Trend Alert: Embellished T-Shirts!

Trend Alert, fashionistas! The next big thing for the Fall is... Embellished T-shirts! Trust me when I say, if you haven't already seen them popping up everywhere, you will really soon! I recently purchased a few embellished t-shirts so I can prance into Fall sporting this fabulous trend.
One of my favorites is by Ellen Tracey- this burnt orange color is spot-on with the trendy colors for Fall. The lovely and delicate beaded golden detailing really makes this shirt stand out. I can't wait to pair it with a chunky sweater, skinny jeans, and over-the-knee boots this Fall.


Another shirt I adore is by J Crew. This green color, like burnt orange, is spot-on with the color trends for Fall. The beaded detailing is so nicely done, it would like great on its own or underneath a sweater.


Lastly, who couldn't love this t-shirt from J Crew?! It is one of my favorite shirts of all time: It encompasses so many trend at once- animals and embellishments! How could you resist this fabulous sparkling zebra?! J Crew is a fabulous place to go for more stylish embellished t-shirts You can also find this trend at lots of department stores, so be on the look-out!

Trend Alert- Gray Nail Polish

Get out that nail polish remover, fashionistas, gray nails are the new hot trend for this season! This look is perfect on either fingers or toes, and works great in varying shades of gray. This color is so edgy, sophisticated, and beautiful. 
YSL in "Tuxedo Gray"
Some perfect gray polishes to experiment this trend with are OPI in “Sheer Your Toys”, YSL La Laque Long Lasting Nail Lacquer in “Tuxedo Gray”, and China Glaze Nail Laquer in “Recycle”. 
China Glaze in "Recycle"
I love the gray polish trend because it is still edgy, but is not as harsh and severe as black fingers can look. This is the perfect color for this season, so trust me and give it a shot- I promise you will adore it!

Stay Fabulous xoxo

New OPI Burlesque Collection!


I have to have my fingers and toes painted at all times, so I am always looking out for new trends and fun color polishes to add to my collection. OPI has teamed up with another movie to create a nail polish collection, as they previously have with Shrek and Alice in Wonderland. OPI's newest collection was inspired by the upcoming movie Burlesque
My favorite type of polish is definitely OPI- they have every color polish you could ever dream of and are always coming out with new and fun collections. OPI polishes are of exceptional quality (this is almost always the polish they use in nail salons). You get a wonderfully long staying power out of these polishes (especially when using a base and top coat); They stay perfect for quite some time without chipping.
Above are all of the colors that will be in the collection- the OPI Burlesque collection is available in two groups, to separate the shimmers from the glitters. 
The sparkle collection is as follows:
Bring On The Bling - A fun glittering gold
Glow Up Already! – Sparkle green
Extra-va-vaganza! – A bold orange glitter
Simmer & Shimmer –Blue glitter
Show It & Glow It! – Gorgeous purple/fuchsia glitter
Sparkle-icious - Multi-color glitter fabulousness



The shimmer collection is as follows:
Rising Star – Lustrous glimmering gold
Take the Stage – A warm orange spotlight shimmer
The Show Must Go On! – A deep pink shimmer  with hints of gold
Let Me Entertain You – Shining fuchsia glimme
Ali's Big Break – A glowing red shimmer
Tease-y Does It –Stunning burgundy shimmer

I am beyond obsessed with the colors Rising Star, The Show Must Go On! and Take the Stage. I can't wait to purchase them when the collection comes out at the beginning of November! What do you think? Will you be purchasing any colors from OPI's new Burlesque collection?

Verdict= FABULOUS! (5/5 stars!)

Want It Wednesday!


For this week's want it Wednesday item I have decided to go with a boot that is totally 'bananas', as Rachel Zoe would say- Yes, I am dying for the Rachel Zoe for Brian Atwood Chain-Back Over-the-Knee Boot.
On a recent episode of the Rachel Zoe project, one of my favorite shows, Rachel was seen in a meeting with the fabulously chic shoe designer Brian Atwood. They were planning a shoe that would be inspired/designed by Rachel for the Brian Atwood shoe line.
The shoe collaboration has been completely designed- The thigh high boot came out as a part of the Brian Atwood shoe collection and with additional colors for his resort collection. From the thigh to the tip of the stiletto heel of this stunning boot runs a fabulous metal chain, making this look a complete show stopper. The boot is made of sueded calf-skin and sports a fitting design against the wearer's leg, allowing for a flattering fit. The fabulous heel measures in at 5 and 1/2", with a 1 and 1/2" platform.
The FABULOUS fashion icon Victoria Beckham has already been seen and photographed sporting this trendy and sexy over-the-knee boot. As you can see, this boot is so chic and stylish- I adore that it just looks like a regular over-the-knee suede boot from the front, but when you turn around there is that fierce strip of glamorous chain. Good job, Rachel Zoe & Brian Atwood- this was a fierce collaboration! This boot is so amazing, and I wish I could have it- LOVES IT! And as Rachel would say- “These boots are out of control , borderline BANANAS“
This fabulous boot is currently available at Neiman Marcus
Retail Price: $2,900

Want It Wednesday!

