Fashion Fab & Fail....Sunday!
June 10, 2012
Hello dolls!
I hope everyone is having a great weekend! Mine has been pretty busy so I’m bringing you Fashion Fab & Fail Friday live to you from….Sunday!!!
Fashion fab of the week goes to the beautiful model Miranda Kerr who rocked a trench in the airport on June 3rd. The combination of the sleek trench, pumps and sunglasses is to die for! She looks so classy & sophisticated. I have always loved a trench and this white is perfect for the spring/summer season. I also love how hers is the perfect length….the hemline is longer than whatever she is wearing underneath. Gorgeous!

Fashion Fail of the week is Lily Collins, sorry girl. I loved her in Mirror, Mirror (I’m a Disney Princess at heart…I’m loving all these fairytale remakes coming out) but her look definitely didn’t strike me as an outfit fit for a princess. She wore the following skirt and blouse to Chanel’s “The Little Black Jacket” Event last week….

I didn’t like the combination of the button-down blouse with the detailed skirt. The skirt would have been more appropriate paired with a tucked-in blouse with a bit more shape to it so it would have better shown off the skirt. In my opinion, the blouse doesn’t seem to go with the skirt…plus the color of this is so bland it washes her out! Someone call the Fashion Fairy Godmother STAT!
I hope everyone is having a splendid weekend full of fashion fabs!
XOXO,

June's First Fashion Fab & Fail Friday!
June 1, 2012
Hello you fabulous readers, you!
It’s the weekend….can I get a woo-hoo?! AND it’s JUNE...can I get another woo-hoo?!
Also WOO-HOO for my very first blog post of June and the very first Fashion Fab & Fail Friday!!! Fashion Fab of the week is a look I absolutely LOVE but sometimes can be hard to pull off….the jumper! Last week Malin Akerman who is in the upcoming Rock of Ages movie wore a black strapless jumpsuit in Hollywood and totally rocked the look. I absolutely LOOOOOVE a black jumpsuit…it’s the perfect alternative to a LBD. It also looks lovely with the heels! And her pulled-back hair style is super chic as well. Overall a great look!

So my fashion fail of the week is Diane Kruger who wore a gown by Dior Haute Couture at the Cannes Film Festival. I know Couture fashion is usually over the top…but what's up with the fullness of this dress?! It’s a bit too much of a throw-back to Gone With the Wind for me. It might have looked better with a solid pattern but the odd pattern and the overall shape of the dress makes for one WEIRD ensemble.

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!!! Check back tomorrow for a NAIL POST!!!

Fashion Fab & Fail Fri....errr Saturday??
May 26, 2012
Hello my dear readers!
She arrived in a GORGEOUS red lace gown by Elie Saab. I love this look on her for many reasons: 1) RED…so glamorous for an awards show. 2) I like the length of the gown….she is tall and this really shows off her great figure. 3) The sheer upper part of this gown is TOTALLY in right now! Some sort of sheer element has been incorporated into many celebrities’ gowns lately. 4) HER. HAIR. IS. AMAZING. T Swizzle has recently been sporting this new look…straight with bangs…and I am seriously in love. While the curly has been her signature look for quite some time, I feel that her new look is definitely a more sophisticated look.
My fashion fail of the week goes to Kristen Stewart at the Cannes Film Festival last week. She wore some wild Balenciaga pants and a Rebecca Minkoff blazer that I just found too crazy. I always love a blazer and I love heels so I like those two elements of this outfit. HOWEVER, those pants are just WAY too wild for my taste. I’m not sure what to think of the yellow ripped pattern on top of what looks like sprinkle covered pants…..yikes Kristen!!!!
Ok ok ok, I know it’s called Fashion Fab & Fail FRIDAY….and today is technically SATURDAY, but I am writing this post just a wee bit late because I spent yesterday with my sweet boyfriend who “left on a jet plane” (see how I quoted that song?) last night for a whole MONTH to study abroad in Paris, France (cue the waterworks….runny mascara is not a cute look, maybe I was fashion fail at the airport yesterday?). So please forgive my late posting…but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless!
This past Sunday was the Billboard Music Awards and my Fashion Fab of the week goes to one of my hands-down favorite singers of all time and person in general Taylor Swift (have you seen my other T Swift posts? HERE and HERE…I know, I’m obsessed. What else is new?!).

Fashion Fab & Fail Friday: A Little Weekend Style Inspiration!
May 18, 2012
Happy Friday lovely readers! I hope you're having a great start to your weekend.
For my Fashion Fab this Friday I thought I would give you a casual look for some weekend style inspiration. Eva Longoria went shopping this past week in this ah-dor-able outfit. I pretty much want everything she is wearing in this photo!!! It's the perfect mix of laid-back and put-together. She looks AMAZING in her coral AG Adriano Goldschmied jeans (read my post on coral jeans HERE) and I love the white button-down blouse she paired with them. NOT TO MENTION her brown leather Hermes bag.....

In contrast to Eva's bright and fun look, my fashion fail of the week goes to Ginnifer Goodwin in a Jonathan Saudners dress she wore to an Entertainment Weekly party this week. Overall I'm just not a fan of the red leather....to me, leather is better saved for the fall/winter season. ALSO I really don't like the high-waisted line of the dress. Overall just not my favorite look! Eva definitely wins this fashion face-off for May 18th!

Thank you dolls for reading & I hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend!!!

Fashion Fab & Fail Friday: Eva Longoria vs. Elizabeth Banks
May 11, 2012
Happy Friday gorgeous readers!
Thank you SO much for reading my Fashion Fab & Fail Friday for this week! Who are your fashion fabs & fails of the week? I would love to hear from you so leave me a comment & let me know!
XOXO,
I am writing this Fashion Friday from one of my favorite places to be…Nashville, TN! I am on a break before my summer class starts next week so I am visiting my bf & his family here in Nashville. I can’t wait to do a post all about some of the fabulous shopping I’ve done while here!
But I digress…back to the topic of this post. Since it IS Friday I wanted to go ahead and do my Fashion Fab & Fail Friday!!!
My Fashion Fab of the week goes to Eva Longoria. Oh the Little Black Dress!!! The LBD is timeless but can also be a “wow” fashion statement. I think Eva definitely fits the WOW category in this black Victoria Beckham dress she wore to an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman this week. The cut of front of the dress is absolutely gorgeous and the longer hemline is on trend with dresses this spring. But THEN she turns around...and that zipper down the back adds a fresh new twist to the LBD! I love it! Also, let's not forget to mention the Brian Atwood heels….could this look get any better? I think not!

My Fashion Fail of the week goes to the still always beautiful Elizabeth Banks. I just have to say that even though I wasn’t crazy about the dress she is wearing in the picture below, she is STILL so gorgeous. However this Peter Pilotto dress she wore to the premiere of What to Expect When You’re Expecting dress almost distracts from her beauty. Another case in my opinion where the dress is wearing HER and she is not wearing the dress. I am not crazy about floral prints normally anyway, but especially this pattern. Maybe if the colors would have been different I would have liked it a little better but I’m just not crazy about this look.
