What's Going On??

"Where has she disappeared to this time?" you may be asking yourself. Well, there's a few things, first being my laptop was stolen and I lost ALL of my photos files and info.
"But you must have a backup!?" well, no. No I don't.

So new laptop, new start I suppose. Such a bummer. But on to the good news that I'm finally allowed to share!! I hinted to a new line with a super mega celeb a few months ago and I still can't reveal who she is (dangit!!) but I ended up passing on that project anyway. Why? Well for what may be the most exciting project in my career!!
"Better than working with Betsey Johnson?" Kinda.
"Better than working with Gwen!!??" Sorta.

Drumroll please..............

My very own line! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited!!!! Can you believe it!? So I'm obviously very preoccupied with that and with getting it started and whatnot, but I'd really like to share the process with you guys. From concepts to sketches to samples- everything! I obviously have to do it on a bit of a delay so ideas aren't copied and stuff but I can't wait to show you what I'm working on!!







Until then, I do have one favor. I need a name! Now I've asked some friends and they of course said "name it The Shoe Girl" but I don't think that really makes sense for a brand name... What do you guys think?? I'd love suggestions and if you come up with a name that I love you'll forever have bragging rights that YOU came up with the brand name. ;)
Think girly and fun and not too junior sounding. I know that it looks like a food company from my images up there but I want it to have that felling of delicious treats for your feet. I don't know about you but when I see the right pair of shoes I crave it, just like sweets.

I should remind you that I can't use my own name because Celine is already taken and is a well established French high end line. Bummer.

Yippee!! I can't wait for this next adventure!

LOVE YOU GUYS!!

In My Dreams I'm a Ballet Dancer...

I've always had a fascination with ballet. Something so feminine and graceful and at the same time so restricted and disciplined. 
I used to dream of being a ballerina and would always make up little dances and even pretended to be a water ballerina in the pool as a kid. I would always get so excited when someone would catch me dancing and ask if I was a ballerina. 

I am totally mesmerized by Kanye West's Runaway. I've watched it at least 5 times. If you haven't seen it yet, do your self a favor and take 34 minutes and 33 seconds aside to do so. Here are some of my favorite ballerina images...














*fun fact! Did you know that Phillip Lim was Paul Frank's first clothing designer? My hubby worked with him 10 years before anyone knew his name. So cool!


And then of course there is Black Swan. More ballet mania! Such a beautiful and terrifying film. Oh and how I'd love to be Natalie Portman. What an insanely beautiful and talented actress. She trained her ass off to do all the dancing in the film. She did an amazing job.











 I love seeing how films influence fashion. I'm curious to see ballet inspired shoes and dresses and how they're interpreted.I have these Dona Karan Collection ballet shoe inspired heels that I will dig out when I get back. They're pretty cool!

Rockabilly or the So Called Pin- Up Girl Hairstyles

Author: BecomeGorgeous


The rockabilly hairstyle is one of the most sensual and feminine hairstyles, reflecting the most beautiful features of the 40's. It is a rock- and- roll hairstyle which got a hit from the sexy Bettie Page. The hot pin-up model, created a real craze that still lasts in a whole pop culture. It is very popular at the moment, with their main characteristic: the way up high front hairstyle and close at the sides. Bettie Page sported short bangs, which is another nice version of the pi-up girl hairstyle.

Basic Elements of a Rockabilly Hairstyle

First of all, you should know that medium or short haircuts can make the best rockabilly hairstyles.

Another main part of the pin-up girl hairstyle is that you have to get curls or waves along the back part of your hair.

It is a polished look, which needs well hidden hair pins and strong fixing. So make sure you have the proper hair styling products.

Ways to Style Rockabilly Hairstyles

Jennys Pinup Updo

Starting from your curls, you should decide what style you are going to opt for. Tight curls can make a casual look with a back bun and the loose curls can make glamorous big waves in your hair. You can create a huge wave with your bangs or straighten them to get a classic Bettie Page look. Hot hair rollers will do the perfect styling tools for this hairstyle.

Once you got the curl in your long bangs, tease it in the back part of the curl and make the big wave in the front. This will make the main item of your look. Than pull the rest of your hair in the back comb, making it really tight at the sides. Fix it with plenty of hairspray.

For long hair, you have to get pin curls. Get the whole hair curly, and leave it loose with side swept bangs. You can try a comb to, but it will be harder to style because of the length. Finger waves are also a good option. Just make sure you can fix properly the curls into a polished look. The rockabilly hairstyle is very chic and feminine mostly because of it's perfect styling. You can make a French twist hairstyle with all the curls pulled in the front to pin them in large tube shaped waves on your forehead.

The main idea in creating rockabilly hairstyles are the curls. Leave the hair loose, pin it in a French twist and tube curls at the forehead, or make marvelous half updos with tight hair on the sides pulled up in two tube curls and blunt cut bangs in the front, there are endless styling possibilities. Just keep it curly and well polished. Many celebrities opt for this retro hairstyle, because it is edgy yet feminine and classy. Get inspired from the celebrities like: Gwen Stefani, Pink, Rihanna, Jenny McCharty, Dita Von Tesse and many others. Just make sure you find the style that matches your face shape: tight sides for the round faces because of the lengthening effect and loose curls for the long shaped faces to add width.
