Abbey Lee in Versace x H&M

What do you guys think?  I personally think this dress is really pretty.  The jewel tone and the cut works.

Paris Fashion Week has finally arrived!

Well, Opening day was yesterday.  WHATEVER.  I am SO ridiculously excited to see all of these shows.  Most of my favorite design houses are premiering their collections in Paris, and I have high hopes for all of them.  London Fashion Week was sort of a let down, but I know that Paris will redeem the Spring/Summer 2012 collections.

Crazy for Wixson



I know I'm not alone when I say that Lindsey Wixson is an absolute babe.  What I would do to look like her....
Anyway.  I'm going to wipe the drool off my chin and come back to earth.  It's time to start posting on this blog again.  My roommate Emily and I are going to create our own personal/outfit post blog soon, and hopefully we can get somewhere with that.  So you'll be seeing more personal photos soon, I promise!

Frida's Always on My Mind

With my first official fashion related post, I had to dedicate it completely to my favorite model of all time, Frida Gustavsson.  I have an unhealthy obsession with the woman.  My tumblr is almost completely covered with pictures of her, backstage, off duty, and on the runway.  For those of you who don't know what her illustrious career entails, Frida has walked shows by Dior, Giambattista Valli, Valentino, Joseph Altuzarra, and Marc Jacobs, to state a few huge names in fashion.  The kicker?  She JUST turned 18 in June, having completed all of this before becoming a legal adult.  Here's to you, Frida.

As summer ends..

I'm finally getting around to creating a fashion blog.  I eventually want to include outfit posts, but I'll be busy up until the last couple weeks of August with back to school preparations and my sorority's Rush Week.  If you hadn't already guessed, I've dedicated this blog to (and named it after) Jeffrey Campbell, my favorite shoe designer.  So prepare yourself for photo heavy posts, a few *conceited* outfit photos, and attempts to use this blog as a jump start into the fashion world.  Bare with me, please.
