Name</b> <span style="font-weight: normal;">Maia Starr</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span><b>
Age</b> <span style="font-weight: normal;">I have been on this planet for one quarter of a century and then some...</span><br />

Occupation</b> <span style="font-weight: normal;">Freelance Writer & Nightlife Blogger</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span><b>What's your major fashion weakness?</b><br />
<b><br /></b><span style="font-weight: normal;">I have a really tough time buying pants. This dates back to early childhood - my mother couldn't get me to wear anything other than a pink or purple skirt. While I've progressed to wearing different colors, I can't seem to make myself wear pants. There's always a skirt or dress that I'd rather buy. Three months out of the year, this isn't a problem, but I live in New York. December through February you can find me quivering in my boots and minis.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
The wearability, and the versatility of many of the pieces. Particularly this dress - I could wear it with sheer stockings and stilettos if I were going to a benefit or wedding. In this case, I had about thirty different place to go - uptown and downtown - and so I needed to keep it chic enough for fancy-pants Midtown, but edgy enough to navigate Lower Manhattan post-Sandy.</div>

First I had dinner at ALTA with my friend Gatsby on West 10th Street because I was writing a focus piece on downtown restaurants in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy...Dining out downtown is a huge deal right now! Restaurants lost a lot of money - and so did the people who work in them! Then, I had to go to Beauty & Essex on the Lower East Side because I had to swing through for a friend's birthday. Gatsby wanted to change so we headed to her apartment in the Windsor Arms. It took her forever to change so naturally I took some pictures of myself lounging on her bed. The bottom left picture is of me finding out they were - for some sad reason - <i>not</i> giving out free champagne in the ladies room of Beauty & Essex. Usually they do! We moved the party to the bar at The St. Regis all the way uptown, which is where you see me in front of a fireplace in the bottom right picture. That dress went everywhere!</div>

Fortunately, you can wear vintage leather just about everywhere. I loved the way the roughness of the leather worked in juxtaposition to the utter glam of the dress.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I added an ivory and silver clutch to lighten things up...usually I hate carrying clutches because I leave the everywhere, but this one just worked so well with the sparkle of the dress.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My lipstick is NARS Red Lizard. It's a great red. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My boots are Diesel from about four or five years ago. I bought them with my Dad in SoHo when we were supposed to be picking out Christmas Gifts for my Mom.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The leather jacket is a vintage score...if I told you where I scored it, I'd have to kill you.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>What are your favorite brands? </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Usually I'm partial to Marc Jacobs, or for fancier occasions, Ted Baker or Nicole Miller. and then other than that I shop vintage or online boutiques like NastyGal and Lulus. There's nothing I hate more than Tory Burch flats. </div>

<b>A Brooklyn Brunch that lasted til 7 PM</b></div>

My sunglasses are from one of the vendors on St. Marks, my jacket is Levi's 501. My shoes (which are barely visible in this shot as they match the cement) are thrifted little booties. I'll take another pic so you can see the detail. The shirt under the jacket is another gem from <a href="http://flirtnation.com./">FlirtNation.com.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can see the shirt a little better in this instagram...It's really cute and it has a hi-low style that's so hot right now. I paired it with thrifted red corduroys but I think I'll also try it with a body-con mini at some point.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, I've included a detail shot of the boots (thrifted) since they blend in with the concrete, and a close up of my belt. The Southern Comfort buckle belonged to my father in the sixties. One day, while in a thrift store on a shopping expedition, the dude behind the counter offered me $100 for it - which means it is probably worth a lot more. <b>Yes, I am bragging. </b></div>

Well, actually...a lot. Streets overflowing with tourists (many intoxicated), weird old guys, and the excess roaming into SoHo and thus disrupting my shopping. But my girl Erica and I had a great time on Saturday.</div>

AND MY OUTFIT! I'm wearing a vintage school-girl style dress, and old Nannette Lepore kneesocks. For accessories, I added a FlirtNation.com belt that you can purchase <a href="http://www.flirtcatalog.com/belt/d/2556_c_401" target="_blank">HERE</a>, which goes perfectly with my trusty Marc Jacobs bag. Nothing goes better than black, gold, and red. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are tiny gold crucifixes in my ears, but since I was already wearing so much gold and the FlirtNation.com belt is such a statement piece I didn't wear much else in the way of jewelry.</div>

