Fashion Friday: Just a Romp(er) in the park....we heart Rompers/Jumpsuits...the grown-up kind

We've said it before (a few times) and we will say it again...We Heart Jumpsuits! (no it is not Spring 2009 when we did this amazing post...I think it was our 3rd post ever!)

Jumpsuits are for sure back in a huuuuge way and hopefully for us they are here to stay!

Stolen from Polyvore.com...thanks!

Last year only the brave put them down their runways...this year the shy took a brave pill because they romped down 70% of the runways from Stella McCartney and Tibi to Karl Lagerfeld and Lanvin (they also had our fav last spring).

Lanvin Sp/SU 2009

Yes, it does take a daring person to try one on (I mean come on...you are totally nekkid until you slip it up...) but once you do...you will scream out (in a good way) I heart Things We Heart!!!

They are super versitile and easy to wear...just take your time picking out the best for your body.

Here are a few of our faves for Spring 2010...

Oh! P.S. We found the ones we can all afford...as you know we are recessionistas-ish so we wont torture you by only putting in ones Super Models wear...

You're Welcome

Stolen from Hipcandy.com...thanks!

We looove Jumpsuits (rompers, playsuits what have you) in the day time...unexpected but totally cute and easy!

OK so Karl Lagerfeld give it to us with this sick ass pink leather romper...

Since we are drooling and can not have it for daytime hotness....we found some you can have!

Hi there heart playsuit from Topshop....What's that you say? You belong in our closets?

Yup...you do...that is why we are going to have you!

This belongs with some cute Oxfords or bright ass sandals...

Easy breesy should be the name of this super cute romper from Free People...

Slip it on...throw on some slouchy boots or combats and honey...you are gonna be the one we stare at and and to kill (in the most loving way of course)

Geez louise Cynthia Vincent! You had us at 80's-esque printed cropped leg pink jumpsuit!

And you got it right!

Looove it! This may be a wee bit tricky to figure out how to rock but once you do...you are golden!

Coachella here we come!!!!!!

Dolce Vita's uber cute jumper is perfection for ANY daytime (and some nighttime) event...whether its just shopping or pairing with some knee high riding boots at a music fest or simply some flip flops (not the wedge kind) it is perfect!

There is nothing like wearing a JS to an event, dinner or party...sooo chic...so classy...soooo good!

We are freaking over this f'n ridiculously insane one from Erin Featherson!!!!!

Ugghhhggghh...But have no fear...here are our nighttime faves from designers we can actually wear!

"Oh this old thing? Hahaha I have had for years"..."Why thank you! Yes it is effortlessly chic and unbelievably sexy..."Oh..I don't know who made it...L.A.M.B. maybe?"

Yes mo' fos it is from the gorgeous Gwen Stefani's line. Someone may have this one coming to add to her line up and she is EXCITED!!!!!

How cuuute is this sweetheart necked, tuxedo-ish short jumpsuit from the "King" of jumpsuits Greyantics by Grey Ant...

LOVE! Pair with some sheer tights (or none at all) throw your hair in a A.Wang/ Miss Me-esque braid and you are GTG!

Going to a black tie affair or shmancy party but want ...no no...need to stand out? Grab this rad one from Wink.

Sex in the form of a classy jumpsuit! Done and deliciously Done!

Pssst...it's on sale! Throw on some gorgeous stilettos or sky high black booties and you will make Carrie Bradshaw fall at your feet.

Thank you to Twenty8Twelve for giving us this beautiful JS.

This screams beautiful summer wedding or elegant party in some amazing beach town.

Tan your gams and you are ready!

P.S. Stay away from those annoying stretch jersey ones usually found on Melrose Ave or W. Broadway from the cheapy stores (not that you have to spend a ton to look good)

But this post is about the ones done right...not the ones done wrong...

P.P.S. You will kiss us again and again after you embrace jumpsuits!

Fashion Friday: We heart big 'ol chunky statement necklaces!!!!

It happened again... You were late running errands and you come home to your honey saying, 

Woops I forgot to tell you, we are having drinks tonight with Skippy and Skipper Mc Skip..... We have to leave in 15 minutes! 

OK.... Time to hustle. 

Skinny jeans? Check

Loosey Goosey Sexy tank? Check 

Little boy fitted blazer? Check

Fantastic boots? Check

Hair thrown up in a messy ballerina bun or loose side braid? Check

Now lets make this outfit "Night out" worthy... 

Big chunky crazy F*'d up necklace? CHECK CHECK CHECK!! 

You don't have to be Cleopatra to get the super statement necklace look down. 

In fact... If you learn to embrace this style, it can be your new best friend! 

Because these necklaces that we are in super heartsville with right now MAKE your outfit. 

They can take you from Coco classy.... 

