It's no surprise my best friend has a similar fascination with the PS1's that I have with Balenciagas. They are practical but the luxurious leather makes them special and anything but boring. I was excited to learn today that for their Cruise '11 collection, they have added a bright green PS1 in a larger size, very similar to a Balenciaga 'work' bag. I can't wait to see more pictures of it, but in the mean time, you can get a similar style of the original PS1 at ASOS!<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-Leather-Twist-Lock-Satchel/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1039287&cid=8730&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Tan"><span id="ctl00_ContentMainPage_ctlSeparateProduct_lblProductTitle" class="product_title">ASOS Leather Twist Lock Satchel, $118.35</span></a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"><br /><br /><br />PHOTO CREDIT: BARNEYS.COM</span>Lissetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030305232293266553noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7733607947027452721.post-13054765554479742432010-06-12T13:50:00.000-07:002010-06-12T13:59:12.274-07:00JEREMY SCOTT 'MICKEY' SUNGLASSES<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy8Z63sCXj5WM4OZo8ReWKu2LAu5-4SOtA4jXy9rPVhqf-gFiZ_LeiFtiiaV5rz109N4STAtRNhmX-4HaSDjG0DbJmaOcFAPLd5nNsSnm4eu3ECLAwJyzwt0lDLqPDcfiiC340OFWiY80G/s1600/Lady+Gaga+and+Beyonce+Jeremy+Scott+for+Linda+Farrow+mickey+mouse+sunglasses.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 199px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy8Z63sCXj5WM4OZo8ReWKu2LAu5-4SOtA4jXy9rPVhqf-gFiZ_LeiFtiiaV5rz109N4STAtRNhmX-4HaSDjG0DbJmaOcFAPLd5nNsSnm4eu3ECLAwJyzwt0lDLqPDcfiiC340OFWiY80G/s400/Lady+Gaga+and+Beyonce+Jeremy+Scott+for+Linda+Farrow+mickey+mouse+sunglasses.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481993880796572866" border="0" /></a><br /><blockquote></blockquote><br /><br />Bleudame.com has made an awesome pair of sunnies very similar to the ones Gaga wears in her video for "paparazzi."

I love that the geniuses at Louboutin decided to pair these black wedges with Silver Hardware. I really think gold accents would have made them look less polished.<br /><br />Bebe has a similar pair but with a few, but significant differences. The wedge is not patent leather but rather espadrille throughout and the chain is significantly less dramatic. My favorite combination for these espadrilles is the Tan leather with Gold hardware .<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446240419&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=282574492709560&bmUID=1258049863230">CLICK here for Chrisitian Louboutin's MACARENA WEDGES</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.bebe.com/bebe-Thea-Chain-Espadrilles/dp/B0031GMBVQ?ie=UTF8&asinSearchPageIndex=25&navAsinList=B00314IAEA%2CB003203KT8%2CB003CYV9R4%2CB003CYX0U8%2CB0031GO37G%2CB003CYTNDG%2CB003CYQZWI%2CB003CYJSSQ%2CB003CYJZE8%2CB003CYRMES%2CB0031GMBMK%2CB0031GMDJ6%2CB0031GGSVA%2CB0031ZVFO6%2CB0031GIG4C%2CB0031XPG8Y%2CB0031GIF3Y%2CB0031XMF2E%2CB003DPCN4A%2CB0031GK9W4%2CB003DPHTHG%2CB0031GK9F6%2CB0031GIDFE%2CB003DPG6KW%2CB00336698U%2CB0031GMBVQ%2CB0031GO52O%2CB0035FD1VW%2CB0035FIP1S%2CB002Y4OGQE%2CB00314FZIE%2CB00319477Y%2CB0035PNTPK%2CB003DPABLM%2CB0035PTED6%2CB0035PNWFW%2CB0035PPUSO%2CB002X6JMDA%2CB002OZ4ZUA%2CB002UZ3L5O%2CB002SHCEWA%2CB002TQ4KNQ%2CB002TQDN5M%2CB002UYJT2E%2CB002OZ8KB0%2CB002PTJ1HC%2CB002STJPTS%2CB002STL2A8%2CB002STL2F8%2CB002STP48O%2CB00265NCPC&node=2227550011&field_browse=2227550011&searchSize=100&navAsinListIndex=0&id=bebe%20Thea%20Chain%20Espadrilles&field_availability=0&searchBinNameList=null&ref=search_results_26&searchNodeID=2227550011&field_launch-date=-1y&searchRank=-product_site_launch_date&searchPage=1&pf_rd_r=0308FWH4P3J5PXZWH304&pf_rd_m=A2FMOXN01TSNYY&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=2227550011&pf_rd_p=495094551&pf_rd_s=search-results">CLICK here for bebe's THEA CHAIN ESPADRILLES</a><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKvfqAa7DwsPs1U4mB2XODmPiHp44umnliPxXKxrkQtD-fFBtf-XqPNWM29VBa7HBHKVLWY4nFoQp76c_sJmRRgdE9KVL7RVX4VjdT2GarFDTmWwpRCOyQ_nqv8fgw6yYbHXHL2rJffJAA/s1600/thea+bebe.