Lookbooks or even some magazine photo styling are the one most helpful and informative as you wanted yourself to be stylish and fashionable for today’s trends industry. Because these are the basics and certainly a guide for us to know the dont and dos  we wear for us to get hip and dope above all. I actually seeing a bunch of lookbook photos from the sort of brands this very recent. I think, they were all working on it now for the upcoming season’s collection, Fall and Winter specifically. And one of the brand I’ve seen released an lookbook was this brand called SOPHNET.

I actually done blogging some pieces from this brand, SOPHNET, on this site, istarblog.com. Because I must say, most of their collection’s pieces are really speaks to my style and I simply liked the whole thing they implemented on each pieces they have done like the color blending, lining, patterns and even the clothes or the fabrics they’d used on each collection which in high in quality, I think so. And since I am an Asian, these styling are really in to us , Asians, because it is simple and yet the swagness are in to it already which most Asians are looking forward to.

In some ways, Asian fashion is quite complected. Because we used to mix and match all things we wanted without knowing the proper trends and on how the right way to wear certain pieces. And that’s how I think makes us way quirky for today’s fashion that most western people are trying to get when it comes to their styling.

The Best Fashion Trends, Styles and Accessories

A fashion style describes a wide range of clothing trends, designs and accessories, ranging from different eras, regions and affiliations. When adopting a certain fashion style, many factors should be put to consideration. Most importantly is what you as an individual adores. Many people go wrong in fashion by following trends based on what’s latest at a certain time or what the magnitude of peers and celebrities are following at the time, and in the process end up forgetting what they personally love to be seen in.

Many fashion gurus and trend setters advice that in order to achieve the best personal style in fashion, one should focus on what they think looks best in the eyes of those who matter in their lives. Go for what you feel the most stunning in. pick a fashion style that will not only look and feel good to you, but what will be attractive or seductive to whom you will be seeing on that particular day. Style is being able to identify the things that will work for a full outfit for you. Fashion on the other hand is some general design defined by society, which has a limited expiry period.

Here is where style and fashion really matter. Trendiness is what determines what amount of fun you will have in the club. Tmart Clubwear dresses come in one of the widest varieties in fashion, and also the most constantly changing categories too.

Skimpiness in the club is always the first impression, especially for the female clubwear dresses. Many girls are not able to control the amount of skin exposure when dressing for the club. In the attempt to turning as many heads, girls need to know where to draw the line. Another issue where many go wrong is on the accessories with which to accompany your clubwear dresses. The bags, jewelry and shoes play a big part in complimenting or trashing your club style, and as such should be carefully picked.

Over the years, jewelry has continued to gain increased popularity as more and more jewel fanatics continue to join the market.

To some, jewelry accessories are utilized for special occasions and events, while for others, it is a day to day requirement.

When it comes to classifying jewelry however, fashion advisors prefer to classify jewelry according to the occasion or the season. There is jewelry specifically defined for official and business purposes, which should focus on professionalism. You will also find jewelry made handy for travelling and long trips. There is also jewelry for rare occasions like weddings or proms, and also general jewelry accessories for all occasions.

Korean artists are often featured in the Vogue Magazine these past few months ago than to the other well known persona or artists from the other countries such as Philippines, Japan and Thailand, etc. I know, Korea has a huge contributions in the world of fashion today because of their quirky styles and guts to wear all the unusual wardrobes that we could ever seen. I think that was the edge of the Korean when it comes to fashion.

Recently, the 2 main and leading Kpop artists today, Taeyang and GD – Big Bang Member, had seen in the Vague magazine March Issue 2013 , yeah! this post is quite late already but still I’ve decided to post it up for me to have an document on which kpop artists are got featured on the magazine this whole year 2013. By the next year, I’ll all update you here with all the artists they’ve got in all for the  vogue magazine month’s issues, as my compilation post.

I actually dont have any idea on these photos ads. I just only found them dope by styling themselves in this quite emo inspired looks. Nonetheless, they’re both awesome in whatsoever they’d decided to wear and in every ads they made up this year around. And am quite sure that most of you folks are starting off to find all these pieces, the brands of the pieces they’ve worn here, for you to mic mic the styling.

Popular K-pop Fashion Trends

South Korea is a beautiful country known for its rich culture, delicious food, and breathtaking tourist destinations. However, it is also widely known for its Korean dramas and K-pop or Korean pop. For those who do not know, K-pop is a musical genre characterized by a wide variety of audiovisual elements. It is also used to describe modern South Korean pop music like pop ballad, dance pop, rock, hip hop, R&B, electronic and many more. Nowadays, we often see countless K-pop boy and girl bands singing both Korean and English songs. Although most of us might not understand what they are saying, this does not stop us from listening to their songs, buying their albums and going to their concerts.

K-pop is also known for setting fashion trends and new styles. Some of these looks may be deemed worthy in the fashion world, but there are looks that are bordering on the extreme side, looks that ordinaly individuals might find a bit hard to wear. Since I consider myself a fashion forward person, I sometimes try to emulate the K-pop fashion trends that can be worn everyday. I do not want to overdo things lest I look like I am trying too hard. I only incorporate some of the trends into my wardrobe like for instance, wearing K-pop inspired accessories. Of course it is up to you if you want to copy the whole look. I often visit online stores such as zalora.com.ph, romwe.com and coco-fashion.com to look for K-pop inspired items.

The School Girl Look is one popular fashion trend. We often see K-pop female artists wearing preppy school uniforms that make them look innocent yet flirty. This is suitable for teenagers but for more matured women, this look will definitely not work. Wearing neon colors is another stylish trend that you can incorporate into your wardrobe. Your ensemble does not necessarily have to be neon, you can probably wear just a neon top or vice versa.

Another staple of K-pop fashion is military accents. This is a stylish look that works for both men and women. The secret to this trend is to mix the pieces into your outfit so it does not look as if you are wearing a costume. Wearing colored pants is also cool. Girl bands are seen wearing bold colors while boy bands are seen wearing pastel colors.

If you love bold animal prints, then you are just like your favorite K-pop idol. Leopard print in various shades and sizes especially. Last but not the least is clashing 80’s patterns that is suitable for people who have a bold and funky personality. You can wear any 80’s inspired print and mix it with another bold print. Accessories should be simple when you are wearing this trend.
