Besides repealing the global gag rule on abortion, this is like the BEST thing Obama's done so far!

Feathery Fashions!

For some reason, I can't stop searching for -- and admiring -- feathery dresses and fashions and stuff. Observe:

Dennis Basso

This would make such an amazing wedding dress.

Chado Ralph Rucci

I want to marry THIS DRESS.

($2,214, Fendi, Net-a-porter.com)

I wanna sleep with this dress.

($450, Jean Paul Gaultier, Bergdorf Goodman)

So ridiculous, but I'd wear the shit out of it.

... AND
+ Lotsa feather earrings for under $20!
+ Zac Posen feather dress I want to just touch someday...

Are we human, are we dancer, and are we ever going to stop wearing this jacket? Because, really, it's enough already.

12th Street By Cynthia Vincent's Very Mad Men-esque Didi Pump, Now On Super Sale!

I have the serious howling fantods over Cynthia Vincent's Didi floral fabric pumps. Betty Draper (or someone Don Draper would sleep with on the side) would SO wear these. Here, look, won't you?

($117, 12th Street By Cynthia Vincent, Chickdowntown.com)

It's like Cynthia Vincent took a nap inside my mind, read my dreams, woke up and designed the PERFECT PUMP, just for ME.

($100, 12th Street By Cynthia Vincent, Blue And Cream)

Seriously, these are just $100. I need a second to get my mind around that...

... Okay. I'm back.

($108, 12th Street By Cynthia Vincent, Endless.com)

These aren't as me, but I like the Gwen Stefani/ Alexander McQueen-iness of the plaid. (BTW, did you know that Alexander McQueen is only 39? What am I DOING with my life?)

Also, these Hale Bob floral pumps are so wrong they're almost right:

($69, Hale Bob, DSW)

Temperley London Sale At Blue & Cream!

After a tastacular brunch with Beauty Blogging Junkie's Amber and Eye4Style's Dina, I stopped into one of my favorite boutiques -- Blue & Cream.

People, get there now because they're having a fantastic sale on some fantastic Temperley London pieces. By fantastic, I'm meaning 50% off, and I'm also meaning the Tempest Tunic in black. My apologies because I CANNOT find a shot of it in black, but you get the idea -- it's a beautiful knit tunic embellished with metallic threading and STUDS, and you KNOW how I feel about studs. It's phenoms:



And Blue & Cream's got both the black and the white Tempest tunic for around $500 or so. (Or get it at MyTheresa.com.) Seriously. I desperately want it to wear this to my rehearsal dinner, even though we don't even have a wedding date set yet, but we're assuming it'll be in the winter, so one could also assume the rehearsal will be in the winter too, right? Totally thinking ahead... And I will SO need a nice warm dress!

Or... I could just go back, get it, (I LOVE a great deal), and wear it to fashion week NOW and pat myself on the well-dressed back for getting another wear out of it. Or you could go buy it and I could live vicariously through you. Anyway, point is, Blue & Cream = amazing sale right now, I <3 Blue & Cream and Temperely London.

On a Final Note

As some of you may have noticed, we haven’t been blogging much lately.

We started blogging back in 2004, when we began college. We wanted a simple girly website where we can share our thoughts on fashion with other fashion lovers. We finally settled on blogspot, because we were both technically challenged and it was easy. It was really exciting at first. We religiously stalked our blog and our heart would skip a beat whenever we get a comment. It gave us a warm and fuzzy feeling each time.

We just graduated last summer and since then, we’ve been struggling to carry our blog into the ‘real world’ with us. When you’re a student, you’re surrounded by inspirations and you have all the time in the world to take it in and read up on the latest styles and celebrity trends. In the real world, you get so caught up with life that you barely have time to stop and admire your surroundings and be inspired and excited by it. Now don’t get us wrong, we still love to drool over gorgeous dresses and new bags and debate over the merits of the latest trends- just not as often anymore. Blogging started to become a chore instead of something we loved doing. That was when we knew that it was time to move on, even though it took us a few months of thinking and debating with ourselves and each other to realize it, and another few months overcoming self denial to act on it. It’s not easy to give up something we’ve been doing for the last four years, knowing that once we stop, there is no going back.

A little over 4 years ago, we had no idea what blogs were, and we certainly didn’t know fashion blogs will become such a big phenomenon. We didn’t really know where we were heading when we started I am Fashion, but it became something we loved. We considered taking I am Fashion further, developing it into something bigger as so many other fashion blogs have done. But alas, as hard as we racked our brains, we couldn’t come up with a vision of where it can go. And so, we've decided that it was time to make a graceful exit and let I am Fashion go.

We’d like to thank all the readers who have stuck with us throughout the last four years. It was your comments, emails and continued presence that have kept us going for so long. We’d also like to thank our guest blogger E, who has helped us immensely in the last few months through this difficult transition period. It’s been an unexpectedly rewarding experience, which will always have a special place in our hearts.
