Just one last shoutout to this great garment: The color, the length, the styling- Opening Ceremony couldn't have designed something better. I just love how both these trenches could be thrown on and just used as a casual outfit. You can't do that with any other, normal trench. (not available for purchase online)

Stay tuned for a Fall Trend Alert coming very soon!

Fashion for Moi

hello hello,

i've been on here quite alot today. ( i tend to do that... if i miss alot of days, I'll make it up by posting alot of posts in one day...balances out ya know?)

anyhoo, while i'm waiting for an old video on youtube to load (just so happens to be daniel radcliffe on letterman; told ya i was obsessed!) i thought you might all be interested in a lil information about myself... and my fashion. so this winter, (living in florida you see) its never really too cold down here, so my winter trend is gonna be shorts over tights, as displayed here:

lamooooh picture, i know, but just thought a visual would help. but as much as i love black, they're not really a daytime color, so i need to stock up on bright colors. . .

and of course, colors that match my gorgeous shoes from urban. seeing as how long it's going to take my shoes to arrive (mid-october) i hope by the time they arrive there will already be a chill in the air !! que ricooo !

.Coco Chanel . . . A true Fashionista.

First known as Gabrielle Chanel, and later derived her name Coco singing late nights at clubs. She is a true inspiration to anyone. She grew up with little, and the rest is...history. If I had to choose a fashion role model, she would be it. why? because she is someone who never let anything or anyone ever bring her down, who knew she had the potential to reach her goals no matter where she came from, and she never let any kind of trial stop her. It's a sad but true tale the life she lived, but she will forever leave her story with us. and we can't forget the famous chanel suits, hats, and little black dress. And my favorite accesories: some white pearls. (for her biography, click here.)

"Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable." -Coco Chanel.

"It is the unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory of fashion that heralds your arrival and prolongs your departure." -Coco Chanel.

Swimwear Fashion Week 2011

hello my lovelies!

well, i must start off by saying that finding pictures from fashion week AFTER it has happened is alot harder than you think. All i was able to find was Trina Turk -___- and as lovely and gorgeous her line is, she's only one designer out of the like 30 in fashion week. As much as i would love to find many more pictures for my invisible viewers, im sorry to say that i will not be spending a whole entire night looking for photos.
Much love . . .
Mila

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week - Swim 2011

As i was cruising Miami Beach, Florida, i couldnt help but to notice all the signs hanging on the street lights saying that fashion week is in miami this year, july 15 thru.... the 18th i think . lol . it is quite difficult to find some pictures of whats going to be shown then about 11 days before theyre ever displayed. So the second i find some pictures (of course, after july 11th) ill will try my best to remember to put them up!

Till fashion week,
Mila

Celebrity Fashions

For my first update on both fashion and celebrities, why not begin with their gorgeous styles on the red carpet?

Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton in a gorgeous Valentino dress. Their upcoming movie, "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" looks like it should be a hit! Gemma looks beautiful as always along side her handsome costar, Jake, who she has said to be one handsome fellow . I couldn't agree better Gemma ;)




and here's the trailer, just for fun!



and here is Gemma once again in a Little Black dress with some black gladiator heels by Gucci <3


Camilla Belle is seen here in a bright red, one shoulder dress by Jason Wu. I absolutely love the way it just falls on her body, and the color with her skin tone is a perfect match. definately my favorite.


The last one for the night is Jennifer Lopez's sequenced Zuhair Murad dress. I love love love this dress, and let me tell you, I'm not a fan of sequence.
