Snows are starting to melt down, and summer season is fast approaching here where I resides. Nope! I think we do have a year-round summer season.LOL That’s why having an great sunglasses is a must! ehhe Today, let me share with you these new set of collaborative sunglasses from the 2 giant brands called Bernhard Willhelm & MYKITA. They came up on this idea of releasing new set of sunglasses that has this vintage theme and at the same time it has these trendy features on it.

I simply liked the UV protection feature which helps us to protect our eyes in the sun rays and other irritating lights from the outdoor activities. Also, the colors uses on the sunglasses lenses are pretty cool too and it can brings back really the 80’s era which I know most of our parents would surely like to have. This is a prefect gift too for your dad this new year.

As of now, the Bernhard Willhelm x MYKITA 2014 Spring/Summer Collection is not yet available in the market. However, as the brand states few days back. These sunglasses were be able to be out these days ahead, probably at the first week or 2nd week of the month of January 2014. So – we better check this out! 🙂

LOL Okay, recently, I’ve been stumbled with this one Kpop fan based site where this dope jacket were posted and look, Yoseob of b2st wore it out and rock it to dope. The Jacket is from the brand “Opening Ceremony Exclusive” not sure though if it is the brand’s name of it or just an part of the whole jacket’s name. LOL, Bear with me then because I am not really familiar with this find. ehhe

Anyway, the Jacket ” Opening Ceremony Exclusive Varsity Jacket” is okay with me though I do liked the colors uses to it and still, I wanted it to be more unique by adding some more prints in it. Because as Ive seen the other finds out there from the other brands, I think, they were all working on with these patterns and prints for this 2014’s fashion trends that’s why having it to any finds, it is well to do on my opinion. But overall, the jacket is perfectly to wear especially on this winter season we have.

Shop Chic Dresses Online

Your prom is one of the special events while in high school. Finding a dress can be fun, and you can look for one that reflects your personality so that it is different from all the rest. Shop by style so that you can find the perfect dress to accent your neckline, body style and height.

Nude or Print?
When looking for a prom dress, you should first decide whether you want one that has a lot of color or one that has a nude effect. The color of your dress will help determine the color of shoes and accessories you will wear. Nude dresses often have colored beading or jewels on the top of the dress, and the rest of the dress is a beige or ivory color. Print dresses can be fun because you have several colors to choose from, and there are a variety of designs you can look for. Choose from an animal print with multiple colors or an elegant dress with variations of the same color.

Sleeves
After you have determined what color of dress you want to get, you need to look at the sleeves. Are you going to wear something that is sleeveless with a scarf or wrap, or will you get something that has longer sleeves in the event the evening is chilly? There are dresses with only one shoulder and dresses that have a sleeve design that makes it look like there is an entire sleeve when there is really only decorations on the arms.

Accents
The accents on the dress are the last things you will choose. Ruffles are an option if you want the dress to have bounce and volume. You can get a dress that is higher in the front with a lower portion in the back that extends to the feet. Choose a dress that has lace if you want something that is more elegant. Feathers are a fun option if you want the top in one color and the bottom in a different shade. After you have your dress, complete the ensemble with shoes and jewelry.

Catching Fire: Hunger games inspired style

by admin

You might have read the books or taken a trip to the cinema, or your interaction with Hunger Games franchise may have been accidental, but, you would have been exposed to it at one point or another – unless you just woke up from a coma that is.

Having made its mark on box-office figures and book sales, Catching Fire has proved to be hot hot hot in the fashion world, influencing both men and women’s styles.

From attractive actors to outstanding clothing, your gaze never wanders from the screen. I particularly love the contrast between the practical fashions of the rugged Districts and opulent designs of the Capitol.  From earthy tones and distressed denim, to high-shine fabrics and blue hair, the differences are a stroke of true costume design genius.

So if you want to create something a worthy of Katniss, Peeta or Caesar, here’s my top outfits picks to help you create your own screen-hero.

