Here comes Valentines....

The closer we get to February the more I feel the romance of Valentine's approaching. What could be more fun than finding that some little something to wear on that or any romantic evening? I adore this little ensemble of dusky reds and barely there pinks. The lingerie itself comes from Hips and Curves and will only set you back $45. Don't mind the shoes, they're just a fantasy of mine. A $669 fantasy. I absolutely suggest a swing by Hips and Curves, they have some amazingly steamy pieces at great prices and in all the right sizes.

Til next time ;) Noir

Sweater Love

Its that time of year: the transition from sweaters to tanks is creeping up on us, so while we still have time to wrap up in some cozy comfort and sip our tea or coffee or chai, I'd like to share with you some of my favorite sweater looks.

Don't Dream It, Be It

I was in a dreamy kind of mood today so I decided to create something fun and flirty. With absolutely no regard to attainability. With this set its all about attitude. This dress caught my eye immediately but on closer inspection I realized there wasn't necessarily anything extraordinary about it, its the model's attitude that gives it an edge. Any garment can be fun, funky and trendy, if you make it yours with your personality and accessories. I'd throw on this jeweled, feathered belt and carry an orange brass knuckles clutch from Alexander McQueen. then for the kicker i'd add in these spiked pumps. So don't let a basic or plain garment bring you down, funk it up with some accessories and your attitude. Don't just dream it. Do it. Be it. Until next time ladies ~ Noir

If I had styled Adele

Hello all, welcome to my Monday midnight posting (don't worry, that's not going to be a routine thing.....hopefully)! Just for funsies I decided to create my version of Adele's red carpet look from the Golden Globes 2013. For those of you who did not see my previous post, I wasn't quite happy with her look that evening. It wasn't a disaster by any means but still I yearned for more fashion, more glamour! I'll go ahead and say again I love Adele and I love Burberry! This is my little spin on what I think she would have looked fabulous in. I stayed with a LBD because I know she loves her black dresses...evidence:

 



So I figured it was best to stick to black. I chose this dress for its details and overall look. I like that its short and that the sleeves are 3/4. It doesn't look too young but doesn't look old either. The tiger stripes help keep it young. I love how the black on black of the bodice with the sleeves showing a hint of skin through the material. The skirt has a bias drape that is very flattering. I thought it would have been nice to see her with a more laid back hair style, something a bit undone and romantic. not necessarily with a rose. I picked the booties with gold stones for a bit of edge as well as the gold and red Alexander McQueen Union Jack bag. The kicker is the earrings. I almost fell over when I saw them. Well, not them actually...the price! $20,000!

There you have it: If I styled Adele. Now I have to get some sleep. Early morning tomorrow. XO ~Noir
