F'n Gorjess: I ALWAYS HAD A PASSION FOR FASHION...BEFORE I HAD IT I CLOSED MY EYES & I

I stopped by our new local H & M store here at Crabtree Valley Mall on Sunday afternoon. I am totally stoked about the new Spring/Summer line due to be released May 4, 2010. I have a few items that I'll be keeping my eye on! Here's what I picked up yesterday...

Sorry I've been neglecting you dolls lately but it's finals week and I am graduating in two weeks! I am so stoked, planning a few trips including a fun trip to Cancun with friends and family! I purchased a new camera so I have so many photos to share! I'll update you all on what I am using later...

M.I.A....

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 01:47:00 +0000

OK OK I know I've been M.I.A. for a minute now and to think have the audacity to come back without an outfit post! I've been really, really busy with school. I am a graduating senior this semester and will be graduating in May. I have found some pretty nice things and they just opened an H & M here in Raleigh, NC so I have some cool things I am so ready to share with u all! So let's get ready to day is the first day if spring, so let's put our best fashion foot forward! Here's a few looks I am looking forward to this Spring...

COMBAT+HIKER+SHERLING+TIMBER+5 INCHES...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 05:35:00 +0000

I found these beauties for relatively cheap while I was at my cousin's wedding in Virginia. They are extremely comfortable and they were so economically cheap I couldn't resist. Not to mention that they also reminded me of the staple Manolo Blahnik's made famous by Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce in 2002. There were so many knocks offs of this shoe, terrible, terrible thing. I've not gotten much wear out of them so far and don't plan to wear them in the Spring and definitely not the summer, so I will be incorporating them in the rotation more frequently. You can find them here online.

--On a side note I am watching Bad Girls Club and Amber just pushed Florina into the pool and broke her ankle. Plus she insulted her with Gay/Lesbians slurs. To top it all off she decided to play the victim and decides to send Florina home. I just can't understand some people and I will leave it at that...SMH

I am now wishing that it was Spring and that my Winter woes would go away! I am visioning myself channeling SATC's(SEX AND THE CITY) characters this Spring. I am excited to play with some girly patterns mixed with tough textures, skyscraper heels and of course studded glam!

I am still on the fence about this one, however, I can't wait too long otherwise they'll be gone too soon. Nevertheless, I do like the play on snakeskin that these booties offer. I have a soft spot for somereason for anything animal print. The only thing that leaves me on the fence about these are the fact that they can't be worn in the summer and I am only shopping for Spring/Summer as of now. If I do decide to cop a pair it'll be the Ivory colorway.

Date Night...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 23:51:00 +0000

Last night I went to the pre-screening of "Leap Year", starring Amy Adams, Matthew Goode, and Adam Scott among others. The movie was entertaining to say the least. If it wasn't for the fact that it was free and that Matthew Goode was one of the hottest Irish men ever, it would've taken paper clips to keep my eyes open. The movie did have its ups, the story line was the most enchanting love story and very comical. It just all seemed so simplistic and I guess I was expecting more. Other than that, it was an opportunity to get out and have some fun.

Tomorrow we're going to Laugh Out Loud Comedy Club which ought to be fun! Here is what I am thinking of wearing or something along these lines.

At Atteeeeeeention!

(F21 Military Band Jacket, Zara Jeggings, Jeffrey Campbell 'Clinic' Wedges, Cynthia Rowley Carry All)

Around the water table we were having a discussion as to whether you like a man to be completely bald, trimmed or unkempt? We're not talking the about the northern hemisphere, we're talking below the equator. Really should men keep their arm pits and pubs neatly kept as women do? Or would this make you feel some type of way about a man with a neatly trimmed landing strip, shaved armpits or if you caught him shaving that big bear rug on his chest and back?

I wore this outfit awhile ago while out scouring after christmas deals. I love this jacket from F21, I am thinking of doing a DIY on it to resemble the Balmain and Guess versions.

Guess?

