"The City" fashion

Since the show is shot in the Big Apple so Fashion plays a big part in it. Both main girls Whitney Port and Olivia Palermo have different styles that portrait them as NY girls.

I myself prefer Olivia's style. She always pulls everything together so well . Her knowledge about accessories is incredible since accessories can make or break an outfit . Shes is a New York socialite, a 'social' like she calls herself. She's like a real Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl who lives the life every girl dreams of. Her hair and make-up are perfection, her clothes to die for and she's always impeccable accessorized...

Here are her daily wears, Black and White are prob her favorite colors. She knows how to style them with the perfect bags to make her stand out

 

She also looks incredible in neon or neutral colors . She never forget to accessorize her look with her shoes, necklace or purses

Whitney Port, on the other hand, is a down-to-earth girl so her style is more simple & definitely got an eye for design. She made her first debut at the New York fashion week featuring her Whitney Eve line. Her line is sophisticated, girly and chic. She said her collection features everything she would wear so it showcases her style quite literally

 Her style consists of different blazers & short dresses. They shows off her best asset well - her legs. But shes not always perfect or well put-together like Olivia, sometimes her style is very questionable. She does make weird choices for her daily wears which can be very boring / uninspired

SELF-INFLATION AND HIGH FASHION

I , myself, support fashion and whichever comes with it. I'm willing to pay big bucks to get something I really want when I have my eyes set on it. Sometimes the price is too ridiculous but I still find myself getting it. Today, I came by this article from tfs.com. I cant help but post it up for everyone to read. Its so true that fashion can be an "investment", but that`s only from a Shopaholic view :) Enjoy reading....

When handbags cost as much as a car...

There are times when there is little comfort to be gained from ‘being right’. For years now I’ve held the admittedly old, curmudgeonly view that the cost of shoes, clothes, and assorted other fashion paraphernalia was much more expensive than “when I was a girl”. Though I’d love to have been proved wrong on this one I recently read that the price of a Gucci handbag went up 600% in the period from 1999 to 2009, and the price of a Chanel bag leapt from $900 to $2,395.

As we head into a new decade, this rather disturbing example of what I’ll refer to as “self-inflation” doesn’t bode too well. It’s impossible to avoid mentally fast forwarding to a future when the latest handbag costs as much as a car, and students leaving college no longer dream of being able to afford the down payment on a condo, but instead focus on making the installment payments needed to add an interview suit to their wardrobe.

Suddenly the argument that fashion can be an ‘investment piece’ starts to make sense; you may have some stocks and shares in your retirement portfolio, but should you have a Birkin bag from Hermès as well?
