As I skimmed the pages of the Holy Fashion Bible (Vogue;
September Issue) I fell in love and lust with so many people, places, events
and of course items. I discovered new brands that I want to experience for
myself and encourage others to try, such as; The Elder Statesman, with its
array of perfect knitwear and Master and Muse; the line of ‘ethical and
environmentally responsible fashion’.
I myself hope that in the next life I will get to experience
a Gatsby inspired soirée filled with beautiful feathered and jeweled gowns,
great music of the roaring 20’s and the feeling of a different time and place
in this world. I pray to one day cover my face with only the most beautifully
jeweled mask and guess at whom I might be talking to. I dream of a night full
of exotic masked men and women; amongst them Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.
Just once in my life, before I gracefully croak, I must will this experience
into my life.
Yes, all of these things were subconsciously added to my
very long list of things to experience, however, I also made another list that
is just slightly less appealing yet much more attainable to me. This is my list
of must haves from this September issue. PS. I’m already saving for 3 in
particular! Can you guess which ones?
1. Eva Mendez is collaborating with New York and Company and I absolutely love the camel blazer she is wearing. It is the perfect mens blazer/coat that is so on trend.
#2 H&M had a really nice spread through the center of this issue and I fell in love with nearly everything but 2 pieces in particular. The first one being this super slouchy and cozy turtleneck sweater. I would love to pair this with my white jeans and electric blue heels.
#3 My second must have from H&M is this super hot moto vest. I would throw this over a black long sleeve v neck with a feather mini skirt. Finish it off with a sexy fall maroon wedge and I'll be ready to take on the world.... or maybe just Seattle... for now.
#4 These amazing outfit polishers are so out of my reach; a girl can dream though! These Lanvin statement necklaces are a beautiful edition to a simple tee look with a super sexy leather jacket (my faves are from All Saints)! Anyone want to get me one?
#5 I saw these lovely things in a sexy black and white ad by 7 For All Mankind. These would be perfect with a sleeveless white button up and a sophisticated pair of sandal strap heels.
#6 Ok so maybe I am just an over supportive army wife but I have been dying to find the perfect shade of army green polish. It's for my most patriotic days when I am feeling extra in love with my soldier. This Zoya nail lacquer is exactly what I have been unable to find for so long.
#7 A piece of luxury doesn't always come easy for those of us who can't afford quality items, so when Target does collaborations with the fashion worlds hottest designers, trust that I will be in the front of the line. This black 3.1 Phillip Lim bag is perfect for any occasion. I personally can't wait to pair it with my high waisted Vince jeans, white button up, red lips and the 3.1 Phillip Lim 'Boom' silk scarf that will also be sold at Target.
#8 Has anyone smelled this new yummy scent by Marc Jacobs? It's delicious, and as a Marc Jacobs fragrance collector I will definitely be adding this to my shelf.
#9 I absolutely love this entire add. It's vibe is so art deco chic and I personally am considering cutting my hair like this. I am also considering adding this fuzzed out zipper front bomber jacket from TopShop to my permanent fall wardrobe and it looks comfy enough to possibly add it to my sleepwear as well. I am in love.