Jeffrey Campbell Studded Cheetah Tick Wedges...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 18:54:00 +0000

Whew...that is a long name! The more variations that these boots come in the longer the name gets. They went from JC ticks to now, cheetah and zebra. I am sooooo....waiting for the zebra colorway to be released, Nicki Minaj wore them in the Young Money Bedrock video. Check out the video to peep Nicki Minaj rockin the zebra print.

Rodarte For Target...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 16:51:00 +0000

Ok let me be the first to say, I am not the least bit impressed by this collection. The things that are so frustrating and annoying about the blogger-fashion world is the willingness to jump on the bandwagon for anything. That collection is hideous! atrocious! The only thing that may be appealing to a half blind monkey is the sequin skull dress and ok...maybe the cheetah print dress. Ok! I am done ranting, I just don't understand the fashion-blogger world. Everyone posts about the same thing and so quick to jump on the bandwagon. Needless to say I will not being owning a piece of this monumental, long anticipated Rodarte for Target collection. But to those who may, "Mo power to Ya"!

The Great Debate...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 14:29:00 +0000

After a long debate with MYSELF, i have decided that i need these Ashish Topshop Wedge Boots . i usually do not like to go along with trends or if i see too many bloggers jumping on the bandwagon for some new product i try to shy away from it. So that was my initial reason for not getting these shoes when they first came out. They have been re-released on Topshop for $310. i almost copped a pair on ebay for $220 but someone beat me to the punch! Nevertheless, i have decided that i want the zebra print. So my question to you guys is that if anyone has the zebra print Ashish wedges and is willing to let them go for less than $300 bucks, i'll gladly take them off your hands!

Jeffrey Campbell's Sick Clinic...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 14:58:00 +0000

After a wonderful day of shopping and spa therapy, I came home to find my JC Clinics awaiting for me! I purchased them from solestruck on black Friday and they were the last pair, talk about lucky.Talk about sick, these wedges are even more than what I imagined. Warning! These will have heavy rotation in my wardrobe!

Blinds...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 19:37:00 +0000

I am soo...loving this Asos Mesh Panel Dress, $170. I am debating about going to my company's Christmas party and I am looking for a dress or romper to wear. Whether or not I attend my company's party or another, this dress would be perfect!

Peep Rihanna's version she wore to Paris Fashion Week.

Black Friday...

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 04:45:00 +0000

I didn't feel much like going out in the crowds today, but I also had to work. So I did not get up at the crack of dawn to get stampeded by a bunch of crazed women, men and children. I did make it out to South Point Mall in Durham, NC to get a few things. I am so excited because I stopped into Sephora to pick up a tube of Dior Show Mascara, and left out with some really great Kinerase samples as well as a box of D&G perfume samples. I know its just samples but I have really been wanting the D&G L'imperatrice perfume, I let everyone know that is number 1 on my X-mas list (yes, I still have a list)! Nevertheless, I did not get out much today to embark on the black Friday "sales" but I did manage to score big online. While all you wonderful jolies were out waiting in lines for countless hours I managed to get a new camera, a few vampire accessories (pics soon) and these Jeffrey Campbell babies, I knew I had to have them immediately once I saw them and when they became available online again this morning on Solestruck, I had to to oblige!

I can not wait to wear these Jeffrey Campbell Clinic Boots with some tuff leather pants!

I am adding these beauties to my growing X-mas list as well, I must have these for New Years Eve Celebrations!

These Topshop Parisian Wedge remind me of a variation of Chanel and D&G.

Not that fashion blogger Jane Aldridge of Sea of Shoes really needs my support, but I am thinking of getting these really cute Chloe inspired booties. They are really cute and versatile and not to mention, reasonably priced at $128!

Throw It In the Bag

hi_m8tnce@yahoo.com (GORJESS) — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 06:57:00 +0000

Purchased this beautifully studded, faux suede, fringe medecine hand bag from forever 21 for a mere 16 bucks! I have received so many compliments on this bag everytime I wear it. It's also quite convient as oppose to my oversized bags I usually carry. I am sure my back and shoulders are pleased as well.
