I present Vintage Ladyee...

Several weeks ago, I mentioned working on a little project. Well, I'm finally ready to share!!! I'm adding a vintage section to Ladyee Boutique! Yay! I've always loved vintage clothing, I stayed stylish in high school by wearing and transforming my mum's old denim catsuits from the 70's (I dyed mine black), tennis skirts, platform sandals (thank God we wore the same shoe size back then)and psychedelic print tops. I love that fashion is so cyclical and the seemingly old always comes back new! I've spent the past couple of months searching for super chic vintage pieces (mostly dresses) that stay true to the feminine vibe of the lines we carry at Ladyee Boutique. Here are a few of the pieces I have so far-

Super Feminine, Super Chic, All 60s! Get her here.

She's Sassy, She's Classy (lol, cheesy cheesy, I know :p)Get her here.

I'll be adding more weekly and I'll be sure to feature them right here. Most of the dresses I will leave "as is" but I'm working on updating a few super cute ones as well. Nothing major just adding little touches here and there. Thanks much for your patience and I so appreciate all my fab customers and all you stylish ones that drop by the blog.

Stay Fab!

Designer Spotlight- Tracy Reese

I remember stumbling upon my first Tracy Reese top five years ago at Nordstrom, I feel in love instantly and have been a huge fan since then. I was drawn to the gorgeous fabric, feminine detail, appealing colours and super flattering silhouette. Tracey Reese's collections are always uber chic, super feminine and extremely versatile. We are super excited to debut Frock by Tracy Reese at Ladyee Boutique in a few weeks. Plenty Frock is Tracy Reese's secondary and ultra feminine line of fun and stylish dresses.

As expected Ms. Reese, never fails to deliver chic and ultra feminine style season after season. Below are some of my fave looks from her Spring 2010 collection-

Fashion Week and Spring Hair Trends

I'm digging the hair trends at fashion week: soft, un-serious easy to wear hair styles. I'm so lazy when it comes to my hair, I could literally live in a pony tail but thank God for the center part (oh, you didn't know that was a hairstyle...lol.) I'm pretty low maintenance when it comes to my hair but I tend to get a bit bored, so I've been experimenting lately with hair ornaments and curls. I'll have to post a photo of my hair one of these days. Below are a couple videos about fashion week and spring hair trends courtesy of the fashion spot.

Inspiration!

I honestly had not planned on putting up another post so soon but I'm so excited I just had to pass this own. So here goes- I'm typically on the computer doing a bunch of research, reading up on fashion happenings, commenting on blogs etc till the wee hours of the AM, it started out as a necessity, since it's really the only ample amount of time I have to myself (I have a toddler...lol) but it's fast becoming second nature (not sure how healthy it is...lol.)

Anyhow I was on dear Onada's photography blog, (Onada also owns a super cute shop called the white dress shop) and she shared two awesome websites!

#1- Thinksplendid.com
#2 Sageweddingpros.com.
You're probably wondering, what do these seemly wedding pro sites have to do with me (you...lol), fashion etc. Well they are chuck full of motivational posts. I'm especially loving the two posts below-

Being Yourself from Splendid Communications
This spoke volumes to me! As a relatively new business owner, I sometimes find myself wondering if I'm making the right choices or decisions. I've had to take a few steps back many a time to make sure I'm staying true to myself and my goals. After all, Being individuals and unique is what makes the world go round. :)


Myths about being an entrepreneur from Sage Wedding Pros
Yes, I had to come up with some pretty creative measures to get Ladyee Boutique up and going!
No, I'm not backed by bags of money...lol. I do have a super supportive cast though!
Yes, I'm a risk taker. I suppose that requires being somewhat courageous. My faith obviously helps a heck of a lot with this!

I love that both are such short reads but pack a powerful punch. Pass this on, I'm sure it'll be greatly appreciated. Thanks for sharing Onada!

In the mood for SHOES- Magrit!

I'm a sucker for pretty, embellished peep toe heels. I totally got my fix today with these GORGEOUS shoes from Magrit (sigh). A Spanish family owned shoe company that's been around for 75 years. They also produce shoes for YSL etc.

Here are a few that I think are pretty-

Designer Spotlight- Tiffany Saidnia

Tt designer Tiffany Saidnia, an LA native, began her fashion career catering to high profile clients of notorious celebrity stylist Jessica Pastor. After a short while, she decided to join the Garmento world herself, where she could learn the actual construction of garments and work directly with designers. Ella Moss and Splendid provided her a background in knit capabilities, garment dying, and the basic world of manufacturing. She furthered her studies of designer knits as the right hand to Pegah Anvarian. Once she had mastered knits, she moved on to Joe's Jeans, where she began focusing on fit and the intricacies of the denim world. Two years at Joe's paved the way into Duarte Jeans, where she worked with denim couturier Henry Duarte. Incorporating leather and denim elements, Saidnia brought rock star couture to the contemporary market. At the same time, she officially launched Duarte into the knit world with a line of graphic tees that were hailed by a number of high profile celebrities. Keeping her theme of couture to contemporary, she launched the denim and sportswear division of Tara Subkoff’s company, Imitation of Christ.

We're totally digging the Audrey Dress-

The Nina Skirt is the PERFECT dressy pencil skirt. It fits like a dream!

Keke Palmer looks so lovely in the grey version of the Audrey dress!

I just love Tiffany's fresh spin of wardrobe stables/classics. I can totally see a woman from the 60's and beyond rocking either of these pieces.

Stay Fab!

The end of summer's near :(

Sadly it's almost the end of my fave season of the year. :( I LOVE the summer season, something about the sun, warmth, ice pops and bright colors puts and keeps me in the best mood ever. Luckily, I have tons of stuff to look forward to this fall, so knowing that keeps me chugging along cheerfully (at least most of the time.) :)

I mentioned revealing a little project I've been working on a few weeks back...it's coming along, slowly but surely and I can't wait to share it with you all. So please bear with me. :)

In the meantime, I went a little nuts marking things down at Ladyee Boutique. Check it out, I'm sure you'll find something you like.

Have an awesome weekend dears!

Stay Fab!
