April girl


This Gal is one of a kind. Not only is she adorable she is funny as hell. She's got class and style. May I introduce my April Girl


Name: Stacy Pelerossi

Interests: Anything and everything fashion related designing, sewing, and illustrating. I also love french fries.

How long living in Nashville: 17 years, I am a Yankee who loves the south.

Fave Nashville Spot: The 5 Spot, only because it's alarmingly easy to make 15 new friends in a matter of 5 minutes. And if you sing in the bathroom stall the strange girl in the next stall will start singing with you.

Favorite Nashvillian: Well Dolly of course, I just really want to hug her so that I can cop a feel of those knockers.

Parlour's Pass Ups.







I adored this eerie Nouveau print dress, but the cut was horrendous.


The 60s floral print dress would have been perfection if it didn't have a white polyester top half...YUCK.



Overall, Parlour's pass ups were not nearly as devastating as last weeks. although I was super bummed about this beaded 60s gown, the beading was immaculate but it had the most bodacious stain on it :(

Parlour's Pass Ups.





last weeks pass ups were sad for me.
the yellow lace number was cut in the most tragic way, but the fabric was yummy!!
the sweet flying birds getup was a granny robe...boo, why waste such a fabulous print on such a frumpy cut?
and lastly the dreaded polyester with a killer print.

the madness.







this is all I got of the Mizrahi backstage madness before my iphone died.

A room full of gorgeous gals, and the clothes were to die for!
Hand beaded jackets, dresses, even a pair of beaded shorts!
amazing brocades and lame' Couture heaven.
Suprisingly there was only one model meltdown, crying because her heel was getting caught in her gown...what a tradgedy!

FYI Mizrahi was backstage for all of 2 minutes before he retreated into his dressing room until curtain call.

Parlour's Pass Ups.




I am going to start a new section on the items that I "Pass Up" on my buying trips.
I love to buy and it makes me sad to leave certain things behind, so I am going to deal with the remorse by documenting and posting my discards.

Most of the reason I leave anything behind is due to
1. bad fiber content
2.irrepairable damage or stains
3. Wrong Cut ETC


Issue #1 and are the reason I left these behind. I just love the prints though.

My Cherie Amour.






I finally saw the Runaways last night! The acting, the clothes, everything was done so well!
It made me even more obsessed with Cherie Currie than I was before maybe because she is a twin too!!

p.s. If you haven't seen the movie Foxes with Cherie Currie, get it now!!
