Flipping My Hair in Tribute to Farrah "Flawless" Fawcett

Photobucket


Hello family,

I have finally resurfaced..this past week has taken me on a roller coaster ride through hell and back. Thursday June 25th, 2009 will stick out in my mind forever. Life hit us with a two-piece...Farrah and Michael.

I can't bring myself to discuss much else besides this, and even though its not purse related its my website and I'm having a moment!

There will be a blog dedicated to Michael, but for now, my focus is Farrah....

I would say close to 20 years ago when I spent my summers at home with my grandmother, I became and avid watcher of Charlie's Angels. Instantly my favorite Angel was Farrah Fawcett. She stood out because she was the only blonde and because the camera was so fond of her.

Every teenage girl posing with her friends always instinctively did the Charlie's Angel pose.

The Burning Bed became a picture of empowerment for women in situations similiar. I'm sure it made some men straighten up and fly right as well!

Her poster still remains one of the most famous and suprisingly rather UNREVEALING posters of a woman in a bathing suit.

Have we discussed hair? Farrah's infamous hairstyle has transcended decades; it can be seen right now in the malls, the clubs, television, the runway, but none could get it quite like her. I can tell you now, I havent perfected it but it is not from lack of trying. I'm to the point where I just need to get a Farrah WIG!

Farrah fought until the end..and allowed us to share in her last days..its hard to watch but it gives us comfort in knowing that she was aware and taking on the terrible disease called cancer head on...

Fashionable Farrah...Flawless Farrah...Fighting Farrah...Fearless Farrah...

It's Beach Time Divas!

Just because you are gonna get sandy and salty in the water doesnt mean you can't be fly walking to and from it ..its Beach Time girls!

No better way to top off or set off a bathing suit number than with a nice beach tote. I have seen some great bags and quite a few were recessionista approved! I have gathered of few to show you just what I mean. What I like about beach totes is that you can keep it fun, funky and stylist at the same time. Enjoy!

And just like that...its all over. The website that we all have known and loved that brought us the HAUTENESS, the FLYEST of the fly, the most Chic for the average chick..is closing down its url....

See, I had a feeling this would happen once LV pulled its sales from the eluxury site..but I didnt think it would send them to the big runway in the sky. OH LORD WHY!

The only thing left for us to do is to make sure that none of what is available until that June 26th date goes to waste....or to someone unworthy of its worthiness! If you are going to take advantage of this Death of a Dynasty you must do so immediately and right away! I'm taking breaks from typing this blog just to have a sneak peek.

R.I.P. ELuxury..thank you for all that you have done for fashion society
