Bohemian Rhapsody

Jewel By Lisa

Just moved to a very artsy part of Los Angeles . And this is what I am presently into graceful maxi dresses. It's a L.A, and it is summer even during winter months. We are so spoiled!!! lol

Eye Candy

These are over-top hot . Not sure of the brand, however, if any of you have a hint, holla!!!!Now what would look good with these? Hmmmm, skinny jeans and tailored dress shirt , cinched with a gray or hot pink blazer. The shoes make the statement and you are just living in its world ;-)

Miu Miu Stitched Platform Sandals

 Miu Miu Stitched Platform Sandals

This is so adorable. I am a sandals junkie. I love sandals. Especially well- made, heavily stitched, and platform.I remember  my mother's photo album circa 1960' and the numerous photographs of platform stitched sandals and simply wanting to teleport those awesome platforms to modern day.  Well, lucky for us, Miuccia Prada delivered the perfect sandal in these Miu Miu  heavily stitched platform sandals .

I love the double buckle on the double ankle strap of this sandal. It's well made and I heart the cutout and semi circular cutout straps which extends down the vamp of this heavily stitched sandal.

These shoes retail at $595 at Barney's New York and SaksFifthAvenue It comes in Mallard Blue, Cream and Brown. 

Depending on where you choose to purchase these awesome sandals, you may be able to save a whopping 

$119 of the $595 retail price tag.

Print Me Boho

Ever since I heard of Jewel by Lisa, I have been a die-hard fan and supporter. And for rightful raison! It's such a unique line and my wardrobe is filled with majority of Jewel By Lisa designs. This is an ideal line for artists and fashion forward fashionistas or in the Jewel By Lisa style dictionary, a Jewelette! I love head designer, Lisa Folawiyo's interpretation of all things Ankara ,Print and her daring mixture of silk, embellishments, beading and more than anything her genius placement of embellishment on the collar of some of her designs. I guess, I am holding on for dear life, until she decides to make suits for women!

As usual, I am such a sucker for beauty, I am almost a beauty glutton. Bwahahahaha! It was very tough to choose a minimum # of designs to post on this blog. And as I write this, I am leaning towards posting every single design of hers ranging from her Autumn/Winter 2011and Spring/Summer 2011, which I adore. But hey, everything in sweet moderation, abi? lol . It's Spring season and just this once, we should do like Romans  in Rome and adhere to tradition.

Enjoy my beauties.

This is the perfect line for all Bohemian princesses and queens. The Wrap Dress is simply presh. But I'll be lying if I neglected the Body Con dress at the very top. Ah yum . yum. YUM. So where can you place your orders? It depends. If you are in Los Angeles, a simple trip to Zainab on Melrose Avenue will score you a Jewel By Lisa thread. If not in L.A, you can visit Temple Muse and place your order there. Enjoy! What's not to enjoy!

Purple Injection

I am a true sucker for versatile shoes and versatile colors. When I style for the day, I find that one single shoe, an earring, a necklace can inspire a whole month or week of awesome style ideas. And this lovely gold studded suede stiletto do it for me. You can easily rock washed out tight or skinny jeans matched with a simple white tee and and blazer and voila, you are set. Or, you can rock this with a brown , white or grey baby doll dress and the shoe still makes the statement. Like many of you, I love a bargain. I once bought a 5 inch J-Lo shoes for $5! I know. Days like that, a girl  feels like the luckiest chic alive!



I digress, this post is about the purple wonder  gold heeled PUMPS. They are workable and utterly lovable. For $49, you can get a pair by clicking on  this link to place you order! mwah.

Oscar, With Love, Giambattista

It's Autumn, my time of year. Lately, I have a strong jones for gowns. Fitted gowns, strapless gowns, long sleeve , short sleeve gowns. Maybe I am just feeling the effects of the romantic Fall season. Oscar De La Renta is a fashion icon for very rightful raison!~
