Trend: Leopard

In case you've been hiding under a rock, leopard is EVERYWHERE. 

Do you dare to wear a chubby (cropped furry loveliness of a jacket)?

 

(Bloomingdale's catalogue)

If not, here are other ways to incorporate a touch of leopard into your fall wardrobe.....

I just want to share.....

I have developed quite the liking for interior design blogs, and the latest development on the interior design front is the launch of RUE magazine. Click the picture to see for yourself the fabulousness! It's the prefect afternoon activity. 

the bad

While there are hundreds of GORGEOUS dresses to pick from in the Spring collections, there are a few that maybe pushed the limit too far.  I'll leave you with these photos for the weekend while I slave away at my drafting table coming up with sketches for next week that highlight the good of Fashion Week.

Let's leave these looks to Lady Gaga and Katy Perry. 

let's play catch-up

The past week has been a whirlwind to say the least. I have.....

.....moved (and am still in the process of moving).....pics on that coming later.....

.....celebrated my mom's birthday.....

.....FINALLY updated my phone to the new software or whatever, which allowed me to do this.....

(so there's no confusion on who's phone it is)

.....FINALLY found a copy of the September issue of NFocus, which has the latest Wedding101 ad (page 81), as well as a 12-page spread on the fall must-haves that I assisted with.....

......I have also been sorting through the latest photos from Fashion Week for Spring '11, gathering tons of inspiration/photos/ideas/etc. that you will see soon.....

.....and lastly, I made it to the Frist Center (two days before the exhibit closed) to see the Golden Age of Couture exhibit. I must say that if you missed it, you definitely missed out. It was absolutely beautiful as were the clothes. It made me wish I lived in that era where the clothes were impeccable in every single way. The details, the shapes, the accessories, the under garments ALL made me drool. And, even though it said no photos, I couldn't resist. They are all taken on my phone so they are very blurry because I was trying to be sneaky.....

(The booklet that I was supposed to return at the end of the exhibit, yea right....I took another one so I would have two)

This dress reminded me of the one January Jones wore to the Emmy's. 

I want someone to wear this to the Oscars this year:

Back in this era, they would make the clothes in a miniature version first before constructing it full size. 

MY favorite part, the sketches....

Happy Thursday!
