More Sneaker Collaborations = YSL + Puma

It looks like all the fashion power houses are trying to break into the sneaker world these days!!! Just last week we discussed, post, Kanye West teaming up with Louis Vuitton for a new sneaker and now Yves Saint Laurent is teaming up with Puma to create a fashion forward sneaker as well. In black leather and in grey suede, the sneakers are available in YSL boutiques worldwide and only available online in the US.

Um....if you ask me all these sneakers are starting to look alike...I'm just saying. Let the battle of the designer sneakers begin!!!

When Wearing White

Fashion has a funny way of making a million and one rules......and one of those happens to be no white after Labor Day and before Easter. Some say you can definitely wear white after Labor Day while others would rather be caught in leopard pants and a zebra print shirt instead.......yes it's that serious!!! A rule that definitely couldn't be broken years ago, or you would be heavily condemned, is seriously being broken as of late!!!! I make my own rules and I don't see the harm in rocking white after Labor day as long as it's weather appropriate. But by no means would I want anyone to rock white shoes....definitely my fashion pet peeve!!! The great thing about white pieces is that they practically look fabulous with every color. So for those of you who refuse to wear white before Easter...break out your white goodies and let the white Fabulousness begin!!!

Ciara is a Fashion Fiend

So was Ciara reading my mind or was she reading Fashion Fiend......I'm just saying....I wish!! Anyway, she was spotted a couple of days ago at the Nylon Magazine anniversary party looking pretty fabulous in a look real similar to the one I created a few weeks ago!!! The base of the look was a 3.1 Phillip Lim layered ruffle-mix sweater skirt and a black leather jacket to top it off......and I LOVE IT!!!

Her style has definitely been on point lately....be on the look out for a post all about it...

Kanye West + Nike= Nike Air Yeezy

Wow...so not only is Kanye West teaming up with Louis Vuitton for his own sneaker collection but he has apparently teamed up with Nike as well. I'm so far from a sneaker head but for some reason this kind of excites me.....weird right? Kanye dropped his Zen Grey-LT Charcoal color Nike Air Yeezy in a store near you this past weekend for $215 and the real sneaker heads went crazy.....more like insane.... standing in lines for days!!!! They are only a fraction of the price of his LV sneakers debuting in June and a completely different style..... and might I add so FRESH, can't believe I just said that. Anyway, if you missed the first pair, because they are sold out, he's releasing the Black-Black version in May, and the final Net-Net color in June. Kanye is definitely known as Fashion Fiend who sets the pace for many....... and I am loving his creative spirit and his "it's my world" mind set!!!!

Trend Fiend: Denim Jackets

Remember back in the 80's and early 90's when you use to wear your denim jacket all the time with everything? I decorated mine with my name in glitter and rhinestones...yes I was a fashionista way back then!!! Well my dearest Fashion Fiends the denim jacket is trying to make a come back. Celebs like Kanye and Rihanna have been rocking them and I've been seeing them everywhere in the stores. I'm honestly not sure if I will be rocking this trend but it definitely could be a good look. When paired with a printed or bold color maxi dress, a white tube dress, or a white v-neck and black leggings.... this trend can definitely look casual but chic and fabulous. Opt for a fitted jacket as it looks best and is more feminine. Please...I repeat....Please do not wear the denim jacket with matching denim pants. Let's just leave somethings in the past!!!

Christian Siriano for Victoria Secret & Payless

My favorite Project Runway winner is about to take the fashion world by storm!!! The fabulous and oh so fierce Christian Siriano is teaming up with Victoria Secret Beauty and creating his own cosmetic line; and with Payless Shoe Source to create an affordable collection of accessories and foot wear...he is definitely about to feed it to all the fiends!!!

Inspired by shades from his fall clothing collection, his Victoria Secret Make up line will debut in August. The collection will include lip gloss shades, eyeliner, a bronzer-highlighter trio, and a face brush. All $32 and under!!! I'm far from a makeup guru but I will be the first to tell you a fresh face can definitely make or break you...I definitely think I'll be trying a gloss or two or four.

Also debuting around August is Christian's shoe and accessories collection for Payless. Now this should be interesting....Ranging from $25-$45, the Egyptian and hieroglyphics inspired collection will be all about embellished bags and towering heels, my fav. Hmmm......it's no secret but Payless has never really been on many Fashionistas must have list but I definitely can respect the idea, offering something fabulous at an affordable price. I will be waiting to see what this collection looks like. In the mean time.... You better get it Mr. Siriano...FIERCE!!!!

This Week In Fashion

Wow have I been M.I.A or what!?!?! Sorry fiends so much has been going on in my world but I'm back and I promise to never leave you for this long again......and oh how I've missed you!!! While I was away there has been so much going on in the fashion world and I'm so eager to share!! Rihanna has been around the globe and back looking fabulous, Michelle Obama is killing them fabulously and softly in Europe, retail stock has risen 4.3%, and Topshop has opened in NYC...yes my darlings a star is born!!

So let's talk about Topshop for a second... If you frequently visit Fashion Fiend then you are definitely aware that I almost always use Topshop pieces in my post. I've been anxiously awaiting the stores arrival since last fall, but my wait is now over. Once only available online to Americans, the fabulously fierce store, who's flagship store is in London, has opened a store in NYC.... right in SOHO and I'm on cloud nine!! Topshop is youthful, edgy and definitely on trend point. Owned by the Arcadia group, Topshop holds the worlds largest store in London and has stores in over 100 countries. They offer clothing and accessories for men and women and let me add the shoes are nothing short of fabulous. Their prices are a little higher than H&M, starting from $80 and up; but trust me when I tell you it's worth every penny. I'm kind of jealous about the store opening and all of Topshop's goodies being available to the masses, but I guess that's just the retail world. I haven't been to the store yet but I'll be going soon to break my non-existing bank!!! Of course if you cant make it to NYC anytime soon visit http://www.topshop.com/ for goodies and free shipping until April 9th.


In other Fashion News.....Our girl Rihanna is on a fashion tour. She's been parading around looking uber fabulous and fashion forward. Gotta love this chick's style game. She knows her style and definitely feeds it to the fiends on a daily basis. As I said before, I don't know if I'm feeling her hair but I'm definitely feeling how she compliments each outfit with the current "it" girl shoe...Christian Louboutins better known on Fashion Fiend as Loubs....

While Topshop thought they would bring a taste of London to the U.S., Michelle Obama decided to show Europe how fabulous we really are in the "A" a.k.a America. Our first lady has been fabulously showing up and out, while our President is handling our business. Her style is so sick and full of sophistication....she leaves me speechless everytime. I really don't think they knew what they were in for in Europe. The Obamas are in town and everything is looking up...even the economy...Gotta love it in every way!!!

This is what Fabulous looks like!!!
