It Girl!!

Dear Lovers,
I'm extremely sorry I've been M.I.A for so long. Once again my crappy laptop has failed me and I've taken it to MircoCenter. It's currently recovering and until then I'm using my mom's and I promise, I'm going to try to be a little more attentive to Truffles. Also, I have a new blog coming out soon called bubblegum whispers. There's only one post on it now so if you want you can check that out as well. That other blog will just be my takes on accessories and have a whole bunch of pics of me in my fave outfits but at the moment it's still a work in progress. Also, with it being Mother's Day weekend let's give a giant hands up to all the mother's out there. I know I'm blessed with a pretty amazing one. Anyways let's get down to the reason for this post. I haven't done an "It Girl" in awhile so I feel that I should do one today. This girl has always been one of my favorite stylistas. She's got the Bohemian/hippie look down to a T. Every time I see her picture in a magazine she's always looking chic without even trying. Of course I'm talking about non other than Miss Vanessa Hudgens. With her new breakup with longtime boyfriend, Zac Effron, the girl is looking better than ever. If she's feeling down about the breakup, she's as good of an actress as anyone thought because she's not showing it. I'm extremely obsessed with the way this girl accessorizes. She's either got fingers full of beautiful rings or hair filled with either a feather or a braid. I know, hair with feathers? It sounds more weird than it actually is but taking one glance of Vanessa in her usual attire, you're bound to reconsider. In my book the girl has dubbed the title of bohemian princess. Her effortless style has seemed to emerged like something out of the 70's. She could definitely give Janis Joplin a run for her money. I can officially say, I'm obsessed!

Color Block

Hey Readers,
I know I already posted something yesterday but I wanted to post a little something extra for being absent for so long. Yesterday I said that the bohemian trend is one of my favorites of Spring and it is but there is another trend that I am also having an affair with. That trend would be Color Blocking. I adore how sophisticated and utterly chic it looks when it's all put together. I've heard about the trend numerous of times but I think I fell in love with it when I laid eyes on the Louis Vuitton 2011 Spring collection. If you know what I'm talking about, which I know all you fashionista's out there do, then I know you're just as in love as I am. So take a look at some of the pics below and you tell me if cheating with this trend is a good as idea as I think it is. Hope you all have a great week!

Bohemian Bound

Dear Readers,

Did you miss me? Hopefully you did because that would just be plain depressing if you didn't. I'm kidding of course but just like I've promised, I have a new post for you all! Lately, I've been embracing the bohemian vibe because I feel that since we're coming into the warm weather, it's a key unsaumble. Not only have I been embracing the ultra cool style but I've noticed my fellow fashinistas around the world have been too! Everything from the peacock feathered necklaces to silk headwraps have been seen worn by only the truest if hearts who are willing to pull this look off. I find the look extremely low-key and relaxing as well as comforting. Californian's aren't the only ones who are able to pull off this tranquilizing trend. Even though I was inspired by a California girl who knows this look backwards, forwards, sideways, and any other way in between. Yes, I am talking about the one and only Miss Rumi Neely. That girl can do no wrong and I literally bow down to her. She speaks, eats, and breathes this trend as well as knowing it my heart. Plus, everytime she trys the trend out, she rocks it every single time. Which let's face, is 100% of the time. The look is farely easy to pull off and with the help of H&M, you can't go wrong. Honestly, everytime I walk through those glass double doors that belong to H&M, I know I'll find something bohemian inspired. So wheather you're wearing a maxi skirt paired with loose knit top and a headwrap or a flowered dress paired with a peacock feathered necklace and a headband made out of daisies, you're bound to pull the look of well if not perfectly. So go ahead, give the look a try and you can thank me later because I know for a fact, you'll head-over-heels in love with this trend just like I have. Until next time!

P.S I've decided to go by my actual name istead of my nickname because when my friends read my blog, they have no idea whi this "Andy". Despite the fact that they're the ones who give me the nickname in the first place.

MIA much?

Dear Readers,
As much as it pains me, I have been away from you for too long. Let me tell you a short and brief story. My laptop has been infested with a virus. Thus, making it impossible for me to log on to and making it even harder to get in touch with my files. Our home P.C runs extremely slow so that's out of the question. I've taken my laptop to BestBuy and their doing everything they can to save it's life, send your prayers. So I'll have a brand new post soon and in the meantime sorry for being MIA. Hope you all can forgive me and hope to get back to blogging about the one thing that makes everything in this world worth wild (or at least in mine) FASHION!.

It Girl

Dear Readers,
I hope all of you had a good week! Another week has come and gone and with that we have a new "It Girl". This girl is no stranger to fashion. Fashion and her have a ongoing and passionate relationship. She is always complimented on her impeccable fashion sense and is always seen looking fabulous. She has been on numerous T.V shows including having her own called "It's On With Alexa Chung. If you don't know who I'm talking about by now, shame on you. She isn't afraid to take risks when it comes to fashion and that is why she is this weeks "It Girl"! I am talking about the one and only Miss Alexa Chung. The British beauty is almost always on a best dressed list and even has a Mulberry purse named after her called the Mulberry Alexa. Now if Mulberry is on board with her, then there must be a reason. Not to mention her collaboration with the indie/urban clothing line, Madwell, was a huge success. Selling collections of which Miss Chung described "sexy tomboy". Yes, sexy tomboy seems to be Chung's wardrobe description and it works for her. I love everything she walks out of the house wearing and wish that I could live in her closet. Although that sounds incredibly creepy, it's completely innocent. I honestly cannot wait to see what she wears next because I'm sure as usual, it will be insanely chic!

