What’s New in the Fashion World?

I was watching TV yesterday and chanced upon the morning show that featured the fashion of 2011 and a look-back at the fashion in 2010. Two fashionistas were interviewed and several local young celebrities.

The gist is, be yourself…and if you can’t handle it, don’t wear it. What’s basic and functional is stressed…then accessorize.

Several designs were shown for men and women that can be worn casually and formally but it seems they have forgotten (or did not really think about) to include hip hop clothing despite its becoming more on the rise.

As for me, I don’t go for what’s in fashion. I like what the host of the show said…wear something that makes you look clean (even if you’re not). I go for decency the most.

How to Choose Your Style

Have you ever sat down and tried to figure out your style?

This article can help you do this in easy steps. Everyone has a style and you can perfect it!

Things You’ll Need:
  • Fashion Magazines
  • Celebrity Magazines
  • Style Magazines
  • Catalogs
  • Blank Book
  • Scissors
  • Glue/Tape
  • Red Marker

Instructions

Step 1: You have a style. Now you will figure out what that is. It’s very fun to do. Grab a bunch of catalogs, fashion, celebrity, and style magazines.

Step 2: Mark what you like in these magazines. You may be shocked to find that you like many different things.

Step 3: Once you mark what you like, cut ‘em out. Categorize into dressy, work, casual, and odds n’ ends.

Step 4: This is where your blank book comes in. Categorize your book the same way that you did your clippings. Paste them within the categories, one per page.

Step 5: After you have done that, go back and write next to each clipping, why you like it and if you have any of the things to put together the look.

Step 6: Now you have a good idea of what your style is and a book full of outfits as well.

Bring on the Bling

Holy moley, we died and went to fashion heaven when we learned that Aldo and Swarowski got together and made a little fashion baby. AKA: this amazing crochet and crystal necklace. Treat yourself to one of these beauties (priced at $180) at your nearest ALDO.

 

Mini Skirt Trends

Mini skirt fashion – Hot Summer Trend 2011: Modern generation of girls love mini skirts. That’s a common truth. And we don’t wear mini only when it is trendy, we wear it no matter what is trendy!

So, it’s just pleasant news that mini is a hot trend for the current summer season. Fashion stylist Rachel Zoe says miniskirts are the must-have fashion item of the moment. She also comments on why shorter skirts are good for your figure.

She said:

Mini is the length that’s happening right now. Shorter skirts elongate legs.”

Mini skirts and mini dresses look great but when you dress to go out remember one simple fashion rule: don’t expose too much. If you wear a short skirt make sure you don’t reveal anything else. Otherwise you can overdo!
