Introducing E'ener by Yours Truly!

Hey guys, I haven't done any postings in a of couple weeks!! Between sewing & enjoy'n this beautiful weather we've been having I haven't had time. But Happy Spring!!! I have some exciting postings for you all to look forward too! But first, if you haven't already, check out my website for my clothing line E'ener... It's my baby which reflects a true talent that I had discovered nearly 11 yrs ago:-) Of course my original knack for fashion overall -I was just born with! So here's a couple of the pieces, check out the site for the rest at www.eenerdesigns.com & stay tuned!!!!

Ready To Wear

Stacey Dash was spotted at the airport in a VERY colorful color blocked outfit, really Spring forward -which I LOVE! She has great genes because she never seems to age, remember the Clueless days!?! Even though I can tell you what she's wear'n from head-to-toe {Bebe dress, Gucci bag, & slingback Loub's} The picture below actually reminds of her feature Kanye West "All Falls Down" video too, but anyways, I created a very similar look using the same exact Bebe dress, in which is the key piece! Happy shop'n:-)

Wraps For GAP

In the 1970's Diane von Furstenburg introduced a piece for women to wear that would eventually become pivotal in the fashion world -wrap dresses! Now DvF has teamed up with babyGAP & GAPKids to introduce a line for the 14 & under young ladies in training! The line debuts March 15, which will consist of funky & colorful printed wrap dresses along with leggings, shirts, mini jackets, and sandals! Furstenburg said this about the collaboration, "It is never too early to start empowering young girls to become the women they want to be". Suuper cute!!

Couture Level Flow

As you all know Kanye West launched a clothing line last Fall that debuted in Paris at fashion week. What you may not have known is, those fabulous bead encrusted and wool shoes that were worn by models such as Chanel Iman, were designed by the oh so famous Giuseppe Zanotti!! And know that are going to be distributed in Collete, an upscale French retailer for $5,800!!! I loved these shoes ever since I first saw them on the runway for Spring 2012, but that price tag is crazy, yet it's expected. I'm anxious to see what he comes up with next tho, I think he's extremely creative and all of his work truly embodies his personality! He's definitely in his zone!

Frugal Friday

Just like shoes, you can never have too many... And no, I'm not talk'n about spots! I'm referring to handbags and clutches! A little something for the leopard lovers like myself;-) Happy Friday & Happy Shopping:-)

Strut or Stomp

I haven't done this post in a while and since I stumbled across these Balenciaga's from the SS/2012 collection, I figured why not! Now I LOVE the overall architectural structure of these heels, more so the color combinations! With a price tag starting at $2,850 how much use do you think you could honestly get out of these? I'm sure your mind instantly thought of different outfits lol... Are they more for work or play?! Hhhhmmm.... Strut or Stomp?

Pucker Up For A Cause

Singers Nicki Minaj and Ricky Martin has joined the list of other famous artist & celebs to contribute to the charitable cause of fighting AIDS for MAC Viva Glam. Nicki's product is a satin lipstick called "Bright Yellow Pink" which sells for $17.50, while Ricky's un-tinted lip moisturizers sells for $18, and of course all the proceed go towards the renown MAC AIDS Fund. The organization launched in 1994 and since then has raised $235 million dollars. Celebrities such as Missy Elliot, Fergie, Lady Gaga, and many others have lent a hand in completing this mission.
