Men's fashion

It seems that men.style.com is predicting a hippie influence for men's fashion, citing Birkenstock-like sandals, flower prints and light denim as the newest trends.

God, I hope not.





What is UP with homeboy #3's pompadour? I don't see this becoming a trend past a few men who are really into fashion or can afford designer clothes from the runway. I could, however, see this being more popular if the flowers shrink in size... like in a fabric that you couldn't tell was a floral until you got closer... Damn, I wish I could create textiles.

Yuck.

I was hoping style.com's slideshow on Klimt would change my mind about the artist, but it actually just made me think that he really should not be taken as a fashion inspiration.


Adele Bloch-Bauer I (1907)


Christian Dior Haute Couture, Spring 2008

Yes, yes, I know it's haute couture... but the ready-to-wear clothing inspired by Klimt isn't much nicer.


Anna Sui

I will say, however, that this clutch is quite nice. Stunning, even.



Christian Lacroix


Obviously, someone likes this stuff, but it's just NOT my bag -- pun unintended.

All photos from style.com, of course.

Every Artist has her Muse!!!

I have so many of them,and I feel blessed to know so many beautiful,quirky,crazy individuals of all fields and paths of life. I don't hold any prejudice. The GIRLZ that inspire me remind me of certain parts of my life and others that represent something I can't even grasp. So here are a few of my favorite muse.....


This little Lolita eccentric reminds me of me in my late teens till 22 or so. Wandering the East Village in crazy beautiful mode and chilling out in simple cheap places. simplicity suits me best. I'm an old fashioned gal,and ordinary girl living in an extraordinary world.


My NYC ballerina,turned model turned actress and all time fashionista Kat-Bunny. She's my BFF currently residing in the UK at a posh theater school. She's danced before a thousand eyes and sipped Sophia Coppola champagne in a pink can before a personal audience. Kat has a closet full of vintage prom dresses toe shoes and designer jeans and killer individual taste!!!


To the right is Melissa, a party girl I met while I worked at Betsey Johnson on Madison Ave back in the day. We ran the store like our own personal club house. The boss never came in. She's just a nice art student gal pal from Queens with a quick wit and sick sense of humor!!!


Alison and Catherine Pierce aka The Pierce's...I just turn on their music and the ideas just flow my way hands down, and no effort. Plus I've been into this kind of rock n roll since I was a kid. These 2 chicks have such effortless beauty. When you see them out they probably don't even have any makeup on.

A little something I'm working on

Buy me



I'm placing orders and struggling with the $$$ so if you want to buy my love LOL you can start here!!!

While you were sleeping....

I'm slowly working through some of my notes on places to check out. One place(s) is the MILK USAGI MALL in Samoa *Japane (Samoa (225, 136, 57). In each mall there is a freebie section. You'll find the freebie section in this mall along the back wall of the first floor and another upstairs along the front wall of the store. There are also a couple of freebies within vendor booths. Just take a look around. You'll also find camping chairs at this location; at other locations you'll find lucky chairs. The malls are small and if you decide to check them all out (the black spinning box near the entry will dispense a note card with landmarks to other locations) take a look in the areas surrounding each small mall. Japanese vendors often offer freebies. (Dress, boots/ $0 / f)



I'm wearing a new skin from Frick ( Blackmount 98/138/64) who makes Another Skin modifications that are fantasy inspired. All the skins here are reasonably priced at $30 and under. (IZ skin/ $1/2 pack / f)

I'm wearing one of the hairs that you too can find on the Earth Day hunt that ends Sunday on Lemon Island home of Bewitched Hair. ($0/12 hairs bought from trees / m&f)

Costumes!

I was hopping around a couple of places trying to help a new guy find some armor and rp stuff and spotted some new to me freebies.



