whaaaat's that? hermes you got there? pffffttttttt.

today during French class we were learning about the Chrismas activities the lovely French do. We watched this video of some icky tourist person around Paris, talking about the stuff they have. There were moments where he was talking about the French like small boutiques rather than the big obnoxious department stores like Lord & Taylor, with evil saleswomen who peer pressure you into buying that DKNY skirt. There was a moment of a group of VERYY chicly dressed women peering into an Hermes shop window. I found the picture online!

That was the store, but obviously, that is only one woman and she just has a black coat on. Durrrrr.

Me and my very chic and awesometastic french teacher started gushing over it, and talking about the cute miny Birkin bags and the pretty scarf we really needed. Man, I love her. She's so fun and nice to talk to!

But yeaaaaaaaahhh.

Just thought I should share.

k-dawggg- also known as karl lagerfeld.

Karl Lagerfeld shot some photos for the Marie Claire calender. I love them with a passion.
By the way... any French speakers out there? I learned a while back that "quart", which means "quarter", is pronounced "karr". Everytime she says it, I say, or a friend does, I immediately think of the coold dude we all know that wears tuxes with sunglasses all the time.

yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh. 'nuff said.

have a great night!

pre fall fashions - hit & miss list

yay. I really like pre-fall fashions, mainly because it's extremely interesting to see what designers have in store for us this fall. Plus, it's great from the usual -spring clothes- in the brisk cold fall type of thing, which in this case, is actually clothes in weather where you would NEED warm clothes. make any sense?

LOVELOVELOVE-Jason Wu / He's one of my favorite designers. This is the first time he's worked with leather, so all the pieces should be pretty much a piece of living inspiration. And this particular dress is my favorite. It's very girlish, with the short hemmed dress, but just take a look at the gunmetal-ness of it all! I want this dress so bad, you don't even know...

Rag & Bone / another favorite designer brand of mine. I like their more colorful pieces, like the blue-ish dress a model wore at the Met Ball a while back, but this piece is pretty cool, you have to say. Their whole collection is all tight pants, basic top, but it was based on their consumers. Being veryyyy ready-to-wear and useful was a key in their collection.

Caroline Herrera / Finally, some color! Herrera herself said that she wanted it light, airy, fun, and more, with inspiration from the TWENTIES. that's right, the TWENTIES! [I just watched Singin' In the Rain, best. costuming. EVER.] I love this so much, veryveryvery chic.

MHMMMM-Narcisco Rodriguez / This outfit is boring, I don't like a lot. A lot of his other stuff was kinda boring, blah, put perfect for wrinkly librarians. I also don't think the shape of this outfit really suits anybody.

Zero + Maria Cornejo / Let's get straight to the point- honestly, who is going to wear it? I do give major kudos to it for being unique, but I personally think it's just working here. Not many celebrities or just consumers, really, want to wear a baggy dress.

P.S. What do you think of all these outfits, collections, styles, etc?

chic gifts for the chic darlingg.

holy noodles!
holy french fries!
holy shizz!
holy glitter!
holy muffins!
holy hotcakes!
holy confetti!

However you may be or surprised or however you say it, Christmas is coming up in 24 days. whoahhh. I know. Where has time gone by?
So if you're like me, and still have to buy some presents for people, I hope this is going to help.


you know 'em aand love 'em. the girl who is always looking gorgeous, with perfect make up, and a certain poise. plus, she's an invidual with a great fashion aesthetic. what to get ?

- make up !
although somethings, like blemish concealer could be quite offending, most make up items work. a surefire hit is a lip gloss, the universal make up gift. you can get a nice high end one, like Dior, or choose a drugstore version and buy either more or something else. Other things that are great to buy for make up- eyeshadow pallettes, especially the Coastal Scents 88 Color palette, or blushes. I'm especially fond of blushes, because they give your face a fresh burst of color.
**NOTE** a great website for beauty-licious STEALS is beautyticket.com.

