The grace of the season

2010-12-27T07:27:00.000-08:00

the Grace of the season is wonderful!

Except for all the food! Leaving food littered on your plate is just bad taste! It makes it look like you dislike the food the host has given you. Here is a little tip my lovelies:

take a little bit the first time, then go back and get more! That way if you don't like something you don't have to eat more of it.

the exception being when someone serves you....which is not something they should be doing anyways! How awkward would that be....here have a mountain of aspic! What if the guest hates aspic and is to shy to say anything? YUCK!

if anything the food should be pre - plated and brought out so that it looks classy and there is only a little bit of everything on the plate!

A new take on life

2010-12-20T21:46:00.000-08:00

Dear goodness how long has it been darlings?

the answer: too long!

I have decided to switch the blog up a little bit, this is because my life has sort of taken a different direction. While fashion is incredibly interesting and quite the art for and an exceptional means of expression; I have learned a lot about myself in recent months.

As crazy as this is about to sound I want to return to the classics. And no as cliché as this post is, I am not referring to literary classics. What I mean is life classics, or the classic way of life.

I am speaking of ediquitte, class and bringing the southern bell way of life up north!

speaking of up north, I am leaving Ottawa to go home tomorrow woohoo! and the alpha chapter of Delta Psi Delta starts recruitment soon!

I am almost finished our website as well!

very exciting!

Update again hopefully soon loves !

Vintage?

2010-04-23T12:02:00.000-07:00

It appears that vintage is making a big come back, and yes I do know it has been for a while....

But, as of late it seems to be popping up everywhere I look!

This is very much style I have seen around campus for most of this semester, Kind of boyish and very modern, yet very vintage at the same time, add all those together and what do you get? = classic look

Keeping with Vintage a little 70's / 80's and a bit of pre- 90's Madonna mixed in there from Alice ...

A little Flapper here

A little hippie there

I think as long as you do Vintage and do it right no matter the era your style will surely stand out from the crowd!

afternoon!

2010-04-09T11:23:00.000-07:00

CIAO BELLAS!

I have had quite the interesting day let me tell you! but for now let me show you something much more interesting then my day!

some of you may have heard of her.....
this is my favorite illustrators Laura Laine

On a more fashionable note...

I am finding that Leopard print is very very in!

2010-04-08T09:35:00.000-07:00

Hey loves,tis moi ces't vrai,

I hope you didn't put away those military jackets because I have news for you!

According to one of my favorite style watching sites they are a still in!

On a side note, I am very sorry I have not been posting as I had previously promised I would but I have become increasingly busy since I have been at school I can tell you that haha.

any ways the University I wound up at is Carleton University, not exactly the creme de la creme...je sais ha ha. mes je suis content ici,

I am taking global politics and that is and exclusive program...there are less than 20 in the whole university in this major!

but, if there is one thing I have learned about university it that it is not what people im

agine in any light!

as I sit here beside my boyfriend in the kitchen of his town house while his roomate is at the dinning table listening to classic rock and it softly resinates through the house, the smell of freshly cooked grill cheese wafts through the kitchen...I realize a couple of things

1. engineers are a curious species...(which half of the house is engineers and the other two are industrial design and a math major) they drink all night, worry about their exam and then piss the day away doing nothing, explain that to me?

2. you will find people will spend more time on sporcle a quiz site that quizes your knowledge on random facts, then they do study for their exams...I don't get the addiction myself but my roommates are also addicted I can peer into their rooms at any hour of the night and see them multi-tasking scorple and their essays lol..

as for me...I have concentration issues AKA I procrastinate I have distracted myself with my sorority this semester and it has been ever sooooo much fun ΔΨΔ <3>

DRAMA//eternally chic

2009-02-07T17:07:00.000-08:00

I Love both of these looks they are really close to my own style...comfortable with a touch of eternally chic! as for my life?

dra·ma
1.
a. A prose or verse composition, especially one telling a serious story, that is intended for representation by actors impersonating the characters and performing the dialogue and action.
b. A serious narrative work or program for television, radio, or the cinema.
2. Theatrical plays of a particular kind or period: Elizabethan drama.
3. The art or practice of writing or producing dramatic works.
4. A situation or succession of events in real life having the dramatic progression or emotional effect characteristic of a play: the drama of the prisoner's escape and recapture.
5. The quality or condition of being dramatic: a summit meeting full of drama.
DRAMA that's what I got...

