H&M and "Sonia's Secret?"

So! Remember sometime ago when I told you guys about H&M collaborating with Knit wear designer Sonia Rykiel? Well in that same post I vaguely mentioned the fact that there will also be lingerie to go along with the line, rightfully so, we have to wear something underneath our clothes, no? Yes. Here's a sneak peek of the line. Now these ladies aren't exactly giving me Victoria's Secret fierceness on the runway, but the pieces are uber cute. Tell me what you think about it!

Sweet Tee of the week

This sweet tee is brought to you by my friend's line, Jah New York! It's [the softest] white tee with a painting of the Brooklyn Bridge in it's background topped off the clothing line's signature. As per their website the description is as followed: Made from Premium Bamboo and Organic cotton. Bamboo fiber is softer than the softest cotton, has a natural sheen to the surface and feels similar to silk or cashmere. 70% Bamboo / 30% Organic Cotton blend. Water based print for a very soft feel. <---SWEET! If someone read that to me while I had my eyes close I'd buy it just because it sounds so good! I like this shirt, its giving me a very cool artsy feel. This tee is $30 and is available at  this link; http://jahnystore.bigcartel.com/product/ny-tag.

Shopaholic's...this one's for you:

Moving along... part two of my sample sale posts includes Charlotte Ronson, Derek Lam [SCREAM!] and Dolce Vita Shoes! C. Ronson started yesterday and will end tomorrow, sorry, I was tardy for the party, but better late than never, right?

I know I’d give a major smooch to the person who got me a gift from any one of these designers. No mistletoe necessary. Think about it. As always, happy shopping!

Strike a Frugal Pose

Here we go again...a collaboration that no one could've expected! Well, maybe it's not so far fetched anymore to see designers cheapen up these days. About a week or two ago, I excitedly posted about Zac Posen creating a sportswear line that will be sold in Saks Fifth Avenue come 2010 [Refer to “Posen has Spoken” for details]. Now it seems that Mr. Haute Couture is all about the affordable fly since he's now teamed up with Target! I read in UK Vogue’s site that Zac will be joining the retailers’ Go International Collection, which includes the likes of designers such as, Thakoon, and hot young Bay area native Erin Fetherston. Alexander McQueen and Anna Sui have already graced Target with their designs and although I failed to purchase either one, they looked pretty fab from what I saw. Obviously I'm really anxious to see what Zac will come up with. The collection will only be available to purchase in select stores and on line from April 25th to May 3oth 2010, since that's not, like tomorrow and you have a million things on your mind, I'll keep you posted along the way. Who loves you baby?

Happy Shopping!

Sweet Tee of the week

Well...If I told you guys that I had an icon hanging out in my closet then you wouldn't believe me. So that is how she became the sweet tee. Last weekend I was on Fifth Avenue, desperately trying NOT to shop. [I'll pause so you can laugh now] Well, as you've guessed that didn't go so well once I stepped into the Zara. So after I made this $29.99 purchase, I started to wonder how long I'd been walking this earth not knowing about this tribute to Grace Jones? So I did a little research and apparently there was also a grey sweatshirt which is also pictured here. I adore any model that paved the way for chocolate colored women to make a name for themselves on and off the runways of fashion! She's one of the original divas in the game and I'm proud to walk around with that huge lively expression of hers on my chest.

Put a Ring on it

Rachel Roy is killing me with her accessories collection! All of which, if you look closely, goes very nicely with her limited edition Graffiti collection for the Rachel By Rachel Roy line. Once again, she's found a way to incorporate classy with trendy and rightfully so Ms. Roy, that's exactly how I'd describe her personal style. She's done a great job reflecting that in her collections and that's why I'm such a fan! Let’s face it, sometimes the outfit is nothing without the right accessory, so consider this; maybe it's not the dress you're wearing that’s bad but what you're not wearing it with. So if you liked it then you should've worn a ring with it! [Sorry, couldn't help myself, too easy] Featured above are my favorites, Top Right, to Bottom left: Worn Gold red lips Ring $38, Hematite Crystal Cocktail Ring $40, Worn Gold two ringer spear $32, Worn Gold Signature heart $44, Hammered square ring $32, Hematite Fashion Ring $50!

