Christian Siriano at Bluefly!

Posted on 28 July 2008 by Wendy O

Christian Siriano exclusively at Bluefly!

You know him, we love him…the quirky, talented and oh-so-fierce winner of last seasons’ “Project Runway,” the one and only Christian Siriano’s line is now available exclusively at Bluefly. And yes, it’s as fabulous as you would expect. Pricier than Target, but not so expensive that you’ll have to blow the rent, these haute pieces are retro-futuristic in all the right ways.

Gold Silk “Red Carpet” Dress, $325.00

LOVE this dress…even though there are no red carpets in my immediate future, this dress would be perfect for holiday parties. Snap one up now and pair it with tights and some fierce boots from fall through winter.

Cotton “Posh” Puff-Sleeve Blouse, $590.00

Although this piece was obviously inspired by a certain Spice Girl, I love this top because it reminds me of Maddona meets Blade Runner. Sophisticated, cool and edgy all at the same time, this can be worn with jeans, slacks or a skirt and will create a different effect every time.

Black Cotton Sateen “Motocross” Skinny Pants, $ 280.00

To be honest, I don’t love these. For me, the pockets look a little poufy, and I’m a curvy gal, so I have to steer clear of pouf. However, my slim sista’s shouldn’t be derailed…these are the perfect compliment to Christian’s puff-sleeved top and will create one heck of a fierce look.

So there you have it…if you can’t get enough of this budding designer, then check out what Christian had to say about his new collection HERE. Stay sassy!

Posted on 15 July 2008 by Jacqueline H

If you are preparing your special day for summer, then we have got some tips for you in the wedding gown department. This is probably one of the most important days of your life.

CYMBELINE of Paris

Cymbeline was founded over 30 years ago by three highly creative sisters-Evelyne, Chantal and Monique who decided to revolutionize the bridal industry.

While ultra feminine and luxurious, Cymbeline dresses also flirt with modernity through avant-garde cuts and elaborate use of the finest fabrics. Their design studio is like a research laboratory, with thousands of swatches of the best fabrics in France and throughout the world, including Calais lace, Thai silk, organza jacquards, embroideries and taffetas.
