Fashion On The GO!




Above is a extreamely lookalike photo of my sandals .
Well, today, a happy Summer day, the sun is shinning and the birds twittering, oh, no, sorry, tweeting. I pulled on my black back-zip studded and strappy gladiators, my peacock blue jean shorts and my yellow tank top on. After adding a few colorful wooden bracelets, painting my nails and putting a face sun-block I grabbed my sun-glasses and my big slouch bag. I applied some neutral gloss, black eyeliner and finished of with some white (for base), peacock blue and slightly a tinny bit of yellow eyeshadow (blended).
The thing I love about summer the most is that you don't need to wear many layers of clothing and that makes it faster and easier to compose an outfit. Summer 09' fashion is all about bright color's. And as long as you don't overdo it you're definitely going to have a successfully in-fashion look. Also strappy shoes and sandals are very much in fashion right now and studs (on shoes or clothing) give you a really rock attitude, (rock=fashion success). Always add accessories though, because you don't want to look dull, but remember again NOT to overdo it.
As you should know, this Summer is parted into 2 basic different "styles", rock and hippie. Personally I'm much more towards rock than hippie but I love bright neon colours which are another huge category in this summers fashion. I just like mixing and matching until the wanted result has been created.
But, always remember that you must choose your style "group" for this Summer, depending on what suits you best and not on what's more popular. Because as Coco Channel wisely said, we look best in what we like, feel comfortable in and suits us. So, if you want be like me and mix this Summers trends until you get the result that you are satisfied with.
REMEMBER: STUDS AND STRAPS ARE A MUST!
Happy Summer Girls.

Vera Wang Resort 2010

Vera Wang cheekily called Resort her "Calypso-meets-Intermix" collection. What the reference to those eclectic boutiques means is this: Not only are there more colors—safety orange, peacock blue, chartreuse—than in the designer's last several seasons combined, but the line is also chock-full of item-y pieces like slouchy, whisper-thin cardigans; lace shorts; and all manner of T-shirts and tanks for her customers to mix and match. The inspiration, Wang explained, came from her daughters, who are fond of wearing long tees over short shorts, and the lineup did have a more youthful sensibility than her runway shows. Save for the daisy chain necklaces, embellishments were for the most part pared down, and her signature voluminous silhouette has been likewise streamlined. The key piece was the one Wang herself wore to the CFDA Awards earlier this week: an olive gold sequin racer-back tank dress over a sleeveless white cotton T-shirt.

Fall 2009-Winter 2010- GLOVES

The new fashion season Fall 2009-Winter 2010 is already close to us and that means it’s high time we spoke about trends. This post will give you information about tendencies in glove fashion.

First of all I’d like to say that gloves themselves are a hot trend this season and designers paid lots of attention to them.

Gloves are incorporated into many outfits and certainly add much sophistication and glamour to them. So, what is going to be top fashionable this fall and winter?

1. Leather gloves. I don’t think you are surprised to know that, because leather gloves are always in style.

They are classic and if you want to have a pair to be appropriate now and ten years later this is exactly what you need.

Besides, there are various designs for you to choose from. The only thing to limit your choice is that all pairs of this season are rather long, they never end right at your wrist!

I love the style Zac Posen offered - long over-elbow clinging gloves, they look really perfect.

Elbow-length gloves also look great.

Those which are a bit shorter than that are presented in a huge variety:

different colors, fingerless, tight or loose-fitting gloves.

Derek Lam suggested reptile leather to make gloves from. The id

ea is interesting, isn’t it?

2. Suede gloves. Suede gloves aren’t as practical as leather ones but they do look as beautiful! Again lots of colors and designs give as a great opportunity to find the very pair we want. Ralph Lauren offers us classic styles while Carolina Herrera and Derek Lam show more street-like and casual styles.

3. Velvet gloves. If you wish to add chic to your wardrobe select a pair of velvet gloves. Elegant and sexy, they are appropriate for different occasions. Some are of a simple design; others are embellished with strasses, or worn with a watch.


4. Satin gloves. They weren’t presented in plenty in designers’ collections but I decided they deserve your attention. Smooth and shining fabric looks wonderful and such a pair will serve as a good accessory for any clothes, from an evening gown to a denim combination.


5. Lace gloves. If we have already started talking about gloves to pair an evening gown we should certainly mention lacy gloves. They are so tender, so cute. Some are made in a quite sheer fabric, others are highly patterned.


6. Short mannish gloves. For girls who don’t like feminine items these are just the right option.


7. Knitted gloves. Winter is a cold season and knitted gloves will do your hands good. And they look pretty too!



That is all, my dear ladies, wish you warm and happy winter!
Which kind of gloves do you prefer?

Carolina Herrera Spring Summer 2009 Fashion Show

It’s all clean and beautiful with Carolina Herrera. Feminine and perfectly romantic, her creations always fill my heart with a long lost fashion flavor.

Shades of red, white, gray, black, bright yellow, blue, nude beige, all combined for a classic look and a classy feel. It’s like an island in fashion. Carolina Herrera’s ruffled dresses can turn frogs into princesses in a frock swing. Makes me dream about simple fashion, a world where you wouldn’t have to think edgy and too daring, where you wouldn’t fear not being understood or mismatched. That’s how I feel about Carolina Herrera’s Spring Summer 2009. Here are few of the pieces I found brilliant but you can see all the show after the break plus Carolina Herrera herself explaining this collection. Wouldn’t you dream about an endless Red Carpet?
