live from the runway

Hi guys, If you're not in New York or attending the shows, you can still watch them live! Very cool, right? Maybelline is streaming Mercedes-Benz S/S 2012 Fashion week until Sept 15th. Watch here! Pretty amazing. :-)

style nostalgia: grunge

i’m one to indulge in a little nostalgia and 90s grunge holds a special place in my heart. riot gurrlls. sonic youth. the end of glamazons. the waif kate. anti-establishment. 

plaid was all over the FW2011 runways (again) and for some (me), it never left. although this time, its a bit more polished and with less angst. i'm feeling this moment. :-)

dvf: she's kind of my idol

It's a pleasure to share this amazing video that features someone I admire: the one and only, Diane von Furstenberg. Click here to watch. I hope it gives you inspiration and insight and makes you feel empowered.  She discusses her career path while emphasizing the following:

• believe in your voice, always be true to yourself
• when it’s bullshit it remains bullshit - when it’s authentic and real, it will work
• women were born to multi-task, we’ve been having our period and pretend like nothing’s wrong since the beginning of time. ;-)

This interview is from Wednesday's Fashion and Beauty Blog Conference. Check out the full live stream of the conference here. Have an amazing day!
