Fashion Friday- The Sartorialist Love

I have to say, that this week I have been rather uninspired by fashion, and so have nothing new or exciting to say on the matter. Here are some beautiful people from The Sartorialist to brighten up your Friday.

I am in love with this outfit. The hat, the scarf, the colors, what is not to love?21810RLdetail17986Web 200x300 Fashion Friday  The Sartorialist Love

I wish I could fly off to Brazil, for a tropical getaway. I love the earrings, the dress, and that drink looks amazingly refreshing.

Fashion Friday

Yay! Its the first official Friday fashion post.  So for this week I thought I would focus on one of the physical traits that makes someone fashionable.  Their hairstyle.  One of the first things I notice is people’s hairstyles. Nothing makes someone pulled together like a nice ‘do. It is one of those small touches that can really make jeans and a tee look pulled together vs. the jeans and tee look that says I didn’t have anything else to wear. Here are some things to help make you look more pulled together.

The basics:

  • Make sure your hair is brushed and cleaned.
  • If your going to do a ponytail make it look nice, not just hair piled on the top of your head.
  • If your hair is dyed, especially if it is dyed blond, make sure your roots don’t grow out to much.

New Toast Catalogue

Hello! How was your weekend? Hope it was fabulous! Have any of you heard of toast? They are a British clothing store, and I think that they have one of the most beautiful catalogues out there! I was so excited this morning to see that their new Spring/Summer 2010 catalogue is finally up! All of their photos seem to take place somewhere exotic, and are making me dream of taking a vacation to Spain or Mexico. Here are few of my favorite images (they were very hard to choose)!

Intro to new Fashion Column

The last few weeks I have been wondering what makes someone fashionable. Going to Arizona State University, one of the biggest universities in the country, I am surrounded by multitudes of people everyday. I love to people watch, everyday I observe women in my class, walking around campus, and sitting a Starbucks. I’ve noticed that at times there can be  two girls both in jeans, a graphic tee, and sandals. However, one girl look put together and fashionable, and the other girl looks like see has thrown random clothes on. What gives some people the ability to look amazing in jeans and converse, while others just look like they didn’t care?

You all know what I mean, this phenomena doesn’t just happen on campus, just look around your local supermarket.

I hypothesize that these women who look good,have a few constant traits.I want to make a weekly Friday column dedicated to analyzing this phenomena and to figuring out these traits. Could it be one has make-up or their hair-styled while the other one doesn’t, or does it have something to do with personality, or perhaps a combination of both? I will endeavor to find the answer, and hopefully improve my own style at the same time.

Perfume

A couple months ago I came across a web store called I hate perfume via A Cup of Jo. While the name is a little off putting at first,  it is actually a perfume shop with some very unconventional perfume! The scents of the perfumes and their descriptions are so magical! I would love to own some of these one day! Here are a few of my favorites.

Winter 1972- A field of untouched new fallen snow, hand knit woolen mittens covered with frost, a hint of frozen forest & sleeping earth
