Shoegasms!

By

Yesterday on twitter I asked whether people wanted to see an outfit post or shoe post today. More people said shoes, so here it is! These are the latest additions to my shoe wardrobe.

First, the Agent Provocateur “Katie” heels in black patent. These were a “pre-xmas” gift. Let me quickly say how much I love when a man knows your taste or pays attention to what you’re admiring. I can’t get over how beautiful these are. Simple yet so sexy. Get them here.

Second, these Helmut Lang heels arrived today from New York. I bought these to celebrate the end of final exams. So luxurious, deep rich black snakeskin and beautiful ties. You can tie them in diff ways too. The pictures do these no justice! They are so much more amazing in real life.

Let me know if you have any shoes you are loving at the moment! Or let me know what shoes you’ll be wearing this holiday season or what you plan to get in 2010!

Rodarte Look

By

Rodarte and Target collaborated for a collection that looks gorgeous but doesn’t come in many sizes, so I figured I would put together an outfit to show you can create a similar look using different pieces. I decided to do the tulle skirt+denim jacket look. I feel like a cowgirl ballerina!

Also, check out my Jeffrey Campbell “Ann” boots. These were professionally altered to look more like the Ann D’s—basically the shaft of the boot was cut a little. I love them much more this way! You may remember I posted these a long time ago, but I had to sell them because they were too big. Found them again and I love them so much, I can’t stop wearing them!

Skirt: “Tripp” brand fr/ Torrid, Top: City Chic, Jacket: ASOS, Boots: JC

I didn’t get a great shot of this beautiful top, but check back because in one of my next posts I’ll be showing this and other Chic Chic clothing (like, some amazing jeans) I’ve bought recently!

P.S. I’m back from exams and there should be more posts now! Love my readers. Thank you!

High-Waisted Heaven

By

I love these high-waisted trousers. I’m sure many of you have heard that only skinny women can rock this style. Not only do I disregard this “rule” as a size 16/18 but I choose to wear high-waisted, tapered, harem-esque pants. In order to balance this look out, I added a simple top with just a little volume in the sleeves. This style of trousers might tend to make you look shorter than you are, so a good pair of high heels are essential. I love this look because rather than looking frumpy, the pants look a bit va-va-voom. Tell me what you think in the comments.

Pants: Evans (found on ebay), Top: H&M, Heels: Dries Van Noten

P.S. I hope you aren’t getting bored of my DVN heels, I just love them so much, they are getting all the attention lately.

Also, I think the pants look a little funny in the straight-on pic, but they look better in real life! Be sure to check out my video below if you haven’t already. Thanks!

Fatshionable Video Update

By

I am a bit unsure what role videos can play in the blog, but having received some requests, I made this intro video. I was nervous, lol. Tell me what you think. Colors look a bit dull, but this was my first attempt! If you have ideas for videos, feel free to comment here. Alternatively, feel free to use this post for general requests. Thanks for visiting my blog!
