#13. CFDA Awards

There is something about the CFDA Awards that seem effortless and a breeze; both attendees and fashion-wise. This year, CFDA named Marc Jacobs as the Womens Designer of the Year. Yay! I might now know him personally but I'm so glad that he won! For someone who designs three collections a season (LV, Marc Jacobs & Marc by Marc Jacobs), still looks radiant and is that good looking, sure deserves an award as big as that! Anyways, here are some pictures that caught my eye from that night. Enjoy.

I love that the night's fashion has a sense of care-free and simplicity, as if they're all just coming together for a party when really, all the top American designers, along with top models and celebrities, are all coming together under one roof. Love it!

#12. Summer Reads

What would summer be without lounging under the sun and having an easy read at your hand? Incomplete. After reading Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang, by Chelsea Handler, which I must say is a must-read, I have been inspired to create a list of books that I plan to read and finish by the end of the summer. I just started this list so I'm sure it will only continue to grow.

1. Eat, Pray, Love

2. Drink, Play, F@#k

3. Catcher in the Rye


4. The Twenties Girl

#11. Jeffrey Campbell

No words can express how much I want, correction, need these wedges by Jeffrey Campbell. This whole week that just passed, I have been on the hunt for shoes that would even come remotely close to that and to my luck, I have found zilch, squat, nothing. If only I had the money to actually just buy it online to begin with but then again, is there actually a student out there who can afford a $210 (US) pair of shoes? I highly doubt it.

#10. Wizards of Waverly Place

Ever since I moved out here to go to school, I have gotten too much of a dose of the Family Channel because of the two daughters of my family friend that I was forced to live with. They practically know every line in any given Hannah Montana episode. Anyways back to my point of this entry, I was stuck watching Wizards of Waverly Place today with the girls and Harper (Jenny Stone), one of the cspunky characters in the show who has always been known to make up her own outfits, had a dress made out of markers. Clearly Harper is way ahead of her generation and already knows what can be found as a treasure in today's fashion industry.

This dress totally reminds me of that specific dress that is made out of safety pins. Unfortunately, his name has been lost in my head and can't recall it!! Leave a comment and let me know if you know which dress I'm talking about and who it's by! Thanks.

Happy Readings,
Ariane Terado

#9. Cannes 2010

Kate Beckinsale has always been a favourite for me ever since I first watched her on Serendipity. She's always had that femininity and elegance and she's not like any of the celebrities these days who are always on the tabloids and having bad rep on them. So here she is in Cannes this last week in Balmain Fall 2010/2011 during the film presentation Biutiful. Don't those legs look stunning in that side slit?