2009-02-03T18:52:00.000-08:00

So...any one know how to write a response essay to Plato's the Cave?....well, aside from home work I have a little report on shoes...apparently according to my observations the shy-high wedge. I have found it is more popular in black and these shoes let me warn you are not cheap...and not for those who don't like to bleed their pocket books dry...the shoes are gevinchy! well, if you want to get noticed...these are the shoes!

Wide leg pants//spring trend?

2009-02-01T21:23:00.000-08:00

Well, in a few of the magazines I read and a couple on-line one I have noticed a few trends...The first is wide led pants. la large culotte de jambe semble dériver dans et du style alot si naturellement je vous conseillerais de garder une paire dans vos toilettes. The second is the scarf which I myself have plenty of and think they help dress up any outfit! pendant le printemps cela semble tout à fait évident mais je dirais des couleurs de sorbet et des caractères floraux millésimés parce que nous voyons une touche en arrière aux années soixante et aux années soixante-dises pendant le printemps!

shopping//exams//686

2009-01-23T15:13:00.000-08:00

I am truly sorry I have not posted in about a week! I have exams and we'll, this year they actually count for something. But, today after exams I went shopping with my mom :). I bought a lovely hoodie that's sort-of military style and its so soft and comfortable, it's by 686. It was well worth the money I had to return the bench sweater I had bought earlier this week because it was about 130 dollars. I loved the sweater but it didn't look or feel like a 130 dollars, so it began to weigh on my mind a little bit.ha ha for those of you who have exams good luck!

four

2009-01-14T21:17:00.000-08:00

Ok, so here is the Picture; it is from an action team against the SPP which in short makes Canada give their natural resources to the U.S. and forces Canada to buy resources at a higher cost from another country. sound like NAFTA? it is but worse we have quotas we will have to meet and ultimately we will be screwed and the states will be sitting pretty.

In an email from one of my friends that blogs on live journal I got the "four" tag: go into you pictures, pick the fourth folder and the fourth picture inside. Then post the Picture with a description underneath.

bonjour mon amis, je suis tres en ce moment! but, on the bright side I got to sleep in today because...no its not a snow day....it's a freezing rain day! in eastern Ontario everything is frozen into a nice shiny VERY slippery surface ha ha. well, Now for my post; I can't believe what I'm reading in three separate magazines! that seventies style is supposed to stay in style for spring! merde de sainte! no offence but, some people don't know how to style themselves and I can see some numerous fashion victims in spring. now, I'd say most bloggers are very good at styling and no, I'm not getting all high and mighty on you and no, I'm not saying I have a perfectly styled outfit everyday but...I'm afraid of acid wash jeans and plaid and especially together! prions il s'entraîne d'accord :)

draping////layers

2009-01-04T17:44:00.000-08:00

If there is one trend I have noticed taking a slow climb in street style it is draping; I see it in many blogs that I frequent and trust me I make sure I am well informed before I tell you these things my lovelies! I read around 12-20 blogs every day to bring you my summary of the street style of the day. now I tell you drape...draping is definitely prominent you will see lots of layered jersey fabric from the basic designers and the main stream style stores like H&M just you wait!

I have just come back from shopping in toronto and I just bought this great green shirt which is: pilosophy di alberta ferretti, the best news its was only $445 dollars can you believe that, I can`t! and I vow now to leave you chic readers for a very long while I have just been at my friends house for the last three days or so...too much alcohol to remember....I mean it was new years for goodness sake!

