The New Years Resolution Goals!!!

So this year has been one long growing pain for me. But I am now a stronger unit because of all of it and am finally at a point to see how necessary much of that pain and overcoming some insecurities has made me realize just how much more capable I am. Nothing like standing up to fear in the face and punching it out....So here are some Angel Lust resolutions...



1. Double the orders monthly they have been supporting me and paying my bills which is great for something that started and accessory line less than a year ago.
2. Get more wholesale orders.
3.Go to California to introduce the line in person to buyers
4. Throw more fancy trunk shows in fancy boutiques with catered cupcakes!!!
5. Finally get an awsome kick ass E commerce site up for ANGEL LUST...
6. More Gossip Girl appearances!!!
7. Get some headbands on the red carpet with Julia Allison wearing them on her pretty little head,get a mention on her blog and then some.
8. Work on some more little accessories.
9. Make some exclusive dresses just for me and if someone likes em that much they can get a private made to measure order.
10. Find a backer
11. Collaboration with other cool nice enthusiastic un-narcissistic designers.



Now for my personal non designer resolutions....I feel like I'm writing a personal business plan for my living situation.

1. More working out,more yoga!!!
2. keeping a cleaner house.
3. Getting a working studio in Brooklyn to make my designer mess in.
4. Learning how to cook more and actually doing it

Merry Christmas Mix

Nutcracker Ice Queen Dreams

The Modern Nutcracker by angellustnyc

This winter wonderland holiday post is inspired by the nutcracker's charachter Marie and what she would wear in the modern day ballet of life walking through the ice cold romantic city today!!! The Belt is by Top Shop, the lower flowered head piece is from Jennifer Behr one of my favorite hair designers,That gorgeous unaffordable necklace is by Tom Binns and the ballet flats are by Repetto!!! I think that today Marie may not be sporting tiaras but rather subdued headbands made of crystal and feathers...However decadent over the top glammed out dresses definitely!!!

TMI with Angel Lust in Action

Julia Allison just contacted me again!!! Boy am I flattered since over a month ago when I saw her blog I immediately thought UM POSTER GIRL!!! Well look forward to me being featured on an upcoming episode in January about the headbands I make...I'm so excited for this. I love working with professional Girly Girls!!!

Molly Crabapple

So like do you ever like go out and get introduced to like this real cool girl and then you find out you've seen all her work because she's been hired by like the hottest club in NYC (THE BOX) to illustrate their hottest acts aka Justine Joli and The Porcelain Twinz. Well I did last night and her name is Molly Crabapple and this is her work!!!.

Butter Cream Babe

During these hard economic times many think it would be crazy to start your own business. I'm glad the folks at Butter Lane don't think so. They are the East Village's best and only cupcake makers. Organic cupcakes that is,they use the finest natural ingredients. I hear customers boast about how they are better than OMG don't say it "MAGNOLIA"!!! I've been waiting for at least 2 years for a cupcake making place to open and now I eat one every day. My recession diet is one cupcake a latte and crackers for dinner.

Julia Allison is my Homegirl

So I've known who Julia Allison by name for years just because Gawker is constantly teasing her. I don't know why it took me so long to google her like last month. Her Web page is the cutest array of girly girl photos and vimeo casts. So I was super excited that she contacted me via Jessica Cutler last night because she wanted some headband couture. I got excited because she was going to wear it and she constantly gets her pick taken. Too bad I was swamped in orders or actually thank God I was since cash seems to be so sparingly these days.


Meet Julia from NonSociety on Vimeo.

Next time Julia!!! Just a couple of days in advanced lovely girl.

All things the Angel Lusty Lady Loves

Boudoir by angellustnyc

Above are all the things I indulge in ie. heart shaped sweets,expensive lingerie and flowers. Its no secret I am an Agent Provocateur lingerie wearing fiend. My signature scent is Emotionelle and my apartment resembles all what you see above. My world is a fun filled sophisticated dollhouse surrounded in erotic photo books. I grew up loving Ellen Von Unwerth photography and glued to the images she created. I am constantly dreaming of or looking for the next cupcake or egg cream I can get my manicured hands on.

As long as I can remember I've indulged in all sorts of hair candy.

Vena Cava Inspired

This post is dedicated to the Brooklyn-centric girl's behind the label VENA CAVA!!! Sophie Buhai was one of my favorite classmate's at Parson's School of Design. I spent senior year draping in the same studio as she and her quirky sense of fashion. She would stroll into class in vintage dresses and a smile. We shared many great talks,and Cat Power marathons through out the term. Now she designs and tackles the fashion world with her friend Lisa Mayock.


Vena Cava by angellustnyc
Both Tops above by VENA CAVA,Boots by Alexander McQueen,the rest are items I picture their customer wearing to fit the look.



VENA CAVA is releasing a shoe line with Via Spiga,the shoes will go for 300 to 800 dollars. Monk fish skin was one of the materials they used to design the high end heals.


Watch this inspiring video. The two chat about their design processand their inspiration.

My favorite thing about Sophie was the modesty she had about her entire life from her childhood surrounded by famed individuals to her endless supply of eccentric talent. Her innocent child like face and sense of humor where a joy to be around and made light of things during an intense school year.

Garden Fancy Fashion

Garden Love by angellustnyc

What you see above is expensive designer items. We're all strapped for cash these days so its best to take advantage of some major sales,and try to keep it local to support NYC's Downtown Fashion community (if you'd like us to last)...I am going to use the above as inspiration and show you how to get the look downtown.

Thank you to all of you have bought any headpieces from me these past 3 months. Its helped me to maintain Angel Lust healthily. Iloveshop.com has stuff up to 75% off,and 25% off all jewelry which a bulk of is on consignment from indie jewelry designers. Mandate of Heaven is worth investing in because it is a small Brooklyn based designer that makes everything as an original,you won't find anything like it anywhere.