Caesar Flickerman

One of the boldest characters in the films without a doubt, Caesar’s style is loud and over the top. While you might think his purple eyebrows and high-shine jackets are more fancy dress than street style, you can take a little of his confidence and wear it with ease. How about a gorgeous Alexander McQueen skull suit? Available from FarFetch, it might be pretty costly but again, it’s McQueen, it’s hardly going to be bargain! Forgetting its price, I think it’s a great Caesar-esc suit for the bold dresser who wants to make an entrance and entertain an audience.

Katniss Everdeen

For all my fashion loving girls who are looking for a more accessible style, the woman to turn to is the heroic Katniss Everdeen. The District 12 fighting femme has made a huge impact on current trends and we’re seeing her stylish practicality everywhere. Chanel her ready-for-anything look by pairing these gorgeous dark grey marble effect Lee skinny jeans from Psyche with a tough but pretty pair of boots. The Ugg Australia Black Jena Military Boots are perfect!

Peeta Mellark

Peeta is our reliable hero and like him, most of his clothing choices are wardrobe-essentials you can trust. He owned the tight black tee during the fight-to-the-death games, so invest in a good cotton number as a base-layer. Pair it with some khaki trousers and a hooded waterproof jacket, like the Lyle & Scott vintage jacket from ASOS and you’re ready to be victorious – in the fashion stakes that is.

Recently, most of the mainstream brands when it comes in street fashion wears or others knew them as skating brands are already got their pieces and collection available in the market for the season, winter. Because they have to released some new finds for us guys to be still dope as season had changed, I preferring to season summer changing in the fall/winter. However though, they’re still some awesome brands out there that haven’t yet released theirs new creations or new in pieces for this season and one of those brands was this A SKATING APE . Though, I am not really familiar with to the brand yet and its pieces offers. And yet, I must say their each pieces are these type of dopeness finds which most of you guys are looking for to have. See their collection lookbook at the top photos for you to see for yourself on how awesome their pieces are..

For further information about this A SKATING APE 2013 Fall/Winter Lookbook.

For women with a fuller figure, choosing a style that they feel comfortable with can be tricky. If you’re a curvy lady who’s struggling to decide on the right look for your body shape, it’s important to go for pieces that flatter your curves whilst minimising problem areas. Don’t even consider wearing shapeless layers in the hope of disguising your curves. Instead be proud of your feminine shape, follow these great hints for stylish looks for curvaceous women and rock those curves!

The Belted Trench

A belted trench is the perfect coat to highlight an hourglass figure, as the belt nips in your waist and exaggerates its tiny size compared to your hips and bust. Tie the belt as tightly as is comfortable to really accentuate your knockout figure and give you a fashionable 1950s look. If you’re particularly busty, then a double-breasted trench will add extra bulk on top, so try a single-breasted trench for a more flattering effect. A belted trench is casual enough to be worn for shopping trip and can be dressed up for a smart night out, so make sure your wardrobe contains at least one!

Printed Leggings

All too often, curvy girls shy away from prints in case they accentuate any lumps and bumps, but in fact prints can be a hot look for any shape and size. The range of printed leggings out there at the moment is huge, from animal print to floral, and a teaming a pair of these fab leggings with killer heels and a tunic top is a great look for everyone. If you have more curves than most, don’t go for all-over prints; instead choose a plain coloured top with some statement jewellery to accessorize your printed leggings. High heels will make your legs appear longer and slimmer, so choose a pair with the highest heels that you feel comfortable walking in.

photo Peplum-Top_zps93cfd22f.jpg

A Peplum Top

Another great way to accentuate a nipped-in waist is a peplum top, and this style is great for the office, a party or even a casual Sunday brunch. Worn with a pencil skirt, trousers or jeans, peplum tops can by styled up or down and look great on women of all sizes. Don’t be put off by the flared peplum and fret that it’ll emphasize larger hips, in actually camouflages them whilst looking totally on-trend. One thing to get right is to make sure that the waist of the top sits where your actual waist is, otherwise you may lose some of the hourglass effect. Shop around until you find the perfect fit for your body type.

