Shoe Lust: Versace Spring 2013

Versace’s Spring 2013 collection shoes for the season are up for pre-order! Gladiator-inspired is the theme with sultry wraparound and lace-up detailing and gold embellishment. Heels measure 5.25″ and up so start practicing and get those calves strong for the season.


Talk about statement-making footwear! I like the way the classic Versace emblem is featured on the knee-high gladiator pumps



A selection of the brand’s handbags for the season are also available, you will have to shelf out a pretty penny for the designs, but they will last in your wardrobe for years to come.






The collection retails for $1,445 – $8,025, so open a separate savings account immediately! You can pre-order the collection now at www.modaoperandi.com.

Show Review: Louis Vuitton Spring 2013



Marc Jacobs packed a punch in his bright, short, and sweet Spring 2013 collection for Louis Vuitton which definitely had an abstract minimalist vibe, juxtaposing bold prints and colors with uncomplicated designs.




Shades of brown and burgundy got their time to shine in various check patterns, combining the shade with white and silver metallic on knee-length pencil skirts, long-sleeve crop tops, and an adorable sweater/shorts combination that read modern “It” girl for sure.





Lemon and kelly green uplifted ladylike suits, long-sleeve knee length dresses (one was sheer for an added dose of sensuality), and gowns that someone like Fan Bingbing or Zoe Saldana might have the guts to rock on the red carpet.







I couldn’t ignore the shoes and handbags from the collection, now could I?

Pictures From The 2012 Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage Award Ceremony Honoring Quincy Jones

Stars in entertainment, music, and fashion all showed up to pay homage to Quincy Jones at the 2012 Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage Award Ceremony thrown in his honor at the Chateau Marmont in LA. The looks ranged from red carpet-ready to quirky, so you can be the judge on who got it right for the night.
Let’s get into the ensembles shall we?


Cute couple Selita Ebanks and Terrence J were on hand in neutral shades. I am really feeling his contrast lapel jacket!

Rashida Jones brought some color to the event in a bold print dress and a pair of pink studded Valentino pumps. she looks great.

Neutrals with a pop of color was the look of the night for Jesse Williams who tried on a pair of purple wingtips for size. I like this!

Kim Porter wore a $417 A.L.C. Tux Maxi Dress to the event. She’s beautiful, but the fit is off here. Too bad because it’s a great dress.

Victoria Rowell continued to defy aging (and the laws of fashion) in a getup that had far too many focal points. Sigh.

Morgan Freeman served in an all-black suit. Get on his level gentlemen!

To round out the night, Quincy Jones gave his grey suit some color with a striped scarf, like any cool musician would do.

Men’s Fashion Flash: Victor Cruz’s Barclays Center Givenchy Red and Black Striped Cotton Sweater

Victor Cruz, The New York Giants star wide receiver attended a Jay-Z concert at the Barclays Center over the weekend in a $560 Red and Black Striped Cotton Givenchy Sweater


The Fall/Winter 2012 piece features Givenchy’s signature stars, along with bold black and red stripes.

It should look familiar: Meek Mill wore the same sweater almost the exact same way for a music video back in August.

Happy Independence day Nigeria!! its gonna be a different feature today cos its celebration all the way..i bring you a Nigerian Fashionista! Check out Fisayo from UK:
She writes, “My style can’t be described in a few words or put into a box as I am constantly diving into unfamiliar territory.”


” In every outfit I wear, there is likely to be an element of chic, vintage and/or edginess.”


” If an outfit is very ladylike, I am likely to juxtapose it by throwing in some studs, spikes or leather.”


” I love contrast and I love leather, exaggerated shoulders…”

“… glitter and varying textures.”


” My style is influenced by places I’ve been, my fashion icons, blogs I follow, editorials and trends I like.”


” I enjoy sharing my love for fashion, lifestyle and travel on my blog Mirror Me (www.mirrorme.me).”


” Styling outfits makes me truly happy and looking good is a great confidence boost especially on a grey winter’s day.”


“You know that quote ‘stressed, depressed, but well dressed’? I love it.”


” You can keep up with me on Instagram (http://web.stagram.com/n/mirrormemore/), twitter (https://twitter.com/mirrormemore) and facebook (https://www.facebook.com/mirrormemore).”
