Envision Artopia Spring 2012

Amanda — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 16:14:13 +0000

I’m proud to say that I’ve been involved in the bi-annual fashion show, Envison Artopia, since they first debuted in 2007! Allison and Jessica, owners of Ignite Models and producers of the show, have grown the event into one of the top rated fashion events of the year and include 6 boutiques and over 15 local fashion and accessory designers. This is a group of well organized professionals and with almost 30 sponsors, it’s sure to be around for many seasons to come.

Only a few days away, this seasons Envision Artopia is showing boutiques and designers Spring/Summer 2012 collections. I will be showing a 50′s meets 70′s vibe on the runway with a few new pieces added to the collection. Don’t miss out! All of my pieces will be available for purchase after the show so make sure you call dibs on your favorite look before it’s gone. See you there :)

Festival 2012

Amanda — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 18:13:03 +0000

With Coachella just a few days away, festival season is upon us. Taking inspiration from tribal neon, 70′s boho, 50′s pin-up, and pastel watercolors, festivals are the best place to show off all of the fun trends happening for the Spring/Summer season. Experimentation is always fun at these events and bright colors are key at outdoor concerts. Great places to shop include nastygal.com for cheap and vibrant dresses and separates, net-a-porter.com for key pieces that you will wear all season long, and shopbop.com and revolveclothing.com for fast shipping and on-trend apparel. Have fun experimenting and don’t be afraid to try something new!

I’ve been waiting for this Prada Spring 2011 look #29 to show up in an editorial somewhere. About time, Vogue, it was one of my favorite looks from the collection.

My ultimate favorite what-i-wear-every-day brand, T by Alexander Wang. Comfortable, wearable….cool girls rule. I own 2 of the striped classic long sleeve tee from the Fall 2010 collection, black and nude, which I wear at least once a week. I must own everything from his Spring 2011 collection. Here’s the promo video starring model-on-the-rise Ashley Smith and Diplo, the music producer behind Beyoncé’s upcoming album:
