♥ BIG HAIR AND PLASTIC RED LIPS AT MARC BY MARC JACOBS FALL 2013 ♥

I just thought I'd do a quick post on one of my favorite makeup and hair looks from the season thus far...the big ass air and plastic plastic red lips at Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2013. I absolutely loved it. I wish I had somewhere to go where I could wear my hair really big like this. It's a look I more associate with a Sonia Rykiel show...I always love the hair at her shows. But It worked so well here with these looks...that very late 40s/early 50s sock-hop vibe. I also loved those uber uber plastic red lips...and I was actually looking for the new Rimmel Apocalips lip laquers the other day so I could replicate this makeup. (I couldn't find them...yet.) I would love it if straight irons would go out of fashion and gigantic big hair came back again as it was in fashion in the 70s disco and the 80s metal eras. :)♥

MY FAVORITE LOOK OF THE COLLECTION.

loving this. this is so so me. though my hair is much lighter now.

she could just as easily be wearing a tube top or a cut-off acdc t-shirt with that hair.

♥ GALITZINE FALL 2013/14 DESIGNED BY SERGIO ZAMBON ♥

I was looking forward to seeing the new Sergio Zambon collection, because if you read this blog or have been following this blog, then you know I love this designer's vision. You can see some of the older posts on him here. But Paris Fashion Week is upon us (YEA!), and I haven't seen the collection. So I ended up doing some research and found out his debut with the house of Galitzine was this season. What I read is that they're known for their "pajama palazzo" concept...I don't know a thing about the house or anything about pajama palazzo (which I guess means they're known for their palazzo pants?), but I do love the very very (always) 1960's vibe that Sergio instills into everything he does (for women). Here are a few bits I could find about the debut capsule collection online. (And the Makeup Monday post will go up a bit later today...it's a good and long one...or two.)♥

♥ SUNDAY MATINEE ♥ DOLCE AND GABBANA FALL 2013/14 SHOW ♥

I know tonight is Oscar night and I normally do an Oscar fashion post or film or something...but this Dolce and Gabbana Fall 2013/14 show was uh-may-zing! They really know how to kill it when it comes to Italian fashion. I own a couple of things by them. My favorite being the most perfect and skin tight very very Sophia Lauren meets Bardot 1960's pencil skirt. It's been loaned for a lot of fashion shoots and commercial shoots (when I was in New York) because it's just that amazing. It looks like something out of a drawing or film. But I would definitely love love love to own anything from this show...especially all the sparkly pieces and those high platform shoes. Just gorrrrrgeous!

Happy Oscars! It's supposed to be a special one. I am literally around 20 minutes or less (driving) from the venue. And from what I have heard, sounds like they've closed the street off since this morning. Word on the street is they're supposed to be doing it up new-style this year. I just hope someone wears something exciting! Not all boring boring boring and those boring updo's.♥

♥♥♥ PRADA FALL 2013-14 SHOES GO DISCO ♥♥♥

Let me break it down for you...if you hate disco and anything disco, but you love the majority of the shoes from the Prada Fall 2013/14 collection, then I am sorry to tell you, sweetie, that you love disco. Because those shoes are WAY WAY disco. That said, I didn't totally get this collection. I didn't get the baby shades of pink and blue gingham prints...for Fall. I didn't get the giant fur trimmings (I think that's kind of cruel and a total waste of a life...I mean, I don't know if you need to hang  dead animal on your arm cuff necessarily...and I guess I should say I don't buy new fur. I have fur and it's all vintage. But I wouldn't buy new fur probably...and not something where it's needlessly at the cuff. It's a waste of a life to me. I dunno...it was just weird to me.)...

I also liked SOME of the shoes and hated some of the others. And I really dislike that tire-track bottom on some of the shoes because it makes them look really low-end and ugly. But there were a few that I loved so much. Another thing I want to point out is how much these shoes resemble Marc Jacobs' shoes from around like 10 years ago. I actually own a few, they have the same shape, the same height, that same disco vibe (and anyone who knows MJ shoes, knows they look a lot at old pics of Donna Summer for inspiration). ♥

so hot. so disco. so high up! i'd feel tall in these! these are pretty hot. they're almost KISS-ish.

i think this coat is pretty. even though i'd never buy it. but at least it's not a waste of an animal in that it's not just a cuff of fur. i don't know how to articulate what i'm feeling here, so don't hate on me.

i love this disco shoe. love it!

so hot.

so pretty.

looks good...that gold and that bag and the black.

so i don't know about this shoe because of the track bottoms. i hate that.

i love this shoe!

i love that black. i hate the bottom of the shoe and that track bottom.

undecided. but i have a marc jacobs shoe that's essential the exact shape of this. only it's black and gold.
