I was browsing through blogs and one reminded me of this movie.

ohhh! I am feeling so nostalgic now. A Little Princess is one of the sweetest movies ever!! If you haven't seen it yet, well, you are really missing out! Please watch it ASAP!!

It teaches you about love, friendship, and remember that you are worthy. But most importantly, you must be a good person. Every little girl must watch this movie. And every Mom or Dad must remind their baby girl that she IS A PRINCESS!! We all are!

GRRR!!

and I mean GRR in a sexy animal kinda way.

I get my daily emails from WhoWhatWear.com almost everyday. Its like getting a present every day. I post a blog yesterday about Leather. I love it. WhoWhatWear writes theee best trend reports. And here is another on Leopard Accents! ENJOY!!!

Every season, there are a handful of prints on the prowl, but for autumn, trendsetters are pouncing on one in particular: leopard. While animal-influenced patterns are nothing new—after all, everyone from Carole Lombard to Kate Moss has worn the classic spots—we're quite enamored with the way modern style-stars are working them into their wardrobes. Though many of the fall runways showed super-bold or head-to-toe leopard looks (see Blumarine for example), we like the way fashion frontrunners are only wearing a single accent piece. Sometimes that item is emphatic and makes the whole outfit, such as the vintage leopard-print dress Agyness Deyn wore while attending the Alexander Wang after-party a few weeks ago. The newly raven-haired model wore the frock unbuttoned over a distressed white t-shirt and black pants, and further tempered the eye-catching print by wearing a cropped moto jacket over everything. By sticking to black and white everywhere else, she both spotlights and tones down the leopard and modernizes it. While Deyn's exact piece is difficult to duplicate, we think you could achieve a similar vibe by adding Yarnz's Leopard Scarf ($165) to an otherwise neutral outfit. Of course, not everyone will be in the mood to commit to such a large accent, but that doesn't mean you can't try the trend! Instead, you can take a cue from Misha Barton who worked today's topic into her outfit subtly. Instead of reaching for a blouse or body-con dress, the actress instead chose What Goes Around Comes Around's Vintage Leather Moto Jacket($598) with leopard accents at the collar for a night out during New York Fashion Week. Barton found her one-of-a-kind piece at the amazing Manhattan outpost of What Goes Around Comes Around, which gives us hope that we'll find a similar style at our local vintage boutiques. But perhaps the easiest—and best—way to wear leopard accents is via accessories, à la Rihanna and former GOTM Caroline Sieber. The always fashion-forward songstress pushed the directional envelope just a few days ago when she was spotted at the airport in Berlin wearing a gray bold-shoulder Marc Jacobs Sweatshirt Dress ($1100) and a cute pair of Christian Louboutin Miss Clichy Boots ($1375). Stylist Caroline Sieber also opted for a hint of the print recently when she carried Roger Vivier's Heart Attack Bag ($1595, 310.550.5900) in Pony to a cocktail party during New York Fashion Week. We love the way the bag pops against her Louis Vuitton Bow Knit Top ($1048, 866.884.8866) and Contrast Layers Skirt ($2247, 866.884.8866); it brings a hint of savage chic to her feminine outfit. If you'd like a few accessories in the animal print, we have suggestions. Shoe-wise, you might like Betsey Johnson's Carlos Booties ($200), or you can try Rachel Comey's Medium Buckle Belt ($265) or J.Crew's Skinny Cheetah Calf-Hair Belt ($55) for a touch of leopard in your look. (Yes, the latter is technically not leopard, but it's close and cute!) Also check out Urban Outfitters' Leopard Risky Business ($14), which are totally darling and bebe's Veronica Platform Pumps ($149) for some additional budget-friendly additions.

Leather Baby

If you've popped by a store in the past month or seen images from just about any of the fall runways, no doubt you know that the look du jour is all about leather—indisputably! While the little leather jacket has been a wardrobe staple for countless seasons, lately designers are turning their attention away from this ubiquitous piece and exploring other silhouettes and styles. Now that the material (and many great faux alternatives) is no longer relegated to simply outerwear and accessories, we're spotting leather-focused looks on all kinds of ladies, ranging from society mavens to stylish models. And if today's fashion plates aren't reason enough to try the trend, consider the fact that this trend is definitely going to loiter for at least another season or two. Trust us: we logged no less than fifty leather looks on New York's S/S 10 runways!



