What to wear when you're at 30’s – a fashion statement.
Have you ever thought about it, what looks stylish and what doesn’t when you cross the 30’s.
I don’t signify there’s something like "rules" but I think there are things that -even if you have a nice body to pull them off, it begin to look kinda when you grow up.
I don’t signify there’s something like "rules" but I think there are things that -even if you have a nice body to pull them off, it begin to look kinda when you grow up.
I came across the comments like “long hair looks bad over 30”, but I really don’t think so... It is odd how opinion changes. When you’re 20 you are sure what a 30 something shouldn’t wear, but when you are there you begin to wonder, as you don’t see yourself really different, but everybody’s insight about you really does.
I personally believe in,
“Someone who accepts their age is more appealing than someone who tries to dress younger.”
In a magazine I noted some thing related to this,
Early 30's need not to bother about it so much. But......after the age of 34 (this seems to be THE year where it all starts) you need to actually take a look at yourself. Liz Hurley could pull off what she wore in her early 30's but now she’s 39........she just cant in the way she used to, it looks sort of wannabe young again even though its only a few years difference.
And I finally go with the words of my friend, in fact you may too agree with it,
“You look younger it’s a rather pitiful compliment.
You look great! That’s a great one...” (In the sense of dressing)
You look great! That’s a great one...” (In the sense of dressing)

Tom Ford's spring/summer 2012 collection
Tom Ford's fashion shows are 'invite only' events, which means it's perfectly feasible that the only names on the guest list are a few stuffed toys whose lack of live-blogging capabilities means the designer has another two months to actually get his collection finished. Obviously that would never happen though, never.
So, two months after fashion week, Tom Ford has debuted his spring summer 2012 collection on Vogue.com. In the best possible way, it's exactly what we expected, which makes all the cloak and dagger business a bit pointless. We've got ultra-lux form-fitting dressed with clinched waists, bondage-esque corsets, satin suits in his trademark purple, which frankly we're surprised Cadburys hasn't tried to trademark.
Talking about the collection, Ford said:
"I want to do classic clothes. I don’t want to do trendy collections that swing around from season to season. I want to do things that will stay in a woman’s wardrobe a long time—quite ‘forever’ pieces. So I’m looking for consistency."
Quite. We think Ford is at his best when he's putting Nicholas Hoult in an angora sweater for A Single Man. Let's hope there's some truth in the rumour that he could be doing an H&M collaboration then.

Something for fashion lover's this winter.
I think it would be their fashion trend for this winter. I don’t know what to call these but I've seen them at many fashion shows so far...Nearly a thick scarf or muff around the neck that more or less looks like it's holding their head up...
This new interpretation of the circle scarves would appear everywhere this winter. And it looks dead luxurious and endulgent! The closest thing to this would be American apparel circle scarf...The fur versions are definitely more eye catching though.
What I adore about a muff is that you can wear them as a neck accessory. There is a fine line between a muff and a short scarf. It all depends on how it is used.

Successful fashion models with imperfect teeth and teeth fashion trends.
Fashion and beauty are not constant one. They vary on each individual’s vision; a fashion liked by one might not be liked by others. So, here I put my thought,
I actually find models (and people in general) with imperfect teeth, but they really look sexy. It gives them personality and character. I can think of a few models like Lara Stone, Lauren, Hutton, Romina lanaro, Adriana Lima, Louise P and many more. And I think they did not make any measures to make it perfect. They deserves for what they worked. It gives unique identity for them.
And in Japan it is called yaeba. Women are paying dentist to craft their teeth crooked. They take it as a fashion trend. There are few famous fashion models with crooked teeth in Japan.