YSL Eyeshadow Duo- retails for $45, but on beautyticket? Only $19.99!

- the little chic notebook
Every fashionista should have a little notebook. It can be to make lists of her favorite fall collections, or a wishlist of things to do next summer. Nowadays, so many places have cheap yet adorable options. My favorite place would be Target. With a great school supply selection, you're bound to find something adorable.
On the other hand, how cute is this Coach planner?

- a scarf .
I can't tell you how much I would love it if I got some scarves for Christmas. Even if they aren't the silky Hermes type, who cares?! It's cold as heck outside, and right now warmth beats fashion by a longgggg way. Unless someone actually buys me one... But anyways, scarves are great because anyone can wear them in million of ways, and they are actually useful. Plus, no worrying about sizes! I like Forever 21 scarves a lot, for they are cheap AND chic. brava!The perfect scarf. Warm cute cheap chic adorable AND all of the above.

some misscaleaneous ideas ;
= slippers and Godiva hot chocolate equals cozy and warm.
= don't get a spa at home kit thing- tacky and really should be the individuals choice.
= shirt from their favorite store- especially if the store is far away, it shows that you listen & care.
= a book or magazines.
= a perfume they especially gab about a lawt.
= album of photos from good times. <3

Have a lovely holiday!

my top iconic and amazing bags .

Even if I may be using a chain store, found-at-Urban Outfitters Deux Lux bag doesn't mean that I can't have an appreciation for high end designers bags. Just think of how classic, timeless, and chic they'll be! Buying sequined tank tops are trendy, but a Chanel 2.55? As you can see, some things just never go out of style. By the way, kindess is ALWAYS in style. *cough*MEANGIRLSATMYSCHOOL*cough**cough*

Here is a are two my favorites that I would DIE to own.













Ta-da, the ever so classic and French Chanel 2.55.
First made in the 1920's, this bag was made after mademoisselle Coco Chanel herself began tired of using clutches that would only make her arms busier. Thus, the created this bad, which debut on the market in 1929. In 1955, she updated it, and the house of Chanel re-debut it in 2005. Now, many stars in Hollywood are seen with this enviable bag, from LC to Nicole Richie.


bam ! I bring to you the fashionable Louis Vuitton Speedy 35.
It's a bit different from the other LV bags, seeing as it isn't plastered with LV all over it, with the signature shade of brown as well. It's a bit more modern, and super easy to work with. Just toss it in your bag and baby, you can go, go, gooooo.

love you ! xxxx francesca

marc jacobs ! nous adorons tu !

"I remember walking the dog one day, I saw a car full of teenage girls, and one of them rolled down the window and yelled, 'Marc Jacobs!' in a French accent. It just seemed too weird to me. I don't know, maybe they were smoking a joint in the car downstairs from their parents' apartment. I had to go that far to put together a scenario of how they could have possibly recognized me."

-MARC JACOBS

Wednesday, October 21, 2009

anyone can have style, but only fashionistas have courage.

if you were to take a walk around our school, you would probably die.
just kidding. but you might not like many things people are wearing. At our school, most girls are into the abercrombie or hollister look. You know, wearing a "cute" abercrombie shirt with a pair of darkswash skinnies and a pair of uggs. and OMGZZZZZZ ! like, is that a juicy jacket? ohmygoshhhhhh i loooovelovelovelovee it haha tee hee!

fine. maybe I'm going overboard. But I think you get the point.

Even when I have friends that are aber-obsessed, I'm happy to say at least some of them have a teeensy bit of originality and wear some other things from the stores, like a scarf, or a knit sweater. And don't get me wrong, abercrombie jeans are pretty good quality, and I own a super soft grey slouchy shirt from the store that I really love. But sadly, there are still some people who have no originality whatsoever and only wear a uniform of a logo tee, jeans, and uggs every single day.

