Celebrity Inspired: Kim Kardashian in turqouise
I saw a post earlier today of Kim Kardashian in turquoise jeans. I absolutely loved the look, so fresh and spring like! The turquoise just jumped out with the rest of her outfit staying neutral ivory.
Want to find out how to get the look for less?

Announcements: Congratulations and Condolences
Congratulations...
Just a quick message congratulating a newly married couple--Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian (Humphries).
They were married in a private ceremony in California at an undisclosed private estate, with family and friends, sans paparazzi. The wedding will be televised in October, I guess leading upto their second season of of Kim and Kourtney take New York.
As an admirer of Kim Kardashian's flawless, impecable fashion sense and her entreprenurial saavy (you can tell i'm a fan of it!) I would like to say congratulations to the happy couple. You truly can have it all!
Condolences...
It's a sad time for the NDP party to have to announce the passing of their leader Jack Layton. Condolences for his loved ones and friends, he was a strong fighter as a leader and lived his motto in his party life and his personal life.

Hair of the Day: the chignon
Kim Kardashian at the 2011 People's choice Awards. I absolutely love this hairstyle!
It's the pouffed up chignon with the part in the front...very elegant! I believe that it's common for weddings.
The bridal version, not so high at the top, still beautiful.
Little tidbit I never new before today: They sell chignon pillows to fluff up the round bun! OMGeee! I always wondered how some women get their bun so fluffed!

The Trendy Traveller: tips for travelling in style from the fashionably chic!
Since my mom is on a vacay, I thought it was a perfect topic for a blog...fashionable travel!
Those that know me well know that ever since I've been bitten by the travel bug, i am constantly itching to find the next destination to make the next stamp on my passport. I love being able to travel and find new places to visit, or even just visit a favorite destination again. Ever so often, even if I like to visit new places, my fave places to frequent are Vegas and New York. The fact that they are different states with different weather temperatures, there's a slight difference in how one gets into the place.
When it comes to traveling, there is a fine line between looking disheveled but comfy and fashionably chic but just plain uncomfortable. I've been in both situations, and I can say that there is a happy medium which, after many experiences, believe that I've reached. It also helps taking a cue from the fashionable celebrities that not only do their celebrity thang but also travel for a living to do appearances for their work. Who better to get tips from!? There is no denying--celebrities travel and they love to look good in case paparazzi show up with a few shots for the mags.
Three celebs I love to get tips from for travelling are Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Aniston and Victoria Beckham...Each celebrity with a different style, and each gives their own take on what it takes to be travelling in style...they only way they know how!
The reality star hits the mark in my books when it comes to travel style. She's always chic and always beautiful for the papps when they meet her at arrivals or departures to snap a few pics. she never misses with her flawless style--always the fashionista, she hardly ever looks frumpy but still manages to make her travel outfit look comfy!
2. Victoria Beckham -- Taylored perfection!
Victoria Beckham is one of my style icons-- say what you will about her singing and time in the spice girls, but she is one fashionable lady!!! She always looks good in whatever she does, and rarely will you see a hair out of place! Okay, her fashion may not always translate into comfy travel wear, but she still makes a mark in being a trendy traveller!
3. Jennifer Aniston -- california cool chic!
She always looks california cool chic--casual classy. I've seen countless number of pics of her in mags and online, from going to the set for her next movie or her former show Friends, to running errands about town and being shot by the papparazzi...She doesn't play by the hollywood rules to be over-dressed for a flight, yet she manages to look chic and comfy at the same time!
In the end, it is really upto the person on what makes him/her comfortable the most in...I do know that one shouldn't totally look like a frumpy traveler just because it may be a 5 hour or even a 13 hour flight. I've been to both being reasonably and practically dressed, there is no excuse for looking homeless when you travel. It is my personal opinion that people should take pride in what they wear--even if they don't have the paparazzi following.

1. Kim Kardashian - trendy chic!
Tips:
-Though skinny jeans/cargos or leggings may be the trendy travel wear, make sure that you at least wear a loose top so not everything is clinging on and making you feel uncomfortable!
-lovely boots -- utility boots flat to the ground, sky high heels or over-the-knees, fashion is key but always try to find something that's easy to slip off and slide back on for customs! =)
-nice medium sized bag to house all the important items like passport, wallet, sunglass case, (glasses case--if your me), a mineral spray *a must!* etc.
-glam squad--or if you don't have one, having a ziplock with the essential key makeup to touch up upon landing to look refreshed and at your best for any paps or even anyone that's meeting you at the airport!

2. Victoria Beckham -- Taylored perfection!
Tips:
-tailored pieces make your shape the best it can be, from a jacket to a blazer, it can take you from the aiport to a business meeting (which Ivanka Trump also suggests!)
-again, the bags! having a sensible-sized bag that fits what you need for a comfy travel!
-Extra clothes to change into/out of -- comfort during the flight is key!
-Extra clothes to change into/out of -- comfort during the flight is key!
-big framed glasses a la Audrey Hepburn to hide the lack of sleep during a flight! You will be thankful for this if you're ever in a thirteen hour flight!
3. Jennifer Aniston -- california cool chic!
Tips:
-nice, comfy tops like racerbacks or boyfriend tees are good for travel
-a nice, well-fitting pair of jeans, like the boyfriend jeans or a straight leg cut.
-comfy jacket to get you through the colder flights and of course, a scarf!
-aviators to block the prying paparazzi lenses
In the end, it is really upto the person on what makes him/her comfortable the most in...I do know that one shouldn't totally look like a frumpy traveler just because it may be a 5 hour or even a 13 hour flight.

