Donna Karan, DVF and Oscar speak

I have this website on my RSS feed, so of course I was waiting to hear the word that the fashion designers have spoken…and apparantly, DK, DVF and Oscar have spoken. I think that Mrs. O would look amazing in Donna Karan, but only the actual Donna Karan line, NOT DKNY. I’m not sure that Diane Von Furstenburg’s ready to wear would be very flattering on Michelle Obama, but I know for sure that Donna Karan would be AMAZING on her. And as a personal couturier, wouldn’t Korto from Project Runway create some simply fantastic pieces for Mrs. O?? I think it would be a match made in Style Heaven!!!

The Casual Blazer

So this season, one of the wardrobe essentials is an autumn blazer. Especially since we here in So Cal really don’t need a heavy coat during the day, and hoodies can get kind of overplayed if done too often. With a blazer, you can rock jeans & boots, leggings & booties, throw a mock turtle neck or even a plain tee and a scarf and your’re leaving the house looking fly as usual. I’ve bought a clearance blazer at Target for under $20 bucks, but it totally looks like a blazer from Target, on clearance, for under 20 bucks. I might have to jazz it up a bit with some tailoring, and maybe do some funky embroidering on the label or sleeve or something to make it look non-clearance-y.

I also found this Oscar De La Renta jacket on ebay – which is gorgeous and starting at a bid under 10 bucks. Size 6 for any of you small girls out there