First stop was the Free Fandom Project (Lippert 160, 111, 171). Although we didn't spot the armor that I had previously blogged about here. We did find an awesome Sweeny avatar. I'm not wearing the shape included with the avatar, but it is a guy's av ^.^. ($0, m/f)




Next we headed off to a couple of the Ultimate Hero (Simpkins 137/242/55) stores and found an outfit for GIRLS!!! I'm not sure who exactly Jill is, but I love her outfit! I'm wearing skin from Spirit (Plush Tau 41, 14, 28), catch the info on either of the two previous posts and hair from Free Speerit(Quest III 155, 150, 22 - rush to get this one). (Ultimate Hero costumes $0 m/f, Spirit skin $1/2 pack f, Free Speerit hair $0 f)



Ok, so two strikes the last and final stop (for this post ;) ) did yield him an excellent set of armor and there was also a complete female warrior with skin, hair, and animation overide available (pictured above). The quality on these two offerings from Boxed Heroes (Plush Epsilon 58/57/22) is amazing! ($0 m/f)

WB Lappy!

Yay! My lappy is back from the dr's with a brand new keyboard and hopefully it will not shut off every time I enter the little pixelated universe I call part time home. Hope you didn't miss us too much. =^.^=

Well, in case you missed it on the entry a couple below this one Amorepacific4's hair spot (this is the Mise En Sine location on the hud found at approximately: Amorepacific4 81, 137, 66) is back up and running. Stop by to camp for some darling hairs for both the guys and gals. (Don't forget there are a couple of hair styles for the ladies in the Hera ballroom along with dresses, shoes, masks, & fans. You can also find free furniture, han-bock dresses, shoes, and knick-knacks in the Amore Museum. And don't forget there are a couple of spots to camp for female skins also. Explore, explore, explore!) (Camp times vary from 20 minutes or less.)

I received a lovely preview of $1 skins from SavannahAnn of Spirit (Plush Tau 41, 14, 28). If you teleport to the Pro Cheer Skin's room you'll find that one pack of each Veteran skin tone (commercial accessible from Spirit's blog) is available priced at only $1/pack normally $1000. So if you haven't gone by to check out this new hybrid photo sourced - hand painted line NOW is your chance! Look for the Giants Light Glossy and Matte pack in whatever skin tone you prefer. ($1/2 pack of skin) These skins were used in all the photos.

When I logged in I found myself at the ever expanding SakuraTown (mall area I - SakuraTown 46, 46, 32) which has added a new SakuraTown II mall area ( SakuraTown 71, 197, 24). The mall area II recently celebrated it's grand opening and many of the freebies may be taken down so rush over to check it all out. If you haven't visited this area please stop by and check it out. It's jammed with freebies and you can enjoy the spring festivities. If you get confused the red roofed areas are part of the original mall and blue roofed stores are part of the mall II expansion. There's even a couple of things for the guys to. ($0)



Much more behind cut...

Another Sakura festival and shopping area hot spot is located in the Access Island region. I've written about this area (access 162, 150, 22 -cross the bridge if you'd like to look at the area previously blogged) before, but since then it has expanded doubling in size. If you haven't experienced a lot of Japanese shopping this would be an excellent introduction to tons of designers. There's a lot here, but only about 10 items offered up from any one designer. There's numerous stalls ranging from clothing, hair, skin, tinies, and even a couple of neko items. And yes, the guys will be happy if you bring them along because there are a couple freebies here for him also! ($0-$1)



If you haven't popped on over to the Wing Fling (Platinum 128,10,21) you might just want to because besides having a ton of wings in one place to browse there are also two great deals ($1 & 0). You can find a great map of the booth layout on Second Style Cast. You'll want to check out Seven's Selections and Battle Fairy's booths.



The capris modeled with the wings are from a gem of a store La petite fleur (aquapolis (186, 176, 41) which has put out the cutest little khaki dress. One word of warning here *Try before you buy, all the prim skirts are no modify!*($0)



Additional items: Hair pictured with the La petite fleur outfit is from Free Speerit, (Quest III 155, 150, 22). These hairs will only be available for a very short time ($0-rush). The shoes are an old stand by from Ada Store (Fontaine (39, 104, 50). ($0)

Well that and Eric Damon has excellent taste and worked under legendary style icon Patricia Field for Sex in the City...All things are good when it has to do with gossip,in this case at least. I have a few screen stills here but stay tuned for more to come!!!

A big thanks to BUI-LAVRY PR for making EVERYTHING and ANYTHING happen as long as it is in good conscience and never straying from their motto....

