Houston's Fashion Night Out

I was so excited when I found out that Houston was participating in the Fashion Night Out along with the other heavily populated big cities like NYC and LA.  Fortunately, this weekend is my birthday weekend so my bestie cousin Shan (also my photographer) came into town to help me ring in my 30th! We put on our best party clothes and hit up Neiman Marcus and the Fendi store who were both serving fabulous champagne!  We swooned over the fashion shows and gawked over all the Fendi bags we so desperately need.  I would say all in all, it was a complete success and I am so incredibly proud that Houston has decided to play in the fashion game! I cannot wait to attend Houston Fashion Week next month; I just know it is going to be fabulous. Cheers to Houston!

I decided to rock my new leather skirt that I picked up at one of our vintage stores downtown, Leopard Lounge!
American Rag sweater, vintage leather skirt, Aldo shoes, vintage ring, Betsey Johnson necklace and earrings, Love Moschino Bag

We decided to head over to the MAC store and get some lashes for the rest of our night!

I decided to rock the unique "Carrie at Stamford's wedding hair" in the Sex and The City 2 movie.  I crimped the underneath layers and used a curling iron on the top layers.

We took this with our IPhone!

Shanna in the City

This past weekend my favorite cuz of all time, Shan (that's what I call her), came down to Houston to go see Sex and The City 2 with me and all my lady friends.  We had a blast and we all highly recommend that you go see the movie, if not just for the stunning wardrobe this movie contains! Well, after our night out on the town, Shan decided she was ready for a new look.  She asked me for big, blonde chunky highlights and she didn't care what else I did as long as she looked blazin' when we were all done. So I began painting on my new blank canvas blonde, panel highlights throughout her hair and finished with an all-over warm, chestnut brown to make the blonde panels underneath pop.  I cut just enough long layers into her hair to capture the movement of her new hue.  I wanted to share with you all our final product!
ENJOY!

The Gucci Belt Bag....A Must Have!!

Ok, so as we told you before, Natalie is the shoe hussy and I am the label hussy. I have a weakness for labels, but as I realize they are very expensive, I will really hone in on the items that I think are absolutely worth their price!
The Gucci Belt Bag has been around for a few years now, and I know you are thinking why in the world would I buy a fanny-pack? Didn't those go out in the early 90s? Well they did, but the Gucci Belt Bag is an amazing alternative to the purses the cross body purse. You know the purse you carry when you are going to be on the run and you don't want to carry your huge, clunky, tote?? Now if you need one more stamp of approval before you are convinced, then I have it for you. Sarah Jessica Parker (My favorite actress ever!) wore it throughout most of Season 4 of Sex and The City. I looked for the belt bag while I was as the Houston Galleria this past weekend, and it retails for $465 and it is 9 in W and 5 in H.  There are a few other sites that sell it for a discounted price, but I am always skeptical of sites that put designers on sale just because if you are going to splurge for the new designer handbag, you better dang sure know it is authentic!!

A Little Quote for your Closet

Sex and The City is my all-time favorite TV show as well as my all-time favorite movie! So, I will also be referring to this show and quoting from it quite often, as it pertains to our posts.  I just wanted to give you all a little inspiration for your closet ladies!
