Celeb Style: Weekend Flicks and Cool Kicks

Hello all!

Here's some cool things I saw over the weekend in Men's fashion. Right now a friend of mine asked me to style him for an event he's going to and he's basing his whole look off of his new sneakers, Nike Pewter Foamposites. So while i'm thinking of ideas for that it inspired me to do post on celebs and what sneakers they're wearing recently. So here's some cool photos I found of celebs over the weekend.

 Big Sean and Curren$y at MTV Studios wear Jordan IIIs

(check out Big Sean's denim jacket, it's pretty dope)

Diggy Simmons also wearing Jordan IIIs and his pops Rev Run. 

{we all know Rev Run only rocks one type of kicks! :) }

Style Society Inquiries: Wedding Ideas

"So my best friend from college is getting married and she has asked me to be the Maid of Honor ( Woo hoo) and now she has asked me to help pick the bridesmaid dresses. She wants me to give her some suggestions. She wants the dresses to be violet (purple) and she is leaning toward a short dress or cocktail style but she isn't sure yet.So I thought I go to the style society and see what you had to say about some of the dresses I found before I give my suggestions to the Bride to be."

Here are the dresses that I chose out of the ones she showed me. I told her short bridesmaid dresses were a great idea and I also love that she chose violet for a summer wedding because its atypical.

I hope this helps!

Celeb Style

This week's celeb style favorite is Miss Lauren Conrad. She was at CoverGirl's 50th Anniversary celebration in West Hollywood. I love this soft beige, boxy shift dress she is wearing. Her diamond bangles and Jimmy Choo gladiator shoes definitely complete the look

Cyber Monday!!!!

So if you didn't know already, today is "Cyber Monday." This day was established about 5 years ago as the unofficial kick off to holiday shopping. It's always the Monday following Thanksgiving. The deals are just as good as Black Friday and you don't have to deal with all of the chaos and aggressive Black Friday shoppers. Plenty off stores have great deals such as Apple, Levi's, Forever 21, Lord & Taylor, DSW and Sephora, just to name a few. So are you going to do any Cyber Monday shopping today?? Comment and let me know of other stores with deals today.

Celeb Style Emmy's

This Week's Look

Aug 30 - Sept 3

Who: Lea Michele (of hit show Glee)

What she wore: Oscar de la Renta midnight blue gown with multi-color diamond Lorraine Schwartz necklace and satin Swarovski clutch.

Definitely my favorite gown of the evening. The Navy Blue compliments her in so many different ways, her skin tone, the color in her hair. Bravo Lea!
