DUI-Angel Laws

Source



Hi, My name is Leslie and I am addicted to blogging. (this is where the audience says in unison "Hiiiii Leslie") I lost my bloginity to Concrete Loop about 3 years ago. I'm not sure exactly what led me to this site but I thought I found something no one else knew about and wanted to keep it to myself. Now at 26 Angel Laws, the creator and editor of the award winning blog continues to strive to be one of the hautest  celebrity gossip site that maintains "Quality not Quantity".
 I'm also intrigued by her eccentric style, which is often used with adding bold statement accessories; this includes berets, ethnic inspired rings and necklaces. She took some time out of her busy schedule and answered a few questions related to beauty and fashion.





What inspires your style?
I get inspired by my mood, colors, music, prints. I also get inspired when I travel, checking out different cultures and people can open your eyes a lot.

Which celebrity closet would you like to raid?
Hmmm. That's a hard one because my style is all over the place. I like menswear items, african prints, leather, boots, etc. But I will say, if Edith Bouvier Beale aka Little Eddie were still alive I would have loved to raid her scarf collection. I would also like to raid Erykah Badu's jewelry collection, she owns some dope pieces. But I'm not sure of anyone else.





Name 3 beauty essentials you can't live without?

Carol's Daughter Tui Jojoba and Shea Butter Sheen
Kiehl's Creme de Corps body creme
MAC's "Midnight Media" black lipstick





Does being an entertainment blogger influence your style?If so, how?
Probably but not consciously. I've been blogging since I was 12-13 years old, so half of my life I've spent on the computer. I think my style is more reflective of the things I stated above.

AmareSinh F/W 2011 LookBook





 This collection gives me an edge on Zara's chic approach of versatility. I'm in love with their red flap front trousers (which also comes in grey) and the black and gold button up shirt with a sweet detail of a bowtie. Click here if you missed the video I post on my PFW Roundup of  AmareSinh Fall/Winter 2011 runway and here to view more of their  Lookbook.

Clutch, Clutch here

An oversized handbag clutched right under your arm is the perfect accessory in any bright color. I found one at the Red, White & Blue thrift store in Miami. You can also purchase one at Zara and American Apparel that are frugal savvy. I'm not sure if all the bright colors are sold out at American Apparel but there aren't any bold colors online so contact your local store to see what colors they have left.

Haute Mail:

Dear Haute,

I consider myself as Ms.Blah, can you send me some suggestions to add color to my wardrobe. Any help would be appreciated.

Whew! Zara March 2011 Lookbook came just in a nick of time.
If you consider yourself a  Plain Jane and want to add a pop of color to your Spring wardrobe then you're just in luck. This season is the perfect time to start.  
For a modest fashionista, incorporate bright bold accessories like an oversized clutch or a pair of color block platforms. If you're the type that swears to only wear black and nothing but black, put on a colored blazer with black piping or lapels. The black accents will tone it down so it's not too much of a drastic change.


Everybody talks about being in red bottoms, but what about green, blue, or  pink bottoms?



While you're cleaning out your closet to make room for fresh spring colors make sure to keep your favorite essential pieces, this way you won't go broke trying to keep up with the Joneses trends.

Swing over to Zara for more looks.

Are you In or Out?

From halter catsuits to wide-legged pants, Studio 57 will be in full effect as one of Spring's key trend silhouette. So when I saw the flat shoe with added height (aka the Flatform) on runways, for designers like Derek Lam and Prada as the next "It" shoe I asked myself how far would this trend go?

But once I saw how great it looks paired with a breezy maxi I thought maybe I will give this trend a chance and go to the nearest Nordstorm and try on a pair.