*gags* no thank you. i don't really feel like advertising for you...

but hey! this doesn't mean there aren't any fashionistas at our school!

Take Lizzi. She's one of my good friends who shops at Urban Outfitters, H&M, American Apparel, and some designer stores frequently. Loooooveee it. She has a great style- although I'm not one hundred percent sure if I can take the liberty of defining it, but I'd say it's L.A. chic with a bit of indie thrown in.

In fact, her and her mom have a fashion blog that is very helpful! You can find it at 13goingon47.wordpress.com. Check it out or else be cursed by the fashion gods. Just kidding.

Also, I have another awesome dresser of a friend. Because I haven't checked in on with her, I'll just call her D. She shops at Urban Outfitters, like Lizzi, and also with some Free People and Lucky. Equal amour ! XOXOXOOXXX.

And that's it. Better go finish that homework!

Love,
Francesca

GAGA for GaGa

I am such a huge Lady Gaga fan. Many think she's crazy, bizzarre, and a freak, but I beg to differ. Not since Michael Jackson have we met someone with the guts to have an incredible style, great music, and at the same time, not give a crap about what others think of her. Obsessed? Of course!

And guess what? I'm being her for Halloween. I ordered a hairbow online, which I am absolutely praying to god that it comes at the most, before Halloween, but hopefully before two parties that are in a week for one, and the day before Halloween, for another. Ahhhhhhh!!

One itsy bitsy problem though. I have no idea what to wear.
It has to be pretty cheap, because my hair bow was thirty dollars itself. (By the way, it was from England, and international shipping is SUPPOOSEDDD to take a week to twelve days!!!) If you can come up with a fab outfit idea, I will love you. Foreverandeverandeverrrrr.

That's all for today! Comment and I'l also loveee you.

Love,

sequins, sequins are so fun, when they're made for everyone.

In case you haven't heard, sequins are making a comeback. And before I continue, I just want to tell you that I swear on Chanel Iman, Vogue, and well. Sequins, that I never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever lie. EVER. Got it? Good.

To continue... well, I'm pretty much in love with sequins. But I've been in love with them for such a long time. Since the start of summer when maybe just ONE designer, I'm not sure who, had like. A shirt completely adorned with sequins. It was amour at first sight.

And now, since fall is seriously here, as in IN-YOUR-FACE here, designers are whipping out trends quicker than you can even utter to yourself "j'adore". And a trend that is evolving? SEQUINS. sequins, sequins, sequins, sequins! all in there magnicifent glory.

But like anything worthwhile, too much is not good. You don't want to end up look this, non?


Sequins are definitely a lot more appropriate for night time, and parties and what-not, but it's super easy to incorporate these beautiful designs into a daytime ensemble, for school.

Balmain always does the most superb/fantastic/insane/epic work with sequins for fall.
This isn't the best picture of what they've made, but a good example. I'm particularily in love with the third outfit. The white tee really balances the glamour from the sequined bandage skirt.


To work sequins into a more modest outfit for school, maybe work, is still quite simple.
I'd suggest instead of being more head-on like wearing the tight tunics Balmain has to offer, but more of... accessories!

*jazz hands here*

Take this for instance.

A beautifully made Coach Poppy bag. It would work for a school bag, and instantly gives your outfit a couple of extra points. In the case if you ever choose to go mime, and wear all black, people will still OOOH and AHHHHH over your outfit with this beauty.
Yay for sequined shoe wear DKNY has these for 98 dollars at net-a-porter right now. Not only will they match with absolutely anything in your wardrobe, but who doesn't love DKNY? Plus, they're less expensive then some other tackier shoe pieces from Coach.

Oh, darn it.
Blogger isn't being a lovely person and isn't letting me upload photos.
Au revoir, mes amies!

Love,
Francesca

Lusting after Louis.

Obviously, this is super old.
Like, ancient older than your tea loving,-lace wearing-curly haired-great-great-grandma-whoIdesperatelyhopeisNOTreadingthis.

