i'm not sure if the place i am in, is home. each hour, each day, each year. i've become a creature of habit. cigarettes and owl like behavior, i have lost myself somewhere. Along the pages of books? Each collecting dust, pages underlined, annotated. Some characters more important then others. I've learned to be in my bare skin, letting my hands run against the skin of my body, the goosebumps on my breast. Waving my arms in the rolling smoke that passes through my fingers, and stains my skin with an all familiar musk. Let us dance! For I am the love child. I'll wear my three dollar vintage pumps, let my dress reach my knees, and my leather jacket hug my curves. I'm real! I'm here! I'm screaming for a revelation of love.

lets talk fall fashions

2009-10-23T21:51:00.000-07:00

I spent time on trendspotting and style websites, looking through endless magazines, walked through some great stores, observed the people on the streets to find what I believe are the top fall fashions. So I'm going to give you a run down of the top fall fashions and how you can incorporate them in your everyday life.

GRUNGE IS BACK LADIES AND GENTLEMAN!

-Leather has hit runways and in a big way. I've seen this mostly in cropped leather jackets, boots, heels and accessories. Beautifully shown in this William Rast outfit: 023m.jpg

-Plaid has also made a comeback. Marc by Marc Jacobs graced the runway with his beautiful fall collection showing this wonderful plaid dress: 00380m.jpg

WHO SAYS THE EIGHTIES EVER DIED?

-The eighties are making another comeback. Think shoulder pads, shiny, metallic, more leather and party dresses. A wonderful example is Balmain's party dress: 079m.jpg

THINGS I AM SEEING ALOT OF

-Thigh high boots are IN IN IN!

-Fur

-Chunky stilettos

-Lots of black

-Wide legged jeans

-Big and bold accessories

Leave love and questions, if any.
