Fall Is FINALLY Here!!






        The season that has been so eagerly awaited for is here...FINALLY, and the weather feels fantastic. It is also great to hear that the temperature is going to continually drop. By Thursday and Friday the high temperature is said to be around 7o degrees and the low is said to be in the high forties or low fifties. What a perfect temperature! Enough about that, it is time to talk fall fashions. Say good-bye to the summer tops and shorts and hello to fall clothing. It is about time!

       Girls, get ready for cute coats and boots. The perfect look for fall is a fun sweater with boots tucked in a stylish pair of jeans, or a sweater dress with boots is cute as well. Deerfield-Windsor's homecoming football game is Friday night, and the temperature is bound to drop by the time it gets dark; it is about time for some fall football! Bring out the coats, turtlenecks, and comfortable, cozy sweaters. Since it is indeed the homecoming game, everyone is expected to look cute. Blow everyone out of the water with the hottest fall trends! To look extra spunky add fun tights to a dress to add an extra bit of flair.

         Understandably not everyone has they best fall fashion sense, but no fear help is here. Anthropologie, along with Urban Outfitters have great ideas for the perfect fall look.   Fall is here, so take advantage of the weather and look extra cute!

Super Star Turned Fashion Designer…Pathetic???

Fame these days has become totally overrated, if your famous and you write a book it’s amazing.  When an average Joe writes a book it may take ten years to get published and then overly scrutinized by critics abroad.  The world of high fashion is no different.  It’s almost second nature when a female becomes famous she immediately creates a fashion line to cash in on her fame.  Whether it’s Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s fashion in Wal-Mart, Avril Lavigne’s line at Kohl’s, or Katherine Heigle’s scrubs available on the Internet; it seems that almost all female celebrities choose this route. However, when frequenting these places it is easy to see that the apparel is tacky and the stars would not be caught dead wearing them. 

             Lauren Conrad, famous star from Laguna Beach and The Hills, is no exception.  Conrad seems to have hit the jackpot because her line is already in the high-end retail store, Bloomingdale’s. The question is, are Conrad’s clothes just a major hit because the young starlet is the designer?   Her clothing is nothing out of the ordinary; anyone could come up with these ideas.  Sure they’re cute, but definitely not anything spectacular. For instance, her designs are very simple, and very similar to the designers she wears. 

            The sad thing is that everyone will buy these clothes.  Why is this the case? The simple reality is that it is because celebrities design them.  Since many idolize the stars, they make millions from these average designs.  Is it because they are famous that the clothing lines are such a hit?  It sure does seem that way.

The Greatest Day of the Year!

So how well do you know the cast of Grey’s Anatomy?  Just the other day I took a poll on the cast of Grey’s Anatomy, I learned everything from which designer ad’s “McDreamy” appeared in (Versace) to Ellen Pompeo’s first childhood word (pepperoni if you are interested). All this talking about Grey’s Anatomy makes my excitement for the season premier even greater.  This Thursday on ABC at nine o’clock the first show of the season will air and I cannot wait. It is going to be a two-hour premier – it doesn’t get any better than that.  Lets just hope some of the drama from last season is left out.  Yes, I loved mostly

 everything about the last season I just felt that we could have done with out some of the fuss.  I love the Grey’s Anatomy story line. Even if I am disappointed with the episode, when the show comes to an end and Grey continues her monologue from the beginning by rapping up all of the chaos and tragedy that occurred in that episode I am pulled back into the addiction.   Thinking about the lives saved and the romance that occurs only makes me more and more ready for the Thursday.  Grey’s Anatomy is and always will be my favorite show, no matter how intense it seems to get.

What a Job!

Selena Bridges is a fashion nut; ever since she was a little girl fashion has been her life. Her love of fashion landed her a job at Saks Fifth Avenue, and she was not just the head shoe department; she immediately became marketing director. Which entails planning fashion shows, brunches to show off what the store has to offer, luncheons to preview the up and coming new look and the list of amazing events to plan goes on and on. It is safe to say Bridges had her hands full, but loved every moment of the chaos. However, Bridges had a very strict boss, she never knew what to expect from him, but she said it made her a stronger worker in the long run. When looking to obtain a job like this, a major in sales and marketing is a must. Bridges had a litte extra help getting the job, she knew the previous marketing director. When asked what her favorite part of the job was, she responded by saying, "Everyday there was no telling what would be in store for me, never was one day the same as the other." It is safe to say that her job was not the same old song and dance. Not to mention the great perks of having a job like this; major discounts! After interviewing Selena Bridges on her job as Marketing Director of Saks Fifth Avenue everyone should want to go out and get a job like this! Work can be fun, this is proof!

The Infamous 90210

As you all know 90210 is back and in full swing; with even more drama, hotter boys and amazing fashion. However last week the fashion wasn't so amazing; Annie the new girl on campus just moved to Beverly Hills from Kansas. Wow, what a transformation., so the fashion difference is pretty drastic. In result Annie's fashion sense is pretty lacking, but luckily there was a slight transformation from last weeks episode to this weeks. Last week Annie wore pretty generic outfits, justa tank and jeans, maybe a little mini skirt; but still nothing outstanding like Naomi. This week Annie's fisrt outfit is cute, a tank tucked into a high waisted skirt and a belt to finish it off. However, when it comes time for family night were back to the same ole same ole; a tank and jean mini skirt. Not to cute; but enough about bad fashioned Annie lets move on to Naomi. Namoi dresses quite well, she makes a compplete 360 degrees from scandelous to classy. One day she will have on a sweater and a conservative skirt, to a blue jean jumpsiut. Major transforamtion. Hopefully next week will have some fashion surprises in store.

The Hottest T.V. Show of this Season: Gossip Girl!

As you all know the seasons are beginning to change, not only in the weather department but the television world as well. Our favorite shows from last year are coming back on, and some new ones as well. Coming back this season we have Gossip Girl, The Hills, Greys Anatomy, and several others. The new shows coming on this season include, Privileged and 90210; these shows are the ones teenagers will be the most excited about. For many reasons, one being the juicy drama and of-course the amazing fashion! Which I will be filling you in on like crazy, and I cant wait. So far all of the shows that have been named have aired already, except for Privileged, which is coming on for the first time tomorrow night at 9 P.M. . But enough about the shows themselves, I'm here to talk about the fashion, whether it be fantastic or just totally crazy, and I mean crazy in a bad way. You will know everything and more about it! And I'm going to start off talking about my personal favorite, Gossip Girl!

In Gossip Girl, the wardrobe of Serena VanderWoodse
n and Blair Waldorf is absolutely incredible! You can't tell there in high school, there apparel is that of a wealthy New Yorker, which they are. Their clothing looks like it should be in magazines, and it probably is. Last weeks episode showed this elegant "white party," everyone is to wear head to toe white.
Serena wore an amazing floor length dress that
looked beautiful on her; Blair wore a white eyelet mini dress with a headband to add a little twist. Even when running to the little downtown of the Hamptons Blair and Serena look so fashionable. It's crazy! I would love to be able to dress like the kids on Gossip Girl, but thats kind of shooting for the stars. However, we can mimic the apparel easily. So take a look a
t these pictures and try your best to look like the girls on your favorite hit
series! xoxo
