Christian Siriano's back...

...and in a excellent way.

2012 Spring Fashion Week reminded me just how much I love him. Last mentioned {here}, obviously my adoration for him has not diminished in the least.

Pictures? But of course! I've got you covered.

A power suit in a power color with some power sunglasses and power shoes. How could you possibly go wrong?

A simple dress by most standards. But wait! What's that on those shoulders? A splash of (feathery) drama that Siriano's known for. And plus the shoes and the bag... well we all know I love me some neon.

Puffy, yes. Extravagant, yes. Over-the-top, yes. Would I wear it in a hearbeat if I had the body to work it and a place to wear it, ohmygoodnessgracious yes.

I like this. I like it a lot. Fitted and feathers gives this dress structure but still a playful side, a sense of joy that continues on, leading into the whimsical flowy-ness of the skirt. Oh I'm legit. 

 So... this is freaking beautiful. It's effortless, but yet, this girl got some 'tude. I love it. I want it. Now. If not sooner.

Oh the joy of looking at beautiful clothes.

Personally, I think everyone should subscribe to their emails. I did, and it changed my life.

Can I Just Say...

...that Fashion Week is an excellent idea? Whoever thought of having a week filled beyond the brim of wonderful, whimsical, usually-not-functional fashion is pure genius.

That being said, recently in our Spanish class, we had to make a presentation on a Latino (or is Hispanic more PC?) celebrity. Now some chose Shakira, another Enrique Iglesias (who, though may be 37-ish, is still lookin' mighty fine), but I, yes I, chose Oscar de la Renta. And honestly, it was the best choice. I got to watch fashion show after fashion show after fashion show... all for homework. Now I would be glad to post the finished product (a movie) for you, but alas, it's in Spanish.

But, going to back to Fashion Week, Oscar de la Renta? Brava brava brava.

But besides the creepy clapping hands with no body, that show was fabulous. And now you may be asking yourself, 'how in the world does she know? Was she at Fashion Week?' But alas, I was not there. Though in fact, I could've there, thanks to a wonderful thing called Youtube. In a nutshell, Youtube had a live feed of Fashion Week, as well as some wonderful wonderful person who posted de la Renta's entire Spring 2012 line.

You're welcome.

Some of my favorite looks? A must.

And I'm not really sure if I like this... but it sure is interesante...

Oscar de la Renta, how I love you.

Shoes do grow on trees

Pretty pictures, no?  God bless Apple and their beautiful products, A's amazing model skills, and T's excellent photography. Told you there'd be more outfit posts! Enjoy!
