Love it

The avant-garde lover in me is spellbound by these two from Byblos Spring 2011.  The dress is hot and this blazer/skirt number is just on fire, the necklace alone is blowing me away.  (I will be on the hunt for something similar...)

More From London

These two looks from Jonathan Saunders Spring 2011 are so my style, modern yet classic and very sleek.

P.S. Holy heat wave!  In So Cal we had one real fall day then boom, Indian Summer bliss! It's been in the 80's for days and warm at night which is unheard of with todays high of 99!  We had the coldest summer since 1933, needless to say my friends and I are stoked, I pray it lasts....

Sass & Bide Spring 2011

These two outfits from Sass & Bide are being added to my wish list, this is some serious  fashion shown in London. The first is so decadent, I lust it, the second is the cutest, I'm enamored and I love love love the forward buns.

Fendi Please God

I dream of wearing this chic and cozy Spring 2011 Fendi creation with a cute bikini underneath, drink in hand somewhere fabulous.  It's more billowy in the arms than I normally like but this garment is calling my name.....(I think I need a vacation).  Of course I would keep the glasses but replace the beads and turquoise with a more city look of either thick gold (any version..cuff, linked chain) or a charm bracelet (maybe even silver) but that's just me.

Happy Autumn Equinox

I honestly can't remember where I found this photo, it was so very random but I do remember thinking it would be the perfect picture to ring in fall which apparently starts tonight for us in the West at 8:09 p.m.  I just love her gorgeous goddessness and that wheel seems mystical, like she's engaging the divine autumn spirits....Enjoy everyone, wishing you all a magical season!

Backstage At Ruffian

(How's their signature manicure?  Interesting...)

I love this picture from life.com taken backstage during NY Fashion Week.  The magazine did a feature doucmenting the going ons at Ruffian and apparently it's not like the typical crazy scenario one usually finds, instead they create "a church like feel" and everyone is calm and quiet for about 2 hours before the show.  I think this translates well through their clothes, here's a look from Spring 2011 that I'm adding to my wish list, I like it as a suit but I really want the jacket.

Fall Is In The Air

I think these photos from Nuyou Singapore are stunning and absolutely capture the essence and feel of fall.  The model Du Juan looks gorgeous and of course I love her red lips with minimal make up.  A chill is now in the air here in So Cal, even with a nice day the night air is getting crisp, two more days and it's official...I still need a few new jackets, these two would be nice.

Ethereal Maiden

This goes out to my girl Jenny B who's one of the most beautiful people I've ever met, she's getting married next year and I'm a bridesmaid!  Since her maid of honor and mother live in other states I'm helping her plan it out.....she wants an ethereal goddess like feel and this J Mendel Spring 2011 beauty is inspiring me (of course we need a dress lined.....)  Jenny and I do a rad charity together called Karma Yoga, we raise money and awareness for a non-profit social change organization called Shakti Rising who uses a holistic approach to healing for women 15-30 with great success! They're expanding their reach across the country touching entire communities, it's very exciting, for more info check out the links.

Loving This Michael Kors

I haven't always been the biggest Michael Kors fan but that has recently changed, I had the best shopping experience with a client at his store recently and have realized he always has key basics that are super cute, it's sportswear at it's finest.  I think I'll add  this one to my upcoming spring 2011 wardrobe.


P.S. Hey everyone, check out my new web page....lafeem.com!!

My Favorite Marc Jacobs

I'm sure by now most of you have seen photos of Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 line, this is my favorite of the bunch and would go perfectly with the spring fantasy wardrobe I seem to be building on the blog...

Spring Beauty

If I worked with celebrity clients during award season here's a beauty from Jenny Packham's Spring 2011 line that would be in my repertoire.  It looks incredible with those earrings and seems perfect to catch the flash of lights, the only change I'd make would be adding a nice berry lip and the bottom might need to be lined....

Wes Gordon Spring 2011

LOVE these pieces from this collection.  The white with a dash of black looks amazing as does the light gray and the combo of it all in the last photo with the pop of yellow in the shoes is dreamy.

