Get Nautical

Nautical Style is a huge trend for the summer ‘10. Who would have that 19^th century French fishermen nautical apparel became to be a fashion statement for the 21^st century. One of my favorite items for this summer trend are striped Nautical Shirts, dresses, and wedges. They look great at fabulous beach parties and for everyday wear. Striped shirts can be found in every retail store this summer. One of my favorite nautical style top is Striped Shark Bite Dolman Tee from Express.com. This top is a great example of  a modern twist on nautical style.

Nautical striped shirts look great on everyone but you have to know what stripes will look great on you. For all my plus size fashionistas, opt for thin horizontal stripes. Horizontal stripes are not great for plus size women. Thick horizontal stripes can make a full figure woman look wide. If you have an hourglass or pear shape than I would suggest wearing thin horizontal stripes. Thick stripes will add width to your figure. These shirts would be great for those who lack curves. Petite women should opt for nautical inspired tank tees. Tank tops look wonderful on petite figures.

My Nautical Picks

• Striped Shark Bite Dolman Tee from Express.com
• HARBOUR Striped Wedge from ASOS.com
• Nautical Jersey Dress by Annie Greenabelle from TopShop.com
• Julius Nautical Tote Women’s Bags (Handbags/Totes) By Paul Frank from Karmaloop.com

Flower Power

Everywhere I turn I see someone in a floral. Floral is a great and easy way to add color to any wardrobe. Floral is huge right now because many designers are using classic 80’s fashion. This is why floral is huge item this season! Floral bottoms are the rage this year. Tiered Skirts, mini dresses and Rompers are key for a perfect summer collection.  I personally enjoy small floral prints on dresses and skirts.

Stay away from floral button up tops. These tops are not the business this year instead look for floral tunics. Tees with large graphic flowers are also great for 2010.  Tank top are not my favor for this print. Tropical inspired floral prints are big on swim wear for this season. Shoes are also donning floral prints. I’m in lust for the pleated t-strap floral print wedge from GoJane.com. They are great examples of floral print shoes gone oh so right!

My Flower Power Picks

• Pleated t-strap floral print wedge from GoJane.com
• Ivette Floral-Print Skirt from Delias.com
• BB Dakota Hadley Romper from Shopbop.com
• Floral Ballet Tunic from Freepeople.com

Because spring is almost here, it’s time to bring out colorful bags and accessories and do away with the dark and neutral colors of the past season. Here are a selection of neon bags that will keep your spring, and even your summer, illuminated, bright and really fun:

The yellow brightness of this bag, which seems to be nearly bright and yellow as the sun, should mean that you will definitely not lose sight of it. The bag is by Charm & Luck.

* Boldly simple lines accented with radiating rows of studs give this Charm and Luck bag — and you — a unique style, and lots of room to carry the things you can’t live without. Neon yellow. Dimensions: 17″L x 9 1/2″W x 10 1/2″H; 10″ drop handle.

This turquoise Badgley Mischka hobo has the color of the sea. It’s so attractively summer and very, very festive. It would be perfect when worn with a white dress or shorts. This bag is available here.

* Bright and cheery patent leather! Details include double braided handles, zip top, zippered center compartment, goldtone hardware and logo plaque, plus lined interior with zip and cell pockets. Dimensions: 11″L x 9″W x 11″H. 4″ handle drop.

This Stalo Markides clutch is great for evening night outs during the spring and summer seasons, such as a resort party. It’s definitely not understated….but you can wear this with something simple, like a long flowing white dress. The clutch is available at LuisaViaroma.

What do you think of this very colorful choices? Are you bold enough to carry them?

Hello all my fashionistas and fashion gurus I have some great news straight from Paris Fashion Week. You know I had to shred some light on the hottest fashion trends on the runway! You know you love! Lets get started shall we…

Givenchy Meets Religion at Paris Fashion Week

Givenchy is add a bit of religion to Paris Fashion week. I love the Jesus references and the simplistic color theory. Givenchy men’s line did not disappoint with great tailored pants and coats with be  great addition to the any man’s closet. I do not like the black tight that was present in the collection but I guess that was for dramatic effect. I just can’t see men wear tights. So for all my fashion forward gents out there, the tailor look is in!Love that tee BTW!

Bride of Frankenstein Meets Classic Equestrian was a Hit for Dior Haute Couture

I am loving the Dior Haute collection by John Galliano. It is fresh with a touch of horror. I love the vest and the fabulous equestrian boots. I thought that the Victorian style can translate into some fab piece in your closet. I would look at the Dior equestrian boots, chunky amber necklaces, and red lipstick! Got to love Dior! I never saw such a wearable Couture collection as separates.

Jean Paul Gaultier has some Fight in Him

Blood, gloves, and scars is not something you would typically describe a Gaultier collection but you will now. I love this collection. The leather jackets in this collection are boss! I have a feeling that hoodies will be integrated into the  every man’s wardrobe from casual to the night life!  I am also seeing that form fitted pants are in. Neutral colors are a big hit for men, no pastels in this collection. I also love the futuristic touches in the collection.  This collection is totally wearable and chic. Motorcycle jackets are always a item to have. Side Note Check out Jean Paul’s leather carry on bag in this collection, very nice and functional!

The Gilt Groupe, which holds sample sales regularly, is where fashionistas go to get the latest must-have items. The site offers everything handbags to gowns, all designer quality, and mostly with name brands and their high noon sale (which starts at noon, of course), have the most valuable discounted prices.

The site is holding this sale until Jan 13th, but unfortunately, in the middle of all of this, one unsatisfied buyer was apparently completely disappointed and left the following feedback or comment — “The COLE HAAN handbag I ordered ISN’T REAL COLE HAAN. I will keep it BUT SHAME ON YOU.”

Gabriela Meriles, the company’s Communications Director has released this statement: “We have already contacted the customer who wrote the initial complaint and are waiting to hear back as to why she believes she has a fake. As we do not work with third parties and deal with all the designers directly we certainly stand behind the product’s authenticity.”

Its CEO, Susan Lyne also assured its online shoppers that the company is not into selling fake merchandise and will treat this as a special case, they will surely watch over.

This is the section where the customer left her message which has sparked a frenzy among the site’s many shoppers.
