"Fancy Friday- The "Overall" Effect"

One thing  for certain about fashion and trends is that they definitely repeat themselves, and this can definitely be said about the latest overall trend. I LOVED wearing overalls and can remember saving my pennies when I was in high school and splurging on a Tommy Hilfiger pair...LOL. Currently I am a jumpsuit girl, but totally love the rebirth of overalls and how they can be styled. I have yet to find a pair that is flattering on me, but when I do, you will most certainly see them on an OOTD post. Below are some images I found that inspire me, or are identical to what I had in mind in regards to how I would style mine.

I love all these looks but my favorite is probably the oxblood leather overalls and statement necklace worn by Russian Vogue Magazine editor Miroslava Dama, and the double denim look with the over-sized cat eye glasses. What look do you like the best? Are you feeling the overall trend?

"Art"

Art is a word that is used to describe a diverse range of human activities and the products of those activities.With that being said I am constantly inspired from "art" not just in the form of fashion, but visual art, colors, and  environmental objects that God has created. The art that Melody Ehsani creates through her jewelry is awesome. I am so obsessed with my "Queen of the Jungle" earrings.

I'm a huge fan of graffiti and I am amazed at the talent these artists have. The ability to create such amazing pieces free style with no mistakes blows my mind.

I collect brooches and  think they are so classic. You can wear them with everything on any type of clothing (jackets, blouses, skirts, dresses) and even make them into necklaces.

Jeffery Campbell definitely creates awesome shoe art. I love all his shoes, but I don't wear these Lana platforms as much as I do my Lita's. They are so funky, but the platform is HUGE! This coupled with my size 10, makes me feel like Frankenstein so they just sit in my closet...LOL. I first broke them in here and here, but can count on one hand how many times I have wore these shoes.