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKvfqAa7DwsPs1U4mB2XODmPiHp44umnliPxXKxrkQtD-fFBtf-XqPNWM29VBa7HBHKVLWY4nFoQp76c_sJmRRgdE9KVL7RVX4VjdT2GarFDTmWwpRCOyQ_nqv8fgw6yYbHXHL2rJffJAA/s400/thea+bebe.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481598848634204370" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:78%;">PHOTO CREDIT: SAKSFIFTHAVENUE.COM, BEBE.COM</span>Lissetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030305232293266553noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7733607947027452721.post-65839202678313680102010-06-10T16:49:00.000-07:002010-06-10T17:03:52.358-07:00JEWEL BOX NECKLACE FROM MADEWELL<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqXGxAwA9PBW5EGYQp0dlYxZ76gNMyWLnKCeZINUoDnubnYtL_esXCIHFNlQC5iztiSYnnYIHZQRbB8DFMpHsQIcEh21rvr2-O_bdLFwi1tQlWzngxMF32KQdUchjShAoM-U3SJ7OEVBa5/s1600/madewell.jpeg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 393px; height: 393px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqXGxAwA9PBW5EGYQp0dlYxZ76gNMyWLnKCeZINUoDnubnYtL_esXCIHFNlQC5iztiSYnnYIHZQRbB8DFMpHsQIcEh21rvr2-O_bdLFwi1tQlWzngxMF32KQdUchjShAoM-U3SJ7OEVBa5/s400/madewell.jpeg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481299480539070834" border="0" /></a><br />This piece has a 'Little Mermaid' vibe that's pretty amazing.

The reason? It is overwelming if done with multiple pieces. My suggestion is to follow the same rules you would do with studs and animal prints- keep it one piece per outfit. I have seen it done beautifully in graphic zipper prints on tees, zipper jewelry, and most importantly, shoes. Christian Louboutin's Rodita Zip Platforms are perfect but unfortunately are no longer available in black. You can however pick up Jessica Simpson's "Tansas" Sandal. It has the same zipper strap detail, but Jessica Simpson's design is slightly more of a platform than a stiletto. The buckle at the ankle is also larger larger and the zipper straps are much wider. This could be a good thing because it means it will give your foot more support and your walk more stability.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOx_96MZtKmqfosqTkn8Aj3plPkyJOoAMpRDAO9WTrRvHL7oaMNHdq2K1tuP3JhQPLxt5ZL27MyBXxdeY7vM9LlLmnjBI0FGo2fUXQdtI0dMxP2s8F1Zz13ulRsEYOLM3HpVcAoPJQrGcG/s1600/js+zipper.jpeg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 262px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOx_96MZtKmqfosqTkn8Aj3plPkyJOoAMpRDAO9WTrRvHL7oaMNHdq2K1tuP3JhQPLxt5ZL27MyBXxdeY7vM9LlLmnjBI0FGo2fUXQdtI0dMxP2s8F1Zz13ulRsEYOLM3HpVcAoPJQrGcG/s320/js+zipper.jpeg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481243419284331378" border="0" /></a><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3072428?Category=&Search=True&SearchType=predictivesearch&keyword=jessica+simpson+women%27s+shoes&origin=searchresults">Click here to for our alternate pick!</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">PHOTO CREDIT: NETAPORTER.COM, NORDSTROM.COM</span>Lissetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030305232293266553noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7733607947027452721.post-68413745434198049852010-06-10T10:22:00.000-07:002010-06-10T14:57:37.924-07:00GIVENCHY LARGE NIGHTINGALE<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh48W9m_f3yS5Bx-5UswA7jc5nHMY8Y32oGXL5wo1cZLhE5w4C7yxyPQlPvWi1WzbcGOAVcsjoE7dodZX5U79Yn7enOlN83kp4VDAHKrFxUB5aMYSNmglA_LNK7aQvUIwxSCk3ffAlngpBq/s1600/ashley+olsen.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 274px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh48W9m_f3yS5Bx-5UswA7jc5nHMY8Y32oGXL5wo1cZLhE5w4C7yxyPQlPvWi1WzbcGOAVcsjoE7dodZX5U79Yn7enOlN83kp4VDAHKrFxUB5aMYSNmglA_LNK7aQvUIwxSCk3ffAlngpBq/s400/ashley+olsen.