Imagine a world where price doesn't matter, clothing is unlimited and designers are begging left and right to get you into their designs. A time where fashion is always right at your finger tips and the world is waiting for you to play dress up all around the streets of New York. If you are anything like me you have already fallen into a deep swoon for this is what it is like to be a respected and well known Fashion Editor. Their creative power is endless and nonetheless inspiring. In honor of the ruthless end of this horrid summer, I ceased some of a Fashion Editors power and created a staple Fall outfit. Now, since I couldn't choose which bag I liked more I dropped the monogamist bullshit and decided that I didn't have to. I could use both! The  Crimson Michael Kors Ostrich leather Gia tote will be for day and the Kate Spade cobalt ostrich feather clutch for night. Perfecto! Problem is, once again, solved.

Savor Summer & Fete Fall with Theodora & Callum

There is no question that Full Picture PR knows how to put on a great show. From Victorias Secret Fashion Show to Vitamin Water Campaigns it's no wonder they are so successful. Last night they threw a fabulous rooftop event at the James Hotel in Soho where we celebrated Theodora & Callum's (@TheodoraCallum) new Fall Collection which gave me a chance to mingle with talented bloggers, Editors and of course their PR girls. It was definietly a night to remember sipping on champagne and sorbet and trying all the wonderful bit sized treats, not to mention the new collection of scarves which seems to keep getting better!  

I'm wearing a Vintage Ann Taylor Skirt, vintage belt, Michael Kors blouse, Steve Madden heels and  of course my favorite Theodora & Callum Pink Multi Ikat Tie All Scarf

Fabulous!

Stop, Shop and go broke with Alaïa

As much as I need and MUST stop shopping and make an effort to save money, it's hard to NOT justify spending money on a pair of marvelous suede black thigh high boots that are 65% off at the OUTNET. Did I mention they're Azzedine Alaïa and are only $915, down from $2,615!? Hello! It literally kills me with every bit of effort I put forward in order to prioritize my self control with self pleasure and luxurious desires. Not to mention I could rationalize a bit with a few justifications on my end. Let me count the ways.

1.)As summer starts to settle down, rain falls and soon the leaves will follow. Every fashionista knows that a pair of suede tall boots is a must in the city of New York. No matter the weather, one must adorn themselves in the most chicest way possible. 

2.)The boots will pay for themselves by the end of the winter! At $915 a pop, if I wore them everyday starting September 1st, by the end of the year they would be paid off. Ha try telling that to my mom when I tell her I bought a pair of shoes instead of paying for rent.

3.) Last but certainly not least: Alaia is a God-one that any dedicated fashionista would sacrifice their life savings for, am I right? 

Nevertheless when it comes down to it, I'm still young and support myself so unless I want to go broke and live in these gorgeous pair of thigh boots for the rest of my life, paying rent wins by common sense. Do you see what fashion can do to ones moral obligations? I love it. Now someone please hurry up and buy them before I give away my card number and sign my life away to the thought of the black suede hugging my legs. My feet are becoming quite lonely. Boo. Well, 'sigh' At least I know someone will be enjoying their company. xoxo

Walking around New York City without a purpose in a fabulous pair of heels is about as impractical as wearing your new aubergine bedazzled Prada bag to the gym. However, we do it, over and over again. Why? Because we like to feel beautiful and fabulous no matter what time of day or occasion it may be. I for one would give own arm for a pair of Christian Louboutins or the newest, trendiest handbags straight from the runway! I don't give a hoot if anyone objects to this public display of Glamour-it's not a crime. Some would argue that there should be a law that require people to follow the parisian way of living: Everyday is dress up day. Where going for a single cup of coffee with girlfriends is reason enough to put on a cocktail dress, diamonds and a crystalized pair of stilettos. Case in point (see photo below).

Anyways, there is plenty of time to ramble after I've revealed my favorite colors of the season: Crimson Red and a beautiful Aubergine Purple. These colors are just as captivating as the very first snow fall or when the trees begin to color the streets with their fallen leaves. It's the only thing that seems to catch everyones attention and the city stops to stare. Take note: Aubergine and Crimson...hot hot hot for Fall.

A very Marchesa (MOCK)Wedding

I think I caught the modern Bride gene disease!

I don't know what it is about this time of year that always gets me thinking about weddings. In all honesty, just the thought of getting married at this point in my life sends shivers down my spine and gives me anxiety that could surely cause some type of stroke. However, lately-against all my better judgment-the thought of finding the perfect, most fabulous wedding gown and coordinating bridesmaids dresses has been more appealing than ever! Now, maybe it's the dress part that excites me? God knows I would never turn down an opportunity to turn down a dress up session. But why wedding dresses? That can't be the only thing....Pinterest! Yes, Pinterest and the thousands upon thousands of brilliant wedding ideas and dress options. Never ending pins about weddings and bridal parties, blah, blah, blah. It consumes you, it really does!  
Another grand factor in my bridal gene disease is the reality that everyone around me is engaged. So happy for them but with all the talk about wedding planning and showers, my thoughts are all out-of-wack! Suddenly I find myself imagining what MY dress would look like IF I would ever chose to go down that path...woah okay, I'm stopping right there before I get too far ahead of myself.
Anyways! To all those fabulous ladies who are just like me but find themselves with a ring on their finger and want nothing less than a one of a kind, fabulous wedding, I have put together a 'wedding glamour guide' (relating strictly to the bridal party dresses. Any other advice should not come from me.)  I came up with 4 amazingly chic, luxurious and fashion-editorial-worthy wedding gown and bridesmaid dress combos. Not to my surprise, Marchesa was the leading contendor in my dress search for I truly believe that anything Keren Craig and Georgina Chapman touches turns to pure gold. No fairytale wedding is complete without a gorgeous Marchesa gown.
Through this bridal gene disease, I've realized that if I were to EVER get married it would be about as high-fashion and glamorous as fashion can get. Anna Wintour and all of WWD will be in the front pew! To each his own.

POLISHED SUAVE
Having a contemporary wedding with a traditional vibe is like having Vodka on the rocks with a twist. The combination is beautiful, elegant, effortless and deadly. The pop of color in the bridesmaids dress is where the look breaks away from traditional and into high-fashion suave.

CLASSIC LUXE
I love the idea of having long non-traditional bridesmaid dresses. The goal is not to take away from the bride, however why not make the whole wedding party look and feel fabulous and chic?! Think of the wedding photos...gorgeous.

ECLECTIC CHIC 
**Absolute Fave**
Since weddings are not, and never have been, my thing I love the idea of going totally out-of-the-box and choose dresses as I would if I were styling for a Modern Bride Vogue Editorial shoot. The dress is out of this world and the bridesmaids will look fierce and fabulous in a dress that they could wear for a lifetime. This is a total ME wedding. I die.

HOLLYWOOD GLAMOUR
Having a fairy tale wedding is something every girl dreams of. Who doesn't want to look and feel like a princess on their special day?! My only thing is...if I were to have a wedding like that, the more glitz and glam the better. Mission accomplished...I'm in love with this combo!
