FASHIONABLE MOVIES: Trailer for Lifetime’s "House of Versace"

Set your DVRs fashion lovers for the "House of Versace" movie set to premiere on October 5th at 8/7c on the Lifetime Network. Check out the latest trailer released below!  

FYI-This movie is based on Deborah Ball’s book House of Versace: The Untold Story of Genius, Murder, and Survival. Since I haven't read the book (DISCLAIMER: Please don't judge me--post grad school's completion last month, I've taking a hiatus from reading BUT I have a list of books I plan to read beginning next month) anyway, I'm really excited to watch this movie! Lifetime always gives a pretty accurate portrayal of real-life events, so I know I won't be disappointed. Doesn't Gina Gershon make a stunning Donatella Versace?! The resemblance is striking.   

FASHION FLASHBACK: Clueless (Circa, 1995)

 "Do you prefer 'fashion victim' or 'ensembly challenged'? - Cher

 "I mean I get up, I brush my teeth, and I pick out my school clothes." - Cher

  "You see how picky I am about my shoes and they only go on my feet." - Cher

" Dionne's my friend because we both know what it's like to have people be jealous of us."- Cher

I want that cell phone holder that Cher has! lol! No seriously.... 

 "I know it sounds mental, but sometimes I have more fun vegging out than when I go partying. Maybe because my party clothes are so binding." - Cher

As women we all know this SCENE happens in our room every blue moon.  

 "Sporadically. It means once in a while. Try to use it in a sentence." - Cher

 Remember wearing a crisp white collared shirt under your sweater?! I loved that trend.

 "I mean, ordinarily I would strut around in my cutest little outfits and send myself flowers and candy, but I couldn't do that stuff with Josh." -Cher

We can't forget the infamous one liner quotes:

"AS IF" -Dionne & Cher

"Whatever"- Cher

"What the hell is that?" -Dad

"A dress."-Cher
"Says who?"-Dad
"Calvin Klein."-Cher

 "Oh, no. You don't understand, this is an Alaïa." -Cher 

Happy Friday the 13th! Don't let a number make you superstitious today. Have a great weekend and do something memorable....after all it's summa' time! I'll be celebrating theeee most important man in my life, my daddy's birthday. Cheers to him! Love him to pieces!

FASHION NEWS: The Devil Wears Prada, The Sequel!

I'm super excited to announce that there will be a sequel to the The Devil Wears Prada! The author of The Devil Wears Prada, Lauren Weisberger, is writing a sequel! Let the Fashion Gods say "Amen!" Back in 2003, The Devil Wears Prada became a bestselling semi-autobiographical novel about Anna Wintour and the fashion industry. It went on to inspire the hit 2006 film starring Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway. According to Entertainment Weekly Weisberger is working on Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns, a sequel to her debut novel that became a film classic. Simon & Schuster will be publishing the follow-up in April 2013, just ten years after the original. Isn't this great news?! I've missed Andy and of course Miranda!

The Revenge Wears Prada comes back just eight years after Andy parted ways with Miranda on bad terms in 2006. Andy is now editing The Plunge, a very popular bridal magazine, alongside Emily, her current BFF. While Andy is busy planning her own wedding to her beau, Max, she remains haunted by her former boss, Miranda. Anyone else ready to hear an “Ahn-dre-ah” in the mix?!

Movies have Style & Grace TOO!

Its SO amazing how much movie inspires style and fashion choices these days! Since I was younger I always admired the way people put together clothing and even the way they carried themselves *arch back, sit up straight, chin to the ceiling*....Have you ever just sat back and really appreciated a movie in all its facets? The clothes, make-up, accessories, lights, camera, hair, etc.. I truly thank movie producers & stylists for bringing amazing fashion into my life. iHEART you!

I've compiled a list of my favorite movies that inspire my STYLE & GRACE!


#1. Grease- Me and my sister's love this movie! The singing, the dancing, the snide remarks, the comedy and most of all the OUTFITS! Perfect 1950s movie especially if your a big fan of the "pin up girl" era.

#2. Breakfast at Tiffany's- Ever since High School I've adored the style and charm of Audrey Hepburn. She is a style icon that effected *well she STILL does* so many of my fashion choices. This movie reminds me of old Hollywood glamour and era that could never be replaced.

#3. Heathers- Classic and fabulous movie for all the right reasons. The fashion is sophisticated yet funky, kinda makes you want to walk out the house with BIG HAIR. The well made tailored outfits and matchy blazers/blouses was my life circa 1990...

#4. Clueless-After watching this movie all I wanted to say was "As IF"; "Daddy"; "OH MY GOSH" and "WHATEVER". From the catch phrases, witty charm, stylish outfits and killer heels I was head over heels with this movie. Alot of fashion designers draw their inspiration from this movie because its nothing short of why fashion is necessary! iHEART

#4. Factory Girl- A modern day hippy movie that rocked my socks off. Sienna Miller is brilliant and she is a style star that amazed me *STILL amazes me*. From the fur to the exotic prints and to the funky hair styles this movie is a classic! One of her BEST!

#5. The Devil Wears Prada- What more can I say?! I was in Fashion Heaven when I saw this movie, I must have watched it a million times just so that I could gawk over the Chanel necklace or the never-before-seen Manolo's. If you need fashion inspiration definitely rent this movie!!

#6. Sex and The City 1 & 2- Then there was FOUR....I feel like these ladies taught me alot about myself. I have all the seasons and I watch it almost every week just to see the fashion. If your looking for love, labels, and plenty of sex---well, this is the MOVIE for you ; )
