Runway MY Way
Weekly Fierce Find
I am sure we all love deals. I know as a budgetnista I am constantly trying to find not only the best deal, but the most fashionable one. So if you all love deals like me this week definitely check out H & M and Oldnavy. H & M has all blazers and spring jackets on sale ($15 off actual price) and Oldnavy has new spring merchandise for less. Spring/Summer is around the corner and Memorial Weekend Getaways are coming up. These are definitely some good spots to start doing some damage on a budget.
American Eagle is a store I used to love for its simplicity with casual wear, but sadly I have not visited it in a long time. Which is why today's fierce find will feature AE.

Name: AE Embellished Shirt Tail Tank Color: Cocoa Powder / Medium Heather Grey Price: $19.95 Size: XXS-XXL
Since we are heading into warmer weather I thought this cute tank would be a great fierce find. With it being on sale its perfect to add with a blazer for classy work attire or a blazer for a night out. American Eagle has cute tanks that can be dressed up or down. I also love the color because you can create a soft or bold palette with it.

What Your Legs Wear?
Tights. Leggings. Tights. Leggings. Whatever it is I am down to rock at least once. Mind you this is coming from an ex-tomboy who despised tights and the nylon they were made out of, but things certainly do change.
Last week I bought some exceptionally cute leggings from Old navy, but they did not fit how I wanted them to so I had to exchange them for a different size. Sadly, I waited a week too long and the leggings were sold out. I am still going to try and hunt them down, but the world is full of fashionable cute hosiery and yourz truly has had her pick of them.
Why do I wear and like tights/leggings? Well I am a very versatile individual that loves color. Tights/leggings provides me with that and thensome. I am not sure about you all, but I wear them separately and together sometimes. I play with them. I love crazy prints and colors. I like wearing them to make an outfit stand out or to make an outfit blend in. To top it off tights and or leggings can tie an outfit together in the craziest way. You know how sometimes you get all dressed up and feel like your missing something? In this day and age, that something can definitely be the hosiery option. It truly transforms an outfit from day/night, edgy/chic etc.
Pretty much any clothing store you go into will sell some form of tights/leggings from high end retailers such as Barneys to low end such as Conway. Some of my favorite spots with very trendy tights/leggings are: Bloomingdales,Top Shop, Forever21, American Apparel and last, but not least Urban Outfitters which is where I got my fierce find of the week from.
Name: Rosevine Lace Fullfoot Tight Price: $14.00 Color: Black
I love these tights. I actually have something similar to them, but these are my next purchase. Very trendy yet casual. Pair these with a simple dress and pumps the tights will do the talking for you. Or you can add them into an already bold ensemble and they will work just fine. Wear your tights/leggings proudly. I definitely do :-)

My thoughts: Fashion Wk, VMA's & Fierce Find
Wassup Luv's,
So the past few days have been very exciting for New York City with fashion week and the VMA's. New York was representing to the fullest and yourz truly has a lot to say about it.
New York Fashion Week:
There have been some wonderful collections for Spring 2010. My favorites thus far: Cesar Galindo, Jason Wu, Christian Siriano, Vivienne Tam and Diane Von Furstenberg. I am looking forward to Zac Posen, Carolina Herrera, Carlos Miele, Michael Kors, 3.1 Phillip Lim and last, but not least Bryan Reyes (I adore him). This Fashion week I assisted wardrobe backstage for: Cesar Galindo, Jason Wu, Vivienne Tam and the upcoming Bryan Reyes show. Working backstage is such an experience in itself, a very valuable one. Fun, Fun, Fun. What shows have yall seen? and what's your favorite? Let me know your thoughts.
MTV's: Video Music Awards:
So wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww if you have yet to see the VMA's it is definitely a MUST SEE for many reasons. Follow me on twitter: www.twitter.com/yannid125 to get my personal opinions on various topics dealing with the VMA's. Right now I just wanted to focus on my MOST/LEAST favorite look from the VMA's red carpet.
Beyonce wore a fabulous red mini dress by Roberto Cavalli and looked stunning LEAST LIKED:
Lady GaGa wore a Jean Paul Gaultier Lace dress and a Keko Hainswheeler neck brace. All I can say is we have to respect Lady GaGa's hustle, but seriously what a statement she was trying to make here. She definitely gets a few points for being bold.
