Filippa Hamilton

I was absolutely amazed when I saw this ad for Ralph Lauren. Ralph Lauren always stood for classic americana. It was a brand that was easy to wear and had the ability to make women feel good about themselves. I was so surprised that they would even think of releasing such a ridiculous ad. First of all Filippa Hamilton is a gorgeous women with the perfect body, there was no need to Photoshop her dramatically at all. If your going to photoshop someone at least have a decency to do a good job. This ad is hideous, her head is larger than size of her hips ! I'm disappointed that Ralph would allow such a ad and even release it. The worst of all is Filippa Hamilton revealed that she had been fired for being to large. This girl is 5 10" and 120 pounds, how is that to large in any sense ? She even admitted her self that she did fit into the clothes, maybe not as perfectly as Ralph Lauren wanted it. Poor girl, she has been with Ralph Lauren since she was 15, now 23. In an interview with the Today Show, Filippa Hamilton said that she felt betrayed because she felt Ralph Lauren was her second family. Best wishes to Filippa Hamilton, she is a beautiful model, and I hope others of the industry realize that.

Polka Dot Tights Continued......

So my lovely dad decided to take me shopping at my local mall, which is completely useless because the two only decent stores are Gap and American Eagle. So while browsing American Eagle for some basics , I came upon the swiss dot tights, that I have been searching online for. They were 12 dollars, which isn't bad since online I been seeing around 8-13 euros. So I decided to buy them along with the cutest dress, which I will do an outfit post later.

Resort 2010

I love the new Resort Collections. Here are few our my favorites.
Alexander Wang

Alexander Wang decided to go more light this collection. I love the color and sturcture of the jacket andthe long jacket with jean shorts is great. This outfit is so such a casual going to breakfest outfit.

I love the crochet laceish top witht the harem pants. The monochromatic look is also very chic. Can't you just see Serena in the top with a brown leather jacket.

the chrocet top is genius it is casual but chic. I love the look with jeans.

Temperley London
I love Alice Temperley, she always design feminine dresses with a grecian twist or romantic and boho.I love her use of color.

This simple grecian dress is perfect a summer party.
