Hopefully I will have more time soon to write more. I’ve been meaning to update more often, but haven’t had much of a chance. So if all goes well, I can continue blogging about fashion soon.

Every Breath You Take

This is one of my favorite singers. He’s from the group Celtic Thunder. This is from their show Celtic Thunder Take Me Home. This song is sung by Ryan Kelly. I love his voice, and it is perfect for this song. When I saw this, I wanted to post it. I hope you like it.

Swimsuits While it’s Still the Season!

So, swimsuit season is almost over. There is only a month left. As a salute to the last month and, in the cases of a lot of places, the hottest month, I have created a little collage that contains beachwear. I haven’t gone to the beach in a while, but I do enjoy it, so I really thought it would be nice. I chose styles that are entire suits and not just mix and match. I like the mix and match variety, but the prices, I’m not too crazy about. Some of the swimsuits in this collage are $50, so those are a little more on the expensive side. I think all of these swimsuits are cute. I realize I must like polka dots more than I thought since a lot of them have polka dots. So I will leave you with this piece of advice, if you like the beach, find time to go.

Cool Rider

Cool Rider! This is one of my favorite songs from Grease 2. I included the entire scene because it is a great scene, and it was the only video that I could get to work, just being honest. I just love what Michelle Pfeiffer wears throughout the entire movie. I love Grease and Grease 2. They are both on my top 10 movies list. I just love the story lines. I love this song, and I think it’s pretty great. I also love other songs from the movie, but by far this song is my absolute favorite from this movie and tied with Hopelessly Devoted from the original movie as my favorites from the entire series.

Some Sweet Shoes $50 or less

maggiemu — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 20:37:05 +0000

Shoe Lovers rejoice! I have a find, all theses shoes are under $50 except the red Michael Antonio BELEN Gladiator Heel, which according to my sources is $50. I picked a lot of shoes, and I like all of them, but I love the monkey slippers. They’re just so cute. I am definitely a major Shoe Lover! I can’t live without cute shoes, but like I have mentioned in previous posts, I live on a budget. So I create collages that help people out. Yay, cheap, cute stuff is always fun. I just love to get a good deal when it comes to shoes, so this is probably one of my favorite posts so far. Another favorite post is my Platforms, Hot or Not. If you love shoes and haven’t read it, I personally recommend it. I think it’s fabulous, but I might be a little bias.

“What’s the Next Story”

I had the privilege of meeting Nerissa Pacio. She was the style editor of 7×7 magazine, and still is a contributing editor for the magazine. She went to UCLA and studied English. Here she joined the paper and got to interview people such as Nicholas Cage. After graduating she was a freelance writer, but the realized that she should go to Graduate School. Because of this realization, she went to Berkley. Eventually she came to work at 7×7 and was the style editor for two years. Now she is currently a contributing editor and is teaching fashion journalism. When asked why she is now teaching, she said that working at different publications and working with interns and younger people pushed her into teaching. She is a very inspiring woman and meeting her has increased my love of writing.

Fun, Flirty, Feminine Accessories Under $50

maggiemu — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 22:47:25 +0000

I love to create little collages with a few things that I personally think are adorable. I really like things that are fun and very girly. I really like to stay on a budget though. I think that it’s possible to stay cute and girly while staying in a reasonable price range, especially when it comes to accessories. I love accessories and think they are a great way to liven up a boring outfit and really pop out from the rest of the crowd. All of these accessories are really cute. They all are connected by being flowery or just really feminine and beautiful. I love all the colors and think that it is important to put accessories together in some way that isn’t helter-skelter.

Hey, People

maggiemu — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 19:52:28 +0000

Well I’ve gotten a few comments, and I just wanted to say that I would like to know what you think about my site. I also want to put an idea out there, if you like a post and want to see more things like it, tell me. Also, if you have an idea, post a comment and I may write something and post it. The only problem with doing that is that I might have to research it, so it could take a while to post. If anyone is interested, comment, and I’ll consider the idea, and your idea may end up here.

An Interview With A Reader

maggiemu — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 19:31:38 +0000

I interviewed someone who loves my site and loves what I pick. I know her personally and thought that it would be fun to interview her view on fashion. She is a great artist and a really good friend. She supports my love of fashion enough to agree to this little interview. She comments under the name Hailz and wishes to use that nickname of hers for the purpose of this interview.

MaggieMu: How would you describe your style?

Hailz: Mostly the classic artist, with frizzy hair and comfortable clothing.

MaggieMu: Do you think you are a reasonably trendy person, why?

Hailz: Not really, mostly because fashion and trendy is in the eye of the beholder.

MaggieMu: Do you think that fashion matters, why?

Hailz: Of course it matters, if there was no such thing as fashion then people wouldn’t have the cloths on their backs, lots of people would be out of the job and people can get inspiration out of these outfits or costumes. So for a world to not have fashion would be unacceptable in my eyes… I could go on, but I’ll stop now.

MaggieMu: What is one item you cannot live without?

Hailz: In a fashion sense I can’t live without my PJ pants! They’re just so comfortable!

MaggieMu: In your opinion, what is one item that every woman should have in her wardrobe?

Hailz: “Every woman needs to have a little black dress and a set of pearls.” And I totally agree.

MaggieMu: Why do you think that item matters?

Hailz: Because that particular look anyone could pull off, it’s trendy, classic and good for any formal occasion as well as casual occasions. It’s very plain so it’s good for all situations, it’s very versatile.

MaggieMu: Do you think your style is more functional or fashionable? Why?

Hailz: Defiantly more functional, my number one is comfort; if I’m not relaxed in what I’m wearing I’ll change it immediately.

MaggieMu: Is it weird that someone is asking you about your own personal style, why?

Hailz: Not really, I think everyone has their own style and express it in different ways, even if it’s similar to a general style. Your individuality still effects that general description of your style and thus makes it your own.

MaggieMu: Can you name a few designers that you like? If not, why?

Hailz: I really like Chanel and Gucci. Chanel has a very classic style and Gucci is more a walk on the wild side. I like both of those aspects.

MaggieMu: Where do you like to shop?

Hailz: Anywhere, basically window shopping will spark an interest leading me into a store.

MaggieMu: Well, thank you Hailz. And I’m really glad that you let me interview you.

Fun Fashion Under $50

maggiemu — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 20:50:45 +0000

I know not all of us have a ton of money. So I created a cute little collage full of fun little items all under $50. So now it is yay cute stuff, not boohoo big bill. I love getting really adorable stuff without the not so adorable price. I love all of these things that I found. I love shopping, but I do have a limited budget. I love fashion and I love makeup, so to find a ton of stuff in my price range makes me so happy. I think these products are really cute and I hope you will too.

Theses products are really fun and cool. I love all the colors. I like that there is a green eyeliner and a purple lipstick. All the skirts are fun colors. I’m a color freak so I like it when things are bright.
