Onto the Marni. The next big collaboration in the works is Marni for H&M. I have to mention that I have never been all that impressed with the H&M collaborations. The quality never matches the price. There are always a few pieces that appeal to me online initially, however, in person they look a bit cheap. Marni however, I am hoping is a different story. Afterall, I have a giftcard from Christmas burning a hole in my wallet! I am also hoping that because Marni isn't a giant name among the masses, mainly worshiped by the true devotees of fashion, that it won't be another rampage to snag items. But, if you love graphic prints, bold colors and quirk...you're going to love Marni. This Italian house always produces clean lined clothing that shows simplicity and pizazz at the same time. Here's the ad, done by another favorite, Sofia Coppola.

next up: Marni for H&M
Today was the launch of Jason Wu for Target and off course it was a huge success. I couldn't manage to haul myself out of bed this morning in order to score anything. I scooped up a bag and scarf last night online, but opted to shop the clothing in store. Mistake. By the time I got there nothing was left, just a blouse and skirt. Either way, I got the two things I wanted the most. Before I go on to Marni, can I just say how annoying it is that there are these trolls out there buying up all the goods and turning around and selling them on ebay for triple the price. All I can say is, Bad Fashion Karma.

Oh, the flash of it all.
Hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving! I spent some wonderful lazy days in Richmond with my parents and best friend, it was a great and much needed mini break. I did score some amazing finds at the Sak's Fifth Avenue after Thanksgiving sale, more on that later as I left my camera behind. But fear not, it is in transit back to me. Let's just say there is some DVF in there! Anyways, I love coming back to Chicago after Thanksgiving break because it seems like it's instantly Christmas time. All the lights and wreaths are up and it's that final countdown for school to end (forever!!). Here's a little collage of some of my favorite christmas things:
Hello Kitty Ornaments: I'm determined to have a Hello Kitty tree this year!
Barbie Christmas Plates: Love these! They would be perfect for parties.
Panettone: This Italian Christmas treat is a must at my house, always served warm with loads of butter!
Sally Hansen Salon Effects Strips: I've had these awesome plaid nails since Halloween as I've been saving them for the holidays.
Tacky Light Tours: Is there anything more fun than running around strangers' lawns?
Chanel Red Lipstick: Perfect with any party dress.
Sofia Coppola Champagne: Such a pretty bottle and would be great for making Belinis and Mimosas
Metallic Pink Tree: The tacky girl within wants nothing more than this flash!
