Fashion Goddess

THURSDAY: DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT
Recommendation: Addie, TREND Staff StylistKate Moss has been dubbed best dressed woman of the year by American Vogue. Not only is she the best dressed, but she also designs incredible outfits. We recently received the bittersweet news that Moss's last collection was launched on the 2nd of this month. The collection features embroidered tops, flowery prints, hot pants and brilliantly sequenced jackets.

Get them while you can because this leading lady will go down in the fashion history books.

Butter Caramels

Good Eats Wednesday

These mouthwatering butter caramels from Fusion Sweets on Etsy look so tempting, don't they?



Can't decide on a flavor?
Choose up to 16 of their unique flavors up to 1 lb. for $18, or choose 8 flavors for $9.99.

These unique flavors caught my eye: French Salt, Belgian Dark Chocolate, Pumpkin Pie, Star Anise, Saffron, Cardamom, & Some Like Hot Thai Haberno!


P.S. Have you tried the Caramel Brulee Latte at Starbucks?
I had my first one this morning, yum!

C'est Magnifique

UCSD's Best Dressed
Discovered by: Bridgett, TREND Staff Writer

Name
: Maggie
Graduate Student
Orginally from: San Fransisco
Major: Literature
Spotted Near : Geisel Library

Outfit:
Brilliant Green Blouse:
Anthropologie
Nostalgic Necklace: Gift from Mother
Chic Glasses: DKNY
Simply black skirt: Thrift Store
Tights: "Yoga tights from my closet!"
Combat Boots: Nordstrom

Q: Who or what is your fashion influence?
A: "Hmmm...definitely styles shown in French movies from the 60's! "

Although Maggie's green blouse is bright, it is not showy; it is both simple and modern. The French word "haute couture" means "trend-setting high fashion". Maggie is definitely a trend setter. People always say things sound cooler when the French say it, but in Maggie's case, it's her French Style that's c'est magnifique.

Favorite Color Personality Test

What is Your Favorite Color?




Mine is yellow, and it couldn't be more spot on...

Yellow: The color of happiness, wisdom and imagination, Yellow is chosen by the mentally adventurous, searching for novelty and self-fulfillment. Yellow usually goes with a sunny and shrewd personality, with a good business head and a strong sense of humor. It is the color of intellectuality and all things to do with the mind. Yellow folks are usually clear and precise thinkers who have a good opinion of their own mental capacities and who have lofty ideals. They may at times tend to shun responsibility, preferring freedom of thought and action.

However, I like blue green, white, and lavendar too. :)

"Thinking of You" - Lenny Kravitz



Last year, on 16th November, my family bid farewell to my mother. Today, I am missing her, thinking of her. She is gone, but I know she is watching over us.
