Celebrities wearing Marc Jacobs

Marc Jacobs had a profile in The New Yorker 'Enchanted"

The two individuals perhaps most responsible for transforming the West Village from what it was ten years ago into what it is today are Carrie Bradshaw and Marc Jacobs. The former is a bubbly, self-involved, inordinately chic blond journalist who chronicles the lives of New York women, her own life in particular. The latter is a fashion designer who has become famous as the creator of the shoes and clothes and, most prominently, handbags worn by the women whom Carrie chronicles and the women who wish that they could be her. Carrie Bradshaw, of course, is make-believe, the protagonist of the “Sex and the City” franchise, whereas Marc Jacobs is a real person. Or he was once

Juicy Couture Ad

I chose this Juicy Couture advertisement because I love their ads. They are always different and you will always be able to tell it’s their ad. This ad is trying to tell the consumer to “Do the Don’ts” and in big letters it says ”SHOW OFF”, on the back it says “SPOIL YOURSELF”. The message behind it is go out and buy our perfume, your aloud to spoil yourself, you should spoil yourself. Then show off because with this perfume you will feel on top of the world.
This ad will make the consumer want to buy it because you can first smell the fragrance and also if you know Juicy Couture and have purchased there products before, then you know you are getting what you paid for. They have good quality products.

Marc Jacobs Handbags!

I love just about eveything Marc Jacob does and designs. In his 2010 RTW Spring collection his handbags are gorgous. He is has a twist on Chanel bags.

Marc Jacobs was born in New York City to Jewish American parents. He attended the High School of Art and Design in New York City and graduated in 1981.He lived in Teaneck, New Jersey with his mother, sister and younger brother, and attended Teaneck High School. At fifteen, Jacobs worked as a stockboy at Charivari, an avant-garde clothing boutique in New York City. From there, Jacobs entered Parsons The New School for Design in New York City. During his tenure at Parsons, Jacobs won the Perry Ellis Gold Thimble Award in 1984 and in the same year was also awarded the Chester Weinberg Gold Thimble Award and the Design Student of the Year Award.

While still at Parsons, Jacobs designed and sold his first line of hand-knit sweaters. He designed his first collection for Reuben Thomas, Inc., under the Sketchbook label. Following his studies at Parsons, Jacobs began to design at Perry Ellis after its founder had died. Jacobs became prominent on the fashion scene when he designed a "grunge" collection for Perry Ellis, leading to his dismissal in 1993. With Robert Duffy, Jacobs formed Jacobs Duffy Designs Inc., which continues to this day. In 1986, backed by Onward Kashiyama USA, Inc., Jacobs designed his first collection bearing the Marc Jacobs label. In 1987 Jacobs was the youngest designer to have ever been awarded the fashion industry's highest tribute, The Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Perry Ellis Award for New Fashion Talent.

Jacobs and Duffy joined the women's design unit of Tristan Russo in 1989 as Vice President and President, respectively. In addition, Jacobs oversaw the design of the various women's licensees. In 1992, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, once again bestowed Jacobs with a great honor: The Women's Designer of the Year Award. In 1994 he produced his first full collection of menswear.

Jacobs is a prominent fixture in the New York City celebrity scene, having become something of a celebrity himself. The audience for his fashion shows typically includes celebrities like Kim Gordon and Vincent Gallo. Most of his collections make references to the fashions of past decades from the forties to the eighties. Disputing the claim by the designer Oscar de la Renta that Jacobs is a mere copyist, the New York Times Critic Guy Trebay has written "unlike the many brand-name designers who promote the illusion that their output results from a single prodigious creativity, Mr. Jacobs makes no pretense that fashion emerges full blown from the head of one solitary genius". Explaining his clothes, Jacobs has said "what I prefer is that even if someone feels hedonistic, they don’t look it. Curiosity about sex is much more interesting to me than domination. ... My clothes are not hot. Never. Never.".

In May 2009, Jacobs hosted the 'Model and Muse' themed Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala in New York with supermodel Kate Moss.

Marc Jacob and Oscar de la Renta, For FUR.

As part of PETA’s “Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” Campaign, a group of plucky volunteers stood on the corner of Melrose Place in Los Angeles on Thursday in only a PETA banner to protest the opening of the Oscar de la Renta store. The store had originally been planed to open Thursday, but is still under construction. PETA was targeting Oscar de la Renta because they sell fur, said protestor Melissa Sehgal, who added the demonstration was also directed at Marc Jacobs which has three stores on the street for using fur. Sehgal said PETA hopes the two companies will sign a written agreement promising to stop selling fur.

Marc Jaocbs on one of my favorite designers! For my Brand Marketing class at fashion school we need to follow a brand, do i chose to follow Marc. I have some of his designers from his 2010 Spring /Summer collection.

Moving, Its a love hate relationship!

So I started moving yesterday, and let me tell you, I HATE MOVING! I've been moving every year for the last 6 years. This time, I am staying put! I dont want to move until I am getting married or gonna by a house.
But I do have to say, I LOOOOVE my new place. Its very art deco! The walls are painted different colors. The kitchen is teal blue, the downstairs bathroom is purple, the upstaris bathroom is royal blue and the staris is orange! I love it.

Dogs will eat anything, but why clothes or shoes!

So I woke up this morning to the sounds of my dogs playing with something, I look out my window and see that they have my LEATHER JACKET in theirs mouths and are playing tug-o-war with it........ REALLY?!?!?!?!?What is it about our fashion items that dogs love to eat so much. Like shoes, good shoes, expensive shoes. (If you scroll down there's a picture of the angels) Its not like they will take the shoes and hide them, they take them and leave clear out in the open and decide to put teeth marks along the heel or the front where your toes show.

I love my pups, but come on, leather jacket!

Girls Night Out!

I went out with my girls on Saturday night in Costa Mesa. We ended up going to Sutra because LMFAO was playing, and one of my friends is a total groupie of theirs! So we are parking and just watching the girls and what they are wearing is just making my dumbfounded. Do they not have mirrors or FRIENDS? I am talking about short, short, short booty shorts, and not the body to wear them. This one girl had such a short dress on that a guy was dancing with her and her underwear was showing, I politely said, Hey girl you might want to pull your dress down your underwear is showing. She said," No, I want it like that"...... WHAT????? Some girls have absolutely no shame. I like go to out and see what people are wearing. Girls are wearing lots of dresses and lots of shorts and jumpers. At least there still are classy women in Orange County.

Oh Betsey!

I have been a fan of Betsey Johnson for years now. I have dresses. shoes, lingerie, purses, OMG her purses. I loved her stuff from the minute I laid eyes in it. Except for now. Her stuff has taken a turn for the worse. I know that Betsey is a flashing person anyways, but her purses right now are hideous. I went into a Nordstroms about a month ago in Topanga Plaza and I asked where all of Betsey Johnson's purses were, the lady said that they didn't have anything at the moment because it was too ugly. The sales associate straight up said that. So come on Betsey bring it back, I miss buying your stuff.

I love these shoes

I don't know what it is about a pair of shoes that can change you life, think of Cinderella and her glass slipper. All I know is that when I put on these Steve Madden heels I feel like the night can take me anywhere.

Killing animals for fashion

Being in fashion school, over the past year I have done more projects and research  on killing animals for their fur for our fashion. I've come to know horrible details of how they do it, I wont go into details because is to sad and depressing. All I know is that it is a huge issue and problem, there are so many designers that have real fox, squirrel, or lynx fur in there designs. ITS DISGUSTING!  ITS SAD! Do these designers really know how bad these animals get treated just so they can make a money on a coat?