But if DIANE VON FURSTENBURG is reading this, you're a cool woman. Wink wink!

Anyways.

Everybody knows that Louis Vuitton makes really awesome bags. Speedy 350, anyone? But in addition to clasic bags, their clothing lines are always super chic, trendy, and above all, FUN to watch. To remind you all, who are right now probably just lusting over the new Spring Ready-To-Wears [ADAM and Peter Som absolutely owned it!] think back to Fall 09.


The playfullness works wonders for an otherwise super sophisticated fashion house, but every single outfit is tied together and just.. CHIC. Must I say anymore?

I hope you have a newfound love for Louis Vuitton as much as I do, now.

One mistake? THIS.

Jet'aime,

2. Started gymnastics! I love it.
3. Made tons of new friends.
4. I'm getting braces on the twelth, though.

That's all for now. I'm going to watch Titanic!

summer is out, school is in.

Can you believe it?
For many people, it feels like just yesterday we had gotten out of class. But sadly, that is not the case here. In fact, we just had a about 2 1/2 months of summer break. Away from the stressful school days, cramming for the unnecessary tests, overflowing drama, and stinky gym locker rooms. I hope all of you readers had a very enjoyable summer!

But school isn't a one-hundred percent bad thing. Everyone has been busy like a bee, going shopping for things! A school bag, some shiny lip gloss, and a hot dress for homecoming. (If you're in high school, that is.)

But just in case you aren't Chanel Iman, and you do have the occasional slip-up, just keep on reading for ways to tackle tricky situations, mostly at school.

Issue: What the heck am I wearing on the first day of school?!
Answer: Don't worry. If you haven't started yet, keep it comfy, cool, and sweet. Try a tank top tucked into a nice pair of shorts, with a light cardigan. Or, a pair of denim destroyed shorts with a J. Crew top. It's all about you this time!

Issue: UHHH. Make up help, please?
Answer: Just keep it simple. I can't stress how skanky and bad it looks when yo ucake on the eyeliner, like all the girls at my school do. Why not something nicer? A neutral eyeshadow, with some mascara, blush, and lip gloss will do. No need to take out the false eyelashes, non?

Issue: I have a party/dance/FNO. What to wear?
Answer: For the dressier ones, wear a glam dress. Forever 21 cocktail dresses are great for this. Add a cardigan if needed, and a pair of flats to dance the night away. Or socialize, for that matter! If you're going to a less formal ocacasion, try a pair of cropped jeans that are below the knee, but not full length. It does get awfully hot at these places. A simple tee works. Dress it up with some bangles. I wouldn't recommend necklaces, though, because they can get tres annoying when dancing.

Issue: I. Spilled. Sauce. On. My. Shirt.
Answer: For the year, try keeping a spare shirt in your locker. Make it something basic, like a plain pink tee. You could also use a hoodie for the longer months, although I'm not a huge fan of the look of them. Work the minimalist look, girl.

Issue: I have 3 tests, tomorrow, a quiz today, and a huge essay to finish. Help!
Answer: Work a little bit of each thing. Write a paragraph, study five pages from your text book, and then answer some prep questions. When you feel like you can't do any more, go drink something warm and calming. Then, get started again.

Issue: I'm just not happy with my... social life.
Answer: Think of Blair Waldorf. Not only is she one of the most popular girls in the entire city, she has outstanding grades and is involved in many extra-curricular activities that will benefit her in the long run. Grades are important, but it's also important to have friends. If you're not the most popular girl in school, it doesn't matter. As long as you're happy with your friends, life is good. If you want to make friends, just be nice to everyone! Giving a compliment also doesn't hurt, and help them when they need it. Just please don't be a suck-up. No one likes a suck-up.

Hope your school year is simply fabulous!

xx Francesca.

