Fashion for a Rainy Day

OK fashionistas, You can still look HAUTE on a rainy day. Designers are launching FAB rainy day lines for the Diva in us all. Who wants to pack a scary umbrella and horribly chunky shoes just because we are getting some much needed rain? Not me, nor does my day stop because of the rain! True fashionistas understand the power of being prepared for anything!!!  You can find great looks from Burberry, Eddie Bauer, Beso, Trina Turk and many more. If you have a budget or you are somewhat forgetful you may want to try TJ Maxx-  http://www.tjmaxx.com/ or Target -http://www.target.com/ Check out these pics of some great pieces that were on-line!!!

Love this style!!


Every True Fashionista should have at least one trench coat in her closet!!

SAFDI has launched an informational site!!!

As I mention before San Antonio is in the process of getting its first fashion incubator!!! What fun! You can now check out an informational site at www.safdi.org to get more info. Be prepared for all of the greatness that will be debuting there!!! As we get ready to head into Fall lets make sure we are ready to welcome our newest fashion baby to the party!!! I will keep you all posted as info becomes available, adn I can not wait to meet the upcoming talent!!!

Hot Summer men's fashion!!!

Summer is here and what about the men??? They need something great to wear as well...Right!! Well designers have heard the cry and they are coming out with great pieces!! Linen and cotton are still the leaders of the pack. Men's clothing has come along way, the pieces are comfy but stylish as you can see in the picture above. Nude colors are still big and will remain in demand. Check out Macy's or JCP for great affordable buys for that great guy in your life. SO the next time you are out getting you something nice pick him up something as well!!!

Summer 2012 Trend "Tribal"


Ladies it looks like we are taking it back to the Motherland....I mean that in a great way!! Tribal as it is being called is huge for the Summer! South African designers are finally making themselves known over seas and other luxury designers are starting to take note. Burberry among others has came out with a HAUTE Summer line that has the beautiful motherland tribal print all over it. I am not just talking bags but dresses, shoes, jackets and every accessory known to man!! I hope you are able to get your hands on some of these items because they are going fast. Personally, I have had tribal items in my collection for a hot minute! Also remember that you do not have to spend alot to get alot, I found a FAB matching necklace and ear ring set at Charming Charlies!! Love it!! See ya on the Run way!!
The Hauteness that is Burberry!!! Yes please..........................................................

FInally it's here!!! SAFDI

Well folks it has been a long time in the works and I am happy to say that finally the first fashion incubator in San Antonio will be opening up!! Hopefully in August, this incubator will be a one stop shop for creatives to do:

Model calls
seminars/ training
sewing and pattern making
networking
conferences
market days and showrooms.....

and the list goes on!! We would not have made it this far with out you all and I just wanted to say Thanks!!! There is still work to do and dresses to sew, but we now have our foot in the door!! Remember these are our future leaders and small business owners that will continue to keep San Antonio growing and moving forward! Check out our YouTube feed and show your support to this great non-profit!
