She Want That Old Thing Back...

"I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men."
Marlene Dietrich

I think fashion & style are maturing.. & I love it!!


I think that ever since Louis V did the collab thingy with Stephen Sprouse it granted leeway for high fashion brands to be grown and urban at the same time. I think it as well allowed urban brands to get on they grown shxt. Get it? Like, it's okay to wear Louis V with some vintage Jordans or a gummy bears ring =D

via the sartorialist... aren't NY'ers flii ^_^

Exhibit B.. The Dee & Ricky brooches for Marc Jacobs.. Urban & High Fashion are joining and in a lovely way...

Everybody Meet Mrs. Me Too

Truth: Sometimes I wake up for school, have no idea what to wear & have little time to choose an outfit.

Lie: I look at the celebs photos in my "RandomFlyIsh" Folder & Put On EXACTLY what they have on. *My indecisive ass*

I certainly do not wear exactly what the celebs wear. I may look at the fit and color combination and grab inspiration for an outfit from it. BUT I ALWAYS make sure my personal style shows. FuQ The Celebs o_O



I would have never thought to wear these colors together v_v

The jean jacket is certainly "in" & fashionable but I was never the type, k. If you're gonna copy. make it yur own. Make it so that people see what yu have on & forget that they ever saw the next nigguh in it. Copy the fashion, make yur personal style vivid.
*the diff between fashion & style below my pic...

*These are before my hair got acquainted with the comb & brush. Don't Judge me

To have a personal style is to have a statement you want to make with your clothing. You use your body as a palette and try to make your outfit into a work of art. Thought goes into a personal style. There are three “yous,” you as you see yourself, you as others see you, and you as you want others to see you. The aim of an impeccable personal style should be to bring these three yous as close together as possible….Which brings us to fashion. There is a reason why the term “dedicated follower of fashion” exists. Because fashion is following trends that are current. It doesn’t matter if the trend is ugly, if it doesn’t go with your personality, if it’s not flattering to your body shape, if the color that is in season does not go with you at all….all that’s irrelevant when you’re trying to be fashionable. Fashion is about checking your mind in at the door and slavishly keeping up with what other people are wearing.”
