more visible in the ny social scene, rachel roy has emerged as my own personal style icon. her style is young, fresh, quirky, bold yet charming and fun. her design line bearing her name is a true testament to her fashion flair and panache.

it’s refreshing to see celebrities don preppy duds in place of sweaty gym outfits, torn jeans and flipflops where they’re always paparrazzi-captured in. it took one party at the hamptons to get them pastel-colored and got cleaned up pretty good. i hardly recognized chloe!

“chocolate is the new beauty classic. warm, rich tones make you look polished without being overdone.” - bobbi brown.
i so agree. even if they say that a dark brown lip shade add years to your actual age, leave it to bobbi to create a lip palette duo featuring a brown-toned hue matched with a layering gloss. eye shadow colors are a pretty champagne truffle shimmer as well as chocolate and bone eye shades. finish off the look with a crimson, cranberry blush and your set for fall. the face is dramatic, clean and classic!
ever since i found my favorite malt shade of lip shimmer from bobbi, i have been a loyal fan.

anorexic or just plain skinny, keira knightly simply walks off unaffected with a skirt transformed into a tube dress. or is it a creative approach to a strapless tent dress? whatever it is, it looks cute on her and it does give an illusion of a little additional weight to her rather stick frame. but that belt is barely hanging on and her chest is cinched to death!
do you wear short shorts underneath? or you can even match it with a pair of leggings. i bet she was witnessing the hellish hot weather we’ve had lately, hence the breezy airy dress. she woke up sweating, jumped in the shower and decided - i’ll wear a skirt today, as a tube dress!
leave it to the leading scrawny, underweight nymphets in hollywood to make outrageous fashion statements, including keira here. i’m sure somewhere sometime, this little number will resurface in yet another lean scraggy body hoping to set the trend!
for all we know, it’s some designer piece freebie keira unloaded from last night’s party loot! does anyone recognize the dress? cute on her, huh?

other than owning a pair of long endless legs - my other dream is to wake up in the morning, pull clothes out of my closet and manage to gather an outfit that will look effortlessly chic yet so put-together. i hate to struggle at night thinking what to wear for the next day aiming to avoid a serious crime of trying too hard. i found these two shots of party hearty girls of ny who both oozed with chic elegance. photos courtesy of style.com.
i guess, that’s why there are stylists for people who do not want to complicate their lives with adding yet another stressful decision making task, of asking themselves - “what do i wear today?”, on top of life’s pressing issues and the world’s hardest problems.
what’s more trendy than your own personalized stationary capturing your own style and image.
here’s a sample fancy fax cover sheet you can create for a minimal fee at design-her gals :
imagine yourself walking inside an enormous closet full of designer clothes, shoes and handbags at easy disposal to you, then stepping into a salon being pampered and having your hair done and make-up touch ups. finally, having a snapshot of yourself and forever stamped into colorful personalized fun stationary - a true testament to a stylish fashionista! here’s a sample e-card you can send out a friend for free!
thanks toni for the link!
i wish i can stop. i wish the inspiration to create halts. the momentum should be interrupted. but no, it proceeds. it lingers and searches for a more creative venue to further annotate events and by-products of my insatiable mind.
the daily chronicle show is composed to illustrate my raw visions and evoke a more enamored passion for writing as juvenile as i can be. so, don’t take me seriously.
