Microsoft once turned its eye to Wayfarers

Feast your eyes on these babies.

That's right, they're so Pirates of Silicon Valley it hurts. These "sexy" two tone wayfarers which come to us from a very long time ago from a much hipper, happening Microsoft. What's more these are apparently the very last pair of these retro cool specs in existence. We can almost see the young Bill Gates strutting round the office chatting up the girls of Microsoft toting these back in 80s. I can almost hear you screaming "I want them now", so after the jump check out the eBay listing;

Sienna Miller in Twenty8Twelve boyfriend pant

Yes, we have the boyfriend jeans fashion trend, but we can't decide if Sienna Miller's pants fall within it given they're not traditional denim jeans.

Diane Kruger wears see-through dress

It's been one of our favourite fashion trends in 2008; and leave it to Diane Kruger to wear it in the most sensual of ways.

Charlize Theron in one-shouldered dress

As 2008 comes to an end it's fashion trends are slowly dwindling away and I'm increasingly seeing looks which will form the basis of 2009's fashion trends; but there's one 2008 fashion trend that doesn't seem to be going anywhere. In fact, don't be at all surprised if the one-shouldered fashion trend joins us for 2009.

Jennifer Hawkins in single-shouldered dress

Normally more a 'girl next door' than current fashion trends follower, Jennifer Hawkins never-the-less partook in the single-shoulder fashion trend at yesterday's launch of 30 Days of Fashion and Beauty.

Rachel Bilson in snake-skin gladiator sandals

I have to hand it to Rachel Bilson; she doesn't mind standing out. And in this case if it's not for the long, somewhat foho dress she is wearing, then it's definitely for her partaking in the gladiator sandals trend.

April 77's take on the Boyfriend Jeans Trend

Another day another take on the boyfriend jeans trend. This time by my favourite jeans company April 77. These jeans promise to solve the dilemma of who gets to wear his jeans, or at least that's what Laura from April 77 tells us.

All the elements are there: the slouch, the looseness, and of course the rolled up bottoms because you don't want to rip up your boyfriends jeans. That is unless you want to also partake in the ripped denim trend while you're at it.

Jennifer Aniston in boyfriend jeans

Not normally a person to appear on our fashion trends radar, actress Jennifer Aniston pops up this week courtesy of 2009's boyfriend jeans fashion trends. She wore the trend while out and about in New York City.

Gary Bigeni Spring/Summer 2008/2009

Gary Bigeni's designs are almost paradoxical: his choice of fabrics and colours are so simple, and yet his designs are utterly unique in their construction. Bigeni adds trademark twists and drapes that are almost escher-esque in their complexity - which contrast perfectly to the overall simplicity of the garments. His Spring / Summer 2008-2009 collection brings electric blue, soft grey and muted tangerine into the mix.

Gary Bigeni's S/S collection will show at High Fashion High Tea during Melbourne Spring Fashion Week (MSFW). Follow the link to reserve your place at the event.
