Look of the Week

Best example of accessory (chain necklace) as top. Also the use of the silver complements the cool look of the crisp white blazer and high-waisted shorts.

Just Bought: CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund A. Wang Jacket

I dropped by the Gap earlier this week and saw the new CFDA clothes. The Vena Cava designs were nice from afar but up close, the print design wasn't very attractive. Particularly the pants. They looked like something a child in kindergarten drew on their own pants. However the Alexander Wang designs were quite nice. At first I was attracted to the cropped motorcycle jacket but when I tried it on, it was way to big/boxy and made me look wider. I then tried on the zip-front blazer (second top on the right in top photo or photo below). It was perfection.


On me:

Emma Watson - Burberry A/W '09 BTS

An exclusive Emma Watson and Burberry's Christian Bailey interviews from the behind the scenes photo shoots in London. Great song in the background. Again, she looks amazing.

True Blood Season 2

Thanks to a Japanese scientist's invention of synthetic blood, vampires have progressed from legendary monsters to fellow citizens overnight. And while humans have been safely removed from the menu, many remain apprehensive about these creatures "coming out of the coffin." Religious leaders and government officials around the world have chosen their sides, but in the small Louisiana town of Bon Temps, the jury is still out.

Local waitress Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), however, knows how it feels to be an outcast. "Cursed" with the ability to listen in on people's thoughts, she's also open-minded about the integration of vampires — particularly when it comes to Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer), a handsome 173-year-old living up the road. But at the service of Bill's less virtuous vampire associates, Sookie is drawn into a series of catastrophes that will put their love to the test.

The latest hit series from 'Six Feet Under' creator Alan Ball, 'True Blood' delves into the meticulously-crafted world of novelist Charlaine Harris. Described by the Emmy®-winning Ball as "popcorn for smart people," the first season of ‘True Blood' caused an overnight sensation — and the new installments only build on his colorful cast of supernatural misfits.

True Blood was back for season 2 on June 14. It's on every Sunday and there will be 12 episodes. I think it is a great show about vampires and I love the relationship between Sookie and Bill who are also dating in real life. It is HBO's 3rd most popular show after SATC and the Sopranos which is pretty impressive. Watch the first season and catch up if you aren't already into the show.

Look of the Week

In honor of the start of Wimbledon this week here is an all white look that would be perfectly cute for the grass court.

Are these worth it?

I desperately want a romper style jumpsuit. I consider this one of those trends that I might easily regret in about 3 months but I really want one now. However, if you go to the fast-fashion stores like Zara or H&M, they are really not attractive looking. Two similar ones that I have found that I think look great are both regularly $500! Even with the Vanessa Bruno ones at $200, I think it is excessive for something that I won't have any desire to wear next year. One summer of ironic 70's flashback (at least I wasn't born in that decade lol) is enough even if the style is still hot next year.

Catherine Holstein Jumper $554


Vanessa Bruno Athé Playsuit $510 now $204


So is it worth a couple hundred to buy one of these? They are so much nicer than the ones I've seen so far but they are also way beyond what I would normally spend on a trend item....
