Obsession: Rihanna

Fashions the word... that every magazine Rihanna has been atop of illustrates. She has been an enormous obsession to vast portions of the world, just not quite to me. Like her song Umbrella, I feel as if she has been overplayed. She has been on one, too many covers. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly admire her determination to be on every top fashion magazine's cover, but I think it is getting old. We are in desperate need of more new faces like Leighton from Gossip Girl, Alexis Bledel from Sisterhood of the Traveling Pant's 2, or Kristen Stewart from Twilight. Rihanna has been seen as the cover girl for Teen Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Elle, Glamour, Seventeen, Fabulous, Allure, and most recently InStyle. There are several others, not including the foreign magazines. Take it as you want, although I'm kind of done with all of it. Rihanna is beautiful and has exceptional style, but how many times can you interview and write about a pop/R&B artist before it gets dull?
Am I wrong? I'm willing to stand corrected; nonetheless I'll still be bored with her.

I will be gone for a few days. I am going beach camping and then flying to vacation in Canada. Yippee for me. I'll still be able to comment everyone back, for I am bringing my macbook, but I probably won't make that many new posts. Sorry and I hope I will be able to maintain all my royal readers!

Obsession: "The Interns: Fashionistas"

Fashions the word… that would instantly come to mind when I look at the cover of The Interns: Fashionistas. Gossip Girl is on break, so why not take a peek at this fashionable, drama-filled book. This would compel to anyone with an a la mode mindset. I was roaming through the book store, scouting for an appealing fashion themed novel. As soon as I laid my eyes on The Interns, I picked it up and started reading. It was utterly alluring, completing one chapter after another at light speed. Before I new it, I terminated the entire book. Any veteran or aspiring fashion intern, like me, would completely idolize this book. It well may be an overly dramatized version of an intern’s life, but it is still amazing. I adore how the author depicted New York City. I even find myself casting actors to play these entertainingly witty characters. As I said in a previous post, “I'm definitely not a reader,” although this book totally changes my perspective on the whole situation. I am now a strong believer of fashionable reading.
To sum it all up, Chloe Walsh is a fantastic writer and I am extremely anxious to read what happens next in The Interns: Truth or Fashion. I just wish they would put a male intern is this series!
Have you read this? What did you think?

I had a huge urge to write this post right away. Please still look at the post on Teen Vogue below. VV

Obsession: Cheap Monday

Fashion's the word... that would exactly be used to portray Cheap Monday. I undeniably admire this clothing line. I also idolize their style and punk like aspect. Being highly known for mostly jeans, they have a lot to live up to with their clothing. I genuinely believe they exceed any expectation. In addition, Cheap Monday's past entirely intrigues me. They started as just a weekend store that specialized on designer denim, in which they also sold secondhand clothing. It is really unbelievable what they have grown into since 2000, when that weekend store was first opened. For the want of cheaper yet still fashionable jeans, this whole phenomenon started. Everything changed and expanded when the glove fitting denim first hit the market in 2004. Since then, they have become unstoppable, putting spectacular jeans and extremely fashionable apparel on the market. Even without any traditional marketing, Cheap Monday has become a widely known brand throughout the world and can be found being sold in 1000 stores.
Want to Buy? Urban Outfitters is a huge carrier of Cheap Monday. Although, H&M retails some of their collection too.

Obsession: Colored Denim

Fashion's the word… that would absolutely represent colored denim in the 70s/80s. This trend started to reappear around last year and I was completely appalled by it. I felt that since it was thought of around 30 years ago, that it should stay there. After seeing the trend revolving around me for quite a while, I started to feel warmer towards the idea. I then actually bought a pair of maroon Kill City jeans from Urban Outfitters. Beyond buying the colored pair of jeans that fit me like a glove, I have become obsessed. Since seeing my style widened by this phenomenon, I suggest that everyone give it a chance. This trend has been seen represented by celebrities like Rhiana, Fergie, Ashlee Simpson, and the Jonas Brothers.
WANT TO BUY? Colored denim is sold in an abundant amount of stores. The most obvious retailers that come to mind are Hot Topic and Urban Outfitters.

Obsession: Anne Hathaway

Fashion's the word... that would absolutely be used to explain Anne Hathaway. She is truly one of my most favorite actresses, appearing in movies like Becoming Jane, Havoc, Get Smart, and above all The Devil Wears Prada. Not only is she a great actress, but she definitely puts her mark in the world of fashion. It is said that the movie, The Devil Wears Prada, put her in the minds of people as a fashionable actress. I wouldn't disagree, but she does unmistakably work up to the expectation of her character, Andy Sachs. She certainly looks utterly stunning at every public appearance. Hathaway has been seen wearing many designer dresses, such as a beautiful feathered dress by Bill Blass at the premiere of Get Smart. I absolutely love the modesty and timidity of her style, although she says that her personal wardrobe is something she "can't get right" and instead prefers "doing things she loves".
EXTRA FACT! She was raised as a strong catholic and wanted to become a nun, until she found out her brother was gay.

Obsession: Ray-Ban Wayfarer Sunglasses

Fashion’s the word that comes up in my mind when you say, Wayfarer Sunglasses. Like Aviators, these glasses were first introduced to pilots, but right when they were released the public, they became a huge success among celebrities. Lindsey Lohan, Madonna, the Jonas Brothers, Ashlee Simpson, and the Olsen Twin are just a few seen sporting this fashion forward accessory. Of course, these glasses are made in Italy. These glasses are also made in the same authentic plastic design as they were in 1952, when they were initially introduced.
Want to buy them? I’ve bought Wayfarer Sunglasses from many stores, maybe even too many to recall. The most obvious places I remember are Urban Outfitters, Bloomindales, and H&M. They probably are sold in many stores of your local mall, too.