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481201273883033442" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />One of the things that has made the "nightingale" one of Givenchy's most sought after bags is the simplicity and classic nature which makes it timeless. It has been coming back for a few seasons now, in different colors and textures. The Alternative is the Deux Lux Oversized Basic Satchel from Urbanoutfitters. com. It is simple and roomy-two of the most basic words you can use to describe the appeal of the Nightingale. At $58.00, it is significantly less than Givenchy's $2,000+ Old Pepe Nightingale. Whichever one you choose, it is sure to stay in your closet for a long time, and be your "go-to" bag when you need simplicity and SPACE. One of the main, and most important details missing from the budget friendly version is the huge zipper running down the large shoulder strap. If this is the reason it appeal to you, you can get a zipper at a fabric store and crazy glue(my favorite!) it right on. It not only makes your bag unique, but you have the liberty of choosing the tone(color) of zipper(brass, goldtone, silvertone, etc)!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.barneys.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-BNY-Site/default/Link-Product?pid=00505004541387"><br />Givenchy Large Old Pepe Nightingale</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?itemdescription=true&itemCount=80&startValue=1&selectedProductColor=&sortby=&id=18109280&parentid=W_ACC_BAGS&sortProperties=+subCategoryPosition,+product.marketingPriority&navCount=49&navAction=jump&color=&pushId=W_ACC_BAGS&popId=WOMENS&prepushId=&selectedProductSize=">$58 similar version from Urbanoutfitters.com</a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">PHOTO CREDIT: THEFASHIONSPOT</span>Lissetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030305232293266553noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7733607947027452721.post-70596553470515911932010-06-09T18:47:00.000-07:002010-06-09T18:58:35.988-07:00HERVE LEGER CAP-SLEEVE DRESS<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkKB-xEenDzX-IEhBjGVpYET-7dSuC8EGT9slQLx-coRcQSwHgjKjK0aVLLDzlLmjVgETj7smLuzDfuxI3EwrYJ3cPMORQ6cgot3ZXT_05c9wzN3wMM-y7xnvJdyZ-usLMcYDJEbZ_g8tg/s1600/herve+leger.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkKB-xEenDzX-IEhBjGVpYET-7dSuC8EGT9slQLx-coRcQSwHgjKjK0aVLLDzlLmjVgETj7smLuzDfuxI3EwrYJ3cPMORQ6cgot3ZXT_05c9wzN3wMM-y7xnvJdyZ-usLMcYDJEbZ_g8tg/s400/herve+leger.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480957864669947666" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />The great thing about Herve Leger frocks(which I can attest to having tried one on), is the fabulous ability it has that literally "tucks" you in, similar in the way that Spanx do. With a Herve Leger number, there is no need for another LBD or even undergarments. With a price tag of over $700, it is still pricey-even for a piece that will be in your wardrobe forever. A great alternative is Express' Banded cap-sleeve Dress. With a similar Rayon/Spandex fabric(almost identical to Herve's; proportions are slightly different), this is a fantastic choice for under $100 bucks! It is even available in a sultry Christian Louboutin red!<br /><a href="http://www.bcbg.com/herve-leger-cap-sleeve-bandage-dress-5.shtml"><br />Herve Leger Cap-sleeve Bandage Dress</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.express.com/banded-cap-sleeve-dress-27584-22.pro?user_att_value=Email&user_att_name=Interest&Mppg=0&Mcatpn=category&Mpper=3&Mcat=22&Mcatp=cat_2&Mpos=10&Mrsaa=*&Mcatn=Dresses+%26+Jumpsuits&Mpg=SEARCH%2BNAV&Mrsavf=*">Express' version for under $100</a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">PHOTO CREDIT: EXPRESS.COM, BCBG.COM</span>Lissetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030305232293266553noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7733607947027452721.post-57624596082411204722010-06-09T18:25:00.001-07:002010-06-09T18:37:52.452-07:00CHLOË SEVIGNY FOR OPENING CEREMONY<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrEmieSeYXjWGIejbDXwDiEfUFmEkoVXfjRX8yoXYfXc-OsrIjVHyCYhtP6DFJyh_VapVYAd7pAExFTxtDeYqmk1LKajP4CwN_ksruLeI8jSYUZsPY7osQrqyu8MF3HY54sxYUikUl-nxV/s1600/opening+ceremony.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 334px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrEmieSeYXjWGIejbDXwDiEfUFmEkoVXfjRX8yoXYfXc-OsrIjVHyCYhtP6DFJyh_VapVYAd7pAExFTxtDeYqmk1LKajP4CwN_ksruLeI8jSYUZsPY7osQrqyu8MF3HY54sxYUikUl-nxV/s400/opening+ceremony.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480951296909050098" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />These boots are amazing!