I am beyond in love with this stunning bag- This Louis Vuitton Monogram Vernis Alma PM is so FABULOUS! The Alma comes in three sizes: BB, PM, MM (from smallest to largest).
This bag has been seen on a countless number of celebrities and socialites, and is one of Louis Vuitton's classic/signature bags, so it will NEVER go out of style!
I adore Louis Vuitton's Vernis leather (I have an agenda in LV's stunning bright Red Vernis- the official color name is Pomme D'Amour- it is seen in the photo above). This leather has a patent/shiny finish to it and has the LV logo stamped into it. At first, I worried about wear and aging on this bag: Would it crack or scratch easily? Thankfully, this has not been the case at all- even with my agenda, which gets daily use, the leather still remains flawless!
This leather gives off a shine like no other, making this bag even more incredibly elegant and timeless. I am 100% asking for this bag in either the PM or MM size for Christmas this year- I am leaning towards the PM in Amarante (deep black cherry/plum color- seen in pictures above and below this paragraph) or splurging for the MM in Pomme D'Amour (stunning bright red, which would match my agenda)... YES I can't wait to get this bag, I LOVE THE ALMA!
You can purchase an Alma bag at Louis Vuitton (in stores and online)
Retail prices: Alma BB $1,090; Alma PM $1,480; Alma MM $2,010
***The only way to 100% guarantee that your Louis Vuitton purse is authentic is to purchase it from a Louis Vuitton retail store, the official Louis Vuitton online retail store www.louisvuitton.com, or at a department store boutique (such as Saks, Neiman Marcus, etc). PLEASE do not participate in the counterfeit goods market!

Q49 Hillier Purse

I am in LOVE with this fierce new addition to the Marc By Marc Jacobs handbag collection! The 'Q49 Hillier' Hobo is amazing, and I love it not only because of its perfection, but also because I am so happy with my previous purse purchases from the Marc By Marc Jacobs brand!
My first blog review ever was about the Marc Jacobs bag that I purchased at the beginning of this summer (Click here: Fab-YOU-lous: Marc by Marc Jacobs "Classic Q - Ukita")- Months after this purchase and blog review, I still adore this bag- I am actually wearing it today ;) It has made it through being stuffed to the brim with everything imaginable (from high heels to a laptop) and survived rainstorms and crazy weather, but has gotten more soft and gorgeous with every use! I couldn't be happier with my Classic Q Ukita purse, so I really would love to expand my Marc Jacobs collection, and this Q49 Hillier Hobo is the perfect bag to do so with!
The Q49 Hillier is similar to my Ukita, but the biggest difference is the colors available- I am obsessed with this color 'Peacock' that is available in this style! This bag's dimensions are 14"W x 12"H x 5"D, which would be a medium/large size, giving you lots of space for all of your necessities.
I adore the gold toned logo bar in the top center of this bag, which adds subtle dimension to the slouchy, beautiful, and soft leather. Another fantastic detail, as with all Marc Jacobs bags, is the inside lining- This bag's lining is especially fun, as you can see in the picture above. The Q49 Hillier has such a youthful and festive bright red star print, just adding to the amazing details of this bag. The strap is removable and adjustable, so you can wear the bag long, crossbody, or remove the long strap entirely and wear it under your arm.
This purse also comes in different colors, including 'Dangerouge', the fun color seen above. I adore this hobo: the details and design are spot on with the Marc Jacobs brand, making this bag a showstopper and necessity for every fashionista!

You can purchase the Q49 Hillier hobo, and many other Marc By Marc Jacobs purses at Nordstroms
Retail price: $428

Want It Wednesday

After the many months of beautiful summer weather and lightweight clothing, I have to admit that I am excited for the Fall/Winter seasons so that I can switch up my wardrobe a bit- I have been perusing the endless supply of Fall/Winter coats online and found a true show-stopper and my 'Want It' item of the week- this Red Valentino Satin Twill Princess Coat.
This coat is perfection- it is so classy and chic. The design of this coat gives such a flattering fit in its timeless silhouette. It is no question that all eyes will be on you if you are wearing this coat, you truly will be the princess anywhere you go in this Red Valentino Satin Twill Princess Coat!
The stunning details in this coat are hard to ignore- from the fabric to the buttons, everything is flawless. The coat is made of black ribbed satin twill fabric and features velvet buttons and velvet finishing details. The velvet tied bow in the back adds a flirty and feminine detail to this posh coat.I adore this Red Valentino coat so much- it is stunning, and so perfect for the Fall/Winter seasons creeping up on us shortly. What do you think? Do you love it and want it too? Let me know in a comment on this post! Thanks for reading :)

