We often see celebrities making runway looks their own - sometimes to great success, sometimes not so much. The Christopher Kane dress was actually a great choice for Nelly who wore it with black tights, bold jewellery and a sleek hairdo.
Queens of the Jungle: Animal Print TrendLeopard, Zebra and Tiger prints are still going strong. This amazingly glamorous gold tiger print monokini from Knites safari collection is jaw dropping, and Jessica Alba can't go wrong mixing jungle designs with her tanned skin.
Trend: Leather JacketsHave you noticed, the leather jacket has gotten sexier and more versatile? A good leather jacket should be able to be worn with anything from a grungy pair of jeans to a cocktail dress. Hooded leather jackets are one particular style that's taken off, with too many stars to name being snapped wearing the Mike & Chris version. Cropped cuts are also great for right now, as are vintage styles and anything that can be worn open in that nonchalant, effortlessly sexy way.
Trend Evolution - Turbans and HeadbandsHeadbands used to be worn around the head going under the hair, but somewhere in the not-so-distant past all that changed. All of a sudden stars have been seen with them over the top of their hair. Is Miuccia to blame for this trend?
Ashley Olsen wears the suit trendYou may recall my ramblings from the other day about 10 ways to make a suit look hot right now. The idea is be interesting and 'now' in the way a suit (or element of it) is worn - whether it's to work, casually or for the evening. Ashley Olsen was spotted at the Swarovski CFDA Nominee and Honoree Dinner in New York the other day wearing another example of the oversized jacket and leggings trend we mentioned. I think she pulls it off quite well.
Patchwork... Again?I was lead to believe that the days of patchwork pieces had gone with the 2003 hippie trend. I was so wrong! Because if Miss Selfridge is stocking it, it has to be a trend... again, right??? Well, I don't know what to think about it!
The Maxi Dress TrendPerhaps almost as a slap in the face to the Mini Dress Trend, celebrities have been spotted around wearing long, ankle length casual dresses. It's a shock to the system after wearing teeny tiny dresses for so long. Jessica Biel was seen playing ball with a dog in the park, wearing a long figure hugging blue dress. The Olsens have been known to dress up their long dresses as well as wearing long black skirts casually with oversized sunnies.
10 ways to wear a suit, right nowA classic suit may be forever; but suits can also be brought up-to-date with a few easy wardrobe tricks. Here are ten of the hottest ways to make your work-wear more interesting, right now: 1. Take an oversized suit jacket and wear it as a mini-dress. Take a long or oversized jacket, put it over an equally-oversized singlet or shirt; add opaque tights, some sexy pumps and there you have it! If the jacket isn't quite long enough to be worn as a dress, add a super-short, super-tight black miniskirt. 2. Try it with wide-leg, high-waist pants. Tuck in a shirt or tee, add a great belt. This won't be suited to everybody, but can certainly work if done right.
3. Add a vest and make it a three-piece. Wear all three matching, or contrast one of the pieces against the other two. Jessica Simpson pushes vintage rock tee trendWe weren't particularly impressed when we noticed the return of vintage rock and heavy metal tees as a fashion trend. And today our concern continues.
Boho is dead, long live FohoUnless you've been living in a country sadly devoid of a fashion sense, it'll come as no surprise to you to hear that the Boho look is dead. Actually, let's expand on that. As a major trend, it's certainly no longer mainstream - but don't go throwing out your clothing and boots just yet, we're sure they've still got plenty of wear left in them depending on how you match and accessorise them. After all, if you couldn't get away with it we wouldn't have given you tips for getting Boho bed hair only yesterday, would we? But what's the replacement? |
