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 Fashion Find Friday, I’m wondering if anyone shares my love of animal prints (fake, of course!).  I think they’re really fun and work very well on a range of clothing, shoes and accessories.  Myself, I own a pair of flats are cheetah print, and also my duvet cover is cheetah print.  But of course it’s not limited to just the kitties.. I also love zebra print.  I’m not sure why, but I’m not too fond of giraffe print. Here’s some fashionable things that showcase animal prints:

Dooney and Bourke Zebra Print Handbag (Only a mere $450! )

Asos Leopard Print Open back top (I WANT THIS!!)

American Apparel Zebra print leggings

(It’s funny, before I even saw the name I knew A.A would have made these!)

There you have it, what do you guys think of what I featured here?  What do you think of animal prints used in fashion?

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?

This week’s Fashion Find Friday is Bubble Skirts

Bubble skirts are difficult to figure out. They have the ability to be cute, sophisticated and stylish or frumpy and disheveled depending on the length, color and who wears them. I’ve seen a few bubble skirts that work perfectly, and look really nice - but I’ve seen many more that are quite frankly disastrous! Here’s a look at a few:

This could easily be the most hideous bubble skirt of them all.  I unfortunately don’t know the brand or “designer” but there’s a number of things I don’t like about this skirt.  The skirt is much too puffy at the bottom and would resemble a huge diaper.  The colours and pattern reminds me of an 80’s workout suit.  While it is an amusing, erm, piece of attire I don’t think it works, at all!

The bubble skirt above is much different.  For one, it is a safer solid brown colour as opposed to a technicolor mashup (see first).  The skirt is also longer in length and the “puff” less obvious.  Some would say this skirt is boring, but I personally like it and think this is the only way bubble skirts do work nicely - toned down and understated!

This third bubble skirt is a nice compromise between the two.  It’s a satin black that is a bit more dramatic then the brown but is still tasteful.  The little bows throughout add interest and are super cute.  The bottom is definitely defined but somehow works, I think because of the length of the skirt.  I could definitely see this skirt dressed up with some black stockings and a nice top.  I think this is my favourite of the two (I’m not even acknowledging the first one from now on )

What is your opinion on the three bubble skirts featured today?  Do you like bubble skirts in general?  Why or why not?  Do you own any yourself?  Please share your tastes and if you liked this, please help me out by stumbling my FFF series!  Thanks
