Quote: Go Personal Style PLUS Fab Style Blogger Pics!

Before you read this piece of beauty-equality fabulosity, note it comes from the blogger from Already Pretty. It’s not just esteem-boosting and not just pretty, but beautiful writing!

If you hate skinny jeans and prefer bootcuts because they balance you out, wear ‘em and screw the trend-hounds. If you want to wear foofy vintage dresses every single day because you feel fabulously feminine in them, do it and screw the buzzwreckers. If you think your collarbone is the sexiest thing ever created, wear scoop necks and boat necks and square necks and never ever don a collarbone-masking scarf, and screw the naysayers. Whatever you dislike, avoid it. Whatever makes you feel delighted to be alive, wear it.

And here are some of the bloggers’ style shots from AP’s piece. Their individual links below.

Casual Converse Chic! It can be done. Yay. I was thinking so with this style of sneaker’s non-bulk, so I bought a cute inexpensive version – but I’ll show you those shoes later! (They’re in the mail.)

Be sure to read the entire, lovely, post on Already Pretty.

Fashionista with the Flu after Fashion Week – What I’ve Missed

by Ella Meade on March 2nd, 2010, 11am EST
http://pursedlips.net/d3vb2 ()

I’m sure many fashionistas in NYC got the flu or some bug this February. I mean, with the horrid health care in America, it’s bound to happen more than in London! I posted a London schedule and then fell ill the very weekend in which I was going to actually work right through.

I didn’t believe in flu shots, but um … now I do, the risk just isn’t worth it for me. (Mild asthma still makes the flu worse, ugh.)

So now I’ve rested enough for no more excuses. Here’s a list of resources for those like I…

• Our earlier post has links to review both New York and London weeks.
• LondonFashionWeek.co.uk has coverage, including videos.
• Milan: I couldn’t quickly find a great resource on Milan Fashion Week, which is coming to a close, so here’s a link to the Milan Fashion Week news Google finds.
• Paris Fashion Week starts today! My next post will have has its schedule. Stay tuned. Read Paris Fashion Week’s AW 2010 Schedule.
  

When I get a little bit more time I will review news and shows from London and Milan, and posts might come from that. If anyone has a good resource or schedule for Milan, comment or write!

Proenza Schouler 24hr Purse Pre-Sale – The Real Deal: Is IT … a deal?

by Ella Meade on February 18th, 2010, 12am EST
http://pursedlips.net/sj3a0 ()

In a buzz-causing move, Proenza Schouler is feeding on that epidemic affliction still feverishly “haute” today in despite economic changes: the desire for instant gratification. Bagistas and fashionistas who crave the newest and hautest may be unable to resist the retail tactic PS implemented today—for just one day. A bag from their upcoming Fall line went on sale immediately after that fashion show closed, and will remain on sale for 24 hours.

However read the plain print on the listing pages: “Ships July 30th”. Sure it’s no secret, but is it even any real deal?

Also note this timed offer is no auction, and the purse sells at, of course, full retail for $1,850.

The style’s a bit like a classic school satchel but with modern hardware. Cute, sure – but IT-covetable? We say, not without carrying it next week!

For those who are interested regardless, customers have two seen-on-the-runway choices in the “PS11 Small”: black or “saddle” brown. Check them out at proenzaschouler.com.

What do you think: genius, evil genius, or dumb move?

Catch all the Autumn/Winter 2010 bags in the Proenza Schouler video after the jump.

Hear Hear, (or See See) Get Your Own Belated Front-Row Virtual-Passes to Fashion Week Here

by Ella Meade on February 15th, 2010, 7pm EST
http://pursedlips.net/hx96e ()

*Update* After wondering how MB Fashion Week was mostly big-nameless, we finally realized the official list is incomplete. We’re trying to find more videos for you. As always, more photos are on style.com.

So even though it may be exciting that some designers this season have live streams of their fashion shows on their respective websites – like I, you might find the stalking of those times and domains a little troubling to fit into your life.

Also like I, you may have noticed on Friday, two days into New York Fashion Week, mbfashionweek.com’s YouTube channel they promote still only showcased … cars. Like—ew!!! Even today, where are all the designer videos?

(They’re actually at their other YouTube account. Mmkk so why not link to it?)

Internet searches are sometimes no help in finding what we need. No thanks to some web designers slyly hinting at their most awesome content with mere image links – bah.

So to make it super easy on anyone visiting here, we’re embedding all the runway show official videos from Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week so far, and after this Monday moves on, more quickly relaying them. Hopefully we’ll be able to find you/us all of the other cities’ weeks as well.
