Blushing on North Beach!

                                            More of my "Outfits that Make ME Blush"
   Yes! Another one of my fab! Fab! Segments of Outfits that make me BLUSH! I swear, everytime I wanna take pics of random ass people I swear I always get the best ones in North Beach. People here dress fairly well with "Their own Personal Style" and that is what I'm looking for. Not always on current trend, but somehow pulled together.
This outfit is an all black outfit. The statement piece, a blue infinity scarf! She has a bit of "Rock Chic" genre going on. Her cropped jacket and cropped boots compliment her mini skirt, so nothing is really out of proportion. And her hair! I dont think that was an accident ;)

INTERESTING... Well I could say more... I think I have my First BARF! The wide horizontal striped coat does nothing for her, just makes her look wide and shapeless. Her black bonnet with the feather... BLEH! I mean I don't mean to be MEAN... Well this Kitty is meant to claw! MeeeeoooW! I mean come on! she looks like a Fuckin tent with a birds nest resting on her head!.. NOT CUTE!

Well I think we all know the answer to why I took a pic of him... HOTT! In person he was such a hottie and yummy!!! Mmmmm!!! His eyes are closed in this pic so you can't really see his true hot, hot, hottness! But DAMN! Still looks good!... Oh yea the outfit! Whoops! well its well fitted and... OH YEA... HE'S HOTT!

She has a very "Chic Indie Look" To her. Long black coat paired with black riding boots... Always a CLASSIC! The thin long scarf adds more attitude and detail to her look. Followed by her aviator trim shades that add more mystery.

This last outfit is MY FAVORITE... so far. This outfit in my opinion defines Personal Style! the conac boots compliment her navy ruffle dress, Her stone blazer softens the intensity of her dress and gray tights/leggings. And to top it all off black sunglasses with a SUPER CUTE shoulder bag! MeeeeOW!
Her outfit "Makes ME Blush!

COCO FOR CHANEL

A couple nights ago my sister and I watched the movie "Coco Before the Chanel" for some reason, and I have no idea why I so did not wanna watch this movie?! I know right?!!?!?! CRAZY!!! As much as I love Chanel... Well worship Chanel the movie didn't really pull me in in the begining. Don't get me wrong, it was touching and sad because she was pretty much abandoned as a child, grew up an orphan then was a taxi performer in a saloon/restaurant. "Taxi Performer" is like a singer/dancer goes to table to table n performs for a fee. Sad and humiliating I know.
  But what really pulled me in watching the movie was Coco and her drive to survive. She was dirt poor, her only choice was to live with a rich man that made her entertain his ungrateful rude guests. Throughout her life she was teased for dressing too boyish, not in trend, not in the moment... And like every TRUE fashion designer she just brushed it off shoulder and stuck to her beliefs and her point of view of fashion. She didn't care that she didn't wear things just because every woman owned it. She mocked what was the latest trends and reinvented her own look!... After all, she did come up with THE INFAMOUS "LBD" aka "ZE LITTLE BLACK DRESS" Up to now it is still every womans wardrobe staple. I myself have more than just 1 "LBD" and there is nothing wrong with that! ;)
  Coco defined what it means to be "ELEGANT, CLASSY, TIMELESS... Like her fab fab tweed suits!, and of course every French womans trademark RED LIPS! Tre Tre SEXY!!!!  Till this day Coco Chanel is my favorite designer and has inspired me to be the fashionista I am today. Like the great Coco Chanel once said, "In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different." Everytime I hear someone making fun of my outfit, I always remember her quote "Making ME Blush" I LOVE U COCO!!

OUTFITS THAT MAKE ME BLUSH... even MORE

                         Yet again I'm doing another segment of
                                    "Outfits that Make me Blush"

This guy was way way shy... But he was kind enough to strike a pose for me! lol. I really like this guys style, very laid back yet put together... Something that most guys should try doing ;) his brown man bag balances out the black and white combo he's rockin and his white beanie makes his oufit look complete... JUST LOOK AT THE ENTHUSIASM ON HIS FACE!... lol!

I like, and I dislike her outfit. It's interesting and creative of course, but something about doesn't quite make me blush.. Nor does it make me wanna barf!.. But she is doing something on spot about fashion/personal style/ art thing. She's giving me and others a reaction to what she is wearing. Love the blue dress and accessories, the shade of blue compliments her skintone well. The shoes I'm not too fond of, but for some reason she can rock it!... And of course the Animal print cropped fur coat. The length of the coat makes her look wider than what she really is, if the coat were shorter, or much longer it would've flattered her more so than a somewhat midcropped length... Thing! A little off but I like the outfit, it has "PERSONALITY" and thats something that most people forget about wearing... "WHO THEY ARE... NOT WHAT'S IN THE CURRENT TREND."

If retro was something I wanted to find on the street... Then I found this chick! Love the red lips that match the red flower on her hair and ring on her hand. There is such a thing as too "matchy matchy" but she matches in a subtle way... And HELLO?! The saddle shoes and redlips?!! Very 1950's with a flapper girl twist ;) MEEEOOOW!!! This outfit is great for everyday, redlipstick always makes a woman look put together... Lipstick PERIOD!!!

Paying Attention to Details

  Not to long ago my manager sent me to another store to help out with the floorsets. Brand new store, with other coworkers from different stores so of course I had to look good!... Like better then usually, anyway! I arrived and started helping out the other managers setup the store, little did I know they sent a stylist from the Corporate office in New York... Before I talk about my experience I just wanna say that if I were a tall anorexic gay white guy, he would be my number 1 pick!
  I learned sooooooo much from him, details are critical... DUH! But he payed EXTRA attention to what works, and what doesn't work. As I was dressing a mannequin, he pointed out that there are different ways to tie a wrap dress, different ways that boyfriend jeans can be worn, and that the more life like and human you dress your mannequins, the more likely your yourself will get more ideas on how to dress not just your client but also yourself. Yet again another DUH! "Presentation is key!" 
  So what did I learn you ask??? ALWAYS PLAN AND PAY ATTENTION TO DETAILS!!! You may think that you got the right oufit the first couple hundred times! lol! But with great fashion sense also comes other great possibilities like. And always dress for your bodytype! Not the bodytype that goes with the clothes! It may look good on one person, but that doesn't mean its going to look good on you!

   Does this boyfriend blazer go well with these red high heeled maryjanes??? YES because your balancing out masculine and feminine, and NO depending on the length and the material of the blazer. With fashion and style you can't always be too perfect, you look too perfect it looks like you spend waaaaaay to much time on your look. You spend less time on your look get ready for the consequences!
  I think I've said this before, if so I'll say it again once more and to it "With personal style you have to care and not give a damn at the same time... But alway always PAY ATTENTION TO DETAILS!"
                                                     People will then pay attention to your details "Making YOU Blush"