They are a great color and the strap will help to keep them in place(a big concern I have with back-less clogs). The fun design on the top of the "sandal" is very cute and reminiscent of a butterfly design which SCREAMS hippie culture circa 1970. I was over the moon when I realized Steve Madden made a very similar version. While they are sans the fabulous suede of the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Miu</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Miu's</span>, they do have buttery nude leather, which I'm equally attracted to.

They are romantic in a very sultry way and can be your one statement making piece in an otherwise mute outfit. Kenneth Lane's 22 carat plated earrings are worth the price because they can be transitioned into the A/W seasons. The great thing about both these pieces is that they both have the teardrop shape which works with all face shapes and is very flattering. An alternative are Forever21's Adorned Rhinestone Earrings. They are available at a phenomenal price, so even if you misplace one, you won't kill yourself over it.<br /><br />As a side note, if you ever misplace one earring(chandeliers work best), you can do what I do and use a little crazy glue to make it into a statement necklace! I will post an instructional post in the near future!<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog_name=FOREVER21&category_name=acc_earrings&product_id=1077456770&Page=all&pgcount=25">Forever 21</a><br /><a href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/67492"><br />Kenneth Jay Lane</a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">PHOTO CREDITS: FOREVER21.COM, NETAPORTER.COM</span>Lissetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030305232293266553noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7733607947027452721.post-42650110670385813942010-06-09T13:46:00.000-07:002010-06-10T16:41:07.731-07:00ALEXANDER WANG COCO DUFFLE<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZTPzUfevzkQ4btjXXnvDICupSlkdXKm-lgXssnoDmsMg-Quf9qMV5NZeIHT1fHNXQzZhTR5yNYsNaP9ZKoajMa-d87s8Np28xSFHfeRLDAjxs53p5onC8cctRWPKHmzjxWHeKHDo4wcRq/s1600/Alexander+Wang+Duffel+Black.png"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 274px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZTPzUfevzkQ4btjXXnvDICupSlkdXKm-lgXssnoDmsMg-Quf9qMV5NZeIHT1fHNXQzZhTR5yNYsNaP9ZKoajMa-d87s8Np28xSFHfeRLDAjxs53p5onC8cctRWPKHmzjxWHeKHDo4wcRq/s400/Alexander+Wang+Duffel+Black.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480880438968154690" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Alexander Wang's "coco" bag has been a huge hit with celebrities. It was first spotted on Mary-Kate Olsen last year. This year, in a new array of colors, and a new detachable shoulder strap, it will no doubt become what the "speedy 30" has been for Louis Vuitton.<br /><br />Here is the link for an alternative. It is by Wetseal.com(not available in stores) and it is only $24! While it does not have the same texture as Wang's original, it certainly carries the appeal of the bullet studded bottom. You can even make it a D.I.Y project and transfer the unique studs onto your favorite leather bag. Either way, I think it is definitely worth the low price!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.wetseal.com/catalog/product.jsp?categoryId=106&subCategoryId=126&productId=34668">Wetseal's Version</a><br /><a href="http://http//www.net-a-porter.com/product/94523"><br /></a><a href="http://www.barneys.com/Rocco%20Shoulder%20Bag/00505005641550,default,pd.html">A.
