It's Chanel-Like...

Stylista-

It is no secret that I've been obsessing for the Classic Chanel chain purse!!!

I SWEAR to the fashion heaven I will own one...

But I can across some Chanel-like handbags for the fashionista, stylista, or recessionista who will never drop 2grand on a handbag!  I found some options from Aldo and Wet Seal.

                                              Aldo                                                     Wet Seal


It's not exactly your Chanel- but it will do....
If I had to choose I would go woth the Wet Seal version.

For me- I am going to save up and Cop the BIG C! I mean there are just some things you need the REAL thing- no inspired options!!!

"Green The Color of Hope"- Lagerfeld

Morning Stylistas....

Last week I explored the red color on my nails, now this week I want to try something new, something fierce, and also fashionable.

I was going thru this month's issue of Vogue yesterday and read this great article on the "Green Movement".

This is why I love this industry- especially behinds the scenes... It's amazing to see how beautiful clothing, fabrics, and colors evolve from something else. How Peter Philips (Global creative director of Chanel make-up) took Lagerfeld's Jade reactions and created a capsole collection of Jade nail polish called - The Jade collection ... Shown on the models on the Chanel Fall/Autumn 2009 Catwalk in Paris.

Imagine All Black everything with great green pop nails!!

Poppin!

I hear there is a waiting list already for the green hue... Wheeewww....

This highly anticipated hue drops on October 9th. I'm going to go down to Bloomies and get the word and put my name down on the list.

I love how High End makes the call of the trends and it trinkles down to the lower brands... not saying those lower brands are less important- but its a chain of command people!!! It's not coincidence at all!!!

Remember that scene in Devil Wears Prada when Miranda (Meryl Streep) ripped Andy (Anna Hathaway) a new asshole- when they were discussing the Cerulean Blue sweater she had on.... Same concept.

Watch it again here just in case you missed what that scene was all about the first time.

I'm going to try this hue and let you guys know how I like it!

What you think?

Style Inspiration: Mixing Metallics

Hey People!

I was looking through my jewelry and caught a glimpse of one of my gold bangles dangling next to my silver necklace and thought it looked good together... I thought mixing metallics would be pretty cute. So I decided to give you guys some weekend inspiration, whether you are hosting a small girls only cocktail party, or heading to dinner for a first date, or just hitting the club... check out what i put together through polyvore.

Side note: Gold, silver, black, and charcoal... Great color combo.




Style Inspiration by SwagGirlChee featuring Halston


Joining these color ranges and highlighting your nails and lip with Red makes for a great weekend outfit. Don't forget to keep your color story going and mix and match your silver and gold jewels as well.

Let's discuss this fit:

The Halston pant with a drape and harem detail are soo in right now. I finally tried on a pair and I actually loved how they fit. *I purchased a jumper with draping and harem detail- i will take pics once I rock it* This silhouette might not work for everyone, but don't be fashion closed minded... try it out :)

Adding a long sequin coat add glitz and glam! I fell in love with the 3.1 Phillip Lim coat. With your pants you can add a sequin blazer oppose to a long coat- whatever works. It will still add great spice.

A great graphic tee to tone down the outfit, because your sequin coat (or blazer) will do all the talking. Maybe a drapy tee. You can find this kind of tee anywhere, from H&M to Forever 21 to American Apparel.

Metallic silver shoes to add shine to your grey outfit.

Well here you have it.... some Mix Match Metallic inspiration.

Enjoy your weekend guys.... remember don't leave your cup unattended... always have a designated driver.. and look fabulous!!!

PS: Fellas... once I master my illustrator skills I will get you some style inspiration shots! :)

Until Next Time
