It's currently raining--hard, might I add. Not only is the rain pouring, but the wind is blowing, the thermometer keeps going down, and the heater is always on. I'd say I'm ready for Spring to be here, and the new collections for the aforementioned season aren't helping.

Spring is in the Air

Sex & The City
I'm an avid fan of the TV series. I own all of the seasons on DVD and know every episode only because I've watched each one about 100 times. Call me obsessed, but I think it's fabulous. The characters are wonderfully portrayed, each with a fantastic sense for fashion. I think it's wonderful how any woman can relate to any one of the characters, if not all of them. There's sophisticaed, neurotic Charlotte; Sexy-chic Samantha; Sarcastic, cynical Miranda; and eclectic, crazy Carrie. All of them have their own, unique styles, which offer great inspiration for viewers.

Geepers Creepers, Where'd You Get Those Peepers?
Glasses. They seem to be all the rage from high fashion runways to hipster street style. This time, the frames are large, mirroring that of 1980's style. "Geek Chic" is what it's notoriously named, and it's never been better. Now those like me can let their inner nerd shine without feeling fashion-limited.

Bow-Wow-Wow
No, I don't mean the sound a dog makes. I mean the fabulous accessory that seems to be popping up everywhere lately from headbands to dresses. I don't know about you, but I've developed quite a liking for bows, and can't help but fight the urge to include at least one in all of my outfits.
They're just too cute to pass up, and can add a burst of color and personailty to an otherwise bland ensemble.
Marc Jacobs displayed a few on his dresses in his Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring 2008 collection (left) as well as in the form of head pieces in his Marc Jacobs Spring 2008 collection (right).
Apart from this, take a look at Leighton Meester's character, Blair Waldorf (below, left), on television's hit show Gossip Girl. Her red bow headband pops, and adds that chic flair that is undeniably Blair. The headband adds to her preppy, chic look, and has fans envying her sophisticated style.
Want to incorporate this cute accessory into your wardrobe? There are multitudinous opitions for any style. Borrow Blair's way and wear a headband, or take inspiration from Marc and wear a bow-bedecked dress or blouse. You can even do it DIY style: make your own out of ribbon, and apply anywhere.

Hello World!
I finally decided to create a blog; not just any blog, but one that incorporates my multitudinous passions: fashion, photography, music, movies, and all of the great things in between. Art, in general, I suppose. I'll be posting things that inspire me that will hopefully, in turn, inspire those who read what I post. Creativity, ingenuity, imagination and inspiration are all things I hope to portray and capture through my musings. I hope everyone enjoys.