But in teal....very pretty on me, considering I'm very white lol.

HOLA! buenos tardes! I am very sorry that I did not post yesterday, but I have very exciting news! I just bought my prom dress here in Acapulco, yep in Mexico. For those of you that don't watch "My Sweet 16" or know very much about the Mexican culture they have something here called a Quince anos or on MTV you may have heard it called a Quinceara. basically it is like one girl's debutant ball...they pay huge money for these dresses I'm talking 10,000 pesos. these dresses are just dripping with material....they have 12 yards of farbric in the skirts and they are often worn with hoops. So I thought what better to do than get one of these dresses for prom? it will be the biggest one there and...the only one of it's kind there! oh...and I bought a Mexican fire opal ring....one of the most expensive opals on the planet....but that was only a few thousand pesos. anyways....pictures....

a pic from my trip to NYC (CENTRAL PARK)

hello, this is not a post about fashion so if you happened to come across the blog I currently host for the less than adoring public considering I haven't hit star status, but don't get me wrong love posting for every single person who reads it and I love you all <3.

but, as of late I have been feeling a little or should I say engulfed in a mountainous amount of stress, My ex boyfriend is dating my best friend and when I tried to make peace with them, well, lets say I cried that night! hence why I can't wait to be done school, plus on top of that my average is only an 84.3% or a 3.67 GPA which is not were it needs to be I want to get in to queens or western...for those who are not Canadian they are the Yale and Princeton of Canada I don't know what to do... I feel completely alone because all of my friends have a BF or a GF and then there is me and considering the situation listed above I think that glass of wine had was well deserved I'm rather drunk and tired and my grammar is horrible so I think I'm going to be now considering it is around 1 am and my laptop wants to rest too. Toot-a-loo

EXCITED!!!!!

hey! i'm finished school today and discovered I don't like economics because the math has no intergral pattern that one can base an actual equation off of all it is, is this: the change in this devivded by the change in that gives you QS and then use that to find MU but first you have to complete the chart using and different equation? I think I Liked pre-calculus much better! (which I dropped in a week) any ways I don't want to bore you with economic math I just needed to get that off my chest, so this is my take on the white shirt\menswear. Hope you like it loves.

- Keep the world beautiful
~Alex (Lexie)

Hé ! je suis fini l'école et j'ai découvert aujourd'hui n'aime pas que la science économique parce que les maths n'a pas le modèle d'intergral que l'un peut baser une véritable équation de de tout c'est, est ceci : le changement dans ce devivded par le changement dans que vous donne QS et alors l'usage qui pour trouver MU mais premier vous devez complet le graphique utilisant et l'équation différente ? Je pense que j'Ai Aimé le pré-calcul beaucoup de mieux ! (Que j'ai tombé dans une semaine) n'importe quelles façons que je ne veux pas vous ennuyer avec les maths économiques j'ai eu juste besoin d'obtenir que de ma poitrine, donc ceci est mon prend la chemise blanche\le prêt-à-porter pour hommes. Espérer que vous aimez qu'il aime.

Karl Laegerdfeld, funny man?

2008-11-03T20:01:00.000-08:00

I was so inspired after reading Karl Lagerfeld's blog...that man is the most amusing man to sit there and just read there and read the thoughts that just stream from his head on to the key board in front of him! I don't believe my creative genius is anything of the sort so at the moment I am not going to attempt to make anyone who reads this laugh or entice your own creative genius but I shall show you what made me so amused:

My Bookshop
Person: Karl, can could I please buy this book?

Karl: Hmm? You want to buy this book?

Person: Yes.Karl: Get on the scales, then.

Person: What???

Karl: We need to see if your weight suits that book. Brad! Get the scales!

Person:..?!?

Karl: Just step over here. Hmm.Person: Hmmm?

Karl: I'm the only one that does those "hmm?"'s, hmm?

Person: ...yes.

Karl: Just stand on the scales!

