Most Offical Bish

Check out my latest set created on polyvore. It was inspired by Cassie's rock-star inspired look & features one of my favorite boot styles by Balmain. I like to call this look "Most Official Bish" ...this look is just right for the extra confident, tomboyish but still sexy kind of girl = )

Bebe Does Balmain

Every season I make a style shopping-list. The list usually consists of clothing and shoes that I want or plan to buy. Being that it's more like a wish-list I sometimes include things that in reality I may not get around to buying. = (

So for Fall09 #3 on my list is: own something Balmain. Currently, I am a college student with no financial aid for tuition = ( and I only have a part-time retail job...sooo I highly doubt I will cross #3 off sometime this year. LoL.

But hey it's wishful thinking! Besides can you imagine NOT feeling like an ultimate stylista in a fab creation by Balmain something like this one from the Fall 2008 collection...

Maybe Balmain dresses are so exspensive because each piece is sprinkled with magic sexy dust. = )

And the celebs love Balmain just like me too!

I hope that my readers are not tired of my knockoff/ designer look-alike posts. I realized that lately I have been making a lot of knockoff posts and also have been writing a lot about Balmain..but I will not stop because every woman deserves a little Balmain in her life whether it's an authnetic Balmain piece or a Balaminesque piece.

I know that my store Zara has ripped-offed every great design from Balmain for their F/W collection. The studded shoes, military/band jackets, tie-dyed jeans...the list goes on. But after visiting Bebe I see they are also gulity as charged when it comes to committing the copycat crime. However, I do not care let them copy all they want because that's what FastFashion stores are for & I love to shop at both Zara & Bebe!!!

Got a serious case of Balmania? Bebe may be able to cure you...

I will envy anyone who gets their hands in these! Omg it seems like for the S/S + F/W season Balmain is one of the fashion labels that continues to stay on my mind & now seeing these Red boots gives me a serious case of Balmania! = )

Pretty in Purple Pt.3

If you don't already know I have a fashion fetish for purple dresses + I worship Balmain & as a result I hope that tomorrow I awake and this dress is hanging on the back of my door in a diamond encrusted garment bag = )

Balmain Fiend

Okay so after seeing so many great collections I am convinced that I am a fanatic for Balmain! This man designs some fabulous dresses and let's not forget the great jackets. I wouldn't say that the collections have anything too outlandish or uniquely edgy but I really enjoy the direction that the line goes in. Balmain is definitely for girls like me who are into the whole effortlessly chic,glam rock look. = )

Balmain Spring 09

Balmain is one of my favorite collecions. Rockerchic is really cool.

It's so crazy because my job has these Balmain look-alikes and women are dying to have their hands on them. Since these pretty damn good knockoffs came in the store two weeks ago I think I get about at least 5 customers a day asking for them. Let alone the nonstop phone calls to place the shoes on hold. I understand all the hype being that at Balmain they are in the thousand price point and at Zara they are $169.00...besides they both look like the same cheesy rhinestones were used!lmfao.
