Copy Cat

I know everybody who has a fashion blog (which seems to be everyone and their mom these days) loves to dole out fashion advice...alas, I am one of those people!! I would honestly love to answer any fashion questions any of you all have! Don't think I have a holier-than-thou attidtude or anything, but come on, everyone loves getting email! And about fashion? Well that would make my day!!! So ask away loves! My email is mltrusty@uncg.edu. Just have the subject say "fashion question" or something so I won't delete it.


I mean come on guys, who wouldn't trust me with fashion advice???

I love saving money....

So I checked my checking account today...found out I had A LOT more than I thought I did, so, naturally, I spent a chunk of it. HOWEVER! Before you all shun me, let me tell you- I bought $575 worth of lovlies for $89.98!!!!!! HELLS YEAH. And what did I purchase, you may be wondering? I'll tell you:

These heels from Anthropologie were orignally $360, but I got them ON SALE for $49.99


Then THESE Rock and Republic by Victoria Beckham jeans, normally $215, I got for $39.99!


Ahhhh, I love finding a good bargain♥

Neimans!

So, this weekend I went back home to Charlotte for the opening of NEIMAN MARCUS...and while the display of thousands of hanging feather butterflies was beyond gorgeous:

...I have to admit-I wasn't exactly bowled over. Dissapointing, I know! Maybe because it was super-crowded, or maybe I was pouty because it would cost me my next years allowance plus my left foot to afford anything in there besides free perfume samples. Me and my sister were perusing, and perusing some more. The cheapest thing we found were these $295 Marc by Marc Jacobs velvet and patent leather ballet flats:



Then, THIS popped into my vision: These beyond crazy Miu Miu carved wooden platforms- I don't quite know what to make of them...they were surprisingly light but...hmmm



Tell me what you think, loves.

New York Fashion Week, part I (!)

Some highlights (okay. highlights to ME)


Zac Posen, Spring 2007 RTW
Maybe it's the HUGE satin bow, or the jewel tone of the dress But I'm just drawn to this dress. In this case, bigger is definitely better.


Marc Jacobs, Spring 2007 RTW
Those sleeves! Those stripes!! The DRAMA!! I love it.


Marc Jacobs, Spring 2007 RTW
I think the main reason I love this bag is the metallics. But the shape is so timeless that it doesn't matter what color it is.

Dance up a storm, dollface!
