Designer Strobe Light

The House of Viktor & Rolf

(Viktor & Rolf is an
Amsterdam-based fashion brand. The company was founded in 1993 by designers Viktor Horsting (born 1969) and Rolf Snoeren (born 1969). They are famous for fantastical and concept-based designs, mixing extreme ideas with glamourous high-fashion. They also have had a fluctuating, devoted relationship with the fashion world, often played out in the themes of their shows and their overt pursuit of international popularity. A typical showpiece design by Viktor & Rolf is a woman dressed only in oversize pink ribbons, as seen in the 'flowerbomb' collection.)

Mixing the drama of grandly staged opera with the precision-chic of Paris couture, Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren are some of the industry’s most famous—and often—unpredictable—showmen.

Ok those are the basics here is the business.......

Cheap Mondays (Well Sunday)

For this addition of Cheap Monday, we have McQ Alexander McQueen for Target collection.

"The Alexander McQueen for Target collection is said to resemble the aesthetic of his younger McQ line. Drawing inspiration from punk singer, Leila Moss, from The Duke Spirit, McQueen's collection will be adorned with edgy details such as studs and tattoo-print fabrics. Sweaters, skinny jeans, dresses, trench coats, swimwear, and blazers will be made in muted colors with bright accents." I didnt think i would be in love, but I actually went on friday to see the collection in person and try some pieces on and I really liked. I was pleasently suprised.

Cheap Mondays...(Well Saturday)

Welcome to Cheap Mondays! Going through fashion week withdrawal, (Bryant park looks quite empty with out paparazzi, models, celbs, and oh so chic designers!) as well as the current recession one might find it a little difficult to stay on top of trends soooo I thought this would be a fun way to show a less expensive variation of a few of my favorite trends! Cheap and Chic right? Enjoy!

First up, As we all know right now bangles are all the rage and if you're like me, a few is just not enough. I need bangles of all kind on one arm until I can no longer fit any!

These fabulous zebra print bangle are available at http://www.bebe.com/ for the low low price of $45! I'd buy two sets and stack them.

These bangles are for $199 for a set of three by Dolce & Gabbana. Which a a great price considering alot of high end bangles sell for $200 each. I love that these are three different but fit together well, they flow.

CC SKYE bangle for $60. very cute! Wood jewelry is a super big deal this season!

Next up we have the cage shoe trend. These are by Yves Saint Laurent ,

and here's a less expensive version from http://www.bakers.com/ for around $80 bucks. I have yet to figure out what goes well with these shoes but I have faith in them.

Hot Studs! Make a huge statement new from Giuseppe Zanotti for Balmain studded sandals on the left...They run for about $2,700 and you can grab a pair at Bergdorf's. BUT, if you are strapped for cash, check out the Aldo version on the right which go for about $125.

I live for studded everything obviously! On the left we have Gucci Babouska Boot $1895 and Bakers Studs Boot $245.99 on the right.

Or if you are simply just fabulous beyond words, a friend of my added the rivets to her boots herself. What an awesome job!
