LouisBoston Blogger Event...
Photography taken by: ME!
Probably one of the coolest events I have ever been to! Literally. It was all about fashion and art and there is nothing more I like than fashion and art. LouisBoston is the place to go if you are a fashionable person who also enjoys modern art(and has a bit of money to spend). Louis carries several brand names such as Proenza Schouler, Bespoken, Jason Wu, Marni, Pedro Lourenco and WAY MORE. The location is kind of secluded since it's not exactly in the middle of the city BUT it's located next to the sea and the view is priceless. Louis also contains a Mario Russo salon and a restaurant. Not only did I enjoy the store itself BUT I also met so many other Boston bloggers and trendy people. It was so delightful meeting everyone. I didn't even know there were so many Boston fashion bloggers. I hope to see many of the bloggers again. I also had the honor of meeting the owner of Louis which was pretty cool. The funny thing is that I had heard of LouisBoston before from the custom tailor/ designer that I intern with BUT I had never paid it a visit. I finally got the chance to visit LouisBoston and I will certainly be returning. I strongly reccomend this store to anyone who lives in Boston or anyone visiting Boston.
P.s.- Thank you LouisBoston for allowing me to be a part of your Boston bloggers event! I really appreciate it!
P.s.s.- Since I am currently super sick I didn't feel like uploading ALL of the pictures I took at the event. I will be uploading the rest of the pictures soon though. Don't worry!
AWKWARD...
Photography taken by: ME!
ENJOY! I hope YOU have been liking my recent posting...because I have enjoyed posting for YOU!
I Love Puffy Things...
What I like about the woman on the left is her "Chi Omega" sweater which belongs to a sorority or frat house. I think that is cool. BUT the reason for this photograph is the puffy white jacket vest on the girl on the right. I love how she is wearing the vest with a plaid shirt underneath. It reminds me a lot of an article GQ wrote in one of their magazines about puffy jacket vests.
Burberry Surprise!...
I love the red pinstriped dress! BUT what do I love more than that beautiful eye-catching pinstriped red dress? HER BURBERRY PURSE!!!
Actually, It's A Floral Print....
Looking at her coat from afar I thought it was a military jacket BUT was wonderfully surprised when I found out it is actually a floral printed jacket. I love it! I also love how she carries her messenger bag.
Friends Are Bonuses?!...
I could not help but notice the pink boots/slippers on that woman on the right. Her friend is in the picture as a bonus...lol!
What Beautiful Scarf You Have On!...
I love her scarf and brownish/yellowish/goldish skirt. She works very well with her colors. VERY WELL.
Abused Trends Are My Fashion Pet Peeve...
Are you noticing the trend yet? Well if you haven't...the UVA uniform for women is the leather boots. They ALL wear them ALL the time. This means that when I was shooting women I would only look at what they were wearing up top because that was the only thing that changed.
P.s.- I want to thank EVERYONE who has been following me and commenting and viewing my blog. I was checking my stats for yesterday and was shocked and amazed and so thankful for EVERYONE that viewed my blog. I want to quickly say that due to ALL of YOU(my lovely readers/followers) I hit a wonderfully record high views of 128. I think I have gotten higher BUT not for a VERY VERY long time. I honestly feel like I have resurrected my blog, so THANK YOU!
Always In A Rush...
This is the typical male ensemble for UVA students. Well fitted khaki pants, Shirt, and Boat shoes without socks.
It's Been A While Since Street Style...
I love how the blazer is peaking from underneath the red coat...
All Saints Clothing Store...
Cool window display, huh? Well I found this store in Newbury Street in Boston where all the designer boutiques and stores are located. I was shocked. I walked in this store for the first time and thought I had walked in to heaven. So many beautiful, trendy, chic, and rebellious pieces of clothing! Even the employees there were dressed super cool. This is kind of like an Urban Outfitters, but with a rebellious theme to it and the prices are a little higher. Their clothing is quality clothing though so it's definitely worth the extra money. If you visit their website(allsaints.com) you will be able to see all the wonderful clothing that I'm talking about.
I just quickly want to thank all my new blog followers and Twitter followers and Bloglovin followers! I already have done so on Twitter...but in case some of you don't follow me on Twitter and didn't get the Tweets...here it is. I really appreciate ALL of your support and ALL of your follows. I cannot begin to describe in words how much it means to me. THANK YOU once again!!!
Boston Fashion Week: L'elite Boutique...
Photography by: Me!
If you follow me on Twitter, you would be aware that this week is Boston Fashion Week(BFW) and that I have been DYING to attend some of the events. Well, this is my first event.
L'elite Boutique in Newbury Street was hosting an exposition or showroom of their exclusive designer dresses. Most of it was actually couture which was pretty AMAZING since I have never been up close to couture clothing. L'elite sells high end designers from France, Spain, Lebanon, and United States. Their prices range from $250-$1000 and above. Obviously the dresses that cost $250 are on sale at the very back of the boutique, but it doesn't matter because the dresses on sale are also very chic. If I were a woman and I stepped into L'elite and saw the high prices for the extremely beautiful couture dresses that are sold there, I wouldn't even care! I would just spend. Think about it...you spend a good amount of money for 1) a quality dress 2) a couture dress(the word COUTURE should explain itself perfectly. period.) 3) your dress will not ever be worn by anyone but you because it's couture and exclusive! As soon as my sister and I arrived at the shop, we were kindly greeted by the pretty women working at the store and they were kind enough to show us around. They talked to us a bit about every designer and my sister started talking about how she really wanted to buy her prom dress for this year at L'elite. So who knows...we may be returning later on during the year to buy my sister her prom dress.
By the way...the cool jacket and skirt combination(it is the 4th picture from top to bottom) is from a designer called Lian Carlo. My sister and I both strongly agree that his dress(7th pictures down) and his jacket have the coolest print ever! Not to mention that to go along with the camouflage looking print he pleated the jacket and dress to give it an even tougher, yet feminine look. I just love his dresses.
P.s.- I have linked every single "L'Elite" word (including the one in this sentence) so that you can click it and go directly to the Boutique's website and check out what they have! Trust me...YOU will not be disappointed.
P.s.s.-I am determined to learn more about womens clothing. When I say I want to learn about womens clothing, I am referring to the way it is built, structured, and which are the best fabrics. Especially for high end dresses because since I want to be a mens apparel designer...I know EVERYTHING about mens clothing, but I know nothing about womens. Ask me about how to differentiate a high quality mans suit from a low quality mans suit and I will know. Ask me what are the best fabrics for mens suits and I will say Emernegildo Zegna and Loro Piana and various other fabrics from textile mills in England, Italy, and France. Once again I say, I know nothing about womens high end dresses and it annoys me that I don't know!
P.s.s.s.-Talking about mens suits...I will soon be posting pictures of the various suits which I have contributed my help in making and have actually done a lot in. My hand sewing skills have gone from decent to unbelievably fast and I like it! Also my sewing machine skills have improved my a ton as well! I will be posting pictures soon!