Colour-Blocking

Colour-blocking is using intentionally placed blocks of bright, contrasting colours in your outfit, and looks totally fabulous when done correctly. You don’t want the colours to clash, so think carefully about what colours will complement each other whilst still being different. This trend is the perfect way to draw attention to your favourite areas of your body, whilst playing down your problem areas. Make sure that the bright colours cover the parts you want to highlight, whilst neutral tones hide the parts you want to disguise. A colour-block dress with neutral side panels will give your figure that sexy hourglass shape.

The Wrap Dress

A wrap dress is the perfect go-to dress for shapely girls, and can be worn for any occasion. With their winning combination of cinched-in waist and flattering v-neck, wrap dresses show off your beautiful figure to its best advantage. The tied-in waistline makes women of any size and shape look curvy and fabulous, and a v-neck is great for bigger busts as it draws attention to a great cleavage and elongates the neck. A classic black wrap dress looks great with bright accessories and statement jewellery, but a bold print will also look fantastic.

Whether you’re looking for your own unique style to wear to the office, on a glamorous night out or just for a walk in the park, learning what style best suits your shape is essential for any woman. For those with curves, think nipped-in waists, flattering necklines, clever use of colour as camouflage and showing off your best assets. Play around with different colours, styles and accessories and you’ll have no problems looking sexy and stylish, whatever your size and shape.

 

Bandage Dresses – Tips for Becoming A Fashionable and Unique Presence Among Others Around You

by admin

Let’s be honest, every woman wants to be fashionable all the time and for this reason, they are constantly seeking for the latest fashion trends, purchasing expensive garments that may or may not value their finest physical traits. At this moment, bandage dresses are extraordinarily popular and Kim Kardashian is a living proof of this matter – the way she wears these dresses has captivated everyone’s attention, determining women from all over the world to adopt similar styles and make their outfits even more fashionable.

For women who want to be trendy this fall, the bandage dresses they should choose need to be colored in vivid or meditative shades like samba red, cobalt blue, linden green, turbulence, orange koi, purple acai or, why not, turquoise. These colors are appropriate for any occasion as long as they are fitted properly, so why don’t you try to experience a few combinations before deciding which one is better for you? You can try various color combinations in which turbulence, linden green or samba red are constantly present, because these shades are simply superb, making your body look amazingly well in a carefully hand-picked bandage dress.

You cannot be too stylish when wearing a bandage dress, so you can always try to bring some novelty to your outfit by adding a few nice accessories to it. This fall, oversized accessories are very trendy, so give up tiny pendants in favor of huge ones. What about a tiny belt around your waist, along with an elegant pair of earrings and a nice handbag? Your bandage dress should always be fitted with a small handbag, like the ones manufactured by Chanel – your look will be classy, but très chic!

Emma Watson is surely one of the most appreciated Hollywood celebrities, but the way she wears that pink bandage dress is simply stunning. Pink, not at all revealing and perfectly molded on her body – this is exactly the bandage dress you need for a complete and feminine outfit. If your body is a little bit weighty, avoid revealing your legs too much and focus on your top, which should necessarily include a proper décolletage. Add a nice pair of high heels to your outfit, but try to avoid pencils ones, because they might make your legs appear too thin. Unless this is the effect you want for your overall physical appearance, then you should pick a pair of simple sandals or leather boots, for a plus of authenticity.

Versatility is one of the key aspects of the bandage dress you should opt for. If you are not completely sure which one will fit your body best, then the most appropriate option is looking for a versatile bandage dress that can be fitted to all of your accessories, fashion styles, shoes and, of course, handbags! Maybe a white or light-shaded dress which should cover the upper thigh and slightly reveal your décolletage, or maybe a lace bandage dress that fits your body like a glove. But not matter what choice you make, do not forget your flair – it will complete your outfit and will make you a unique presence among others around you!
