Shopcade: Your Personal Shopping App

Quote of the Day: "Some people think luxury is the opposite of poverty. It is not. It is the opposite of vulgarity."                                                      — Coco Chanel

Tired of millions of tabs at the top of your screen as you scout for the latest trends and sales? Tired of having to bookmark almost every online store so you won't forget the outfit. If only there was a site that had all that in one place.

Shopcade is a trendy, personal shopping app that allows you to be able to see the newest of trends all on one screen. The unique thing about this website is that it's not only directed towards one style or range, it's geared towards everyone. Shopcade ranges from stylish jewelry to home and leisure items. Think of it as your all-in-one personal style organizer. You are able to share and create lists while being informed on the hottest exclusive sales for your beloved items. If your not already a member I'd think you were a sadist.

Now enough about my insane fan-girling over this fashion friendly site. What I really want to talk about is this Gold Arrow Necklace Set by Love Thy Accessories, that comes with both earrings and necklace.

Street Steeze

Quote of the Day

 "Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way you live."                                                                                            — Gianni Versace

Song of the Day: Magic-Coldplay

Inspiration. One of the most important concepts in fashion. We design to inspire and we style to inspire. Without inspiration we wouldn't have the creativity to power the universe. Okay cut this is getting way too Ghandi for me. But my message is still the same fashion originated from the streets. Designers like Karl Legerfield and Betsy Johnson would not be where they are today without being inspired by the people around them. This is the beginning of my Street Steeze segment.

My Infinite Playlist

Quote of the Day: "Fashions fade, style is eternal."

                                                               — Yves Saint-Laurent

Song of The Day : Mount Kimbie- Made to Stray 

If you haven't already heard I'm a fan of music. No that's incorrect I'm a junkie maybe even an addict. I can sincerely say I may love music more than I love fashion...okay that may be pushing it. Music is with me from the morning to the night and never really gets a break in between. I grew up with music and I'll probably die with headphones in my ear. I've taken it upon myself to graze you with my awesome musical taste. I personally feel that nobodies life is complete without sampling Jessica's Infinite Playlist-which is moi! So join me...if you dare.

I know, you may be expecting me to drone on about the ultimate hipster bands which ranges from The Beatles to The Rolling Stones. Pardon my language but I think that they're all crap. Nothing about The Beatles  or The Rolling Stones is remotely intriguing and you can quote me on it. Many of you may be outraged but it's the truth. I personally feel that those bands are what we like to call The Bandwagoners. 

The Bandwagoners- those bands that you like not because you knew them from day one, or because you just like they're music no, it's because society thinks there cool and all your friends feel there cool so you take it upon yourself to forcibly like them and listen to them. Some of them include: The Ramones, Lorde, Foster The People, The Neighborhood, Calvin Harris, Kendrick Lamar, 2 Chainz, A$AP Rocky etc.

New York Fashion Week

Qoute of the Day: "I think there is beauty in everything. What ‘normal’ people would perceive as ugly, I can usually see something of beauty in it."

                                                                                  — Alexander McQueen

Song of the Day: RadioHead- Lotus Flower (Jaques Greene Remix)

There comes a time in one's life where everything social media needs to be shut off. A time where celebrities get front row seats to the hottest of shows. A time where over-credited socialites like Kendall Jenner are rubbing shoulders with fashion royalty like Anne Wintour. This time is Fashion Week.

Sorry that I haven't updated in a while but I couldn't bare to see all the Instagram photos or stupid tweets of how awesome people with equally as awesome lives were living it up this past week while I stayed at home with a smashed iPhone screen and an abundant amount of English homework. I'll tell you this before I start, every time fashion weeks comes around I tend to coincidentally disappear off the face off the earth and drown my sorrows in cheap Chapman's ice cream. So next time I go Caspar you'll know why.

There are four major fashion weeks and for some reason Toronto thinks their part of that fantastic four which is laughable to say the least. NYC, Milan, London and Paris come together twice a year to tell us what's in and what's out. They show us the newest trends of the season so we don't commit fashion suicide when frolicking the streets of our hometown, and for that we are extremely grateful. With 256 shows in about the time span of a month it's no wonder Fashion Week is one of the most popular events in the world. But sadly it is near impossible to see all these shows at once with all the intertwining schedules. It's a dog eat dog world, what can I say? 

Now, I'm sure there were many awesome and wonderful collections strutting down the Mercedes Benz catwalk but naming all of them would be a bore. So I'm going to stick with all the highlights of last week.
