Personal Style Philosophy:

Let your style reflect what you love, who you are, and most importantly, who you want to be!

 

MRL's No Longer MIA.

hi!


xoxo. mrl.




just kidding princesses. i owe the blog more than that. especially considering i'm in the most boring/least stylish city of the four of us (sorry san diego, you know it's true. attending the san diego style exhibit in balboa park with morgan and chantal verified that).

so, since i'm in the least glam city, that means i have to do much more research searching for style inspiration, which you pretties will reap the benefits of (aka the fruits of my labor spending hours on who what wear, polyvore and net-a-porter).

i've also always lived by the theory that my style/life icon and reason for living once said herself.

"people collect art. people collect stamps. i collect clothes."



- rachel zoe



rz speaks the truth. more to come.

A Day of Mourning

Fashion week in NYC began today and unfortunately, I was stuck in class, developing characters and giving oral presentations...

Thus the reason for my lack of activity: depression.


Everyone else has no excuse. They just suck. (hi princesses)

Homeless Chic

So, I have this sick apartment being built that I was supposed to move into this week...


But, because too many good things happen to me:


God thinks it is funny to keep bumping back my move in day and to turn me into a homeless person to try and teach me a lesson:


This has confused some of my admirers, and thus I want to send a message to the fashion world: You don't have to be inspired by EVERYTHING I do. 

Being homeless isn't glam.... I am talking to you Vivienne Westwood:


Above is a still for her Fall/Winter 2010 collection from her recent Milan show. Check it out if you don't believe me.

All I have to say is this... if you are going to use my life as your source of inspiration, why don't you put me up at the W until my apartment is done and then we can call it even?

Thanks.
xx

M.I.A.

Lady Lagerfeld finally made contact via SKYPE with ELLA SAINT LAURENT
Could not be any happier with my tour of the new Milan digs she shares with cutting edge fashion icon Lui.

***Karl, call my people and we will collaborate, I promise.***
All is well in the world again!

WAIT, NO IT IS NOT....

TWO OF OUR BLOGGERS ARE M.I.A.

LOOK LADIES, IF A HOMELESS GIRL AND A JET SETTER CAN DO IT, SO CAN YOU.... CONTRIBUTE BEFORE I START POSTING UNFLATTERING PICTURES OF YOU ALL OVER THE INTERNET.


Just kidding, unflattering pictures of us don't exist.

Divine Inspiration


Inspiration for a good outfit doesn't happen overnight. It takes muses of all kinds. For example, Saturday night I went out with some of my favorite ladies in San Diego, so clearly I had to look bangin':


I know, I know, I'm looking good.... but I couldn't have done this alone. Special thanks to my inspirations:

Calvin Harris Flashback Video



Chanel S/S '07 aka Karl Lagerfeld, fashion demigod.

AND Most Importantly, Ella Saint Laurent- Best friends are the best muses


Lady Lagerfeld's #1 Pearl of Wisdom: ALWAYS be paparazzi ready. They're lurking everywhere, trust me.


Can't wait to see how the other SATC ladies rock their sequin shorts.

Lady Lagerfeld Loves YSL

Photobucket
The shoe gods love to smile on the SATC Princesses, and that is exactly what happened on Saturday when these beauties entered my life.

How will I walk in them.... minor detail. If these hoes can do it, I probably can too. (sorry Diane Kruger, you're a goddess)

Even though I went out Saturday night I didn't let them have their debut, mostly because the scene from Clueless where Cher's satin shoes get ruined was running through my mind and I didn't want to cause a scene if someone spilled a drink on them.

I relate way more to that movie than anyone should.... oops.

Ella Saint Laurent




Ciao Amoress!!! Hello from Milan!! It has been a chilling spring, but the winter wear is HOTT.
I am sure most of you know me as Ella from Lui & Ella, Fashion with a View.
But my heart belongs to my ladies, My brunettes and red head.

Lets be honest, being this hott is not easy...

But someone has got to do it...and we accept this task.
What must someone do to become royalty? Just ask DVF...
Besides the point of not atcually marrying a prince, we have decided that Royalty is chic, always looking their best, and in the know...all three of which we are.
We are FASHION ROYALTY.


SO being that I, Ella Saint Laurent, am currently residing in Milano, i will express to you what a princess wears in the cold to a club.

LEATHER skinny pants, Chains, Boyfriend Tee, Chanel cuff, Louboutins... Any questions?
xoxo- Ella Saint Laurent

p.s...more to come from Milano!!! ciao!!1

Prepare For Obsession


Just kidding... obviously you are already obsessed. Welcome to Sex And The Cities, the genius brainchild that keeps us all united whilst simultaneously keeping everyone entertained.

And entertain we will, seeing as in the past year alone the four of us have done amazing things like crashing the most exclusive parties, chilling backstage at both rock and runway shows, meeting style icons DVF and Rachel Zoe, all while continuing to accumulate wardrobes that would rival Anna Dello Russo's (we wish... KARL PLEASE ADOPT US).

Even though best friends should never be kept apart, sadly the four of us are forced to be star crossed lovers the majority of this year, as we all are busy chasing different goals... I guess you really can't have everything. Luckily for you, we are in four of the best cities in the world: New York, LA, San Diego, and oh, yeah... MILAN. Even though most of the magic happens when we are together, this blog is going to help document that which happens when we are apart... skyping to compare going out outfits, BBMing pictures while shopping on 5th avenue... you know, the usual long distance relationship stuff...

xoxo