Risto Spring 2011

I'm of course scouring the internet for coverage of NY Fashion Week and I keep seeing  neutral earth tones again and again.  I love the cantaloup color here and these shoes are incredible! More free flowing looks for Spring 2011, I'm liking it, looking forward to some relaxed yet chic clothing.

A Dash Of Ethnicity

I love these two neutral looks with ethnic shoes & earrings from Julian Louie's Spring 2011 collection , this is my kind of boho.....

I Wish...

I wish I was in Italy wearing this amazing outfit strolling around these fabulous grounds with some sort of purpose!!
TGIF, have a fabulous weekend everybody.

The Lady In Red

Marie Claire Italia's September cover is one of the best I've seen this month.  The model looks amazing, again it's minimal make up with a great red lip and this dress is epic.  I've been so into red the last few weeks searching for the right piece to add to my mix, not an easy task but when it works its hard to beat.  

Beauteous

This shot by Bruna Castanheira is so beautiful, I'm completely enchanted and that blouse, not sure who it's by but I do know I want it in my closet.

Styling: Cesar Cortinove

Model: Bruna Tenorio

A Little Haute Grunge

I love this look head to toe from Firetrap Fall 2010, perfect for a casual day or night.  The temperature is definitely cooling around these parts (my predication of an indian summer is not yet happening...) but instead of getting depressed this photo is making me excited to bust out my black motorcycle jacket and find some new boots!

Two From Santa Lolla Spring 2011

I love these two looks for next spring and realized it's the second line I've gravitated to for 2011 that has dark and muted colors...interesting.  Happy Labor Day, I wish everyone stateside a fun and relaxing holiday!

Viva Mexico

Coco Rocha is fantastic in this shot from Vogue Mexico, she looks amazing and really captures the essence of this country's look, passion and fervor for life in beautiful flowing white (with a nice dash of black).  Her encompassing beauty and zest is why Mex is so dear to my  heart.   

Up Close And Personal

I swooned and gasped when I saw this picture from Melbourne's Recent Spring/Summer 2010 Fashion Week, this is from the line Thurley..so gorgeous!  While we enter fall the folks down under are just about to whoop it up.....Speaking of ~ Happy Labor Day Weekend~ wishing you all the best holiday!

P.S. Sara from A Trice of Life passed on the Versatile Blogger Award to me after receiving it herself, I'm very flattered and supposed to share 7 things about myself so since were up close and personal today I thought, why not?

1. I spent my teens and twenties entwined in the skateboard/surf industry amongst famous pros and incredible artists/designers who inspired me to create, without these crazy talented boys I would not be doing what I'm doing today!

2. Sake is my drink of choice but I am in love with champagne, beer and order vodka out on the town.

3. Coffee makes my life 100 times better and I crave afternoon americanos & cappuccinos.

4. I believe we are responsible for our destiny, we are the manifestors of our lives, whatever you think about you will get so stay positive!

5. I currently rock out to Bloc Party at the gym obsessively.

6. I live for holidays, vacations and weekends!

7.  I feel like a reincarnated mexican, act like a european and dress like a city slicker all while being a total So Cal beach gal.

I'm supposed to pass this on to 7 others,  so I pick Haydee from Happenstance, Kendall from KendallK, Bianca from Bink and Boo, Alexandra from Rustic Rooster, Alexis from Fern and Feather, Julia from San Diego Songbird, Jules from The Diversion Project and Brandi at Not Your Average Ordinary.....I guess I'm at 8, oh well.

Ralph Lauren Fall Favorites

Here are some RL looks I want in my closet for fall.  The pin stripped suit is amazing, all the pants look impeccable and the buttons used on a few at the bottom are so cool.  The lace gloves are divine, the incredible evening number combines the masculine/femininity of his clothes perfectly and both outfits in the last photo are just so cute.  I've said it before, he's one of my all time favorites and I love that I'm able to put a range of clients in his clothes, definitely a line worth investing in.

Vintage Bardot

I absolutely adore this picture of Brigitte, we all know she was the ultimate bombshell but it's really nice to see her in a super cute proper sweater and fabulous skirt looking almost demure....and those shoes, I want them!  It's funny how "mad" society has gotten, this outfit would be in any current magazine today.  The blue, white, green color combo is perfect and her hair & make up are amazing, I must go on the hunt to replicate!