This dress is my favorite vintage find of all time...I bought it for $5 at Aardvarks in Los Angeles and it fits me as though it has been tailored for me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You may recognize my shoes...I rock them a lot. They're Dolce Vita's that I purchased from <a href="http://flirtnation.com/">FlirtNation.com</a> a while back.</div>

I'm finally escaping NYC for Montauk for the long weekend tonight after my friends finish their bartending shifts!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yesterday I was working out of my colleagues apartment on East 10th Street and since we were taking portraits of one another for our Company's website, I decided to strong-arm him into helping me with photos for my blog as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's my layered outfit since I constantly catch colds in the summer due to the way people pump their AC:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0CEBnuvpR-4EiSckHPvmdWsuAyXW9-ce6AqDw7lL3GRzjalhy6BT2t6EGCDn667vsUV0IrkUbFgyXkGWGmDMSzAT-QixKO3_61POJ0gxTLsFscAv5lK3EXwEy2LSDHtM2wOi3dW0OcLg/s1600/BlogCover-LaborDay.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0CEBnuvpR-4EiSckHPvmdWsuAyXW9-ce6AqDw7lL3GRzjalhy6BT2t6EGCDn667vsUV0IrkUbFgyXkGWGmDMSzAT-QixKO3_61POJ0gxTLsFscAv5lK3EXwEy2LSDHtM2wOi3dW0OcLg/s1600/BlogCover-LaborDay.jpeg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let's break it down:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The adorbs chambray shirt on top is from my recent obsession, FlirtNation.com. It's made to be tied like that (IMHO) but you can also just button it, too. If you look at the model in the link below, she just buttoned it with a pair of white jeans and looks fly as all hell.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm wearing a size Medium and I'm generally a 4-6 on top but I like my sleeves long and I can't stand stuff that's too tight. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Get the <a href="http://www.flirtcatalog.com/chambray-shirt/d/1750_c_155" target="_blank">CHAMBRAY CROP TOP here!</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's another view of the top. I layered a bralette from Free People underneath.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhujrAspoQynJYrl8eyJpcFi9ZMlvaVcAYRWmRiIEL1X-AHzgYEfAGKxe9a9fyQJy0UF6tTwB-r3J4gaAhjo2WWWiIqbllXA_UFrmC5xXozVt3795eCv9LmZkdyBOPswoyO9YvtscOtq0/s1600/BlogDetail-Face+Shirt.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhujrAspoQynJYrl8eyJpcFi9ZMlvaVcAYRWmRiIEL1X-AHzgYEfAGKxe9a9fyQJy0UF6tTwB-r3J4gaAhjo2WWWiIqbllXA_UFrmC5xXozVt3795eCv9LmZkdyBOPswoyO9YvtscOtq0/s640/BlogDetail-Face+Shirt.jpeg" width="630" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yeah, the sunglasses are hot too. My Dad bought them for me from <a href="http://shop.guess.com/" target="_blank">Guess</a> (how Italian-princess is that?) so they were seriously over eighty dollars which I usually don't do.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(I oft leave my sunglasses in fitting rooms because I have a shopping addiction.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plus, Guess is kind of tacky, but Daddy and I were in Midtown so I had to think quick about what I wanted and where I could get it before the money stopped burning a hole in his pocket.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Yeah, the skirt is poofy for days. It's from <a href="http://www.tedbaker.com/" target="_blank">Ted Baker's</a> Womenswear Collection which I found in my "Happy Place," Bloomingdales SoHo. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Fall is my absolute <b>favorite</b> season for style!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's the best time of year in New York City. The cooler weather is always such a relief since the humidity is so absurd in August. Walking through Midtown feels like walking over hot coals - I swear. <br />
<br />
Sometimes I feel like I'm literally cooking.<br />
<br />
Grossness.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But, by Mid-September (right around fashion week!) the heat begins to mellow, and I find myself spending hours, belly-down on my bed, perusing the pages of Vogue and flipping around on shopping websites on my iPad.<br />
<br />
Here's a look I'm sure to be rocking this fall:</div>

I'm looking forward to wearing <a href="http://www.flirtcatalog.com/long-sleeve-wrap-dress/d/2533" target="_blank">long-sleeved mini dresses</a> from <a href="http://flirtcatalog.com/">FlirtCatalog.com</a> (my new favorite website for sexy dresses) in a latte shade of cream...</div>

I'm also pretty excited about the recent resurgence of SEQUINS! They were everywhere on the runways and now I'm seeing them in hot new ready-to-wear collections and I can't get enough.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Check it out...this Ginger Dress by <a href="http://www.dressthepopulation.com/" target="_blank">DressThePopulation</a> was worn by Ashley Tisdale at the Rock of Ages premier, but I like the way this model chick pulls it off on Lulu's website:</div>

