JEREMY SCOTT LIGHTNING BOLT SCARF AVAILABLE NOW AT OPENING CEREMONY!

The Jeremy Scott Fall/Winter 2011 Collection (separate from the adidas Originals collabs) has started to hit the market. Opening Ceremony is one of the first major on-line retailers to feature a portion of the collection – including this SICK’NING lightning bolt scarf. At first I thought,“pretty cool”… then I kept clicking around and I saw it on a person… *panties drop*. IT’S HUGE! Have you ever seen a scarf that big or that amazing? It’s like a lightning bolt blanket you’re allowed to wear in public! REJOICE!

Jeremy Scott Lightning Scarf, available here from Opening Ceremony.

DAILY SIN: JOYRICH REVERSIBLE LEOPARD JACKET

Today I made my first purchase from RevolveClothing. I always look at their site, mainly because they carry Joyrich, but they always seem to have similar inventory to Karmaloop. However… today is a special day because NOT ONLY did they have THIS little leopard print gem… they also had ONLY ONE LEFT IN MY SIZE!! *faints*

There is literally NO WAY I could let this glorious item pass me by. This jacket is so amazing if I hadn’t bought it, I know that one day I would be somewhere doing something… and I wouldn’t be able to focus because I’d be consumed with thoughts of how I really wished I’d had that leopard jacket right now. Screw the reversible black side (and things like “budgets” and “retirement”…psh), no one’s trying to have another black jacket here… this jacket is ALL ABOUT the leopard side – It’s like a tacky little slice of heaven.

(If you’re a first timer, use code: TULIP at checkout for a little discount.)

THE CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN HOLIDAY 2011 COLLECTION IS… WELL… TO DIE FOR.

It’s never too early to start making your Christmas list for Santa and I can tell you these Chrissy Lou’s are at the very top of mine. The Louis Strass shoe in purple velour and irridescent gems are exactly what I’m looking for fans of Christian Louboutin are looking for. They’re a little bit of Austin Powers meets The Little Mermaid. Priced at a mere $2,495 on the label’s website, why not grab two purr?

Check out the rest of the Holiday 2011 preview including black with gold *breathes in* GLITTER and a brown and leopard colorway on Highsnobiety.

JEREMY SCOTT CAMO: ALL I DO IS WIN.

As I said before, the bookmark bar is key. This morning, my eyes popped open around 8:30 and to my surprise all of the Jeremy Scott Camo line was on shop.adidas.com. I copped the Ruffled Track Jacket and it can’t get here fast enough.

The Wings Camo shoes are sold out in pretty much every size except a 7 and a 14; impossible to work with if you’re a size 10.5. I’m also obsessed with the Women’s track top – A) because it’s hot and a different cut than a typical track top, and B) …because I love matching.

THE QUEEN OF LOVE CHAIR IN YELLOW IS JUST WHAT MY MOTHER ORDERED.

Major shout-out to my mother for hooking me up with this AMAZING chair from Fab today. It’s a Linvin (not Lanvin, heh) Queen of Love chair. It comes in 12 different colors and the yellow is definitly my favorite… well… maybe the red is my favorite. I really like the blue too and the gray. These chairs are a modern, achromatic take on a baroque style and will drastically transform the look of any interior or exterior as they’re made from recyclable linear polyethylene which also means (my fav) they’re EASY TO CLEAN! I just hope it’s as comfortable as it looks.

VINTAGE CAZAL 865 SUNGLASSES: JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL

These MIGHT be from 2009 but…

…that’s long enough to have them make a comeback in my book. I’m really on some vintage eye-wear kick right now and I’m doing all I can to not BUY BUY BUY. You could literally wear these with everything and now that it’s winter… you NEED a new pair of shades, right? When it comes to Cazal there’s no point in buying a knockoff because it’s not about that. I’m here for the real thing or nothing at all.

THE FORMICHETTI POP UP SHOP!

I finally got to hit up Nicola’s Pop Up Shop today after lunch with my boo, Melody and it was pretty rad. I REALLLLYYYY wanted the gold Skull Panda ring but my wallet threatened my life after it saw the $225 price tag. So we compromised on the less expensive but equally as effective option: green. It looks like a little candy panda treat.

YESTERDAY MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE BEST DAY EVER.

Animal came to visit yesterday for my (early) birthday. We had some much needed mother/son bonding time… in our matching Melody Ehsani I’m Fly rings.

I’ll get right down to it… SHE BOUGHT ME THE JEREMY SCOTT WINGED BLACK LEATHER JACKET!!! AHHHHHHHHH! Right now, it’s on a hanger in my bedroom and when I look at it I get this feeling of overwhelming joy and it’s kind of difficult to breathe. It’s so soft and smells like delicious leather and it fits a brotha like a fucking glove.

And did I mention Ani herself ALSO got some wings? Cuz she did. And they’re ALSO amazing. I thought it’d be harder to talk her into them but literally… it was cake.

KARMALOOP: GREAT FOR YOUR SWAG BUT BAD FOR YOUR BANK ACCOUNT.

Graphic t-shirts will never go out of style and limited prints will forever be in high demand. I don’t know how they do it, but new gear pops up on Karmaloop.com almost hourly. You can look through, make your picks, then 20 minutes later refresh and there’s ten new t-shirts that you have to have. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, especially when it’s new Joyrich… it’s just bad if you ever plan to own an apartment or someday retire.

I just snatched these bad boys up along with some sunglasses that I needed like a hole to the head. This yellow Oversized Mop T by Mishka is kind of a have-to-have… and these other two Pinup/Doll t’s by Joyrich are necessary because who doesn’t love a shirt featuring red F-Me pumps or a New York Girl? Don’t you agree?

IT’S A BAD WEEK FOR THE BUDGET.

But it’s a good week for my feet! Adidas has been teasing me by releasing then not-releasing portions of the Fall 2011 Jeremy Scott O by O collection. However… I’m nuts and I managed to cop a few little goodies for myself. I’ll just retire a little later, it’ll be fine. I swear.