Macy's Window Display for Earth Week in NYC

The fashion Industry really knows how to put the message out there with all the designers/window dressers/makeup artistry and hair stylist...I love these MACY'S window's with soda cans cut into sculpted flower head pieces. Trash bag plastic wigs,and yarn hair. It really has got me excited about going green or at least trying a bit harder.

Newsflash!

iht.com, the International Herald Tribune, has a newly revamped Style section. It's much easier to navigate, and has a much better layout now. Check it out!

I "discovered" iht.com about two summers ago, and since then, I get all of my news (style, culture, world news, you name it) from there. Plus, they have this awesome real estate section where you can drool over French chateaus that cost 800 million Euros. How do you even make that much money?

BOW CRAZY!!!

Henri Bendel’s will feature the Angel Lust head piece showcase by designer/style blogger, Kristen May Anastasia a designer gaining a small cult status rather quickly amongst downtown and uptown girls . You can view and purchase gorgeous French lace collaged pieces with Italian beads and swarovski crystals, or the now famous bow worn on Gossip Girl the new hit TV series for the fashion hungry!!! The viewing dates are April 21st till the 23rd during store hours. The date of April 22nd there is a possibility one actresses from Gossip Girl will be available by Kristen’s side to sign autographs for fans of the show that day.

Hip young Boutiques such as Shop and Patricia Field carry Angel Lust currently,but the big time stores such as Anthropology and England’s Top Shop are showing an interest. notes her sales reps.

Blonds have more fun!!!!

You can bet I will be there after the insanity of my bow crazy trunk show!!! MAO PR always throws a good party!!! Chardonay please someone!!!

Head-Band Culture

Check these out at Susie Bubble's blog!!! I'm not the only one who has caught the buzz!!!

Flower Power with the Blond's!!!

Downtown costume designers on the rise to fame Phillipe and David Blond have prepared the windows at Macy's alongside Fashion window legend Billy B. Watch this for the pre inspiration trip.

Cool-weather wear

Here in the "middle" states on the East Coast, we sometimes have peculiar weather. In one day, the weather can go from 45 degrees (Fahrenheit, that is) to 85, all the way down to 30.

If you're like me, you end up going outside well-equipped to face the morning chill only to be sweating profusely come midday, or you're fine all day till the sun sets and you're left to fight off the chill in a flimsy tank top. You'd think 20+ years of living here would get it down, but things are different when you've had to wear a uniform for 18 years of that life. :P

So I put together some outfits using trusty old Polyvore:




Left: As you can see, this is an outfit for an overall warmer day. A gray and white striped tank top is covered by teal wool cardigan with a shawl color that can be rearranged to keep your neck warm. Add long brown walking shorts for a bit more coverage, and gold flat sandals complete the look.

Middle: A cooler day requires more substantial layers and closed shoes, so try a longer coral tank top underneath a green swing jacket with bracelet-length sleeves. A pair of straight leg jeans and black shiny flats lend an air of sophistication and ease.

Right: For a moderate day, a full belted skirt can be paired with a t-shirt and cardigan for warmth. Open-toe striped shoes with a slight wedge heel echo the graphic print of the shirt.

Click on the picture for more details!

We need your help!!!

So this Earth Day April 22nd I am privileged to participate in the event of an eco friendly fashion show. The state of New York contacted my reps to put this hot non profit event together.

Any way let me just cut to the Chris Whelan chase (LMAO), we need some reliable volunteers to help out back stage dressing s few of www.models.com top 50 male models and other things. I can't come out and say that a certain Guess campaign model or Ralph Lauren/Italian Cover boy will be there, But please if you would like to volunteer (in a professional manner) we'd all really appreciate it.

EDUN will be showing as well as other smaller established brands such as Carasan.
Contact info@bui-lavrypr.com if you are interested.

Beware of the Cops

So if you're not buried in freebies or just can't get enough head down to the start point (Red Stick International Animatio, Granymyr (227, 53, 34) and touch the kiosk for the lovely list of participants in this grid wide hunt.

Wall Decals

If you're looking for a way to spruce up your bachelorette pad I suggest these wall stickers. They are sexy and modern, and whats in your home is a reflection of the self. This will bring the loving in. Buy it here on Etsy!!!
