John Galliano was released from an Arizona rehab facility yesterday, where the former Christian Dior designer has spent the past few weeks working on his recovery from alcohol and drug addiction. Arriving at LAX airport with a slew of photographers waiting was clearly a surprise to the famed designer. read more

Can you see what it says on the t-shirts?

What I wore today.

I’ve been getting more and more requests for outfit posts. And I’ve been meaning to, its just that I don’t feel I look “good” all the time to post all the time like some other bloggers do. I will wake up, put on some jeans and a t-shirt to drop my son off at school and go get coffee and spend the rest of the day just working, like that in some boring jeans and a tee.

Now, when I have on something else that’s a whole different story; I have to disrupt the hubby from his work schedule.  My methods of persuation gets tested each time. And it goes a bit like this

ME: ” sweety, can you take a pic of me please”

HUBBY – “well ( pause) je suis en plein travail la, je ne peut pas arrêter juste pour prendre ton photo”

ME:  ”pretty, please”

HUBBY: ” ok, but not with your shitty camera,bring mine” …

ME: “oh thanks sweety!”. *sigh. then *smile.

For the record, my camera happens to be a really good Nikon D3000 but he’s a pro and it just doesn’t match up to his Nikon D3S with a super huge (and expensive) lens. He’s so french!

Hey! Can you tell that I cut the waist off the pants – I kinda love that the rough edges were showing. I bought these maybe 2 years ago in the mens dept. at H&M.

I’m having so much fun with my 30 day clothing cleanse I twitted about here – I haven’t bought anything in 10 days! It’s forcing me to recycle my clothes more. It’s like the 80/20 rule (Pareto principle) but with your closet.  You guys should try it!

Haider Ackermann has been on the lips of many people since the rumors hit of the Dior split with Galliano. Will he, or won’t he is the question? Now that we’ve gotten our answers, I like many of you am ever so eager to see the first collection.

Here are some of my best looks from the Haider Ackermann Fall 2010 and Fall 2011 collections. Both of which shows a consistently in his theme of deconstructed yet tailored work. A look that can only be pulled off by a confident woman, one who knows her personal style is one part subtle and one part sharp.

The femininity of flowy fabrics and the masculinity of the structured blazers plays on this; you have to be a woman who knows that their is a sweet yet powerful side to her sensuality.  The Haider Ackermann woman is a BOSS.
