Desoliel Diesel =(

So I like the disheveled look, when it's done right! Browsing the photos from the Diesel Black Gold collection I just couldn't get it, for a pret a port line this collection had homeless written all over it rather than vagabond.Immediately below is what I didn't like.





















There were few redemptions to speak of, but I'll let you see those too.













Are we thinking the same thing? Where is the Cohesion, some pieces look so beautiful and others fall below the waist.

Lucky Gives It Up

Yet another reason to love Lucky Magazine. It's my favourite magazine because every page is loaded with stuff, minus the padding because it really doesn't need it. From now up until the end of March Lucky is hosting a giveaway a day; 45 days worth of prizes, what other magazine do you read that gives you that much incentive? 2,100 items, ranging from Mulberry purses and Palm Treo Pro's to Edun Silk Cami's, Ipods and Gucci Sunglasses. Check www.luckymag.com for more details and to enter each day, it's a fabulous opportunity you don't want to miss.

Stuck In Limbo

So the season's over but it's neither been confirmed or denied that the Lipstick Jungle series is over, (stop listening to the rumors and wait til NBC announces its fall lineup). The fact that the Peacock network is still undecided about a show as great as Lipstick makes me a little upset, to say the least. The difference between my love for Lipstick Jungle and Gossip Girl has always been that caught in the middle feeling where I'm almost in the real world but still holding onto my teenage years, how's that for stuck in limbo? Just as my fate looms over the line of adulthood, NBC proves to me that it's not so different when it comes to marketing demographics. For now I'll keep praying NBC will wisen up and decide to keep the Jungle going for another season, because if I have to be an adult I'd want to live in the Jungle.

For the love of Lipstick! NBC don't cancel this show!

GG Update

Soooo...Carrnal Knowledge was amazing, blowing all Gossip Girl expectations out of the water, is Blair back on track? will Dan and Ms. Carr's relationship fold? what will Serena do? what's up with Chuck and the ghost of his father's past? So many questions, leaving more to unfold than ever before over the rest of the season. Packed with a steamy affair and Blair's brilliant antics, the last Gossip Girl episode set up a series of intricate mini drama's that I can't wait to see it all unravel. I'm not sure what to do with myself since Gossip Girl will be on hiatus for a month, so the spoiler browsing will have to keep me content.

**Spoiler Alert**
In case you didn't get the memo I've been a Blair and Nate fan since I can remember, and I was hoping the writers would see fit to see it my way again soon. I'm thanking the writing Gods for finally leading the CW writers in the right direction. Not that I haven't loved every misleading move along the way, but as a devout N&B fan I'm beyond happy that pictures have surfaced corroborating my deepest GG wish that Prince Charming and Queen B will reunite again. I'll be awaiting Blair Waldorf's Day Off, hoping that for once everything will fall into place for Blair Bear, Yale and love included.

There and Back Again...

Coordinating a fashion show is no easy feet, it was amazing but thank God it's over, and just in time for New York Fashion Week. Now I'm catching up on my favourite tv shows, all the fashion, celebrity gossip, some school reading, and browsing diligently on every website for NY Fashion Week updates. I received my notification email this week letting me know that I'll be volunteering for Toronto's LG Fashion Week, YAY! The game is on, with internship applications being sent off and school heading into high gear the intensity is about to rise up again. There's something about being endlessly busy that makes me feel so alive, it's why New York is the perfect place to live. I've been there and back again, and ready to get back to blogging, at least for a little while.
