TREND ALERT: VIXENS IN VELVET


What is it about velvet that makes it so irresistible? Is it the seductive allure that it gives off? The sense of Gothic romanticism the wearer gets? Or is it because it feels like the fur of some mystical creature? 

I really can't choose! Velvet has always been a favorite of mine. Designers and fashion houses like Gucci, Lanvin, Dolce&Gabbana and Versace have created timeless looks using this magical fabric. 

Velvet used to be big sometime around the 18th Century. Now, its even bigger and we are absolutely loving it! 

Bring out the vixens in velvet please!

TREND ALERT: PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC

Animal rights activists and environmentalists have always found fashion as an abomination. But, you can't really blame them for this since the use of real fur in coats has become a major problem.

However, fashion has yet again spawned another brilliant idea. This time one that'll actually do good for the environment. Okay, so all you hear these days is how you should take your own paper/cloth bag to the grocery store and not use plastic bags. But since most people don't REALLY care about the environment, they just end up using plastic bags, but then after a week's worth of grocery shopping, you end up with a pile of plastic bags. And then you think to yourself, 'What the hell am I gonna do with all this plastic?'

The answer is really simple. You obviously turn them into clothes silly! That's right, plastic has become a major trend this year, and might possibly be big next year too.

Designers are turning plastic into every single type of clothing imaginable; skirts, trenches, boots, handbags, coats and totes. You name it, and they have it.

Not only does this solve the plastic usage epidemic, but it keeps you looking ultra futuristic and chic as well.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!


Hey everyone! How did your Halloween go? What did you dress up as? Well, whatever you answer may be, I hope you had fun. If you wanna dress up as something that isn't a little bit cliche' like a Vampire or Werewolf, I recommend you take a look at Michelle Phan's makeup tutorials. Now, if you don't know who she is (which I presume to be highly unlikely) I suggest you Google her because her work is Amazing.

Well, enough talk, here, watch the video.

Happy Halloween!
