McQueen was my all time favorite designer. He was so dark and risk taking, he understood a lot of things that other designers didn’t. I created outfits (as above) out of his items on a daily basis. I don’t think he realized how big of an impact he had within the music industry. Almost every single women i know who works in the music industry, or is a musician has loved him. He is someone who the darker, edgier girls could run to when they needed some funk in their style that they couldn’t get from Cavalli(because he wasn’t “edgy” enough). You are able to walk into any label, and see at least one person representing McQueen. I think that says a lot. And its scary to see who will take over his empire, because whoever does will not only have the biggest shoes to fill but they will need to be ready for the worst criticism. With that being said, I feel Christian Siriano should take over. Having worked with him as an intern, he clearly has an understanding of what went through his mind, and it is visible through his designs. If the Gucci Group was smart, they would offer him the position. I cant think of anyone else who would be able to come close to McQueen, unless they aren’t discovered yet. With that being said, it really sucks that he is gone, but his legacy will live on in our hearts forever.

Christian Siriano for VS Make-up. We tried it, WE LOVED IT! The Gilded Fierce Silky Eye Shadow and Embrace Lip Gloss are our favorites. They compliment each-other well, the hints of gold in the eye shadow help to create a shimmery glamorous smokey eye (that actually glistens!), and the color of embrace keeps your lips looking sexy without taking all of the attention off the eye. Might we add the GOLD totally sold us. A look we love! And we LOVE LOVE LOVE Christian!
