VPL Fall 2010 #NYFW

Filed under: Uncategorized — ladolcevitainfo @ 11:07 pm
Valentines day was a day to show love for one another. Well contrary to tradition, I showed my love for fashion instead. VPL definitely delivered on this one. No one can make me feel as good in soft silhouettes with a punk rock edge to it.  From the crazy knitted bodysuit, to the sick jewelry pieces and of course the unforgettable dresses, it didn’t miss a single note. To start off, the jewelry was one thing that definitely caught my eye. Wooden pieces wrapped with yarns of different colors, shaped in the most abstract designs that you could not live without. I can’t forget the roped necklaces that doubled as belts, essential to every look that came down the runway. VPL, continued with its known designs for its structures and shapes. The paneling of dresses with the colors of tan, brown, and  mauve filtered through out the body. The looks were definitely unforgettable. Something that will definitely be saved in my books of looks to check out in the magazines.

Important! Must Read::: Ways to Help Haiti!!!

Filed under: Uncategorized — ladolcevitainfo @ 7:56 pm

Sometimes in life, things happen that we just don’t understand. As we are going through crises, we often wonder why, how, or what we could have done to prevent it. The disastrous earthquake that occurred yesterday evening in Haiti has claimed thousands of lives. Many are left wondering here in the United States if their family members were lucky enough to survive. This is when faith kicks in. We must have faith and understanding. We may not know why this disaster has affected so many people and claimed so many lives, but we do know with faith we can gain the strength that we need to make it through. I ask all of you to reach into your hearts, to donate your time or funds to help the victims of this tragedy. 


I’m a native of Brooklyn, NY and I live close to the Flatbush section, which is known as the largest Haitian diaspora of the United States. I’ve see the hurt, the pain and confusion, first hand. Please take a stand and lead others to donate their time, money and efforts.


You can start by texting YELE to 501501 to donate $5 to Haiti or “HAITI” to 90999 to donate, www.redcross.org, and Unicefusa.org. 


Reach into your closets for old clothes, and your pantries for can goods. Speak to community leaders to find out the best way to organize for relief. 

Most importantly, please pray for those who are hurting. 


Thank You,

Ungaro Dropped, Luella Stopped, ANTM Revamped +VS Shuffled = LDV Fashion Scoop

Filed under: Uncategorized — ladolcevitainfo @ 3:15 pm
I realize the turn around in fashion news is just extremely too fast at times, and the last thing I ever want to do is leave my darling readers out of the loop. Whenever the heap gets to be too much, I plan too sum it all up in one scoop! Here we go.
  • After it’s disastrous Spring 2010 collection, Emanuel Ungaro has been dropped from Neiman Marcus and Net-a-Porter like a bad habit! The high-end department store and online retailor are crucial outlets which determine the success of any established fashion house. This is the opposite of good news. Would the insertion of “Creative Director”, Lindsay Lohan have anything to do with it? Just this week, Emanuel Ungaro, 76, who left his eponymous fashion house years ago expressed his frustration with Lindsay. “I’m furious but there isn’t a thing I can do. I have absolutely no link with that house.”  
  • And the economic storm keeps rising, blasting a gusty blow so strong that it knocked Luella Bartley out of business! With clients like Alexa Chung and Katy Perry, no one saw this coming. Alexa started her own grass roots campaign to help the doomed line by blasting #saveluella messages through her twitter account. Meanwhile, to clear stock, the brand is slashing prices via their website, so get it before it’s gone.
  •  The Daily News says prime-time talk show queen, Tyra Banks isn’t taking her ANTM ratings slumps lying down. She’s taking action to avoid further drops by enlisting Kimora Lee Simmons and Andre Leon Talley as judges. I can’t wait for that panel. Bring back wacky Janice and I’m sold!
  • With Gisele and Adriana preggers, Karolina and Heidi recently dropping their loads, the annual Victoria Secret Fashion Show has seen better days. But, no need to panic! The show will take place as usual on November 19th and air on December 1st, but with a crop of new angels added to the lineup, including Chanel Iman and Rosie Huntington Whiteley.

Hey Peoples!!

Filed under: Uncategorized — ladolcevitainfo @ 2:53 pm

I’m sorry for the lack of posting lately, but I have been busy preparing to visit my favorite place in the world, North Carolina! It’s where I went to college and this is our Homecoming Weekend! Honestly, it’s been hard for me to focus on writing because I’ve been in party mode mentally all week! I’ll be back next week to deliver some more haute dish! If you can, please take this time to visit some of my older post and if you feel up to it, leave a comment. I love comments! lol… But seriously your opinion and input makes me better and any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I am pulling out of the Big Apple tonight and getting on the road to NC! Everyone enjoy your weekend, and pray for my safe travels.

Get Your Leopard Print for Fall

Filed under: Uncategorized — ladolcevitainfo @ 4:22 pm

Saw this photo of Harrod’s Fashion Director Marigay McKee in an oh- so chic, YSL leopard print sheath dress. I love the sleeves and the how the lightness of the material appears to just float off her body. Get your leopard fix for fall. But it has to be the right leopard. Exact. Not to dark, or to light, or in any other hue.. This leopard print makes her look important, like she’s on a way to do a job only she can handle. Just love it!

Wow! It seems as if it was just yesterday SATC Addicts found themselves ogling over that big flower bow, and now they have already begun shooting the sequel. SJP is her usual fabulous self in these candid shots released today. I am dying over her Louboutins.. The glittery gold, set off by the signature red bottom is almost magical. Can’t wait to see what the other girls are wearing.