Marsey, a Vogue Intern





































Let me introduce Marsey.
She's a fabulous 18 year old currently residing on the Upper East Side.
She interns for Vogue, and will be attending Parsons School of Design in the fall. (Keep in mind.. alumni include Marc Jacobs, Sophia Buahi, Lisa Mayock, Derek Lam, Narciso Rodriguez, and many more...) But really. Working in the same office as the people who make and create Vogue every month (ANNA!) is quite amazing. Lets give it up for Marsey!

F- Hey Marsey! Thanks for the interview. Now, I wonder, has fashion always been a dream of yours?
M- Fashion has definitely always been my dream. My mom worked in the industry and I grew up around it... so it's only natural that I would get drawn in by the industry. I remember drawing up crazy sketches when I was little and going through my mom's closet, putting myself in gowns that were way to big for me lol. I knew at a very young age that fashion was what I wanted... and I was determined to get it.
F- I can relate. How did you apply for your Vogue internship?
M- I sent in my resume and was really excited when I got my interview. I guess I impressed the interviewer and later, I got a call telling me that I got the job.
F- Fab! Now tell us, what does a typical day look like for you?
M- A typical day? It's really tiring lol. In the morning, I do the coffee runs... then throughout the day, I organize the Vogue closet, pack samples for photo shoots, and steam A LOT of clothes lol.
F- Many girls would still die for anything Vogue! Hehe. What about Anna Wintour. Have you met her?
M- I have met Anna but I've never had a heart to heart conversation with her. When you're working in an atmosphere like Vogue, everyone's always busy and always running all over the place. I've never had the opportunity to really talk to her... but I hope one day I will.
F- So do we. What about the movie coming out soon?
M- I personally can't wait for the movie... I think it's a great reflection of how the magazine industry really works.
F- Neither can I. Back to you, what are your future dreams?
M- You know, I don't know my future dreams yet. I've never been the type of person who planned out her entire future... I guess I'll see where destiny takes me. Hopefully, I'll stay in the fashion industry and actually get a paying job that I love. We'll see...
F- Hopefully at Vogue? (; What are some of your favorite trends or items for fall?
M- I love this question haha. I'm a big fan of ankle boots right now... I think they would come in handy in the fall. Also leather jacket... I love leather jackets, especially paired with a feminine dress. I just love to roughness aspect it offers.
F- Agreed! I adore the juxtaposition theme. Can you describe your style to us, and favorite designers?
M- My style... that's a hard one. I have a uptown style but mixed with a downtown vibe. I love wearing vintage and adding some modern pieces to it. I just love to mix and match... i would say that I have a feminine style but it's rough around the edges. My favorite designers are Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la Renta, Chanel, YSL, and Rag and Bone .
F- Sounds tres chic! Now, do you have advice for young fashionistas?
M- I don't know if my advice will help lol but i think it's really important to have fun with fashion. I think when you love it and when you enjoy it, it will show. So instead of worrying about going into the industry and finding a job that involves fashion, just have fun with it. When you have fun with it, the opportunities will naturally come. Hope these answers are good :)
F- Thanks so much for you words of wisdom, Marsey. Good luck!

That's it for today, readers.

Marsey also has her own blog. You can find it here.

Thanks for reading!

Back to school so soon, darling?

Yes, as we all have been worrying about as our french manicures dried, school is coming back soon. For some of you unlucky people, you've already started- but for many others, school starts in about a week or two. Here's a checklist so you don't come running into school as the "new kid". (Even when you've been attending this place for years!)

1. Back to school shopping! Ahh, one of my favorite things to do. Make a long list, than go online, to your local mall, a major city, or the outlets, and do some good 'ol retail therapy. Buy basics, like jeans, v-necks, and tank tops, but also think about fall's trends. Teen Vogue, anybody?