Person: ...Karl: You are 50 kgs. That's pretty fat, for someone who wears Balenciaga!

Person: but?Karl: No buts! Run! Run! Run!

Person: [starts running]

Karl: Why are you running around my bookshop, hmmm?

Person: You [puff] told me [puff] too!

Karl: Stop it! Let's weigh you.

Person: [steps on scales]

Karl: 49.99!

Person: Is it good enough?

Karl: Are your jeans skinny enough?

Person: Yes Karl! My jeans are skinny! My jeans are skinny!

Karl: Okay. 500 Pounds.

Person: The price says $40, and this is France so what you're doing charging in those amounts--

Karl: Do you weigh $40?

Person: I weigh 49.99...

Karl: KILOGRAMS. NOT DOLLARS.

Person: I suppose you're right, then.

Karl: $600 now.

Person: what th-?

Karl: You're wasting my time!

Mary-Kate Olsen: You don't have to be around people who waste your time, Karl.

Ashley Olsen: You can be with us.

Mary-Kate: I see you've got a daughter now.

Ashley: What about us.

Karl: SCALES! NOW! BOTH OF YOU! BRAD...DEAL WITH THIS FATTY.

2008-11-03T18:25:00.000-08:00

So...today I couldn't decide between what I wanted to do menswear or romantic? well, I thought I was feeling a little bit like lonely and boy less; plus I'm an awful hopeless romantic so I thought why not both? mind you i don't know how great it looks mixing trends like that but hey its lonely, crazy, romantic and well, me!

- keep the word beautiful

~Alex (Lexie)

en français: Si. ..today je ne pourrais pas décider entre ce que j'ai voulu faire du prêt-à-porter pour hommes ou romantique ? bien, j'ai pensé je me sentais un peu comme solitaire et le garçon moins ; plus je suis un terrible sans espoir romantique si j'ai pensé pourquoi les deux pas ? vous a des objections je ne sais pas grand il paraît de tendance mélangeant comme ça mais hé son solitaire, fou, romantique et bien, moi

A first fashion moment

2008-11-03T13:20:00.000-08:00

Today I decided to show everyone what I'm wearing (any cheers?....probably not) lately I have been reading a lot of blogs and looking at what people are doing. I personally love to see what people are wearing because there are two kinds of fashion (in my humble opinion) haute couture what the lovely Karl and Donatella and Philip and Marc give us, and for the rest of us who don't make millions a year and most definitely don't spend a few thousand on a dress, there is street fashion: for the people who will walk into banana republic, H&M or Zara and pick up some trends.
personally I love winners its like a fashion paradise (heaven is Holt Renfrew) so I decided to go for my own version of street fashion hope you enjoy it.

- Keep the world beautiful

~ Alex (Lexie)

Aujourd'hui j'ai décidé de tout le monde montrer que je porte (n'importe quelles acclamations ? ....probably pas) dernièrement j'ai été lu beaucoup de blogs et regarde quels gens font. J'aime voir personnellement quels gens portent parce qu'il y a deux types de mode (dans mon Humilier l'opinion) haute couture que le beau Karl et Donatella et Philip et Marc donnent nous, et pour nous qui ne fait pas les millions par an et ne dépense pas le plus sans aucun doute quelque millier sur une robe, il y a la mode de rue : pour les gens qui marcheront dans la république de banane, H&ampli ; M ou Zara et prend quelques tendances. Personnellement j'aime les vainqueurs son aimé un paradis de mode (le ciel est Holt Renfrew) si j'ai décidé d'aller pour ma propre version d'espoir de mode de rue vous l'appréciez.

wow, so this is my very first post? I'm feeling very inspired by the fifties at the moment; mainly and most likely because I'm watching "Mad Men". It is the first time I have seen the show and the clothes are just amazing....not to say that I'm brave enough to wear any thing of the sort out of my house. maybe I am rambling because it's close to midnight if not there already, I promise future posts will me more awe inspiring.
