I scanned the photos from the EMMYS 2010 and was ready to move on when I realized something funny. The women that topped the "worst dressed" blew me away with their originality and the ones that were considered the hottest looked like ridiculous cakes (according to me anyways).
Lea Michele in Oscar de la Renta. Ouch. Cake, CAKE, C A K E ! ! ! (in navy blue but still) (+ greasy and double color hair?!)
Julia Louis-Dreyfus looks like she forgot a piece of fabric somewhere...the cut and sheer part is not flattering at all..might have been a different story on someone else though
BUT
Anna Paquinn was criticized for looking like a matador in this Alexander McQueen number but I disagree. Of course I could be accused of being bias and cheering for her for choosing my #1 designer but I simply believe the dress is stunning and gives her an edge.
January Jones (from Mad Men!!) couldn't choose a better color that's for sure. The dress is bold and I tend to praise the ones that take risks but in this case I truly fell in love.

As time goes by I find my evergreens but also the never-to-be-worn stuff and I decided I should do something about that. I have certain pieces like my leather jacket that I can wear anytime and anywhere and it always saves me on those days when you feel like you don't look good in anything :). I also have big piles of stuff that I won't wear because it was either an impulse buy or it was meant to be used for styling for a shoot and I kind of need to get rid of these because they are taking up so much space that I can't fit my fall outfits in haha. Here's a link to Loli's picks that I will probably update quite regularly. My first listed item to (hopefully) be sold is a pair of Gucci booties from the Babouska collection. I hope I make someone happy!
One of my favorite places to get inspired is COS and their website that is not just offering their collection but is truly inspirational (see the "things" section or the magazine that features real interviews with fashion insiders). I go to COS at Regent Street every time I visit London and I love the one in Berlin too. The designs are so clean that it is easy to combine the things and I personally love their jewellery that is metal and simple but very eye-catching. What I like from the Fall Collection:
My dream necklace,ring,skirt,and a long skirt for the beginning of the fall.
And here is my new buffalo ring I ordered from the UK jewellery brand Galibardy. I love it!
My new Jeffrey Campbell boots from Broadway. How do you like them??? PS: Get the lookbook FW2010 it is worth the loook! I love that kind of photography.