Tory Burch Sandals

I have always loved Tory Burch shoes, especially flats, as I blogged about previously (Click Here: Fab-YOU-lous: Tory Burch Reva Flats). But her flats aren't all that are fabulous, her fun summer sandals are amazing too!
I purchased the Tory Burch 'Thora' sandal in black at the end of last summer, and I absolutely adore them! I am usually anti-flip flops, unless they are classy and most importantly, NOT made of rubber- So obviously, these meet all of my rules for the perfect summer flip flop, and I would totally recommend them to Tory Burch loving fashionistas!
I have worn them a lot this summer and have found that they really wear well over time. The 'Thora' is a patent leather thong sandal that features the classic silver Tory Burch logo medallion in the center of the strap. A very fun detail, especially for Tory Burch fans, is the sandal's embossed lining with the Tory Burch brand logo- it is discreet (especially when on your foot), but adds a little extra detail to the shoe. These flip flops are stylish, classic, chic, and they will match with almost any outfit!
The only issue with these sandals is that they are quite thin (as you can see above). If you want to walk a long distance, then you should opt for a different and more supportive shoe choice for the day, as these will get uncomfortable after a long day of walking (if you still wish to wear sandals and want something super comfortable to walk in, I would recommend Jack Rogers sandals- Click here for more info: Fab-YOU-lous: Jack Rogers Navajo Sandals). To get around this thin-soled comfort issue though, I wear them out to dinner, the movies, or a girl's night- places where I know that I won't be doing a lot of walking, but still need to look stylish and fashionable! Either way, I love these shoes and they are yet another Tory Burch item that remains a staple in my summer wardrobe!

Verdict= Loves it! (4/5 stars)

You can purchase the Tory Burch 'Thora' sandals at department stores such as Nordstroms or Neiman Marcus
Retail Price: $115

Want It Wednesday

Holy moley!!! These boots are the definition of fierce! When I came across these Christian Louboutin Toundra Coyote-Fur Trimmed Suede Ankle Boots I died- These are so edgy and different, and they're Louboutin which makes them extra fabulously amazing, of course!
These fabulously luxurious bootie is made of suede and covered allover in coyote fur, for a completely all-out luxe look! The heel measures in at almost 5 1/2", but these shoes have a great platform (1 1/2"), making the bootie comparable to a 4" heel= easier to maneuver in. The shoe boasts a slightly pointed toe and wide leather buckle straps that peek through the fur. And as always, this fabulous Louboutin has the classic and iconic red sole.
Although it is still summer (and I love the summer, don't get me wrong), I can't help but fantasize about doing a fierce diva stomp in these heels come Fall/Winter! I am obsessed with these shoes and wish I could have them! PS- they also come in black- LOVES IT!
You can pre-order the Christian Louboutin Toundra Coyote-Fur Trimmed Suede Ankle Boots at upscale department stores that sell Louboutin shoes (such as Saks, Neiman Marcus, etc)
Retail price: $2,095

YSL Touche Éclat

I'm back again with yet another beauty review- I just can't get enough makeup, I love it! This review is on the infamous and classic Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat.This product is a favorite of celebrities, socialites, models, and fashionistas worldwide- so of course, I had to give it a try myself!
The Touche Éclat is an award winning highlighter pen. This instant highlighter leaves your skin looking luminously radiant, while also helping to banish signs of fatigue and shadows on your face- it has been coined as "8 hours of sleep in a pen", and who doesn't need to look as though they've had some extra sleep?! I know I do!
The first thing that really stands out when purchasing the Touche Éclat is the fantastic packaging (I guess YSL figures that you're paying an exuberantly overpriced amount for this product, so they better make it pretty lol). The Touche Éclat is no different than other YSL products- it is packaged in the most stunningly shiny golden container- it looks so luxurious and beautiful! YSL definitely gets an A+ for their packaging of this product, it is gorgeous and I love it!
This pen is the perfect size to take with you anywhere, just in case you feel like you need an extra bit of glow! For best results, you should apply this product around the eye area, in the hollow of the chin, above your eyebrows, the contour of the lips and the sides of the nose. Choose which areas you think need some extra glow for you personally, which will normally change daily, and apply here- you can't go wrong!
Touche Éclat is available in four color choices ranging from- luminous radiance (light with a pink-ish undertone), luminous ivory (light with a yellow-ish undertone), light peach (medium warm beige color), and luminous toffee (rich brown toffee color). I personally chose the luminous ivory color and it matches perfectly on my skin tone- it was between radiance and ivory, but my skin has more yellow hues than pink. If you are unsure I would go to Sephora or a department store makeup counter and test it for yourself to get your perfect match.
This pen is NOT a concealer- do not be fooled of that, although it may look like one. It is a highlighter, designed to add light and glow to specific areas of your face, allowing you to look more refreshed. Unfortunately it does not really erase super dark circles (something that I suffer with). However, I have found that this product works best when used over your regular foundation and concealer regime- after you are done with that, then apply the Touche Éclat on top for best results.
Overall, I really do like this product- it looks great on my skin and gives me an extra glow. Everytime I take it out to use it I can't help but smile, since the packaging is so lovely- I will definitely be purchasing more from YSL because of this fact. However, the Touche Éclat is quite expensive compared to other similar products because it is by YSL. Also, I really do wish that the Touche Éclat was a concealer as well so I could eliminate one step to my makeup regime, instead of adding another one.

Verdict= Love it! (4/5 stars)

You can purchase YSL's Touche Éclat from department store makeup counters and Sephora.
Retail Price: $40