Actually, these heels get me excited for the most ridiculous reason: I love not having to worry about getting a pedicure every week or so during the fall and winter. <br />
<br />
What? I like having more money in the bank for my shopping habit.<br />
<br />
As Martha Stewart would say, "It's a good thing."<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi, Monkeys.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had a rough week last week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Which meant a trip to Atlantic City was in order! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My friends El and Michelle (yes, seriously) had a room booked at <a href="http://www.revelresorts.com/" target="_blank">Revel</a> in Atlantic City and they invited me along. Revel is a new Casino and it's smoke free, which was AMAZING! I hate leaving a casino and smelling like one for days.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plus it's super unhealthy to be around 2nd hand smoke, kiddies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nothing makes me feel better about life than turning my money into plastic chips, and then giving those chips to a stranger in exchange for a few minutes of card-play! Bye, clothing money! See ya!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bah.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At least I looked good as I lost a cool $200.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here I am posing in the living room of our suite. There were a ton of quirky toys and books for me to pose with so I took advantage of the situation and decided to blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here I am lookin' for trouble in one of my all-time favorite pieces - a <a href="http://flirtcatalog.com/">FlirtCatalog.com</a> fish-tail dress. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love this dress because it is like an all-inclusive resort for you body parts. That sounds strange, but straight talk: there's a bodysuit/leotard inside, so you needn't worry about how you're going to stay IN the dress.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seriously, I wear a 32 C and there were no awkward boob situations. Sure, there's a little side-cleavage going on but I like that look. (Don't you?)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

On my wrists I'm wearing a <a href="http://www.bythestones.com/" target="_blank">Citrine By The Stones</a> gold-plated bracelet (those bangles are actually one slinky-like bracelet!) and a bone bracelet that my mother purchased for me in St. John, USVI.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I love hi-low hemlines! And martian guns! BTW, I'm wearing the same <a href="http://www.dolcevita.com/" target="_blank">Dolce Vita</a> wedges I wore in my last blog. I'm obsessed with them. Sue me!</div>

Here I am on the couch guarding all of the money I'm about to lose, which I kept in my brown and beige bag from <a href="http://flirtcatalog.com/">FlirtCatalog.com</a>. Again, I wore this in my last blog but the two pieces are SO versatile.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's all for now! Hopefully I'm going to be able to post again soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

For now, I'll leave you with this instagram of me, El, and Michelle laughing as we fritter away at our savings...jk.</div>

Happy Father's Day, pumpkins!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because we can't do anything in a normal way, my family celebrated Father's Day tonight...well...it is Midnight right now...so I mean, last night.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My parents live in Westchester, which is a suburb of Manhattan. Picket fences, no houses for BLOCKS, all that good stuff. See below:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the occasion, I kept it casual. You can't see cuz I wore my hair huge, but I only wore some simple vintage gold studs in my ears. Other than that I was jewel-free, which is RATHER unusual for yours truly.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

These lovelies are from FlirtCatalog, my most recent addiction. They're still in stock in coral and black, I think. Click on the link to buy these <a href="http://www.flirtcatalog.com/p-97322-cut-out-ankle-strap-pump.aspx?breakcolor=STONE" target="_blank">Cut-out Platforms</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's the full look: This is me by day, kind of conservative, but you can see I'm still rockin' the sheer. There's something about summer and sheer that's synonymous in my mind...</div>

In any event, this shot of my poor posture actually shows off how cute those <a href="http://www.flirtcatalog.com/p-97575-ruffle-band-waist-shorts.aspx?breakcolor=GREEN" target="_blank">lil' green shorties</a> are cut! (Also from FlirtCatalog, and linked above.)</div>

My top was a hand-me-down from my old college roomie before she left NYC for Swellay. I'm going to visit her this week so hopefully I'll have time to blog with her as she works for one of my FAVE designers...</div>Maia Starrhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13633879165287473244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241933110090917776.post-80017281402899213942012-06-11T10:00:00.001-07:002012-06-22T16:52:27.208-07:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Happy Sunday! I spent Sunday Funday frolicking around lower Manhattan with my friend Janie. We went to brunch, then had some cocktails at our friend Erika's house, and wrapped up the evening by getting dinner at the pretty L.E.S restaurant, Ten Bells. Needless to say, I'm going to be running at least five miles later.<br />
