Obsessed!


God I love these! It has more to do with this particular style of jacket...the tailcoat. There were a variety of looks offered during the fall/winter 2010 season by the high-end designers, but while I love it, I've been looking for something a bit more "price friendly." H&M offered a version that I really loved....it was black and priced under $100....the problem is, there is no H&M in my area...so very unfortunate!

Of the three featured, I favor the All Saints (#1-$790), and Balmain (#2-$3,165). I do have a birthday coming up, so I suppose I could start "pandering" to the significant other along with family and friends to contribute to a worthy cause.

Charge Of The Denim Brigade

Whatever your choice of denim, this season's offerings has you covered. While denim usually shows up on the runways in one form or another, it appears that we're enjoying a "denim explosion!" My usual choices are, jeans of course, a denim jacket, vest, and shorts. With such an influx, I've added trouser jeans, a denim dress and jumpsuit to my current list. My ideal style of jumpsuit is one similar to G-Star's runway look....I also love the jeans with the full legs....that particular cut makes a very flattering silhouette.

I'm actually excited at the thought of pairing denim with big, bold, silver and turquoise accessories along with a nice tan bag, preferably fringed. Styling options abound, rendering our denim favorites absolutely indispensable!
