OMG! THIS lady is so cool

So I was going through  Lucky magazine when I came across a lady named Erica whose introducing her blog. I immediatley searched it and found it to be extremely creative and deff worth looking in to. What she does is she sees something she likes, say..on the runway or designer or something she spotted on the street, and she creates the same ideas onto her outfits. She cuts, sews, and glues fabric to make the same designs in her own chic way. She even made her own book!
Check it out, girls (and guys?):

So she says:
"Boxy silhouette bags are making a huge comeback for Fall/Winter 2010.  Louis Vuitton is bringing the sexy lady back, while Ralph Lauren continues to knock us out with versions of his famously luxe Ricky bag (yes! Named for RL’s knock-out wifey)."

hmm....I deff agree with Erica, Louis Vuitton did mak a huge comeback this year, but it is very expensive. I like how she shows a way of making your own boxy silhouette bag using a lunchbox! This lady is sick.

"P.S.- NEVER SAY NEVER TO NEON!  I love infusing bright and funky highlighter shades into my world"

noo wayyyy....I deff cannot stand neon bright colors and such...especially for fall/winter. I like to stick to solid hues, mainly dark ones. I dont think neon colors really go well with femininity, unless your style is an all out funky edgy one. But other than that, I wouldn't wanna stand out like fireworks. Sorry Erica, got a disagree with you on that one..

omgg but this here is my favorite, she made charms! and they look really hot attached to a satchel or a hobo...hmm think i might do that..
Lucky Charms are magically delicious and so is JEWELRY!  One of my favorite jewelry designers, Dana Lorenz of Fenton/Fallon continues to wow us season after season with her over-the-top statement pieces, terrific textures, and sparkling situations. Dana recently invited me and a few other fab friends over and let us loose in her shop. She graciously gifted charms and broken pieces of past collections for a special P.S. project!  I loved the idea of blinging out my fall bag with a bag charm using her fun elements.
To create a chic bag charm, re-purpose broken or old jewlez, charms, pendants, pieces, basically anything fun you can get your hands on.  Tie your bits and bobs onto string or cording and secure to a binder ring. Make sure you hang at different lengths to create a staggered effect. Clip onto your bag with a carabiner clip and you are one leading lucky charm lady!
