Trix and Jo's Vintage Sale (Promo 2) from David Jaranilla on Vimeo.



After a little less than a month of planning the sale is finally over and it was a huge success! I can not thank all of you enough who came and supported Trixie and I, and to our little arts and crafts group who were so inventive when it came to set up and hang tags! This Vintage sale made me realize that anything is truly possible if you're motivated and willing to put in the hard work. It's amazing that we pulled this off with the little time we had, we literally just went for it! It was a little taste of what's to come for the future. It would be a pleasure to work with the amazing and jaw dropping talented Trixie in the fashion industry world. She continues to inspire me and its because of her I'm not scared to do what I love. I am so blessed to be surrounded by talented and creative people, joining forces to feed our brains and souls with these projects and events. If you want to do something "Just Do It" and who cares what anyone else will think! Do what YOU want!

"I think the best thing to do is just know that there’s a big difference between style and fashion, and that one doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with the other. I think people should stop and get off the train. I think they should look at things, and they should sit like a king on a throne and let everything pass by them. They should practice the art of discernment, and they should do that with their dollar, and they should do it with their eye, and they should do it with their ear, and do it with their mouth, and they should do it with every one of their senses. And they should really sit there, and they should make up their own fucking minds. They should do it about government, and they should do it about their art, and they should it about their clothes, and about their music, about their foods. You decide. If you dig it, dig it. If it’s fashionable to you, then love it and celebrate it." -Kelly Cutrone

Topshop AW 2010


Photobucket





The 214 Magazine of Topshop's AW 2010 collection is the ultimate fashion fix from fall fashion essentials and make-up to music soundtracks straight from the catwalk. Big sis brought a copy home for me from New York and I can't stop peeling through the pages, eyes glued to the editorials. If my budget allowed me I think I'd stock up on all the cute booties and knits for this fall season. I'm so inspired by the layering and outdoorsy yet girly outfits put together that I decided to collage it up on Polyvore. My favorite item is the PROUD Block Heel Side Detail Ankle Boots ( Ron Alan brought to my attention). These outfits would be perfect for strolling the city streets on my trip to San Francisco in November. Maybe I can search my closet for items similar just so I can achieve that Topshop look.

I'm taking a break from sewing buttons onto various blouses, cardigans, skirts and blazers for the sale. Who knew how much of a difference a button can make! These photos were taken a while ago. I purchased these oxfords on my trip to New York. They go with everything! They can dress down an outfit but I still consider them dressy. Does that even make sense?! Alls I know is that I absolutely love them and they were so worth the purchase!

Trixie and I have been planning and running around getting things ready for the sale and it's been a blast! Running around L.A. finding inspiration and showing me the Metro lines to take to school. Of course this was a couple of days ago when the sun gods were singing. The weather's finally cooling down and the rain gods are crying.
