2009’s Woman of Style is Lady Gaga

Screen shot 2009-12-28 at 6.45.55 AM

Let’s face it, no matter how eccentric she looked, 23 year old Stefani Germanotta, otherwise known as Lady Gaga, was this year’s fashion toast. The fashion maverick didn’t hesitate to dare to be different. She would wear clothes made from any type of materials, including the kitchen sink. She would wear odd-looking shoes that would otherwise be a killer on the feet. She made it all work for her and made use of this to her advantage. Everywhere she is, people took notice. It did help that her danceable songs are as eccentric as she is. Everything complemented with her image.

Lady Gaga not only wore the kookiest of clothes, she had help from famous designers for this. Marc Jacobs and Alexander McQueen were two of those and the relationship worked the other way around, as these designers were also inspired by her odd taste and style.

Admittedly, had Stefani Germanotta veered away from this kind of style, she wouldn’t have lasted in an industry that constantly changes. How she dresses up is part of her success. It is part of the packaging.

China Loves Their Luxury Goods

Screen shot 2009-12-28 at 8.38.06 AM

Roberto Polet of the Gucci Group has said that China is fast emerging as the largest market for luxury consumer goods. Wealthy Chinese businessmen and their lady partners have given the luxury goods industry a much needed boost, that many high end fashion brands are looking into this market with a lot of consideration. China currently consumes about 1/4 of the total market, with many Chinese travelers making it a point to make their purchases overseas. Many of these traveling shoppers are the newly-affluent Chinese businessmen, their wives and their children. The familiar high end name brands apparently give them a boost in their newly enjoyed social status.

With this latest development, China could overtake USA in the next few years, when it comes to luxury goods purchases.

Turquoise is 2010’s Color

According to Pantone, a company that supplies fashion decors to many stores, Turquoise is touted as the color for 2010 and insiders of fashion do not disagree with this. Its universal appeal and its tropical fashion flavor makes turquoise very appealing. Whether you are going to actually be in a resort hideaway or not…wearing turquoise does seem to feel that you are always on vacation. The color should also help transcend some positivity, joy, escapism and freshness, which is what many people are looking forward to for next year.

Here are some tips about wearing turquoise for next year’s fashion:

  • Although turquoise is very bright, it’s not too loud or too distractive. In the summer seasons, you can wear turquoise with white or blend it with some yellows and greens or oranges. In the colder months, you can wear it with darker colors, such as navy or black, for a year-round wardrobe ensemble.
  • At home, you can liven up the place using turquoise paint. Painting one side of the room should brighten it up. Turquoise accessories and room knick knacks when blended with darker wood furniture should pop out and help bring the room alive. Use lamps and tableskirts in shade of turquoise for a luxe looking ambience.
  • If you would like to wear turquoise make-up though, make sure to blend this with a darker teal color, as turquoise alone would be too scary.

Bolero Bustier Gown
Sparkling beadwork and lush lace makes this flyaway silk gown and matching bolero truly spectacular.

The empire cut and the bolero to this lovely bustier gown hides the bulges away and gives an illusion that the curves are all in the right places. Plus I like how simplistic but very elegant this dress is.

Firstly the main mistake people make at this time of the year is thinking its all glitz and glamour when it isnt, your going to look pretty silly in your very sparkly dress, shoes and hairdo while in a quiet restaurant having dinner to think about it. Avoid to much glitter and shine, otherwise you will be standing out and for the wrong reasons!

Another problem is having the wrong outfit at the wrong occasion, your in a fancy dress in a quiet restaurant and worn pants at a cocktail party, it happens to the best of us. Why not have one main outfit for the holiday season, could be a beautiful red, black dress or pants which you can dress up or down depending on the occasion. That way you are all set no matter the night or day in question, that’s the smart ladies choice.

Finally just relax and have fun, go with what you feel be sure to stand out and be unique. Just make sure your always dressed to impress, it is Christmas time after all the season of fashion so lets hope all the fashion errors you see over the month are someone else’s after reading this! Enjoy!

Steve Madden Screwed!

Steve Madden’s knock-offs are getting quite popular with those that like to wear fashionable items but cannot really afford the high-priced originals. Steve Madden is a favorite among those who love the “look for less”. However, the designer isn’t so well-loved by those whose ideas were copied from.

Balenciaga is suing the designer for copying their lego-heeled shoe collection, which was introduced to the market in 2007.

Screen shot 2009-12-21 at 6.14.17 AM

The suit was filed last Tuesday in New York. On the paper submitted to the courts, it says: “Defendant Steve Madden’s reputation for producing knock-offs of full price luxury designs further corroborates Defendant’s deliberate pattern of willful infringement and unfair competition.”

Early this year, Alexander McQueen also sued the designer for the same offense.

Dressing Like Gaga…

Screen shot 2009-12-21 at 6.01.34 AM

Would you want to make a grand entrance at your friend’s New Year’s Eve party? Or you just really want all the attention and have decided to come dressed as Lady Gaga, voted as the most popular person on the Internet for 2009?

Her outfits are outrageous, I’m sure everyone agrees. The clothes are one of a kind and not retail material. So, it would be quite harder to find her style at boutiques and other fashion stores.

Not quite so, though…as Not Just Label has put for sale some of the Gaga’s clothes and accessories. The company has partnered with other designers, who have actually dressed Lady Gaga, so that you can also buy similar fashion Gaga items.

Of course, the outfits and accessories do not come relatively cheap. In fact, some of it are priced just as outrageously as Gaga’s style. However, you would be surprised at how much faster they are selling. Some items are already sold out, in fact. There’s a market for Gaga-rageous style out there, indeed!

Francista Bibb Necklace
An afternoon at an antique-trimmings store turned up a delicate fragment of 19th-century crocheted rosettes–imagining them at a champagne ball lit up with crystal chandeliers, we designed an exquisite, opulent, hand-sewn necklace in a Victorian palette.

This antique looking bib necklace is another Victorian inspired accessory that’s made of metal and glass. It’s a lot more sophisticated than the first one though, a lot more fancier. Price is a $77.
