Gotta love Betsey
Posted on September 12th, 2008 @ 2:53 pm

Betsey Johnson is one of my, if not all time favourite designer.  I love her fashion line and it’s great colour and attitude.  No one can say it’s dull, that’s for sure! It’s understandable but unfortunate that the clothes are on the pricier side or I’m pretty sure my whole wardrobe would be by her! I thought I would feature some stuff from Betsey’s line:

Battenburg Strapless Babydoll Dress

I want to reach through my computer screen and grab this dress.  It is by far the cutest dress I have ever seen.  I love the black lacy detail and the pink bow is such a nice touch.  I’m in love.

Wild Leopard Cardigan

This cardigan is three of my utmost loves in one package: (Mini sweaters + Leopard Print + Pink = *^) ).  I love the jeweled buttons too.

Brenna Wedges

I know we’re going into cold weather, but these are so cute!

Snow Leopard Sunglasses

Need I say more?

Lady Jungle Satchel

I had to include a handbag seeing how bag crazy I am. :D  This bag is way over the top just like her, and maybe not so practical, but who said it was about practicality?

Do you like the Betsey Johnson line?  Have any other lines to recommend?

Today’s FFF feature is Houndstooth! I lovelovelove houndstooth, especially on coats. I’ve seen it around a lot recently, on scarfs, hats, sweaters, coats and even shoes. It’s a really distinguishable print and is a classic. Here’s a look at some clothing/accessories featuring houndstooth:

Wool Houndstooth Coat from Fredflare.com

Houndstooth scarf, Wet seal

Houndstooth rain boots, Target (Totally awesome!)

What do you think of the houndstooth pattern in fashion?  Do you like houndstooth in general?

For this week’s Fashion Find Friday, is a pretty exhausted topic, sorry guys, but I’m exhausted, myself!  I promise better next week!

CROCS

Crocs are the brand name of a very distinguishable style of shoe.  It’s often spotted on small kids, housewives at the grocery store, and hospital workers.  Some swear by Crocs for their comfort and convenience, but I think  it’s generally agreed they’re ugly as hell.  Does anyone actually think they are attractive appearance wise?!  If so, that’s a first.

I’ve never owned or tried on crocs, so I can’t say for myself if they are indeed more comfortable than other types of shoes.  (If you’re sacrificing style, which you DEFINITELY are, they better be pretty darn comfortable!!)  Maybe someone can vouch for me on that on how comfortable they are.  I don’t really understand what the holes are for, I guess they distinguish them from normal clogs?   Or maybe for “breathability”.  My conclusion:  Crocs are not benefiting style in any way, I would only recommend for the supposed comfort factor, but not in public.

What are your thoughts on Crocs?

For this week’s Fashion Find Friday I’m posting two things which is sure to draw some varied opinions.  Please feel free to comment and share your views on this week’s Fashion Find Friday.  Whether you love it, hate it or have mixed feelings.  So enough talk. (which is probably good, because my extreme tiredness doesn’t make for great writing anyway!)

WHITE MAKEUP

White makeup is supposed to make you look alert, fresh and awake as opposed to the intense effect of darker makeup. To me, judging by the given picture, it just looks like an eye infection. I’m just not digging the white around the eyes, and though it is much lighter, in my opinion it overpowers the face and the sheen is too much. My verdict is, unless it is a very subtle shimmer in the inner corner of the eye, white makeup isn’t flattering.

UGGS

Uggs are pretty darn controversial in that they’re both adored and despised equally.  Some say they’re adorable and comfy compared to heels and/or flats.  Others say they sound like they are - UGLY!  Personally I’m torn between the two.  I guess it’s a love hate relationship with me and uggs.  I have owned a few pairs (generic brands, not UGG Australia unfortunately) and they’re convenient and comfy, but I think their time is coming to an end.  One thing is for sure - Uggs in Summer and Uggs with a miniskirt are definite no’s!

Okay, there you have it!  I’d love to hear your thoughts on this week’s Fashion Find Friday.  As for me, I will blog once I catch up on some much needed sleep.  Thanks for reading!
