{TrendWatch}: Leather and Ruffles

faithboutique: Sounds sexy, right? Leather and ruffles… combined? Perhaps that’s too good to be true, like a Molly Ringwald comeback. Or is it? (Feeling rhetorical at the moment). Definitely not too good to be true, and in fact- this trend completely blew up both the 2010 RTW and 2009 Fall lines. But I know what you’re thinking, “Hell no”, in which case I would say, “It’s nearly 2010, grandma,...

My New Year's Fashion Resolution

faithboutique: I have two particular New Year’s resolutions in mind: 1. Exercise every day. 2. Read at least one book per week. Overly ambitious, surely, and yet I’m inclined to attempt them both regardless. On top of these, I’ve compiled a list of New Year’s “fashion resolutions”. Every year I try to essentially “re-vamp” my style, inching a little further out of my niche by trying new looks-...

All That Glitters Should Be Gold

faithboutique: I recently wrote a blog for BlackBook that explored the social implications of being a “golddigger” -you know, the K-Fed/Anna Nicole Smith type. Usually, I would say golddigging is a thing of the past; a clichéd fad that is so last decade. In some senses it is a clichéd fad- the senses that make it “okay” for a twenty-five year old woman to date a dude on oxygen. But now I’m...

{WTW}: New Years Eve

faithboutique: Last year I spent New Year’s Eve with my dad and uncle- trying to play games such as Yahtzee and Balderdash despite having had too many glasses of Bailey’s on the rocks. But this wasn’t the only crappy NYE I’ve spent in sweats, and it actually seems to have been a recurring event. This year will be a different story. With a Faith Boutique fashion show to help run at the Cha Cha...

The Best of Both Worlds

faithboutique: I recently indulged in buying my first pair of “boyfriend” jeans. They’re perfect in every way: loose fitting, medium-wash, baggy butt(ed), ripped knees, low-riding. Let’s just say I’ve worn them for a week straight. But this phenomenon of looser-fitting jeans seems to be affecting more than just me. At a recent fashion shoot one model arrived in a pair not so different than my...
