The Best of LA: The Tailor

Every girl needs a reliable tailor.  Tailors can make the difference between
a good fitting garment, and a great fitting garment. Not to mention, you can
update old jeans, skirts and dresses for a fraction of the cost
or buying new stuff.

Jenny is an AMAZING and inexpensive tailor.

The Style Icon: Lady Gaga



I'm sure we have all seen the latest video from Lady Gaga for her latest single, "Bad Romance" and we can all say that that video is truly remarkable with such eye candy outfits. I'm pretty obsessed with this lady and her style has been such an inspiration to the fashion world. Her style is so distinct and I cannot stop googling her!

The Ray And The Ro: Out And About For Fashion Collective Event



Ra and I were out last week at the Fashion Collective event in LA which featured the most amazing lines! The event was held at the Avalon Hotel, and of course we had to dress to impress. 


Ray is wearing an amazing vintage tiger sweater dress that she bought in Little Ethiopia... the outfit is accompanied with a vintage animal print hang bag, leggings and of course, her fucking amazing black Acne platforms!

Christmas is coming up and the recession is still amongst us and we need to be smart with our gifting and how much we spend.

You can get a whole bunch of items with substance and thought for under a hundred dollars. 


The boys with not a lot of money with girlfriends who deserve a great gift- TAKE A NOTE here.... the jewelry is a great buy along with some perfume and/or a t-shirt or tote.

About

From working right next door to each other, two girls by the names of Rachel and Roberta bonded over their love for expensive shoes and each others' distinct styles.

With Rachel having effortless sense of mixing designer and vintage finds and Roberta in love with all things avant-garde and funky, it would only be right to combine fashion forces.

The two girls became instict friends, fashion soulmates, and now co-partners for The Ray and The Ro.

The site was named off our nicknames to each other, The Ray (being Rachel) and The Ro (being Roberta) and our objective for this site is to bring you a little taste of all the HAUTEST things in fashion.

xoxo. The Ray, and The Ro.
