After a relaxing summer its time to get motivated and prepare for going back to school. Lead the halls with your sun kissed skin and the latest back to school fashion trends. Fall means cooler weather so layering is popular this year. Think denim jeans, over-sized shirts, and flat leather boots. Leggings can easily replace any pair of jeans.

In addition to boots, solid colored flats resembling ballet slippers are cute and will keep your toes warm. Converse are great for school too. If you are in a warmer location or hoping to wear a heel then peep toed stilettos are best.

If you are interested in a bold look then Vogue suggests wearing shirts with higher neck lines. Graphic T’s are still in style. Chunky jewelry is preferable for accessorizing. Baseball caps and rhinestones work marvelously for a chic punk rocker look.

Purple was everywhere at the start of the last school year and we are loving it for shoes and accessories this year. keep your eyes open for deep purple hobo bags. Large purses are perfect for school and fashion because they look great and they have multifunctional pockets. Jessica Simpson has stunning bags for Fall. Check out her fashion forward runway satchel bag in purple and brown tote below.

High fashion purses can be expensive. If you can’t afford Jessica Simpson or another name brand, then it is best to search for a similar item opposed to racking up credit card bills. Reference this student debt guide to avoid credit debt. Many pricey high fashion items can be imitated by making purchases at affordable stores. When wearing over-sized shirts or layering items, complete the look with a thick belt. Wider is better. Solid black and brown belts will tie up any outfit.

For jewelry this season, vintage is the way to go. Vintage jewelry is elegant and always trendy. Jewelry is the final touch to completing the perfect outfit. Don’t get carried away. If wearing something bold, choose chunky pieces. If the look is more basic, try to find a petite gold necklace. Typically the longer the better.

What Looks Best Backwards

admin — Sun, 19 Sep 2010 09:40:37 +0000

After Angelina Jolie’s stint at wearing a Max Azira Gown backwards during the SAG awards in 2009, this year it was Amanda Seyfried who took to the premier of a film in a backward worn cocktail dress. And now wearing backwards is the high profile line from Kate moss whose sprint/summer collection in which Kate moss wore the Romper backwards so that the black buttons look contrasting to the plain top.
It’s surprising that how these models wear these clothes backwards since there is no room for boobs made in the back of dresses, which are specifically sewn for the breasts and bra to accommodate. Hence a fair bit of tailoring is required for proper alteration to already sewn dresses so that they can fit perfectly and not fall off or show a boob on the back of the models and actresses. It’s easier for the tailors to design and tailor a completely new dress in the time taken to alter an already designed dress with buttons in the front.

Although John Gallianio’s love for bras, negligees and paties is well known, it was surprising to see that it was missing in the collection showcased in Shangai. The event was arranged in Shangai on Saturday to coincide with the city’s new flagship Dior Boutique. It showcased some of Gallianos’ famed collection that he has delivered in sometime. The people who came to see the famed designer’s collection of bras and panties were left disappointed as the designer showcased just one pair of panties-shorts on the runway. It was mostly pink and purple dresses designed keeping in mind a good girl Barbie and keeping the Shangai dressing style in mind. Recently when Karl Lagerfeld showcased in Shanghai, his collection was locally inspired and targeted the locals with modest and traditionally inspired designs that received a huge appreciation. Thou Galliano’s intent was solely on keeping things French inspired. Galliano expressed his need to understand the emerging market such as China and become a big player in the fashion world where the zeal to understand the craftsmanship, couture and savoir faire Francais is huge.