Oscars!!

Dear Readers,
Another award season has seem to gone by as fast as it arrived. All the awards have been given out, all the tears cried, and all the speeches said. Don't be too sad because even though the award season is over, there's always fashion. Yes, fashion always seems to fill that huge void inside, well for me at least. All jokes aside, despite another award season down the drain, we still always have fashion. With that said let's talk about fashion at the Oscars this past Sunday night. What, don't pretend that's the only reason you tune into the Oscars. That and watching the hilarious "thank you" speeches. Melissa Leo anyone? So I've listed a couple of stars who I think did justice at the Oscars on Sunday. As usual, I don't post the misses because I feel I can get a little mean. I should post it on another blog, one specified for hideous outfits stars manage to leave the house wearing. Sort of like a Rotten Tomatoes thing. Hmm, we'll see. Anyways lets just focus on the good right now instead of the bad.

1. Anne Hathaway
If you tuned into the Oscars on Sunday, you know that just that name, is enough said. Annie looked stunning in every single one of the dresses she wore last night and she wore a lot. My favorite though would have to be the gorgeous red Valentino gown she wore when she arrived at the Oscars. Red was a big color trend last night at the Oscars and I can't imagine why not. The color itself is simply breathtaking and always a hit in my book. Of course when you wear it head to toe, that's a completely different story. Anyways, the girl looked amazing and I loved the little rose details at the trim of the dress. That made the dress even more beautiful. Mr. Valentino knows his stuff. Everything about Annie's look that night was perfect. There wasn't one bad thing about any of her looks. This star is always head to toe perfect when she leaves the house and she should be. She's got the Rachel Zoe to style her, another fashion icon but we'll save her for another time. 

2. Halle Berry
I adored the gown Halle was wearing on Sunday. The pastel Marchesa gown looked absolutely divine Miss Berry. There was also a ton of pastel colors on the red carpet on Sunday and Berry was key with that trend. I loved how she kept it very simple with the jewelry, stunning. The color goes really well with her skin tone and the silhouette compliments her figure. Not only is the color of the dress beautiful but the detailing is as equally beautiful. The train of the dress is very unique and elegantly made. Marchesa is one of my favorite designers and I love how all the dress are simply alluring. Halle made the right decision to go with one of their dresses. She knows what looks good on her and it pays off because she looked incredibly lovely last night!

3. Gwyneth Paltrow
This is a girl who knows her way around the best dressed list by heart. She's constantly on them and I'm pretty sure will remain to do so. Sunday was no exception for the isanely gorgeous blonde. She made her way onto the red carpet with a gold exquisite Calvin Klein gown. The dress reminded me of something Cleopatra would wear, it was very Egyptian inspired. As soon as she stepped foot onto the red carpet, the air in my entire body was sucked out, it was that good. She looked amazing! Everything was on key, the jewlery, hair, and make-up. It was all perfect. Once again Mrs. Paltrow knows how to turn heads and take breathes away when it comes to fashion.

4. Reese Witherspoon 
 I adored Reese's simple black Giorgio Armani Privé gown. The whole ensemble screamed Audrey Hepburn. Her hair, make-up and subtle jewelry complimented this dress beautifully. I think the dress was perfect for her. Black and white is very in right now. I loved white silk band at the top of the gown and the small train of the dress just perfect. Most people would find this dress to be boring and simple but I find it to be classic and elegant. I loved the whole look and think she made the right choice to go with.

5. Natalie Portman
This girl can do no wrong. She's proven that just because she's pregnant, she can still pull off any look and she looks fabulous while doing it. The Academy Award winner wore a Rodarte violet silk gown that was drenched in Swarovski crystals. She finished off the look with Jimmy Choo heels and Tiffany&Co. jewlery. She was glowing from head to toe and I doubt it was because of her being pregant. The girl is on fire right now and after winning numerous awards for her role in The Black Swan, she doesn't to appear to be stopping anytime soon. Her look on Sunday was absolutely classic and I can't wait to see what she'll do next!

6. Hailee Steinfeld
This 14-year-old has been killing it on the red carpet lately. On Sunday she looked like a little princess in another Marchesa pastel gown. The ankle length dress is perfect for Hailee. Usually you see younger stars trying to pull of an older look. It's refreshing to have a star act her age. I loved the sheer jewel in-crested top and also how it poofs out on the bottom. The detailing is gorgeous as well. Everything about her look is adorable. Her make-up isn't too much, her hair is just right, and her jewelry is the right amount. She pulled this look off perfectly.

It Girl!

Dear Readers,
So yet another week has gone by as quickly as it started and with that, it means we have a new "It Girl". I'm sure you're all aware who Ms. Rachel Bilson is. Well if you're not familiar with the star/ fashion icon then you need to get educated fast. It's no secret that Bilson has been a style icon for sometime now. She's on every best dressed list and almost every fashion magazine is always doing a story on her. The girl seems to have made her way in the fashion world but if you knew who she was, you'd already knew that. Every time she walks out of the house, she's never seen in anything hideous. Not to mention she's dating one of the most gorgeous men in Hollywood, Mr. Hayden Christiansen. It seems this girl has absolutely no troubles to worry about, she's got it all! I predict big things happening for her, maybe a fashion line in the works? Oh my lord, that would be a dream come true and I know I wouldn't mind wearing a an outfit designed by Ms. Bilson herself, who wouldn't?
