Ticket to Metropark

Queen Bee — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 04:29:13 +0000

Metropark is an awesome store that mixes fashion, music, and art. It’s all got a girly rocker chic vibe, which is just our style!

I wish they had more stores, but I’ve never seen one outside of California and Vegas. Luckily they have a great website to shop.

Betsey Johnson Fashion Show

Queen Bee — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 06:09:03 +0000

Yesterday, I was front and center at the Betsey Johnson fashion show in DC! She is my all time favorite designer, and this collection was fun and fabulous. Along with her usual ruffles and bows, Betsey decided to punk it up with skulls and sequins this time around.

This funky tulle skirt was my favorite! It has an old-timey goth feel to it and looks fun to wear.

This dress was interesting, but I’d be afraid of stupid boys trying to unzip it.

I thought this dress was a little boring (gasp!). It’s nice and all, but Betsey has higher expectations to meet and ‘typical’ just doesn’t cut it.

Like it, love it, or hate it?

Mani Musts

Queen Bee — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 12:37:39 +0000

I’m in love with the manicure trends this fall. Too bad I have a nail biting problem, so I can’t try any of these.

From instyle.com

And it’s supposed to be pretty simple. InStyle has some straight forward instructions.

From instyle.com

STEP 1 Lacquer nails with two coats of gunmetal (at left: CND Enamel in Hyde in the Dark). Allow at least five minutes for the polish to dry.

STEP 2 Sweep nail adhesive (at left: Kami Nail Foil adhesive) over the polish. It will change from white to clear matte when dry.

STEP 3 Place a strip of gold foil—shiny side facing down—(at left: Kami Metallic gold and silver foil) over your nail, tap three to four times with your fingertip to deposit the pigment, then peel off. Repeat with the silver foil.

This mod mani is cute too.

I’m not a fan of this one though. Do you like it?

Avril’s Abbey Dawn

Queen Bee — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 10:31:17 +0000

I vaguely remember when Avril Lavigne’s clothing line Abbey Dawn launched at Kohls, but I never realized that some of it was actually pretty cute. And since it’s from Kohl’s, the prices are amazing.

From kohls.com

The whole line is punk rock glam, which I love. Although, some of the clothes and jewelry are a little cliche. What do you think?

What do you think of Avril’s clothing line: cliche or cute?
