booties and lauren

Hello all!
Been super busy during the month, but i'm back and blogging. What's on today's news? Well it says it in the title doesn't it? First let's talk about booties. Now I've always loved me some moccasin/wallaby inspired booties. These ones are actually mine:


Well it turns out that they're on trend this upcoming season! Hooray for booties! I'm glad they're trending because not only are they cool, they're super duper comfortable.

photo c/o Lauren Conrad's TwitterNext on the list: Lauren Conrad. Thought she was done with reality TV life? Guess again friends! She's going to be back on MTV with a new reality show that'll follow her as she launches her latest line. It'll be a sort of "mockumentary" if you will. With lots of drama as most MTV reality shows have. We'll see how it goes, I guess.


QUESTION OF THE DAY:
What do you think of Lauren Conrad. It's not news that she basically used the Hills as a catalyst for her career. Fair? Not fair? Some people could say the same thing about Project Runway. So many students/designers now think they can set their professional lives into hyperspeed by using the televised media to launch their careers; as opposed to doing it the "old fahsioned" way. What say you?

Alas, it's the start of a new semester, a new semester of blogging. I really wish I could have blogged more during the summer but I have been busy. "With what?" you may ask. Well, I started an internship over the summer with a designer named Minnie Mortimer. Familial history aside, she's so great to work with and I'm having a great time learning on the job, and speaking of job it just so happens that she's offering me one at the end of my internship session. Excited? You bet I am! If you want to look at her items click here and enjoy.

Aside from the internship I've been loafing around and started a collaboration with a friend of mine for a cute little collection, images to follow soon, I hope.

Well since I'm back I'm here to offer you the news as I get it, offer my opinions, and I won't forget the question of the day :D

In other news:
We love diffusion lines, yes? It's our gateway to the star designers without spending the big bucks. Well rumor has it... Alber Elbaz of Lanvin is going to be the next collaborator for H&M. That's exciting news as Lanvin is incredibly sought after and now, it's going to be available for all of us! Proposed date is September 9, which is quite soon, I'm going to be following fashion news quite frequently to find out for sure. Well, I guess that's all for today I'll think of more things, I promise.

QUESTION OF THE DAY:
New semester, new layout? Maybe. I do love Baptiste as my banner, but perhaps it's time for a change :)
