The world of fashion is one that I never wish to visit. I wish to live there instead. An outsider’s view is tainted by flashbulbs and glitter. On the inside you can see the industry without its makeup on…

All right everyone, don't you hate how every season you have to buy a whole new wardrobe even though all the old stuff still fits!?!? Here are some items that you should splurge on because they never go out of style.

1. Basic Tee's and Camisoles (cap, 3/4, tanks, and long sleeves + v, scoop, and boat neck)

Sew I guess this means I have a lot to do....

I went down to Vogue Fabrics in Evanston last weekend and bought some great textiles. I found a great black and purple suiting, an adorable silky red and black print, and some interesting crotched-esk rose cotton. I'm looking forward to a Thanksgiving break of sewing, Taylor Swift songs, pumpkin pie, and Project Runway reruns....oh, and more sewing. Wish me luck, I got a dress, a skirt, and a sweater to whip up in four days....I can totally do it! I'll post pics soon :-)

Brava Annalynne McCord

Some may criticize this divas attire for the People Choice Award, but I think Annalynne McCord brought a whole new spin on menswear chic to the red carpet yesterday. Her interpretation, simple and obvious. I'm digging the denim skinny pant and the boxy white shirt. The tie adds a formal touch, and the red glitter heels take the look from masculine to daring and sexy. I think this look is spot on. Who says only guys can wear a shirt and tie on the red carpet? Isn't it time for ladies to set outside this idea that a skirt or dress is their only formal option?

Simply fabulous
