Mindy's Wearing A Sequin Jacket 5 Waysby Mindy at February 8, 2010, 12:56 PMSometimes it's hard working retail. Everyday I feel the need to put together an amazing outfit: one that hits on at least one important trend, but is interpreted my own way. Usually, I enjoy rising to this daily challenge, but recently I've been feeling bored. I think it's 'cause I'm bored with my closet -- too much to choose from, yet nothing to wear... I didn't want to be negative or spend cash on additional clutter, so I came up with an idea to revitalize my inner fashionista and remind myself of what an amazing collection of pieces I've amassed. So...I decided to pick one item from my closet and wear it for the entire week. It's not a new concept, but I wanted to make it personal and see if it was something an actual person, i.e., not an editor, could do and enjoy. Here goes... Week 1: Sequin Jacket One thing you should know about me - I LOVE anything sparkly, so the sparkly, sequin, 'nightclub-in-the daytime' trend has been a dream come true! Here's how I wore my sequin jacket last week: Monday:
I missed the weekend (Translation: I was not ready to go back to work), so I kept my look casual and playful. I paired my jacket with a cropped sweater, satin shorts by Johnson, opaque tights, studded Gucci booties, and a chunky necklace. Tuesday:
Still didn't have much energy for anything super creative, so I went to my one of my fail-proofs - the all-black outfit. :-) The sequin jacket is worn with a Wyatt tie-dye boyfriend tunic, snakeskin leggings by Plan B, Dior tall boots, Kashmere leopard scarf, and long chain pendant necklace. Wednesday:
Finally, some inspiration! I went for an 'editor-inspired' look and paired the jacket with a silk coral top, high waist skirt, satin opaque tights, YSL black patent sandals, and Isharya black horn pendant necklace. Thursday:
Friday:
I have to say that I really enjoyed my first week of 1x5 and am looking forward to next week's piece: Harem pants! I'm also taking requests for each week's pieces so if you have any, please leave a comment here. More...

More... Project Runway Recap: Gotta Have Heartby The Copy Shop at February 5, 2010, 3:31 PM
Aww... Last night's show had so much heart! In partnership with the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women campaign and AdDRESS Your Heart with Campbell's Soup, the designers were challenged to create a look for the real women. Each woman had been affected by heart disease in some way, so there were a lot of tears from pretty much every designer -- but, strangely enough, not Janeane who has been our resident weeper...
In addition to the heart and tears, there was also a whole lotta tacky on the runway. Michael, Nina, Heidi and even guest judge and Marchesa co-founder Georgina Chapman took turns ripping Jesus' look to shreds! "You basically took a checklist of everything that can turn tacky and turned it into that garment," Michael told him. Not surprisingly Jesus got the boot, but of course he was surprised when Heidi gave him the double kiss. Really Jesus? Really? Haven't we been in the bottom 3 in in the last 3 episodes?
What was surprising to me was how shocked the designers were that 'regular' women aren't models and harder to fit -- go figure!! I love that Anthony celebrated his full figure model. Anyhoo, what I wasn't surprised about was Amy's challenge win. She totally deserved it.

Whitney Port + Elle Mag + Red Lips = Pre-Fashion Week Partyby Nana at February 4, 2010, 11:54 PMLet the pre-Fashion Week parties begin! Tonight, MTV's cameras trailed Whitney Port to Elle's shindig at the Guess? by Marciano store in SoHo. (Hope the cams didn't catch me waylaying the food servers to scarf down those yummy lobster-mango kebabs...) Eliza Dushku, Olivia Palermo, and Real Housewives of New York's Simon and Alex came out, as did the red lipstick, studded booties, fur, and funky tights.
Whitney + Elle Creative Director Joe Zee + a really big cocktail rock

Between Whitney, this beauty, and countless others, it was all about scarlet lips. Fun! Now I must floss the lobster out of my teeth & go to bed...
