A Balenciaga Lunch Box

In case there was any question about it, this piece is more fashion than functional. It was the last post on the [Hypebeast] website, but it stopped me in my tracks. As a lunch box, I’m much too old to be owning a product like this, but from a fashion perspective, it is exactly what I want. A piece like this won’t come cheap though. Balenciaga is selling this non-lunch box for $1,980 USD, but whether you’re carrying it to fake a lunch box or not, you will definitely catch eyes. To make this even more of a versatile piece, you also have the option of attaching the leather strap to it in case you want to opt for having it over the shoulder or wearing it across your body.

Snaps for a Snapshot

Who: Michelle Obama

Wearing: Balenciaga thigh-high stiletto-heel boots

Where: Barclays Center in Brooklyn

If you’ve been living under a rock this week, then you may have missed Michelle Obama’s standout look that had jaws dropping everywhere. Our former First Lady donned a pair of Balenciaga boots that were so sparkly and fabulous that only she could pull off. With her recent memoir “Becoming,” just being released, Michelle Obama has been on tour across the country selling out stadiums left and right. A number of celebrity guests have played moderator including Reese Witherspoon, Oprah, and Sarah Jessica Parker (as seen above.)

It’s not the $3,900 price tags that has us loving this look so much though. It’s the fact that while Michelle Obama was in the public eye during President Obama’s run, she was constantly under scrutiny for what she wore. Now that she’s out, we love that she’s wearing what she wants on her own terms.

2017 Met Gala Red Carpet

I wanted so badly to get home early Monday evening so that I could have this post ready in time for Tuesday morning as a recap, but of course, we stayed at work a little bit later that night. The good thing about writing this post now though is that I feel like I’m not under a time crunch and I can really take my time with it.

Bee Shaffer is not exactly “in” the fashion world, but her mother is Anna Wintour and every year she continues to stun. This was one of my favorite looks from the evening. Here she is wearing Alexander McQueen with her fiance Francesco Carrozzini. #powercouple

2015 Met Gala

Anna Wintour in Chanel – she hosted the whole thang so she had to be first. 

It killed me that I couldn’t post every look and have this ready to go for you all this morning! I was so excited to see some of the looks from the Met Gala yesterday evening and then a part of me knew that I would hate some looks as well. With the theme being, “China: Through the Looking Glass,” I was concerned that there would be jabs poked at stereotypes and Asian trends that would make me cringe. Of course there were, but like all things, we have to move on and not dwell on them. In the interest of saving time (and space!) I am choosing not to include looks that I felt were in poor taste.

2015 SAG Awards

Emma Stone in Dior Haute Couture

Since I was in the midst of traveling today, I missed the entire red carpet. However, in looking at all of the highlights, I wasn’t disappointed by the looks. We’re kicking things off with Emma Stone today and it looks like she’s falling some sort of a pattern this award show season.

2014 Met Gala

I can’t believe it’s time already for the most fashionable night of the year! It’s crazy to think that a year has already gone by. I feel like I was making the 2013 post just last month. This year’s theme is White Tie and Decorations.

Of course we’re kicking things off with Queen Bey and Jay.
