Jeremy Scott for Adidas

These shoes are absolutely amazing and I live to see Jeremy's new designs for Adidas every season.  I wish I could manage to get my hands on a pair of them, but they sell out so quickly.  The prices range from $100 to $300.  I think it would be completely worth it.  Here are some of his most recent designs.

Camilla Belle

Celebrity style this week is horrible.  I mean horrible in the sense of too tight, too loose, horrible colors, ugly dresses, a complete nightmare.  However, Camilla Belle always seems to shine in her fashion choices.  She always has dresses that fit, have interesting colors, are appropriate for the occasion, and best of all, she takes fashion risks.  She is quite the fashionista.  Here are her two best looks from this past week.  

Sorry I have not posted too much this week.  I have finals and a ton work to do.  I will definitely post more in the quickly approaching summer!

A-Morir

If you are like me and enjoy wearing slightly ridiculous things on occasion, then this is the post for you.  I stumbled upon this site a-morir.com and they design glasses and accessories for the stars.  We are talking some Lady Gaga glasses, which of course are incredibly original, and in my eyes gorgeous.  Their glasses are very pricey, but a few may be good for a d.i.y. project this summer.  I love this site, it is simply amazing.  Enjoy yourself.

3.1 Phillip Lim Transformable Sleeveless Top

I find it funny to look in my sketchbooks from when I was little and see all of the things I created to find that they have been created.  Apparently, I was years ahead of my time.  The latest creation is this sleeveless top by 3.1 Phillip Lim.  The shirt transforms into a bag; how incredibly convenient?   I love multi-functional clothing, like a shirt that can be worn backwards and inside out, or worn as a skirt.  I like to get use out of my clothes.  I usually do not post too much about Phillip Lim, as I am not a very big fan of his minimalism and futuristic style, but the man seriously creates amazing things.  This is one of the things that are completely worth sharing.  You can buy the top from lagarconne.com.  I want to make one, plus it would be cheaper!

 -This one below is my favorite!

Number Four From the Top!

I get excited about the little things in life.  This is one of those moments.  I googled "Meet Raf Simons," and my post is the fourth link from the top.  This is probably not a big deal but I am still happy.

 -Yep thats me!

Scarlett Johansson in Versace

This dress has such a different shape that compliments Scarlett's physique.  It is a sexy, well fitted dress that is classy.  I like how it is not revealing either.  Perfection!

Meet Raf Simons for Dior

Meet Raf Simons, the new creative director for Dior.  Many of you may know, John Galliano (previous creative director of Dior) was fired over a year ago for anti-semetic comments.  After a considerable amount of time Dior has come to the conclusion of Raf Simons.  Raf Simons worked as creative director at Jil Sander for the past six years.  Sander decided to return to the label, thus making the transition to a new job easier for Simons.  I have to wonder if the transition will be easy, or if we will find a new side to Dior.  I have to admit I am partial to the extreme and theatrical work of Galliano.  His presentations of clothes were modern, girly, yet classic designs which were always unexpected and fresh.  I enjoy any designer who is able to immurse themselves completely into their work and take on a character to truly make a connection.  I look forward to what Raf Simons has to offer, but will also miss John Galliano.  I am happy to say John Galliano is still showing his personal line.  I disagree with his behavior which led to his downfall, but still, I love his designs.  There is a great article with a little more information at http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/.
