Rei Kawakubo: Fashion Designer

Any person into fashion can easily say that Rei Kawakubo is one of their favorite fashion designers. She is an untrained Japanese fashion designer. In 1973 she established her own company, Comme des Garcons Co. Ltd in Tokyo and opened up her first boutique in 1975. Most of her clothes were for woman so she made a new men's line in 1978. Then 3 years later she started presenting her fashion lines in Paris each season, which then lead to a new boutique in 1982 in Paris. Her designs are mainly specialized in anti-fashion, austere, and sometimes deconstructed garments. During the 1980's most of her clothes were mainly in black, dark grey, and white. Rei created an uproar at her debut fashion show in Paris where some journalists labeled her clothes as 'Haroshima Chic." Since then she has added more color to her clothing. Reis' designs have inspired many other late designers such as Martin Margiela, Ann Demuelemeester, and Austrian designer Helmut Lang. I wonder what it'd be like wearing one of her designs. They have so much artistic feel to them, something I haven't seen in a long while.

Doc Martens, can I say fabulous?

The fabulous Doctor Martens have made it again! Over trying for years to get them back in fashion they finally are. Honestly ever since I've seen them I've been dying to own a pair! Celebrities such as Agyness Deyn have helped them come back into the fashion world. Would you ever wear them? They're a big fashion staple to me. They go good with every outfit! Dr. Martens. What do you think, a yes or no? Are they fabulous or not so much?
Sanrio Dr Martens! How cute :)


My favorites!

Can't get enough of yellow?



For some strange reason yellow's one of my favorite colors. Many think the color's ugly but for some reason I'm really attracted to it! Well, at least I feel better now that it's on the runway.

1st Day of Highschool

Hey loves! Today was the first day of high school!! It was really different from middle school, there were a ton of people! It was super crowded and I got lost again and again. I met a couple of people so that's good. I mean, it's the first day of middle school! There's nothing I can do to make the day any better! The school has TONS of people! I had to keep asking people where to go because I was lost several times, like I said before! So now I have a lot of signing to do on papers! GRR. But whatever. Well, to end the post I shall post a video of one of my favorite bands! MGMT!!! 


Hope you guys also had a nice day at school today!

Goodbye Summer, Hello Highschool




Today is the last day of summer! So many new things have happened this year. I started a blog! That's the biggest change. Since school will of course be keeping me super busy I won't be able to blog as much. But, I will be sure to blog whenever I get the chance! I wonder what 9th grade will be like but I know it's going to be great. Well, as my start of a new year of school I'm going to end the summer with a nice post :)
********************
Vampire Weekend
I was just searching up music on YouTube because I wanted to find a cool new band. I ended up finding Vampire Weekend. They're a really cool band and I really like their music. Their latest album came out in 2010.

You guys might already know them and I might be extremely late at learning about them. Well, I guess this is my goodbye to summer. And my hello to high school :)
BTW, I guess I forgot to mention my one talent. :D Piano! This year I got into a class for it. I've been playing for 6 years. Maybe I can get a career as a pianist or stay into fashion. I don't know yet but I think as I get older I'll know exactly what I want to do.

Philip Treacy: Hat Designer



Last night I was watching Project Runway!! I absolutely love the show :) I really like Gretchen(even though she has an attitude), Andy, and Valerie! I absolutely love their designs! Well last night Philip Treacy, a famous hat designer, was the designers' inspiration this week! They were to each pick a hat of his and design an outfit to go with it! As I saw the hats I instantly fell in love with them! I mean, they're amazing. They're so artistic and different! I would love to see someone wear one of those! I would more likely LOVE to wear one of them. They are just so unique and different! 









The looks from Project Runway were killer




Celebrities such as Sarah Jessica Parker and Lady Gaga are seen wearing his hats.



Here is a video of one of his fashion shows from 1999. I know, kind of a long time ago!

The news with Me...

Hey loves! I'm kind of upset right now....I don't have my internet up for my computer yet! The company for my internet said they're sending us a router....on last Tuesday! I should have it by now...but I don't! I should have patience but I don't..UGH....So, im really sorry loves that I haven't been able to put a new post up, with pictures!!! I promise, when I get my internet I shall make a post that will knock your socks off :) Just hope you guys understand! Ohh! And I'm very sorry my Juicy Pictures didn't show up! It upsets me as well...Well anyways, today I went to my school to get my schedule all figured out. I'm most likely taking Keyboard( Piano, im an expert, been playing for 6 years? Keyboard sounds kinda childish to me...), and acting! I chose the academy of Visual and Performing Arts! I hope this leads me to a great career...I don't know what to do yet! Im SO into fashion but my heart's also at piano...well, hopefully as I get older the answer will be revealed to me! Today I realized that school starts in a week! I'm super pumped but I'm also a little scared! Already!! I don't know anyone and I'm starting high school! Gosh. I feel old. But if I say that all of you guys will feel old too? Maybe not. Well, sometime this week my sister's giving me another photoshoot! But I won't be able to put the photos up until I get my computer working. Hopefully i'll have it before school starts! Oh! I almost forgot! Do you guys have any advice with school? Like anything will help! When school starts I really hope I'll still have time to blog! :) Well, sorry this post doesn't have any pictures! HOPEFULLY, I will get my computer sooner or later. It's been too long!!!