 

To street savvy, all in just a short trip to your jewelry box.  

A statement necklace is a huge time saver, given that you can really throw them on at the end of your long day and viola, you are ready to go from work to dinner. 

But don't underestimate the collar necklace... Remember this brilliant moment? 

That turquoise necklace took that white dress to another level. 

How fantastic would this look be for a bride? Your welcome newly engaged readers! 

Here are a few of our fave picks for our (and your) jewelry collections.  

Throw on this braided blue rope and chain necklace from Top Shop with a white A. Wang tank top and some skinny jeans, add a cardi and you are super cute and ready to go! 

We love the mixture of rope, chain and fabric flowers on this beauty from Anthropologie. 

Beautiful but kinda fu*ked up.... 

Yep, this calls for a fitted black body con dress like this one, by Theory

A loose boyfriend cardi and a pair of tough boots! 

You will be throwing off a very Winona Ryder a'la Heather's vibe and really how is that not fantastic? 

For all you Coco lovers (Miss t.w.h) and anyone who just feels like rocking some bad-ass pearls... Well, here you go. 

Jill Golden's necklace is made for you! 

Big, Chunky and totally right now, these are not your Granny's pearls. 

But we would wear them like they were. Styled with a classic black cocktail dress and some sky high black pumps. If only smoking didn't give you cancer and we could have a cigarette holder to complete the look... Oh well, we will have to settle for wavy hair and red lips. 

We really love the rough cut stone Gemma Redux necklace. 

Something about the little traces of green are calling our names... And it kinda reminds us of something out of that movie the Dark Crystal... Total Kira the Gelfling style. 

We are really into this heavy black beaded necklace from Karen Walker. 

Pair this with a White sweater

a black mini skirt, black tights and a pair of beautiful L.A.M.B booties.... 

Your pretty much ready for what ever this winter has to throw at your! 

Lastly but not leastly (not a real word.) is this beautiful waterfall of shimmering gold mini discs... 

Really a statement maker. This piece by Lee Angel has 18 strands and is not for the faint of heart. 

We think it best to pair this with something really simple, like this black strapless Kova & T dress. 

These necklaces will make you wardrobe basics so much more exciting! 

Lets hope this holiday season all that gets chunky is your jewlery... Put down the spoon and step away from the stuffing!!! 

“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”

Bueno: Fashion Week!

 FASHION WEEK!

Uber Bueno!!!

2 times a year, New York City (and the rest of the fashion obsessed world) stands still and makes way for glamazons and lithy models to stomp through the tents and streets, draped in gorgeous, yummy, fun, eclectic, artistic and crave worthy clothing.

We have been lucky enough to attend a few shows in the past and it is magical!  We are still jealous of ourselves!

The shows have just begun, some in tents and some...the very cool and hip alike, do theirs in warehouses and art galleries...but all of them are no less than spectacular.

Here are a few of our favs so far!  It's only been 36 hours since it began but if things are already this good..imagine how great they will get!

The gorgeous over achiever and Queen of Style herself, Gwen Stefani opened Fashion Week with a chic presentation style show for her line L.A.M.B.  

It was a hit!  Here are 2 of our favs from the many amazing pieces she showed...

Um hi there perfect spring jumpsuit...please jump your way into our closets...

Beautiful!

P.S. Love the make up Miss S ;) ....(see rule 1!)

Go here to see more L.A.M.B. Spring 2010.


Oh Vena Cava!  If only we could get our polished lil hands on your TDF clothing!!!!

Love. Enough Said!

Yummy sweet yummy love the hardness of a safety pin bodice on a sweet neckine!

BCBG....can we talk?  Are you the only major department store and retail chain label out there who is accessible to consumers that can still throw a show this F'ing good?  UGH  your dresses are fantastical!

Hi...this was for sure made for us right Mr Azria?  It sure looks like it!

Wow! One shoulder sheer sided mini dress?!?!  Yes and Please! (well after a diet I suppose)



We can't wait to report more...hurry up A.L.C., Erin Wasson x RVCA and Marc Jacobs!!!!!  We are dying to see pics and dream!!!!!


But until then....

Need and just have to have more...Fashion Week Daily is the best of the best fashion week coverage around.  Your day and night can not begin until you read this...just getting one make you feel alive.

Go here to buy tix (that is if you are lucky enough to live or be in the Big Apple)

WWD has amazing coverage for those of us not in NYC...sniffle...tear

Wanna torture yourself?  Get behind the scenes with the models of the runway...uuggghhhh!  I can't stop looking...maybe I am a masochist too!

It's a look at the life of a show...through their blogs, tweets, photos and favs.  Just don't forget...they are aliens...no just kidding...they are just like us...only super tall!

So have fun and get inspired!  Send us some of your favs...
