The Council of Fashion Designers of America has announced their Fashion Awards Nominees & Honorees for 2009. The CFDA is composed of over 300 of America’s premier accessory and fashion designers. This organization is dedicated to the continued growth and development of fashion as an art and culture. Nourishing newcomers to the field is another way the CFDA promotes the advancement of the fashion industry.

During the June 15 Awards gala, underwritten by Swarovski, First Lady Michelle Obama will be honored with the Board of Directors’ Special Tribute.  What an honor!

Some of the designers she has been known to wear have been nominated for awards as well. She definitely has an eye for wonderful designs.

Kate and Laura Mulleavy for Rodarte, Marc Jacobs and Narciso Rodriguez were nominated for Womenswear Designer of the year. Alexander Wang, Thakoon Panichgul and Jason Wu were nominated for the Swarovski Award for Womenswear. The winner of this award is blessed with receiving bountiful financial support from Swarovski. Very Cool!

Congratulations to all Nominees!

What an Honor!

What’s your favorite Trend?

As I’m sure you all know, the Oscars was this past Sunday and everyone is talking about who was the best dressed.  I think they all looked wonderful whether I liked the dress or not.  I enjoy looking at the dresses to see what great ideas the designers came up with each year, but I do think everyone makes too big a deal about it all.  There are designers out there that work VERY hard immediately after the Oscars (or any big celeb event) just to make the “knock off” dresses.  Those dresses are wonderfully done as well and not cheap by any means.  If you are lucky enough to get one of those….You Go Girl!

This is my pick for the best dress–

Do you have a pick for best dress?

Color is obviously a BIG part of putting an outfit together.  We have all heard the “rules” like pink and red clash and you should use one dominant color so the outfit is not too messy.

Well, what about the color of you skin and how that effects your clothes color?  If you have a light tone skin color, it is safe to say you should not use dominant light colors in your outfits like a gray dress for example.

Seems simple enough right?….

That’s not always the case….check this out-

This picture is on eonline right now on the Fashion Police section.  They say  her skin color is too light for the dress…..I disagree!  I think she looks GREAT!!  The “rules” don’t always apply.

What’s your take?

I am lovin’ the fresh weather we are having right now!

Check out this cool Bomber jacket…..

You could have a lot of fun adding this to your wardrobe. Add it to a pair of jeans and some chunky boots….how about adding it to some khaki slacks, a nice blouse and a scarf?

So many ways to play!’