But before we get into next season's trends, let's examine the way trendsetters are wearing these pieces now. Obviously the most intense looks involve head-to-toe leather, like theProenza Schouler jumpsuit Chloe Sevigny wore to a magazine launch party a few months ago. The directional suit is from the line's S/S 09 collection and definitely offers the edgiest version of the trend. Of course, you can get a semblance of Sevigny's panache without fully committing to a black leather onesie; simply look for trousers instead. Not to discount one of our favoritefall essentials, but we think Geren Ford's Pleated Leather Pants ($595) and Jenni Kayne'sLeather Trousers ($895) are wonderfully wearable options. Additionally, you could pick up a pair of menswear-inspired shorts, like Charlotte Ronson's Leather Shorts with High Waist ($193), which will still be on-trend come spring.

If you're not sure Sevigny's statement style is for you, but you're still feeling bold, take some outfit-inspiration from model Chanel Iman. Spotted at a Julianne Moore-hosted dinner in honor of Bottega Veneta's Tomas Maier, Iman impressed us with her draped leather dress. The Nero Washed Lambskin Dress ($3900, 877.362.1715) is a stunner thanks to its soft lines and feminine shape, which are both gorgeous and unexpected; the design offers the perfect contrast to the material's inherent toughness. While similar styles are definitely going to require some financial investment, we did sleuth out an incredible and affordable iteration: Eksempel'sSleeveless Leather Look Dress ($192).

Of course, if you'd prefer to mix a smaller leather element into your outfit, you've got loads of wardrobe role models to emulate as well. We always like the look of a black leather skirt, whether it's a pencil style à la Agyness Deyn or something sexier, like the banded mini Lily Donaldson wore to the Richard Hambleton exhibition during New York Fashion Week. The marvelous Ms. Donaldson looked every inch the major model in her snug skirt and seriously waist-cinching belt (the former is an insider find from Golde while the latter is the La Haute Belt($395) by Kiki de Montparnasse). Just keep her styling choices in mind and mix the industrial leather with something lighter, like a super soft t-shirt or tank. While we're wild about Vince'sBondage Leather Mini Skirt ($695), if you're not ready to splurge, be sure to check out Silence & Noise's Tiered Faux Leather Skirt ($78) or the Warehouse's Buckle Leather Mini Skirt ($128), which comes with its own belt-like details.

Our final favorite way to work leather into our autumnal wardrobe is best illustrated by Byrdie Bell, who gave us a fashion crush when she threw on a cool moto vest over a long girly gown for the same Richard Hambleton party (what a fete!). Though her Yigal Azrouel dress is unquestionably gorgeous, it could feel a bit precious for anything less than a black-tie event. But when worn with G-Star's Correct Gilet ($480), the combination suddenly seems completely cool and relevant for less-dressy occasions. The leather vest is also a great piece to wear with more casual fare as well. In fact, it can be used to add interest to a simple outfit, much like the way one accessorizes with an oversized patterned scarf. We adore Topshop's Sleeveless Leather Biker Gilet ($170), but in addition to these boxy moto styles, there are also a number of more-fitted pieces on the market. Try bebe's Leather Knit Back Vest ($149) for a slim, slightly Edwardian look or Erin Wasson x RVCA's Hard Loser Leather Vest ($209) if your taste tends to run on the rock'n'roll side of things. Whatever your style is, you're sure to find at least one way to incorporate transitional leather into your current look!

Im certain of my fate

I figured it out! What you ask?

The reason why I am still single. Even after all my desperate attempts to find someone.

Let me enlighten you.

I am single for the sole reason that I do not find any potential suitor well qualified.

I have created a cemented idea of exactly what I am looking for in a man. I can not even write what that is exactly because I do not even know every little aspect. But I do know when a man does not have that quality. I can tell by first glance. Just let me hear him speak and I'll be able to tell you.

College is suppose to be a time in which someone dates aimlessly. But I don't have that bone in my system. I am incapable of doing that. Its not to say that the guy I would date would have to be my last and potential husband. BUT it is to say, I refuse to date whomever. I want every relationship I have to be a memorable one. A relationship in whic I would learn something about myself. I have it cemented in my brain that if this man who i date is not qualified to have what I am looking for, well then, he will not give me what I am looking for.

So there you have it.

My perfect guy only exsist in my perfect world.

Therefore, I will die a virgin and with 7 cats.

great. :/
