Plush Junkie

We adore Elie Saab for the gorgeous draped and ruched gowns that grace the red carpet each awards season. For Spring 2010, the  designer stepped outside of his box by taking to the Paris runway with a daring new collection. Broad shouldered dresses and crisscrossed embroidery are an edgier feel for one of our favorite [...]

How did I spend last weekend? How every girl dreams of spending her weekends…. in a bikini, on stage, in front of hundreds of people. Yeah right. It took a  few extra yoga classes, a tanning session, and bikini wax to get me excited for walking the runway in Body Glove’s 2010 collection. No, actually, [...]

What’s more exciting than Vogue’s bigger than the bible, much anticipated September fashion issue? How about R.J. Cutler’s documentary about the reigning queen of the fashion scene, Anna Wintour? Both magazine and movie drop this month, just in time for New York Fashion Week. Reviews so far have been positive but, since the film has [...]

     Cheap and Chic. Two words that I love  seeing together these days. So, maybe you won’t be in this season’s haute couture. Not to worry my savvy spending stylistas. I’ve gathered  a few catwalk inspired bags that are pocket and fashion friendly. They’re on sale for two days only so, don’t wait! Glitz [...]

       Where do you go when you’re an iconic 1970’s YSL haute couture gown and you want to retire in glamorous style? Cameron Silver’s vintage store and show room, Decades on Melrose Ave. Just to keep up appearances, during fashion week you would have found yourself surrounded by admirers at MOCA’s ‘Evening of [...]

   We had almost given up hope for L.A. Fashion Week. The collections were lackluster, the mood-stale, the bar-cash. That was until we snuck our Gucci clad heels into the front row at Yotam Solomon.  With the workmanship of a seasoned artist, the 21 year old designer delivered an exceptional collection of deep satins and [...]

    The future of L.A. fashion is bleak, dears. Friday night’s  GenArt/BOXeight presentation in downtown L.A. left us feeling severely blasé about the Fall 2009 catwalk. Layers of shapeless, colorless fabric draped across the models dragging down the runway. This was the common theme for collections from Grai, Society for Rational Dress, and Raquel Allegra. Which [...]

      
              After announcing the designer line-up for next week’s Fall 2009 shows just a few days ago, it seems BOXeight is finally ready to put on a show. The collaborative arts organization is partnering with GenArt to kick-off  L.A.’s version of fashion week on Friday, March 13 boasting [...]

    Sadly, Plush Junkie has not been in attendance at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week this week in New York City. We were on our way to the airport when our chauffeured town car popped a tire and caused us to miss our first class flight. As there were no other first class tickets available (and [...]
