a happy birthday!

to my sister melanie and my friend sky! woohoo!

today was a very long day at the Allure Offices and had so much work...

which was due to the fact that i went to sleep at 4am-ish and woke up at 8am

i only had a 4hour sleep

Note to self: sleep! women sleeeep!

So last night im waiting for the bus like always, at around the same time.

The air was super nice and i just spent a good amount of money on

clothes and a garment rack at bed bath and beyond, which by the way was only 20 dollars!

yes, i was super excited! i always wanted one but never really got myself to buy it...So yes...

where was i? ...Ahh yes, so the night was beautiful and the

air was super clear, and by clear, i mean NYC clear...my city homies will understand.

I got on the bus, and there was little to no-one, Then the bus made a stop at 74th street like always to pick up

so as the bus turns slighty to leave a man, middle 30's or so, blue eyes, short dark brown hair, and

a long dark navy blue coat taps on the window...sadly the driver doesnt see him and pulls away.

Now outside me is

"Oh no! well that sucks..."

Inside me is

"HAHAHA loser! maybe if he flys down 3 blocks he can catch it! DOUBT IT!"

i know super mean haha

so what happenes, 2seconds later we are at 77th street and

BAM

he's there!

i was in total shock because it was like magic that he made it 3blocks, the bus was totally fast...

i still can't believe it happened.

As he sits across from me, my face is totally in

mode, but of course i made no emotion to the naked eye.

The funny thing is that he started to talk to me and like many guys in NYC who randomly talk to you, it's a red sign for

creeep!

but for some reason no sign went on and we talked the whole way....

today's veeee-diii-ooOhh of the day:

why? because i love them! this video is pureee love...

love ya <3

What do you wear?

my daily routine.

It begins with my ipod going off 5feet away from my bed,

so it makes me get up to turn it off…not snooze it.

As soon as im awake I put on some tunes,

(randomly of course) look outside the window to figure out if it’s cold or not,

then open my closet.

What you wear can affect how you feel that day, believe me…

even though the weather sucks I always try my best to make sure I like

what I wear when I leave my apartment.

what's your routine?

i love you,

jillian

buzznet fashion:

june paski- her diy dress which i most love!

breesays- she started at a very young age..

marialia- because she's the only one that can rock a jean bow and a spidy tee.

raquel- do i really need to explain...

swingthefocus- not only do i love what she wears, but hello she has a UKULELE!

jessica- there is nothing like a studs and red lipstick

rubi- just cause shes her own fashion style.

Faux Ball.

the Jimmy Choo collection hit H&M.

I have a totally different view then a lot of people that are

getting a little obsessed with faux fur vests.

The funny thing is that I never put in mind that it was kind of a new trend.

Since i dont like anything related to fur, i can't seem to wrap around my head how this is a great thing?

Okay maybe i'm going a little rough since it's not REAL fur, but isnt it kinda promoting real fur?...

I have to admit tho that it looks pretty on tall models and

the H&M faux fur vest looks so warm and cozy,

me i look like a furball...not good.

what do you think about the lastest trend?

i love you! xo

New York Fashion Week

So New York Fashion week is over, OFFICIALY. This saddens me because it's always

great to randomly walk downtown, bump into models and half naked male models haha.

There is also that chance that if you have luck on your side, you can stand at

bryant park and see your favorite designer because everyone enters

though the same doors.

[alexander wang spring10]

With all that said, i have picked out my favorite runway shows. i watched about

40 runway shows on fashion tv [a great channel on my cable, they def know me].

I wrote down my favs

and searched them on youtube to show you. i watched them all so you wont have to watch the

"bad" ones [in my opinion].

This will not included

Marc Jacobs, although he is one of my FAV designers

this year he failed...bad. I miss the old great Marc shows...

Anyways!

Enjoy!

love ya<3

September 10th,2009

was pretty much the best day ever! Not only did i start my internship at Allure Magazine,

but so was the start of Fashion Week and the day that every designer and fashion

student/or anyone who knew, was waiting for.

Now i am aware that many of you have no idea what this event meant,

so no worries, let me explain it to you.

Explain:

Fashion Night Out was on September 10th, on this day the main goal was

to bring back the economy by shopping and enjoying it. Some might say a way to celebrate Fashion and it's history.

Vogue and CFDA (which is fancy for [Council of Fashion Designers of America]) got together to create the day.

The event:

Everywhere, they tired to do it global.

New York, United Kingdom, Greece, Italy, Russia, France

Brazil, India, Spain, China, Germany, Japan, and Taiwan

Quote:

"America’s fashion capital, New York City. Next only to finance, fashion is the second-largest sector of industry in New York City—the headquarters of more than 800 fashion companies employing 175,000 people and generating $10 billion in total wages. At City Hall’s May 20 press conference to announce Fashion’s Night Out, Vera Wang said, "To put it bluntly, if people don’t shop, people lose their jobs."

Video:

Hope that this made you understand, why that day was really special to me, and to be 100% honest what made me smile was to see people enjoying themselves while shopping.

Now for some photos:

Summer is sadly coming to an end, but this also means that Fall/Winter trends will be showing themselves

in every store, for every designer.

Before i start telling you the trends for fall/winter and back to school, i want to

remind you about Fashion Night Out, an event with most of the top designers in New York City!

check out the website! Let me know if your planning on going, im volunteering [I'll let you know where soon!]

Its a season where creative wear will show more, something i love.

New York City tends to go for the Black/White Look which isn't bad but wish i can see more color and movement!

Source of inspiration part one.

photos that give me some sort of inspiration this very week.

there is no order, no meaning to some of them, some reflected my life this week and others were just beautiful.

welcome to part one:

The Rescue in my eyes

friday night...

i meet with all the handy helpers at 6pm and the empire state ferry to talk about some last min. details and to get to know more each-other before the big day. They are honesty and ive seen it before, are like my family. We finished at around 8pm then shawn and me walked all around brooklyn trying to find a 2 train to go home, no cabs were around...bumed me out but the day was amazing.

We found the train...after walking about 4miles haha

THE RESCUE DAY.

I had to be there at around 10am to set up with everyone. We worked so hard and everyone got down and dirty. The weather helped things go alot smoother which was great. Then at around 5pm we all witnessed the greatest sound, the sound of 3000 people walking the brooklyn bridge. We got rescued
by a handful of mogues, which was awsome. Although photos speak more than words...

[most of these photos are mine but some are from my friends, meg,sky,jon,sean and cei cei.]

THE NIGHT WATCH:

So i was on night watch, meaning i couldnt sleep, not that i wasnt allowed to, i just wasnt sleepy. Jon and Sky came to help out which was the best thing ever and what completed the night like a grand prize. We had a blast like good friends should have.

buddyyyy haha

jon fell asleep haha

as we/they wake up...a weekend to never forget...
