Project Design: Detroit Auto Show

By -
Project Design is our own friendly competition where we put together collection of independent designers for you to rate on your very own imaginary runway.

I'm off to the Detroit North American International Auto Show today. As a former automotive editor and a lifelong lover of cars/Detroiter (those two things are synonymous), I love the Auto show. I grew up tagging along to classic car shows with my dad and brother. I dream of retro attire to wear to the Woodward Dream Cruise each year. I just love cars. My love for fashion only slightly trumps my love for cars (probably because I can afford several pairs of shoes, but have to live with just one vehicle). But finding automotive inspired fashion? Now that gets me revved up.

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

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

Dramatic Makeup

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.
