Mr. Big Bradshaw


Tulle be or not Tulle be… now there’s the obligatory question.

At the crossroads of Radically Chic Street and Shopaholics Anonymous, I’m bordering a quasi-suburbanite logic that if I can’t gallivant merrily about New York… why don’t I just bring a little Sex and the City to a vicinity near me?

Feeling somewhat zingy-zangy over the looming Halloween trickery, a fashion epiphany struck like a subtle carnage knocking at my door. Inevitably, this was followed by a swarm of butterflies in the pit my stomach that most experience while falling in-love. A mere 25 dollars and 12 grueling hours later, my Carrie Bradshaw/Neo-prima Ballerocker skirt was conceived, and I have my sewing genius mother to thank… because frankly, I can’t whip a stitch.


The Blahnik of skirts everywhere, the couture in a sea of converse, the gossamer kingpin… it is now the First Lady of my wardrobe.

Lucky is teaming up with TheSupermelon.com and holding a smaller/separate contest for their "Style Your Jeans"... so if you're interested in winning uber-cool prizes while touting your give-all fashion, then click the link below and follow the contest instructions. It's simple. Take the "My Denim Transformation" Challenge and show'em what ya got!

Pfffffffff And such a scorching declination of "immaculate néo-romanticism" !!! I am sure (and the -"oddly GLAMOURissime" -forecast ) is easy !!!) that many persons would like to be the "Sex And The City-esque Mr Big" with a statuesque ballerina as You !!!!!

A Bientôt, Antoine

Link trade perhaps? Your blog is too fantastic.
FASHION CHALET said…
I would email you more in depth about what you commented in my blog, but I don't see it in your page? Anyway, don't sweat it, we all get it. You can't escape it, unfortunately. As my Mom says, "there's one everywhere..." if you know what I mean.

Anyhow, I look forward to your comments, when I get an email saying "Bella" has left a comment for you in your blog, I feel all cheery like. Your drunk in the boots comment made me laugh out loud. I slip them on and off, like they were made for me. Everyday I want to wear them. Many more outfits to come with those babies. ;)

Keep on inspiring!

In Her Final Hours

Goodbye my baby girl.  Through and through, no ifs, ands, or buts I'm what you'd call a "Pet Person". My little ones are like my children...sometimes this even includes the neighbor's pets.  Yesterday I lost my beloved kitty and there is intense pain that accompanies this loss. In her final hours, she appeared frail, unable to walk...diluted and unlike the feisty feline that I'd spent the last 13 years nurturing. A significant and constant part of my life, even in her passing, she fought to stay with me.  There's a glimpse of comfort in knowing we have deeply loved and cared for her to the very best of our abilities. I'm grateful for all her bossy silent meows and a million scratchy tongue kisses. I'm even grateful for the days when I'm sure she thought I was her maid. Holding her in my arms one last time, trying to accept her looming death felt like a nightmare but watching her suffer as End Stage Renal Failure submer

Aurora

▲Bella Harris Artwork▲ Aurora- 20 x 24 oil on pine panel As some of you may know, I began drawing last year when I spotted a Jeffrey Campbell + Akira contest and played on the notion that maybe I could design a shoe and develop an innovative voice in the universe.   So that's exactly what I did, and it really initiated a profound realization for my artistic expression.   I've only been painting for the last three months, and your feedback is truly compelling and appreciated. I love it! With that said, here's a little preview of one of the paintings I've been working on... can't wait to share the rest of her. Behind the name. Aurora:  a phenomenon occurring in the night sky around the polar regions, caused by atmospheric gases interacting with solar particles to create streamers, folds, or arches of colored light.
