Now, of course I knew my friends and family wouldn't be able to understand my wacky purchase decision because they don't understand my attention getting fashion. However, I don't care. I am a trend setter. I am always taking my fashion to the next level. That's why I am not surprised to see the color orange on the runway as well as models in the magazines with orange lipstick. Gotta love risk-taking that ends in your favor!

Orange Citrus Pout
I took a trip to the MAC counter a few months ago. I had come to remedy my makeup fix; it was time to add something new to the makeup box as well as refill those basic necessities. As I mentally prepared my list, I noticed one of the makeup artists with orange lipstick. I didn't know what to think about her bold, punchy pout. It could be received as an interesting and fun color or mistaken as "Girl, what were you thinking?". I couldn't help but to stare at her obsessively. So I finally bottled up the courage to ask for the color, trying it on couldn't be that bad. I tried it on and.... LOVED IT! It was the best thing I had purchased that day and I couldn't wait to wear.

The Evolution of Men's Fashion
Men's fashion has evolved to a fashion-forward entity, infused with color and design. There was definitely a moment when men's fashion was dull with basic pants, shirts, and blazers. Men were dressed like politicians and preachers on their best day, and like a hobo on their worst. However, a transitional period has happened. Eureka! Could it be the advocacy of gay rights? Or the influx of men being passionate about dressing? Kanye West has let it be known that he is a "man of fashion". I have noticed men's silhouettes are akin to women's contour; men's pants and shirts have become tighter, meanwhile sparing no color or texture. I don't know what has changed the game of what to wear and what not to wear for men-- but, I really enjoy watching men's fashion evolve. Yay, men! I can finally enjoy shopping for you.

Whoop Whoop!
Today is the beginning of a huge extravaganza-- Fashion Night Out. It started in New York by Vogue magazine to stimulate the economy and boost sales for retailers. The results were remarkable. It was epic and dreamy for the shoppers to have a night of splurging on fashion obsessions-- and mingling with celebrity designers. Now, Los Angeles wants a piece of the action. With huge financial issues, Los Angeles really needs this! *exhaling* Yes, really!

Who's That Dude?
Is that--is that who I think it is? OMG, that's Lady Gaga dressed like a man!
This diva definitely knows how to push the envelope. Forget about the rumors of her supposedly being a hermaphrodite, she toys with the idea and publicize it.
I hate to admit this but she's not a bad looking guy. These photos have a GQ flavor to it.
What am I gonna do?
Getting a job would make things more simple in my life. It would, uh... fix the problems of keeping me busy, making money--Oh, and my impulsion to shop and play dress up. I want to wear the fabulous clothes that are classified as work appropriate. I am not talking about clothing from the 80’s with boxy suit jackets and pleated-front pants, but sophisticated yet whimsical pieces. I was looking at the fashions for fall 2010, and I desperately want all of the collections from Armani and Chanel. I love the juxtaposition of contemporary and modern as well as femininity and provocative.