Ralph Lauren Blue Label: Capes & Ponchos
Capes have been a love of mine for awhile now. I've been long searching for the perfect cape to include in my fall-winter warmth wardrobe. I sooo loved the cream cape that Victoria Beckham wore in a papparazzi pic...pure love.Recently I've been seeing pics of Kim Kardashian sporting an array of Capes and Ponchos as well...I loved her recent one from Ralph Lauren, the Camel Coloured Cashmere Turtleneck Poncho--so beautiful! I decided to check out the website for other styles and ideas--it was heaven. I forgot how much I loved RL Blue Label....Right up my alley of Equestrian fashion--my long gone fashion fave lol.
Here are some capes and ponchos I thought were too cute not to show!

Fashion inspiration #2
I thought I'd talk about my second fashion (and overall inspiration for life) inspiration--Kim Kardashian.
I love the Kardashian sisters not for their fame, but their ability to be true to themselves and take being in the public eye in stride no matter if it's negative or positive publicity.
I think that Kim Kardashian is an inspiration to all girls. I admit, I was less than impressed with the leaked alleged sex tape incident but at the same time I get that no one is perfect. People make mistakes and it's all in how you rise back up in the face of it and move on. She has certainly made her way through the world just fine and gotten past it well enough...

Dressing for the Occasion.
When you are part of the Wedding Entourage, there is no need to ever figure out what to wear since the Bride has this all worked out for you as part of her, well...Entourage lol. While we've all had our chances of being part of a bridal party at one point or another, whether as a flower girl, bridesmaid or even a Maid of Honour--it isn't always going to be the case..
Everyone makes a point to dress well for a wedding of course, since most weddings require either a suit or a dress or some culturally-specific attire. Most weddings are either semi-formal or black-tie events--as would be stated in your invitation to prevent anyone from arriving in jeans and a t-shirt to a semi-formal dress shirt and tie event and stand out like a sheep among wolves.
So you have RSVP'd to a wedding and it's coming up soon...what to wear? I thought I'd share a few of my lessons over the years of going to weddings...

A big DASH of insipiration in my life of fashion!~*
beats:: Nothin' on you - B.O.B. ft. bruno mars
outfit of the day:: Bluenotes Plaid BF rollup shirt (crazy about 'em!), AE Jeans and Aldo 'ugg' type boots =)
fave fashion accessory of the day/moment:: my old navy fleece zip up =) cooooozy!
Cloud and gloom...ugh.
Gotta look at the brighter side of things....it's only thursday BUT, it's a long weekend! *YAY!* It's the first in a long 3 months of winter with no long weekend breaks. I am just thankful we finally get a stat day =)
Moving on from the weather report...lol.
In recent months I've been going through celebrities that I admire for their great fashion sense for some fashion inspiration. No one is in the public eye more than a celebrity, no matter for what reason, and therefore no one works harder to look good everyday, all day! I find that instead of always looking at fashion mags like Vogue and Harper's, if I want to find fashion that I can relate to and is more the everyday look to inspire me, where better than pics of celebs doing the everyday stuff, like errands and going to and fro sets. Even mags like People or US Weekly can show celebs in the most unflattering light, but in some instances, even the most ridiculous stories have pictures of celebrities in their most fashionable everday selves.
Today however, I am proud to name a first of few ladies that inspire my fashion sense, Ms. Kim Kardashian.
From her rise to fame with her scandalous tape, to her reality show and her retail stores 'DASH' in Calabasas and Miami, she is one fashion pro! In every pic she's in, whether it's news about her breakup with her bf Reggie Bush or the paparazzi snapping pics of her entering her Miami store 'DASH' she's always looked her best and nothing less. Great job, Kim! I luv luv lulv her fashion style, but Kim Kardashian is one truly unique lady.
I am proud to be inspired by not only her keen sense of fashion but also just by being proud of herself and who she is. Instead of dyeing her hair in all sorts of crazy blonde and brown colours (except for the one momentary lapse when she dyed it blonde..what were you thinking!?), instad opting to stay true to her natural hair, black. I too, have dyed my hair lots of different colours, but in the end au naturel has always been the way to go. I also admire her for the fact that she refuses to be a skinny waif in the midst of all the supermodels on the cover of magazines. As she has mentioned in one interview, that she likes to eat and just wants to get toned. Me too! She inspires women to be proud and happy for their curves and that stick thin is just not healthy.
I always consider myself a blank canvas for fashion, I like soaking up new inspiration for my own road to discovery of my fashion sense. I am always a work in progress =) Kim Kardashian is just another muse to add to my fashion inspirations!
