Phone Fashion

When I say PHONE FASHION I am NOT in fact referring to the much-talked-about Lady GaGa video.  She wanted attention and wore ridiculous clothing and she's very inspirational and creative, but in the words of another girl (my age), Ke$ha, who is ripping up mainstream music:  "Blah, blah, blah!"
Her style can be embraced minimally, if one dares.
The video epitomizes the modern "GIRL POWER" which seems to mean that women are FULLY empowered to the level of men to the extent that they think it is okay to be provocative and promiscuous.
This can be dangerous, especially for young women.
Overt sexuality has only been hyperbolized in modern music to the extent that I do not think young women are getting a positive message in the media.
Is she the modern day Madonna?
So although I am not posting pictures from the Lady GaGa video that I'm sure you've all seen called "Telephone", instead I am going to display a variety of photographs I've selected from my recent phone memory,
Most of them were taken in February when I was in Calgary.  I went to the most amazing Holt Renfrew I have ever seen in my life.  Here are a few pictures of INSIDE the department store.  (I'm pretty sure they only have them in Canada!)

Inside the Holt Renfrew, I found one Herve Leger dress in my size.  I tried it on and fell in love.  It was only 900$ CAD, and with the 5% sales tax in Calgary compared to 13% in Ontario (where I'm from) it would have cost me less than $1000.  I would have had to max my credit card daily limit as well as my debit card limit but I'm seriously regretting not doing it now!!!  Here is a quick (blurry) pic I shot in the changeroom.

Let me tell you there is nothing like it!!!  The fit, the material, knock-offs don't do it justice.  Max Azria you are AMAZING!!!

Here are a few of my (slightly more modest) purchases lately:

Steve Madden purse

Boots from Zara bought halfprice (30$ CAD)

Denim dress with zippers

Gray dress with white lace overtop

Trust me when I say new camera is at the very top of my priority list!!!!
I hope you had a great St. Patrick's day, I have pictures to post which I probably should do now but I'll wait until tomorrow because I'm a little bit too hungover and this post has been a little too long!

Red Carpet Fashion - The Grammys

I love red carpet events mostly for the fashion.
I can't wait until I can start my career and maybe attend these events in person!
Here are a few of my favourite looks.
Heidi Klum in Emilio Pucci, my personal favourite

Lea Michele in Romona Reveza

Marissa Miller looking effortlessly flawless

Miley Cyrus in Herve Leger by Max Azria

Fergie in Emilio Pucci


Now it's time to move onto...
WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?????????!!

Britney Spears seems to have gone with a trashier, non-fashionable version of the outfit she wore while kissing Madonna. Taylor swift took the blue-is-in and so-are-sequens advice a little too far. Beyonce only gets half a failure because the dress is kind of cute, just does absolutely nothing for her frame. Katy Perry gets worst dressed, and Ke$ha really should stop brushing her teeth with Jack Daniels.








I'm not sure what to make of these next two, MOST UNIQUE AWARDS go to Lady GaGa (of course) and Rihanna. What do you think of these two ensembles?

Lady GaGa in Custom Armani Prive dress, and what I can only assume to be Alexander McQueen shoes

Rihanna in Elie Saab
