Isaac Mizrahi NY...Dot Com

Ok...so I stole the material for this post from Sharon and Cristina's Blog...so sue me - it's not that big a deal. I was just too excited to not say something about this: Isaac Mizrahi has an amazing website, and I'm pretty sure I'll end up becoming obsessed with it in much the same way I became obsessed with his show on the Style network. He's got a video blog, a blog, little web-isodes, and an "Ask Isaac" section (yes, I asked him a question - it was about dog harnesses, and we'll see if I get a response).
He's won 4 CFDA awards, which is pretty incroyable if you ask me. Not bad for a Jewish boy Flatbush.

Dude's Got A Lot Of Pugs

I'm going to see Valentino : The Last Emperor this Thursday at my mom's insistence. She could not stop raving about it (I think she feels a kindred spirit in him on account of the many small dogs similarity). It's playing at The Film Forum from 3.18 - 3.31, and it's made by a Wesleyan alum. Isn't everything made by one of those kids these days? C'mon kids-from-other-schools...do something to impress me...let's wipe that smug grin off their faces!
(If you went to Wesleyan, and are my friend - as some of you are - please don't take that outburst seriously)
Ok, Valentino is the man. Enjoy.

"You Got It, Duuuuude"

Not to be mean, but I don't like the Olsen twins. Never understood the fascination there. Is it because there are 2 of them and they're little and blond? What's the deal? I didn't even like them when they were on Full House...did their little monkey faces freak nobody else out as a child?? (please see picture above)
Alright, even though I'm not of a fan of theirs, I am a huge fan of the clothes they make.
The Row is filled with simple, neatly cut, smart pieces - from perfect (but outrageously expensive) white tshirts to very nicely constructed banded pencil skirts with a sexy zipper down the butt...it's all lovely.
And now I've found their "cheap" "sportswear" line, Elizabeth and James. I'm not sure why they advertise it as cheap or sporty - it is neither. However, it is quite nice, and it did make me happy. Especially the black Tube Dress - willy wizards* is that a fine piece of work...
And if there's anyone out there who feels like getting yours truly a little gift for no reason at all, I wouldn't be unhappy with this ring (size 6)...
A girl can dream, right?

Day Glow My Heart

Usually I'm a simple girl when it comes to my apparel color-schemes. I like black and white. Sometimes I'll throw in a little grey, but just to accent my monotone uniform.
But recently, something funny started to happen - I felt myself being pulled to....NEONS! At first I was like "Wha happened?", and I tried to fight the electric urge with all my might.
And then, as most stories like this go, I ended up in Miami and my battle with the neon was lost in an instant when I laid eyes on a hot pink racer-back tank from Alexander Wang.
I know fashion week was a little while ago, but I didn't really take any notice of it...until now.
Apparently, the neon epidemic has spread like wild fire with everyone from Narciso to Marc diving headfirst into the looney bin.
And while I'm sure that there are those of you out there who can't help but want to scream "isolate him, isolate him!" (Outbreak style), I've just gotta say I've been bitten by the neon bug and i loooovvvvveeee it.
Happiness.
P.S. this post would not have been made possible without the lime green support and hot pink guidance of Liana KG.
