elementary, my dear...

The great thing about the fashion world today is that you don't need a lot of money to live in it. You just need a little creativity and a lot of resources. One of my resources is Modcloth, a website I have mentioned before. It's cute and affordable, just like this Sherlock Holmes-inspired jacket. It was featured for Fall/Winter 2009 but I can't stop obsessing over it even as we head on into Spring. Subtle yet sophisticated with just enough hipster in it to carry on well in the city streets. You can thank me later, Watson...

RIP Mr. McQueen

Today is a horribly sad day in the fashion world. We have a lost a legend in the making. Rest in Peace, Lee Alexander...

Disco Fever!!!

I am obsessed with the new Disco Pants from American Apparel. As of now, we have seen the 70's come back (remember the re-birth of the bellbottoms in the 90s?) then go back out (as if we were embarrassed that we ever let that decade make a comeback in the first place) and now we are desparately trying to make the 70's cool again. Well I got news for you- the 70's were always freakin' cool! I should know- I was born in that decade, which in itself makes that decade the greatest EVER!

Just under 80 bucks, these pants are like the cooler big sister of the skinny jeans and of course to that ugly-stepsister, the leggings. They also come in Black, Red, Navy, and Charcoal. That said, these pants are the rockinest. I know I KNOW, only like 5% of the general population would look hot in these shiny threads but if you can rock 'em, more power to ya'! Excuse me now, I have a date with my treadmill for the next week or so...

If your nails look like this, you are not only freakishly stylish and too cool for this school, but you are AWESOME. And bonus if you rock the HEAVY METALS.
