I love this plaid button up from Elizabeth and James. The print is not overly retro or western, but the best part is the back. There are buttons in the back so you can wear it as tight or as loose as you’d like. Genius! You can get it from Intermix for $225.

I already mentioned this earlier, but I’m excited that they’re coming back. Flares are so much more flattering on everyone than skinny jeans. Keep it up girlies.

I had a post a few days back about flare-legged jeans making a come back. And slowly but surely the 90’s are coming back. I found two hilarious blog posts on these stupid animal backpacks.

Fashionindie & Fashionista

Flare-leg jeans=good.

Animal backpacks=bad.

Somethings are better left in the past.

I just noticed that Victoria Beckham as been wearing super-flare leg jeans a lot lately. Since almost every trend in fashion is recycled, I’m sure flare legged jeans will be hot in the next year or so. I’m excited. I loved them in the 90’s so I say bring it on. Oh, all of these are from her dVb denim line.

It really concerns me that Rihanna wears really high risk things yet she makes it look good. I’m sure the fact the I have a major girl-crush on her helps it along. I mean look at this she’s wearing pseudo hammer pants.

P.S.

Love the makeup. Makeup like this this usually doesn’t look good anywhere other than the red/orange carpet.

Everything was very feminine during NY fashion week. I guess it’s not cool to dress like a boy anymore. Some of what made it so feminine were the cuts, fabrics, and especially all the ruffles. See click below for the slide show or here.
