Weekly Likes/Dislikes in Fashion


Like of the Week: Rent the Runway

First off, I want to thank lovely reader, Chelsea for this weeks 'Like of the Week'! She sent me the link to the fabulously awesome site: http://www.renttherunway.com/


Now how amazing is this?!?! You can literally shop online and browse through dozens of well-known designers for that perfect dress from Herve Leger to Badgley Mischka to Nicole Miller. Simply choose your dress and when you would like for it to be delivered and RTR will send you your order in two sizes to ensure the perfect fit! When you're done you can slip it into the pre-paid package and send it right back. How simple is that?!

Basically, this company came into fruition as the brainchild of co-founders Jennifer Hyman and Jennifer Carter Fleiss when Hyman's sister couldn't figure out what to wear to a wedding. She wanted to wear something that was elegant and stylish and it was this conundrum that would frame the idea of 'Rent the Runway' for these two aspiring Business majors. The rest is history! Now women everywhere can benefit and wear designer clothing for a fraction of the price!

Check it out! Thanks Chelsea :D



Dislike of the Week: Girls who don't know how to dress for their body... 

I warn you, this isn't pretty...

When you look in the mirror, inwardly you must have some idea of how people might percieve you. If you don't then I'm sorry society has failed you. I just find it somewhat tragic when ladies can't figure out the proper way to dress for their body type. I captured this look last Saturday night when I was at Angels & Kings with some friends. I don't have specific words for this. I will say that it's winter here and freezing out.


Unsurprisingly, this poor girl looked uncomfortable the whole entire night we saw her and was consistently pulling down and shifting her sweaterdress.

All in all, not a cute look. In fact, kind of awkward for the entire bar.

There's a way to give a little sexy without giving it all away. Clearly this was never expressed to this lovely girl. Let's just say, if you're going to dare to wear this either be super confident or super toned.

  1. I once saw a girl who wore the perfect pair of pants for her ass. I thought she had the best ass of all time but then when they came off, I felt as if I had been deceived. Does that count? I mean, she bought the perfect pair but it was a decoy.
