I can't help it....

I love Delia's! Delia's was the first store that really got me into fashion. Their clothes always are of the utmost quality, and are reasonably priced for my budget. Although I have moved onto my H&M, I will always return to Delia's.

My goal this year is to wear more reds, blues, skirts, and dresses. I want to look less casual, and more put together. Here are my picks from my wonderful Delia's:



To me, this is the perfect spring coat. It is not stuffy, but light and sophisticated.



I need this dress.



I love the floral pattern on this dress. Some floral patterns make you look like a hippie, but these flowers are so Americana in their red and blue.



Although jeans are not part of my spring budget, I am really into these pockets. Plus, they're called "Blair Low-Rise Straight Leg. Coincidence?



Purple rocks. The color of royalty!

How Blair Waldorf has inspired me: Part I

Blair Waldorf is the best character on tv right now. She has the best fashion sense on Gossip Girl, is ridiculously stylish and the uber of queen bees! SO, I'm starting a new series, of how Blair Waldorf is inspiring my wardrobe. This first part is headbands.

Now, my love for wide headbands has gone back since about a year ago, but Blair Waldorf has made them even more fashionable. Here is a montage of different headbands that I am in love with; some of them have been worn by Blair Waldorf on the show:












The below headband I bought for $7.90 at H&M. It was inspired by Blair Waldorf and Maire Antoinette. I photographed it on my sister.

I love Posh and Marc and those shoes

Fashion Rule #1-- Think before you sweat(pants)

I decided that i am going to start my list of fashion rules today. Since this is the first time I am seriously fashion blogging, I think that this is a good way to start it off.

First, let me tell you about my fashion rules. I am not so sure if fashion rules are a universal concept. Before I buy something, I first see if it complies with my fashion rules. Fashion rules are a bunch of laws about what to wear and what not to wear. Although sometimes I want to break the fashion rules, I almost never do. In the end, by following my fashion rules I know I will find myself, happy, healthy, and most important, more fashionable.

Everybody should have their own set of fashion rules that they make up to guide them along when shopping. Here is the first one:

Fashion Rule #1- Think before you sweat(pants)

Ahh...sweat pants. In middle school, I was forced to wear sweat pants twice every week for my dance class...I remember looking into the paneled mirrors in the dance room, and hating the awful sweatpants I was forced to wear. Needless to say, ever since I graduated middle school, I wear sweatpants about once every month.

To me, sweatpants and flannel pajama pants tell the world that you have given up on life. And since you have given up on life, you might as well be comfortable. h, but true. I only wear sweatpants if I know nobody I know will see me. And if I do wear sweatpants, I only wear velour sweatpants , because they have a touch of glamour to them. Here is an example of sweatpants I will condone:




Solid velour wide leg pant
Orig. 29 Sale $19 at Victoria's Secret






Juicy Couture
Wings Velour Hoodie
Price: $148.00


Juicy Couture
Wings Velour Pants
Price: $128.00

These two sweatsuits are from Victoria's Secret and Juicy Couture. As far as sweatsuits go, they make fairly glamorous ones. Victoria's Secret is always in style, and Juicy Couture is usually the sweatsuit of choice for most teens. I make sure that it doesn't say a brand on the butt. Now that's a trend I can't wait to play out.

SPRING footwear

Ok, I know it's a bit early to be thinking about spring...ok, a LOT early. But that hasn't stopped me! The new york city cold has made me dream of warm, flowery days, where you don't need to bundle up with scarves, hats and gloves. Here is the footwear that I desire for the spring:

Quilted Velvet Ballet Flat in vintage wine

Price: $34.50

Now: $9.99

While shopping at the mall yesterday with the numerous gift cards I received for christmas, I came across these flats in aeropostale. My look has begun to be inspired by Blair Waldorf, so that means preppy, red, bows, and FLATS! Plus, my glamorous side pulls me toward the quilted.

Champion mosaic slip on

$44.99

You might have seen these in the February issue of Teen Vogue. I instantly fell in love with them. This spring, I want lots of light and airy clothing, and the flowery print of the slip-ons would be the perfect shoe to go with them!

Juicy Couture

Carmen Thong Sandal

Price: $55.00

I am really into pink and charms right now, so these flip-flops would be a must for summer. They have that wonderful glamorous feel to them! However, since there is no Juicy Couture near me, I probably will settle for something like this:

Sunbathe pink multi

Steve Madden

Price:$24.95 marked down to $9.99

BCBGirls Women's Fun Flip-Flop

Style No. : 126337



$29.95
