Spotted by a Fashion Fiend
Hola Fiends.....per usual I was out and about in NYC doing my Fashion Fiend duty, looking for whats hott, and I spotted some goodies!!! I've already told you, post, I am seeing snakeskin galore, but I am now spotting a lot of pieces that are a peach-coral color and I'm in love!!! Screams Spring and can take you right into Summer...
I'm so in love with the shape of this skirt, so feminine
yet trendy and it has a jacket to match!
Maxi Dress anyone, sorry about the pic, but I heart the
idea of a long flowing pink dress....
Peplum dresses are definitely all the rage!!! Light but
still makes a statement!!
Bold colors but still so feminine!! I have a few more pieces I'm in love with...but I have to save something for myself!!!!
These pieces can be found in your nearest H&M.

On April 30th the tennis star will debut her clothing and accessories collection on HSN, called Signature Statement . Ranging from $30 to $100, the collection will include jewelry, handbags, and knitwear. Serena says "One of my dreams has always been to share gorgeous gifts of fashion and luxury with the world".

Fashion Fiend Looks For Less
One of Fashion Fiend's readers recently voiced a fashion concern. She asked "why are the looks created on Fashion Fiend filled with so many expensive pieces". I explained to her the looks are created to give Fashion Fiends some ideas on how to rock the cutest and latest must haves. Honestly, I can't afford half the items in my looks, but I definitely go and find my same looks for less!! Let me show you how....
In Black & White
Knotted Serpentine Necklace $8
A $1000 or more look for about $250!!!
So obviously you will not find the same exact pieces for less, that would be to good to be true, but you can definitely find similar pieces that will give you the same fabulous look or close to it!!

Trend Fiend: Harem Pants
I remember first seeing the harem pants summer of 2007...I had a few pair.....but it seems like the fashion world is really starting to embrace them.....and it's about time!!! Every reputable fashion source is claiming them as the must have trend for the spring...and thus the masses are in a frenzy. Some might say they are a bit too trendy, but I'm a fan of the look because it's so fabulously edgy!!! The harem pants looks like perfection when worn with towering heels and a simple top. I definitely recommend NOT rocking them with a ruffle top or any other top that's to busy...to much is not always good. Let the pants do all the talking and simply accessorize like I know you know how!!!
MaraHoffmanSilkCroppedPants $242
Elizabeth and James Harem Pants $265

Fashion Market Watch: American Apparel 4th Quarter Sales Are Up
The media and our pockets won't let us forget that we are in one of the worst financial crisis of our lifetime. Despite numerous businesses cutting back on employment, and closing stores, there are a mere few that are still booming. Last month we discussed how Gucci is surviving in this economy, post, and it appears American Apparel is in the same league. American Apparel, Inc. has reported a fourth quarter net sales of $145.6 million, a 31% increase for the quarter alone compared to 2007. Their net sales for the year of 2008 were $545.1 million, a 40.8% increase from 2007. It's the survival of the fittest and American Apparel seems to be on top!!!
In these hard times we all are being more responsible when we shop, we want affordable quality, and it appears consumers are turning to American Apparel to find just that. It all makes perfect fashion sense. Amercan Apparel offers affordable quality clothing, and I personally know each piece can be worn more ways then one. It's all about reinventing what you already have!!! Most of their pieces are basics, but a blank canvas is all a Fashionista needs, and it doesn't hurt to also have an array of colors to choose from. You can expect to see an estimated 25 to 30 more American Apparel stores popping up around the country this year and possibly in a city near you.
See Some American Apparel Goodies Below...
Pinpoint Oxford Shirt Dress $69
Cotton Spandex Jersey Bandeau Bodysuit $33
Can be worn over 16 ways...as a top, please do
not wear alone
The "Infamous" Cotton Spandex Jersey Bandeau
Dress $41 Can also be worn over 16 ways
Regatta Sunglass $50

Casual But Chic
Some of Fashion Fiend's favorite girls were seen out and about looking laid back and casual but of course........chic. I'm the girl that's all for getting dressed up and glamorous, but who doesn't love throwing on a pair of jeans to look just as fabulous. I talked about how far a great pair of jeans can take you in this post . It's always important to have a balance!!! Mix your jeans with some cute heels or flats, a white tee, and jewelry... remember the key to a fabulous casual look is your accessories. Beyonce, Rihanna, and Kerry Washington, were spotted in jeans looking uber cute.....Gotta Love these girls...
Our Girl B looks cute ang laid back shopping
in NYC. Not sure I'm feeling the Roca Wear chain belt,
but hey to each it's own!!
Ms. Washington was extra laid back in LA.
She is so naturally fabulous she can pull
anything off!!!
Rih Rih is back...and looking uber laid back and fabulous!!
I need that jacket in my life ASAP!!! I'm not feeling her hair
but this is what casual but chic is all about!!!

Celebrating 1000 Hits!!!
Fashion Fiend was born less than a month ago and she has already received over 1000 hits!!! How Fabulous is that!?!! I'm honored and privileged that so many of you have come to Fashion Fiend to explore the Fashionista in us all. I have discovered so much about myself through this blog and as it grows so do I. Following our passion in life is one of the most important gifts we can give ourselves. You only have one life to live so why not make it fabulous and live doing what you love. Thank you for your support and allowing me to share my thoughts with you. As long as I can dream, think, and breathe I'll be a Fashion Fiend.
Here is a little quote I wrote two years ago....
The choices we choose to make in our lives and our careers help develop who we are and what we will become. Choosing to follow your passion will be one of the most critical decisions you will have to make. What you choose may change your life forever. What you choose may also be risky. Never be afraid to take the shot…When you follow your passion you can never miss!
Until next time.........
Double Smooches,
Chloe Elle

Love It or Leave It: Louis Vuitton's New Look
Louis Vuitton's new look is yours.....literally. The fashion power house's lastest idea is to add the customer's initials to its popular handbag. You can now personalize the infamous Speedy 30 or the Keepall Bandoulière 55 bags. Um........I guess everyone is trying to be innovative during this recession.....gotta appreciate the effort. They are even giving the bag a special coating to keep your initials intact during the everyday wear and tear.
Hats off to LV for being creative, but I think I'm going to LEAVE this look right were I found it. What about you....Love It or Leave It!?!

Trend Fiend: Snakeskin
I was all over NYC today...uptown, midtown, east and west.... busy day.... and I definitely spotted a trend!!! I hit up a few of my favorite stores and what do you know...Snakeskin is everywhere...and boy do I love it!!!! I came across snakeskin booties, sandals, skirts, dresses, belts, and bags. I'll admit the dresses were edgy...but live on the wild side and dare to be different!! The snakeskin pattern is like a blank canvas because of it's neutral subdued colors. Most like to wear the pattern with black or brown, but I'm all about the colors baby!!! Snakeskin shoes and bags look fabulous with bright colors like yellow, blue, red, or purple...close your eyes and envision it...........I told you it was fabulous!!! You can also always throw on a bold color belt with your snakeskin print dress....trust me it's glamorous. I'm loving everything about this print and I'm definitely glad the fashion world is embracing it's fabulousness. She my snakeskin look below.....