"ohmygawd. what do you think?" (;
2. Develop good habits. Hey, party people- when school starts, you can be dancing until 3 am anymore! Start going to sleep early.
Drink something warm, and snuggle with your favorite magazine or book. No need for under eye circles, non?













yay for cucumbers.
3. Find the perfect bag! Even I'm still looking for one. Urban Outfitters has many options,
and various website do, too. I also like to check out my local Marshall's or T.J. Maxx.















you know you love it.
4. Get a back to school glow! Use peaches. Cut. Rub over your face. Let it soak in your pores while
you contemplate on what to wear on your first day of school. Plus, a little bronzer and highlighter wouldn't hurt.













We love peaches, yes we do, we love peaches how about you?
And that's pretty much all you need for a fab start.
Hope to see you soon!

Au revoir.

Shoes, shoes, the magical fruit, the more you buy, the more you're.. happy?

If you're on of those people who can always find the most perfect shoes, with the special little deals, and the special little details, at the best stores, well... gahh! Luck duck. You see, I think I have the most troubled feet and luck in the world. I rarely find shoes that fit well. I am about a size 6, but my feet wide. I know, I know, Nordstrom has that shoe size service, but I've never bought shoes online. I'm too worried.

So right now, I'm dreaming about some FAB fall boots that might actually fit me!



















Tory Burch Reva leopard-print flats, $225 at Net-A-Porter.
Fabulous designed. I have had my eye on these since forever, in this glam print and a basic gold. The shoes are pretty versatile, and can be worn with many things during this fall. A good investment? I hope!



















Chloé flat leather boots, $900 at Net-A-Porter.
I really love the riding boots style. They look so chic, so sophisticated, so mature. Plus, really fab! I can rock them with jeans. Consider them the UGGs of fall.

Sorry for the short post!

MUAH!

Fall trends.

With fall comes change. The leaves become different shades, everyone moves up a grade, and it's a time where you can reinvent yourself just before school starts again. Plus, designers whip out new fabulous looks, witch turn into the hottest new trends.

This fall, the look can be described as rocker-chic, bold, and sophisticated.

Fall's big trends are-
exposed zippers *
tees *
motorcycle style *
lace
80's
distressed jeans
boots *
statement scarf *
denim shirts
bangles
and gold. *
(My favorites have a star next to them.)

These are an awful lot of trends to follow, so don't feel you have to be a slave to the runways. All you have to do is pick a couple you love and be done for fall!

Examples of my favorite trends-




















Preen Line stretched cotton zipped skirt, $475
In the front, a display of zippers. On the back, 2 long zippers going around.
This would look great with a basic top, or simple tee (another fall trend!). In the winter, wear it with a longsleeve, tights, and heels or flats. It can be dressed up or down



















Lanvin beaded cotton top, $500
Tees are easily dressed up or down. Wear it with skinnies for school, or take it out of town with a chic little black blazer. Forever 21 has so many that it shouldn't be a problem to find a couple for cheap.




















Miu Miu leather biker jacket, $2,375
Quite expensive, but is fab. You can find cheaper versions at Urban Outfitters and Forever 21.
Girl it up with a floral dress, like Demi Lovato.



















Forever 21 Gambia Slouchy Boots, $26.80
Hey, for this price, and from the review I've heard, they are pretty decent quality and are fab! I went a few days ago with a friend to go Forever 21 shopping, and I tried on these booties. Worried about the quality, I hesitated and promised myself to come back. Now, I'm obsessed with them! They will match with everything, and are casual and chic.






















Diane von Furstenburg 'Arcadia' Diamond Silk Scarf
Statement scarves easily make your outfit. Marc Jacobs was famous for his neon ones on the fall runways, which were bright and patterned. This scarf, by DVF, can easily be added to a simple dress to give it a chic air.

As for gold accessories, the list goes on and on, I won't even show an example. Most of you readers do have some form of a gold accessory, whether it be a delicated heirloom necklace or a pack of bangles you picked up from Target. Either why, it's so easy to incorporate this trend into your closet!

Thanks so much for reading. Comment back with stories, questions, whatever floats your boat.

Stay haute!
