More To Come!

Just yesterday I posted a new video here on the blog and on YouTube. It is a follow up video (of pt.1) on fashion apps that I am on a mission to discover. The ones that exist are not reaallly that good but are ok. So I go hunting for the best ones that I can find and then I share them with everyone. =) If there is an app that you guys are searching for but just can’t find, email me or leave a comment and I will search as much as I can for you and post a video up.

XoXo, Ashley<3

H&M- The Garden Collection

This is an inside look at H&M's- The Garden Collection. This is the main Spring Collection for H&M. Check it out and leave your comments..

Luis Vuitton Spring/ Summer 2010

Interesting look for the models. Luis Vuitton went with the afros in his 2010 S/S collection. I don't really know if I'm feeling it. It's kind of throwing me off a bit but I do get what kind of look that he is going for. It is okay but I am not to impressed with this collection. What do you think??

Fashion For Relief - London Runway Show 2010

All proceeds went to charities and to helping Haiti.

Janelle Monae Fashion










All I can say is that the beautiful and talented Janelle Monae looks just as different as her music is. She definitely puts herself out there with her fashion and isn't afraid to just DO IT!

The Many Looks of Nicki Minaj










This so -called "Barbie" has a very interesting style. From her pink hair to her barbie chain.

The True Definition of Art

Art is defined as the creation of beautiful or significant things, the products of human creativity and a superior skill that you can learn by study and practice and observation. However, everyone seems to have their own personal definition of what true art is. Either way, it is creativity.

Quote For The Day

"Speak courteously to those nearest and dearest to you. For courtesy, like oil, keeps the wheels of our relationships turning smoothly."

Do It Yourself: Statement Dress

What You'll Need:

-3 yards of fabric (vintage)

-a tape measure

-scissors, needle, and thread

-a white t-shirt

-felt stick on letters (that you can sew, iron or stick on to make any saying you want on your shirt)



Step #1
Cut the fabric to make the skirt of the dress. For width, measure your waist and multiple by 3. Then cut your fabric at the length you want.


Step #2

Using a needle and thread, make a running stitch across the top of the fabric (with each stitch about a one-quarter inch in length) When you finish, pull the stitch to shirr the shirt.


Step #3

Trim the bottom of the t-shirt so that it hits your natural waist. Sew the skirt's waist to the t-shirts bottom. Stick the letters across the front of the shirt to spell out your message.

..And there's your dress!!

Katy Perry: Gotta Love Her Style!

Guess who I spotted on the cover of this months issue of NYLON magazine? Thats right! The lovely fashion bomb Katy Perry!








The great thing about Katy Perry is that she knows when to turn it up and when to turn it down! That's important in fashion because that draws the line between cute fashion and crazy fashion!
