Tye Dye Fun!!

The resort I stayed in while in Vegas was to DYE for! No literally! The resort offered lots of fun activities for kids like snow cone makers, jumpers, games for the swimming pool and tye dying and you guys know I was all for it. This is a fun DIY all of you can try out at home with old clothes. The more rubber bands I used the more white their was on my tank.

Viva Las Vegas

As I promised you guys, here's a few pics of how I styled the vintage jacket and shorts I found at the Rose Bowl. I was in Las Vegas the past few days and the weather was 10x hotter than what we've been having in LA so this outfit was perfect for the rooftop party I went to.

High waist shorts -Vintage Levi's

Color Trends: Fall 2012

Remember that scene from "The Devil Wears Prada" when Miranda lectured Andy about the CERULEAN color sweater she was wearing (btw which is one of my fav scenes)

"Andy Sachs: No. No, no. Nothing's... You know, it's just that both those belts look exactly the same to me. You know, I'm still learning about all this stuff and, uh...

Miranda Priestly: 'This... stuff'? Oh. Okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select... I don't know... that lumpy blue sweater, for instance because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise. It's not lapis. It's actually cerulean. And you're also blithely unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns. And then I think it was Yves Saint Laurent... wasn't it who showed cerulean military jackets? I think we need a jacket here. And then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. And then it, uh, filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic Casual Corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room from a pile of stuff."

Well Cerulean has made a comeback this fall and I will for sure be incorporating this color in my fall wardrobe.

This weeks vintage finds

One Sunday of every month theirs a huge flea market held at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. I went for the first time this Sunday and was amazed by how many sellers were in one place. At the Rose Bowl you can find everything from vintage clothing to vintage furniture. Sadly I made it their a bit late and everyone was packing up their merchandise. Besides making it their late and the hot weather we had on Sunday I enjoyed the experience and will for sure go back next month. Here are the two pieces I bought, I'll be showing you guys in a later post how I style them.

I want!!

Christian Louboutin "Unbout"

I'm loving how Lala and Bey paired them with such casual outfits.
