Who: Ralph Lauren
What it made us think of: Dustbowl farms
What we liked: Denim fitted blazers, suits, knickers, white chiffon
What we didn't: Overalls, distressed boyfriend jeans
Who: Naeem Khan
What it made us think of: Turn of the century Turkey gone twee
What we liked: The pink looks, the purple looks, sparkles, bubble skirts
What we didn't: Since this show doesn't have detail shots, we can't tell if the black suiting is printed or embroidered (but we don't like it either way).
Who: L'Wren Scott
What it made us think of: A beautiful woman in Det. Emerson Cod's office, hoping he can find her dear lost sister.
What we liked: Retro cuts, a sequin cardigans, huge neck ruffles, white suits, feathers, raspberry, hats, jackets...everything
What we didn't: Are you kidding? This show is so perfect, I nearly cried.
Who: Oscar de la Renta
What it made us think of: Egypt, safaris, church picnics in Oklahoma
What we liked: Lace, marine blue, fab belts, orange and olive, coats, the bags
What we didn't: That some people consider OdlR a stuffy brand for older women, when it's clearly classics for every woman.

Maybe it's because the model looks vaguely similar, but I could picture most of the De La Renta looks on Natalie Portman. The antithesis of stuffy and matronly.

Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

Best of all, the earrings I've featured here today all cost only $12.95. (Although the shop sells some other higher priced goods).

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at ...
