Creative With Cupcakes

So while looking for some "Back to School" cupcake ideas for our back to school party on Friday for my mom's moms group if that makes sense, we are going to try and attempt to make the ones in the first picture. While searching for more ideas I came upon the ones in all the other pictures. They are gorgeous aren't they way.... to pretty to eat. So thats that.

have a good rest of he weekend and see you tomorrow

Fashion Week...Relaxing?

So according to the "International Herald Tribune" Fashion Week's message has been focused around well relaxing, with loose beachy vibes drawing inspiration from far away places. The reasoning for the relaxing, "tropical prints combined with an easy slouch to evoke less stressful times." "When the economy is so bad and with the horrible things happening all around the world, one gets inspired to create a certain kind of beauty," as designer Narciso Rodriguez told The Associated Press before the shows began. He also promised an "anti-stress" collection later in the week. "When the economy slumps, some designers turn to bright colors and go beyond basics to lure customers into stores." To me this does make some sense. But as the average 15 minute fashion show for a top name designer ranges in the high hundred thousands and well into the millions also the thousands of dollars for on beach inspired dress, the beachy just want to relax vibes our obviously not appointed at the middle or even lower upper class people but the first rowers who can afford the new collection without a blink of an eye. I do see the shows and think wow that's a great idea but do the first rowers really feel the economy's decline, I am sure some do but not enough to stop them from drinking $1,000 champagne while most people don't make that much money in two weeks while people in most countries won't make that in two years. Sorry for the ramble, I actually did enjoy most of the collections yesterday that I have seen pictures of but i guess I just feel like how they say that they inspired a hundred thousand dollar outfit based on uplifting people from the economy failing.

Fashion Week

So New York Fashion week is about to start and in honor of the event I have decided to do a little post on the history of Fashion Week.

Brief History:

"The first New York Fashion Week, then called Press Week, was the world's first organized fashion week. Held in 1943, the event was designed to attract attention away from French fashion during World War 2 , when fashion industry insiders were unable to travel to Paris to see French fashion shows. Fashion publicist Eleanor Lamber organized an event she called "Press Week" to showcase American designers for fashion journislists, who had previously neglected their innovations. (Buyers were not admitted to the shows and instead had to visit designers' showrooms.) Press Week was a success, and fashion magazines like Vogue, which were normally filled with French designs, increasingly featured American fashion."

It's all Good In the Hood

Walmart

So the reason for this post was to show you the awesome Mr. Rogers shirt and to get some feedback on the hoddies. I have started to realize that it is going to get chillier and that my locker is so far away from my bus that I would end up missing it if I had to go get my jacket. So up until I can't stand it anymore I am going to get a hoodie that is portable enough to carry around with me so I won't have to miss my bus. now when the times comes I do need a jacket I don't know what I am going to do but for now this is my solution. so if any of you have a better/funnier solution to share be my guest oh and hoodie selections are also welcome! OK well bye til tomorrow.

So a Fred Flare Post was definitely overdue, just to add my library books are overdue because of my aunt who went away without giving them to me. Sorry library I will have them back next week and I will have the fine in FULL! So school is going OK except I think all of my friends got switched to a different lunch so today I was pretty alone but hey that gives me a chance to read the library books I couldn't because it was at my very book stealing aunt's house for two weeks!! I really miss Fred Flare and urban outfitters, so expect more of those posts. I probably won't post tomorrow because I need to catch up on all of your lovely bloggers blogs(was that redundant?). Bye guys, look for a project runway post soon, is anyone else kind of disappointed this year? I mean why is Blaine still there.

Bye
