Tied in knots


This is a fun outfit I put together last week. The outfit was inspired by the tie which I got at a H&M in Vienna, Austria, as it is already a very strong piece I chose simple, classic black and white as a back drop for the tie. I borrowed the shirt from my roommate, one of the advantages of living with others. And had to look up how to tie a tie on you tube, I am starting to get better at it just need to get more ties!

A Little Late Fashion Break

Dona Kara

School has started my life is so crazy but I love it I am learning how to become a Chemist and I love every minute of it, and living the college life I have always dreamed off. This has meant sacrificing some good things to achieve greater goals. Some of these good things include my fashion blogs, Grey's Anatomy, and Gossip Girl. But on a more exciting note, a few days ago I took a break and saw that people had commented on my last post! I don't know if any of you are still reading but thank you, it made my week.

Now one to the actual post, which is a week late considering it is London fashion week now. New York fall fashion week! For those of you who don't know New York fall fashion week is not fall fashion it is actually designers collections for spring 2010. These shows are the basis of the ready to wear and other lines by the designer. These deigns are then copied, changed, and refined and spread to the general public over time. I learned this two years ago when I first started following fashion shows. It is so much fun to understand were the clothing that you see everyday comes from.

These photos are the pieces and looks that I absolutely loved from New York fashion week.
I did not know she had a line but I liked the simplistic femininity of these dresses.

Love the colors and fabrics of these two.

Thakoon
I like the combination of the asymmetric stripes with a classic dress and fabric.

Rodate
Rodate is a brand created by two sisters, they are true artists.
Risto

Preen

Micheal Kohrs

I think I might try to recreate the look on the right except switch the colors.









For all those who made it this far I hope you enjoyed it, I have another outfit that I want to share with you some time soon, hopefully anyways!
