Patricia Field Launches a Payless Shoe line

Well to start out the night I greeted all my pals who work at Patricia Field's store, people who've helped me and supported my creativity over the past few years this first pic here is me and Tati ex store manager. Love him! Her parties are always so cozy, a blend of the wackiest fashionistas/personalities of the night,and surprisingly the crowd isn't pretentious. Major plus since I'm not a hautsy tautsy kind of gal. So the second pic we have here is night life DJ legend Larry Tee alongside his pal Arin Reins. We discussed the question of I posed "If we had the choice would we rather have Money vs. being cool". Strangely enough Larry answered, "Money" while Arin and I decided we'd rather be cool because that is something cash can't buy, but it can buy a false image of cool but that's just plain sad! Another favorite couple of mine where present the designer duo "The Blonds" David and Phillipe create gorgeous diamond corsets which are symbolic of the love they share. Guess which picture is them!!!The super friendly fashion legend Patrick McDonald tried on a pair of the high healed boots that are perfect for this winter. Basic and dressy at the same time. Should you want something more flashy,luckily a tricolored high heal will be available to you all!!! Just look at the top of this post to the right and you'll drool over exactly what I'm talking about. If you want to buy a pair and you don't live in NYC just order a pair on line at http://patriciafield.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=104
To end this post I'm including a bunch of pics of the beautiful people or just plain strange that attended the glitzy cocktail soiree!!!

Runway Trends that Actually Work (*gasp*)

I was taking a break from cleaning my room (it's Fall Break, natch), and decided to actually make an effort for a dinner and movie with a friend later today.

The runway trend attempted -- Balenciagia's blazer + scarf. I did it with a black velvet blazer from a few years ago and a French silk scarf Mother Frocker gave to me (read: I stole it from her). After tying my scarf in a new way I learned earlier today,* I put on the blazer and faced the mirror, and...

It actually looked nice. Phew. Although it feels a little weird and choke-y to wear a scarf (hey, it's been 6 months!) right now, it looks great. So here are a few blazers and scarves to copy the look. Trust me, it'll look good.

All the blazers are from jcrew.com, and all the scarves can be found at dnystore.com. (All the pictures are from the same 2 places, of course.)

P.s. -- I like my scarves LOUD.

Look #1

Wool herringbone Bella Jacket, $198**;

Look #2 (aka, if you're gonna wear forest green, why not just look like a forest?)

Velvet Bella jacket, $158; 100% silk scarf, $15.99

Look #3

Super 120s 2-button jacket, $230;

* check out Hermes' website...even if I don't like that store, they still have a great guide on lots of different ways to tie your scarf. Oh, and you'll need Adobe Reader to view it -- it's a PDF)

**Yeah...sorry about these prices. It's J.Crew, and they feel the need to be mad expensive. I've never bought anything from there, but I'm assuming if these jackets are damn near $200-300, they are really good quality.

Ooh, another warning, the site I got the scarves from seems a tad dubious, so buy at your own risk. I did get linked there from amazon.com though, so I think that means they're trustworthy. You can check with your credit card company to see if they do the one-time credit card number thing. Essentially, they'll give you a new credit card number for a single use, just in case you're buying from an online vendor you don't really trust.

Let Lori Early seduce your pretty eyes!!

Lori Earley Well this NCY native has been persuing her talent since a child and if you'd like to buy from her you best be getting on her mailing list ASAP because her work flies of the shelve immediately. She creates images of fairytale goth with a touch of fashion. Innocence and chaos by a hint of gothic nature is what her work displays in my eyes. I want one!!! You should too! Go visit her work on myspace.

Professional Parissienne Artiste!!!

WOW!!! I know I've been featuring fashion illustrators up the wall but there are just so many I've been coming across lately and I want to share them with the world! I love stirring up inspiration and, I appreciate all the thank yous I've been receiving from all you designers I've displayed here at Angel Lust.

Now on to Margerite Sauvage a Paris based freelance artist who has quite a resume of published work. It was her beautiful Kate Moss drawing that gave me a fashionista melt down. Look up her work in the book Tashen book - "Illustration Now !" Ok ladies and gents enjoy! Aurevoir...

Magny a Treat from Norway!

All I have to say is BUY IT,smack it up on your XMAS LIST but definitely check her out on myspace for more!!! There's so much talent on the other side of the world, and I hope somehow all their work ends up here in NYC!!! For more of Magny's work her web site is http.//www.magny.no

Ali J and Her Artistic Paraphanalia

Another Myspace Illustrator/artist of sorts Ali J brings you whimsical little ladies on paper. You can have the luxury of buying little treasures of her creations online at this site Etsy.So support indie talent today.
Ali is another one of Australia's multi faceted designers. She is an illustrator that has appeared in a bevy of commercial work. I like the fact that she takes her talent of illustration to another level,meaning she dabbles in textiles and creates things from there such as cushions with artsy fashion media applied. If you are a bit more curious browse her blog for more!!! She's available for commissions, so start thinking about all the lovely Xmas gifts you can start buying or asking for the holidays. This mirror would be great to all you lovely narcissists beauties out there. Its available at etsy.com go see for yourself.

Hmm...

Just so you know, I meant to publish this almost two months ago... I suppose it's still news-worthy, if you haven't heard from other blogs/magazines by now.

Cartier, the well-known jewellers, makes bags as well (something I apparently should have known already).

And they look amazing. Rich, soft, buttery leather, a beautiful and recognizable yet understated logo, and a new take on a classic shape.

Yum.
