Who: Blumarine
What it made us think of: Tie-dye
What we liked: Lots of pretty bright basics
What we didn't: Some of the tie-dye was overdone
Who: Dsquared²
What it made us think of: Going to both camp and prom on the same runway
What we liked: Mix of girly dress, demin shorts, and studded shoes
What we didn't: The mix didn't always work. Many things just looked trashy.
Who: Iceberg
What it made us think of: Mickey and Minnie Mouse giving complete tours of Disney World in a collection of awesome costumes (I mean this in a very good way)
What we liked: Great jackets, pretty dresses, buttons, pops of color mixed with dark nuetrals
What we didn't: The Mickey Mouse themed clothes were a little literal, but I have a soft spot for Mickey.

I liked the styling in the Dsquared²
show, but not the hats-they remind me of trucker hats.

I loved, loved, loved the colors in the first picture! But I agree, trucker hats and high fashion DO NOT mix!

Love that last look with the wide belt!

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.

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

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

Summer. It's coming soon with it's sunshine, high temperatures, picnics, festival, barbecues, pool parties and so many more events that require being outside in the heat. If you're shopping in any stores right now, you might have noticed that all the so called sun dresses are made of itchy, plastic-y, hot material. They look summery, but they'll bake you. Worry not, I've found a cotton summer dress that can get you through the whole summer for less than $20. Add a cropped cardigan or short-sleeve blazer for the office. Don some walking sandals, a fun sunhat and cute sunglasses for a day the fair. Dress it up with high heels, jewelry and a cute wrap for evenings. The possibilities are endless. It's even cute when you layer two different colors. The fit is beautiful. Compose of 95% cotton and 5% spandex, it fits close to the body through the top and flares gently, which means it works even if it doesn't line up perfectly with you waistline. This dress is
