[London Calling] ALL OF THE LIGHTS courtesy of Brian Litchtenberg


On the Queen: Brian Lichtenberg Gold Geo Glitter Shift Dress, YSL Trib Too High Heel Pump in Red Suede. On Lelah: Brian Lichtenberg Black / Silver Patchwork Glitter Dress, YSL Palais High Heel Pump in Black Patent Leather and YSL Arty Oval Ring with Black Stone

Hello lovelies! I apologize for the disappearance but I've just returned from an unforgettable trip to London. I've always wanted to visit and when a recent opportunity arose to do so, I practically flew out of the door. 
 
I scored my Brian Lichtenberg Gold Geo Glitter Shift Dress from one of the many London shopping meccas Selfridges. Selfridges was quite possibly, the largest luxury department store that I've ever seen, boasting several floors and levels of everything from All Saints to Balenciaga. While there, I assisted my international travel buddy Lelah with her first luxury dress selection. For her petite figure, I went with the Brian Lichtenberg Black / Silver Patchwork Glitter Dress. The Patchwork Glitter Dress was perfect thanks to the one strong shoulder and mixed textures, which emphasized her tiny frame. As for me, it should come as no surprise that I selected a dress that emphasized what else, my legs! I paired my dress with a pair of tomato red suede YSL pumps, the perfect compliment for black and gold. The only criticism I had of the above Brian Litchtenberg designs was the shedding. We practically left a trail of glitter everywhere we went!

And if you're wondering about my English Geisha, she was our hostess for the late evening. She made sure that we were not only well-entertained but properly full with champagne and cocktails. Believe me, a lot of confessions were made on that glitter covered dance floor.

[Indian Summer] Back to Basics

Images by Michael R. McMahan 


Don't get too used to outfit posts. I'm no model and am fortunate to have someone who doesn't mind documenting my less-than-amazing looks from time to time. I won't lie, I do enjoying getting my America's Next Top Model on in front of the camera. I'm comfortable in what I'm wearing and it's all real, well, except for my weave (although my weave is REAL hair). 

This summer I discovered Pleasure Doing Business (PDB). I absolutely love their bandage skirts. Normally, I'd only wear flouncy skirts because of my muscular legs but now, thanks to PDB, I can have fun with the body con look without a full-on body con dress. I look forward to their Fall 2011 with great anticipation. 

As for my holey Kain Label t-shirt, I just can't let it go. I have another Kain Label t-shirt and it is just as holey. As I'm sure you all know, Kain t-shirts don't come cheap so, if I'm going to spend the money, then I'm going to wear the t-shirt until it is unwearable. Holes doth not make a t-shirt unwearable (unless I have a job interview or something of the sort).

[Indian Summer] All Hail the Queen

My friends up north wish it were that warm. I'm currently on vacation in Florida, soaking up as much sun as humanly possible. I mean, can you blame me? I'm a recent law school graduate, who is unemployed and miserable. 

I vow to only do outfit posts on what I actually wear. I really can't stand fashion blogger fame and dressing up just to have my picture taken. So if I'm wearing something you like (or dislike) trust that it is actually apart of my "personal style," whatever nebulous thing that is...