Sweet Tee of the week

Umm...YEP, THAT’S WHAT I SAID!! [LOL!] - This sweet tee comes to us courtesy of my friend and fellow bloginista Nickey-Ann of http://www.antipopblog.com/ ! Urban Outfitters is the retail chain responsible for the artistry as they make a second appearance on the Sweet Tee Segment of All Things Fly! She actually saw this in Washington D.C, so make sure you check before you run into your local stores to look! It may be a little derogatory to some, but I guess it all depends on how you translate the word bitch. To me this tee says, I’m about my business and I’m strong minded, and if that’s bitchy to you, than it’s the new Black to me!

Sale Away- Sean John Edition

On the ad it says to tell a friend, so I listened. Happy Shopping!

Sweet Tee of the week

Whenever people around me have issues with each other whether light or heavy, the one phrase that pops in my head is "What's Beef?” And I just start rapping the song in my head. Ha-ha ...no kidding, I promise. It's one of my favorite songs by the late and great Notorious B.I.G, only because it makes a lot of sense. So this week, I dedicate the sweet tee to the Jay-Z and Beanie Siegel "Beef", just hug it out guys, it's not like anyone's going to “see anyone in ICU" for this, ok? Ok. Refer to the previous post if you don’t know what I’m talking about.

This tee is available at: http://www.districtlines.com/10107-Biggie-T-Shirt/Serra-Velle/T-Shirts  and is being sold for $12.00

Sale Away -Nordstrom's Half -Yearly

Sweet Tee of the week

In honor of the release of his documentary film "This is it", I dedicate the sweet tee of the week to the memory of Michael Jackson. I found this tee shirt on line on tshirthub.com and thought it was cute and clever it reads: He may have been "Off The Wall", But when he sang it was always such a "Thriller". Some people called him "Bad" or "Dangerous", But he will always be part of my "History"! Forever, Michael. All hail the late King of Pop! You'll surely be missed. The shirt can be purchased on the site in a varitey of colors, sizes and styles, so get creative at; http://www.tshirthub.com/jaaltee.html

Sweet Tee of the week

I've wanted this tee shirt for the longest, yes it’s a little inappropriate but, man is it necessary!! I mean who doesn't love "new shit" and when I saw they updated it with a "free shit" version, I had to have it. I also had to share it with you guys since you're all flyer then pieces of paper bearing your names! It’s a cheap & chic humorous way to express your self. My number one rule in fashion is to be comfortable, and do what you feel; you can always pull off anything being true to your self no matter what it is. This tee is available at www.UrbanOutfitters.com online store only and its on sale right now too $14.99. Just don't have yours on when I have mine on, and it'll be all good... lol

Shoe Fly!- Plethora of Platform Goodies!

 These Top Shop shoes are like every short girls wet dream. Fishing through their website earlier, I noticed just how many different pairs of platform shoes they had. If you’re anything like me, and love to heighten your outfits because of your vertical challenges, you may need to take a trip down to the Soho District of Manhattan. I particularly loved these and can see all of them paired with one, or two, or ten things in my closet already [yeah, I know, any excuse to shop]. Anyway, here are the Shoe names and prices from top left to bottom right: Symbol Peeped Toe $135, Larissa Velcro $145, Strike Platform $135 (also available in Black), Stealth Platform $145, Levi Strappy Tribal Sandal $145 (also available in a purple/black combo), and the Lucinda $145. For more styles and colors like these and other shoes please visit: www.topshop.com

Sweet Tee of the week

 This week's featured graphic tee shirt is in support of Breast Cancer Awareness month. Pink Items are being sold all over the place this month and proceeds are going to a number of different foundations. This, is just another way to support a great cause. By unanimous decision, the "Breast Cancer Fight Club" t-shirt has been declared the winner in the awareness-raising apparel category at http://www.shop.advanceweb.com/, a medical website for "gear gadgets and gifts". They say that the boxing gloves logo encourages those affected by breast cancer to deliver a haymaker to this oppressive opponent. I find it to be very cute!
