If you can believe it, these denim leggings are from Urban Outfitters and are only $39. I love how the waistband is like leggings but how they still have back pockets like jeans. And the price is so good, you can afford to buy more than one color. And there are quite a few to choose from. Take a look here.

From the FW2010 show. Love. It.

McQueen in LOVE

"Well I just think that which celebrities are wearing it, what reviews say -- none of it matters if it's all there for people to make their own minds up.

I'm 40 now, but I want this to be a company that lives way beyond me, and I believe that customers are more important to making that happen than press.

When I'm dead, hopefully this house will still be going. On a spaceship. Hopping up and down above earth."

--Lee Alexander McQueen in the current issue of LOVE magazine.

white with black

As spring is right around the corner (for some) a nice segue into the season is with a bold white statement piece on top of a black outfit. Kate rocks an amazing white blazer here with a head-to-toe black look during a morning-after meal in Paris.

This ultra white Acne cardigan works really well as a statement making outfit focal point and its oversize feeling and contrast buttons add a little something extra. It's part of their new Spring line, which if you haven't seen it, you really need to check it out. So far I think they have the best collection for Spring, I want about 20 pieces for sure including jeans and leggings but also tops, dresses, coats and cardigans. I know I already posted about it so I'll wait till later on to post more pictures (also I think they are still getting more stuff) but meanwhile check it out on their site but also at Creatures of Comfort.

formal attire

I have a friend who wants me to go to a formal event on Saturday. I am undecided mainly because I have nothing to wear.

This would be my ideal look (minus Sofia's preggers belly):
