girl crush: byrdie bell

daughter of a ny times bestselling author and a former advertising executive, byrdie is the epitome of young, rich, and skinny socialites. in addition to having style that's always on point and an adorable name, she's also a talented actress and has a long line of ridiculously royal ancestors. this girl is just too damn cute.

paris fashion week: my picks (part one)

mrs. ricci hit the bullseye with her a/w '09-'10 collection. the scalloped look and warped shaping looked like sculptures rather than dresses! very vampy and very badass as a whole. did anyone else sense a little morticia addams in tanya's look?

rick owens never fails. this collection was my favorite thus far. the technicalities and details of it all was just impeccable. the white portion was kick ass to say the least, it definetley reminded me of a psych ward.. straight jacket? i was also really digging the satin finishes and asymmetrical shapes.

lace, lace, lace! lacroix's pieces all had elements of beautiful black lace in them. with fur collars, muted gold, and simple silhouettes, it had an overall russian feel to me. time to dig up the lace tights again...

this is just the beginning..

here i am in my bed with my beat down laptop on my pilow writting my very first post on my very first blog. i'm so excited to get this thing up and running!

as an introduction, i thought i'd give you an idea of what you can expect from this blog.
noitnah will feature discussion on a batch of topics related to fashion with an emphasis on inspiration, daily outfits, current events in the fashion world, and things of that sort. i'll also be sharing daily adventures, musings, and other things that i feel you all would like to hear about. (Rest assured that the majority of my posts will be about fashion). and, as i am a fashion enthusiast and an avid blog reader, i am well aware that a blog ought to be compelling to an audience. so look out for thought inducing posts :)

i'd also like to note that i'm not all business up front, as this first post might suggest. there will be plenty of light-hearted posts (party in the back) and little tidbits that i find will entertain you. this blog is as much about admiring fashion as it is about considering the dynamics of the current state of our country (aka i'm broke as a joke and i know not everyone can afford those drool-worthy lace up ann d. boots!).
i hope you like!

until later,
kahnita
