Fashion Spotlight - Bright & Bold Handbags For Summer, The Hermés Birkin Bag In Lime Is My Favorite & A Look At The Nicki Minaj Collection For KMart!

                                                                                         (L-R) Petra Ecclestone and Kim Kardashian 

 Happy Friday! It's all about color this season and I find this bag to be the most beautiful structured handbag EVER! I did a post weeks ago on my dream handbag which is the iconic Hermés Birkin Bag. They of course have tons of colors to choose from but being that it's summer, I can only gush over this color so many times...Most of us girls dream daily of having this bag and there is nothing wrong with that at all! Real or Fake you can spot them almost anywhere and that's why I choose this specific bag, it gives a very clean polished look. Now there are many bright and bold handbags out there for every woman to choose from I just wanted to give you a glimpse of this one in particular...*sigh* Gosh this bag is gorgeous! What's one bag you are loving for this season?! XO Andrea

 

I think I might have fallen back in love with some pieces for Nicki Minaj's upcoming collection for KMart. She Instagramed a few pictures earlier and I will be honest, last month when I seen a sneak peak at her collection I wasn't really feeling it but this bodycon dress is gorgeous and perhaps it being at KMart means affordable as well. And how cute are those velour trackpants with the rhinestone print?! GORG. What do you think of her collection so far?! XO Andrea

Fashion Spotlight - Andrea's Top 3 Summer Fashion Staples!

Happy Friday to you all! It's officially summer so I wanted to give you my pick on whats not only in my closet but I think these are the basic essentials to complete your wardrobe this summer! Those three items are 1. A Colorful Statement Clutch 2. Basic Sandals and 3.Pencil Skirts.So, first off you should have a clutch in your wardrobe anyways (if you don't go and BUY ONE), to me know they are more essential than carrying around one of my classic handbags and add a little bit of spark to your look... In other words MORE GLAM! Second key item are basic strap sandals, I say in every single color. Since it's going to be really huimd out no matter where you live, I'm sure you won't want to walk around in pumps all day.. Your feet need breathing room and I think having basic sandals in your closet are good. The main colors are Black and Nude but for those who have a very colorful wardrobe, color-cordinate your looks! Lastly, I know that pencil skirts have been around for years but at end of last year I bought 5 of them in different colors and re-discovered my love for them. Not only are Pencil skirts sexy but personally, I don't like wearing capris or jeans throughout the summer, sometimes I wear shorts but 98% of the time you catch me in a skirt including maxi's as well. My style is Chic, Glamorus and Sexy 365 days of the year and this was a glimpse of how you can achieve that! I hope you all have a wonderful Friday & What are your Top 3 Summer Fashion Staples?!! XO Andrea

So last night Jennifer along with other fashion socialites attended the 4th Annual amfAR Inspiration Gala New York at The Plaza Hotel in NYC. How stunning is her blue sequin piece??!! This dress is from Tom Ford's 2011 Spring Collection and has been worn by Lily Cole & Liberty Ross as well, but Jennifer rocked it  better. I seen all the red carpet looks and wasn't really feeling any except hers. Jennifer knows how to shine on the red carpet, in her form-fitting body hugging designer gowns and I LOVE it.

Fashion Spotlight - Heidi Klum's VERSACE Pinstripe Dress

Let me just start of saying Heidi Klum is gorgeous and of course Happy Friday! My 19th birthday is almost here and the feeling is just bare. But anyways today we'll discuss Heidi's outfit that she wore at the Photo Call for Germany's Next Top Model at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in Berlin, Germany. Heidi LOVES VERSACE! Over the years at a lot of the events she has attended, chances are her dress is by Versace. There's nothing wrong with it at all, everyone has there own favorite designer and in this case I see why. This dress and shoes which are both by Versace is so GLAM and those fringe sandals are just TDF. Her jewels and accented smokey eyes were definitely a plus to this look. What do you think of this look?! XO Andrea

Fashion Spotlight - Lusting Over One Of My Dream Handbags (Iconic Hermès Birkin Bag)

Yay, Friday is here...and I hope you all have a had a successful week and your going to have a wonderful weekend! So for Friday Fashion Favorite, I decided to share one of my dream handbags with you which is the Iconic Hermès Birkin Bag. Now I know you've seen tons of celebrities rocking these bags from Victoria Beckham, Kardashians & Hilary Duff and the list goes on and on, but this bag is structured perfectly which I LOVE! Retailing for about $10K-80K  depending on different textures that you'd want like for example the crocidle & this bag is not only glamorous but is one of the best structured bags you can have. For the picture above I found on google of this one in particular, its a Hermès 35cm Birkin in  Rose Jaipur. This particular color was released last summer (2012) and the color is a bright-neon pink, How pretty is that! I believe they released a collection titled 'The Candy Series' which I love the most because of the fun colors like the ones below but no matter what color you lust over either way this bag makes a statement and I believe is one every girls dream- bag list. What's on your dream designer handbag list?! XO Andrea