For the Spring/Summer 2012 season, Porsche Design is featuring color in the Women's Fashion Collection. The dominant colors are striking Sulphur and fresh Raspberry. The product range has also been considerably extended, including not only leather jackets and exclusive Premium Jeans but also fashionable silk scarves and silk blouses.
Introduced in Autumn/Winter 2011, the innovative RawTec Line has been advanced and embodies the maxims of Porsche Design perfectly in a timeless and purist manner. Thanks to the use of full-grain lambskin leather, with nappa finish on the inside, these leather jackets need no lining at all. Visually impressive as a result, they are also particularly comfortable to wear especially in the summer months. The secret lies in the top-quality workmanship and the exceptionally fine finish, clear proof of the importance of the smallest detail in the manufacturing philosophy, avoiding any doubling of the material. The leather is laid seam on seam, stitched with a zig zag finish, and then welded with a tape, creating a unique lightness as well as the purist look. For women, the new Summer Collection not only has the P'1140 RawTec Blazer to offer, but also the leather coat-skirt combination, the P'1150 RawTec Coat, and the leather P'1150 Hoody, a real eye-catcher in the feminine raspberry colour tone.

Simpson sisters debut line
While Jessica Simpson has been in the news a lot lately for her (just confirmed) pregnancy, she and sister Ashlee have been working on another baby - their new clothing line for tween girls. The pair will visit Belk in Crabtree Valley Mall on Saturday (1-4 p.m.) to debut the collection and meet fans. The new line builds upon the coats and shoes for girls offered through the Jessica Simpson label, and features a mix of Jessica's girl-next-door charm and Ashlee's rocker aesthetic.
"We want to inspire young girls to have fun and express their personality and creativity through fashion," says Ashlee in an interview with the sisters via email.
Britain’s best-dressed women - Kate Middleton.
Fashion experts from the UK edition of American fashion magazine Harper’s Bazaar have crowned the Duchess of Cambridge as the best-dressed woman of Britain in 2011. The judges were told to choose 20 women who represented British style and Kate(fashion model and actress) headed the list that included Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine, actresses Andrea Riseborough, Keira Knightley and Tilda Swinton, model Kate Moss, Prime Minister David Cameron’s wife Samantha and fashion designer Stella McCartney.
“Catherine’s incredible style evolution has gripped us all,” the panel of judges said. A Global Language Monitor survey in August had said that London had overtaken New York as the world’s fashion capital for 2011 and the Will-Kate royal wedding had a big role to play in this.
“She gave us the year’s, if not the century’s, most thrilling fashion moment,” said Lucy Yeomans, editor of the Harper’s Bazaar.

Kate Bosworth, Dianna Agron: 'Vogue' CFDA Fashion Show and Tea
Kate Bosworth, Dianna Agron, Olivia Wilde, Riley Keough, and many more attended this year's Vogue CFDA Fashion Fund Show and Tea. The event, hosted by celebrity hairstylist Frederic Fekkai and Lisa Love, took place at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.
Kate, who sat front and center, as this year's CFDA finalists showcased their creations, wore head-to-toe Proenza Schouler. It was the usual mix-and-match look from Kate as she wore a yellow, midriff-baring top with zebra print, and a belted, brown wrap skirt. The best parts of Kate's look were her updo and make-up.
Glee star Dianna Agron, like Kate Bosworth, went for something printed for the event. Dianna looked lovely in the black-and-white textured dress from Libertine. The sleeveless number had bold, black trim, and quite a revealing neckline. Black pumps and a fabulous wavy bob completed Dianna's outfit.
Other standouts at the Vogue CFDA Fashion Fund Show were Olivia Wilde, who topped her floaty, pink dress with a red coat, Michelle Monaghan in a body-con Altuzarra color-block skirt, and Busy Phillips in a mint green number.

A fashion show for the ages

APPLETON It was a case of serious déjà vu and chuckles for many of the models waiting to flounce down the catwalk at Sunday's Vintage Fashion Show.
"The mini skirts, I definitely do remember that," said Mary Elson, remembering the wild patterns and bright colors she wore in the 1970s as a young woman.
Representing that decade for the event, she wore a long-sleeved, turquoise cocktail dress with silver embroidery and matching silver pumps and observed, "My mother might have worn it."
The biennial fashion show is a fundraiser for the Community Clothes Closet, a nonprofit providing free clothes to people in need.
The show reviews styles from the 1940s to the 1980s. Think floral and psychedelic patterns, high waists, big sunglasses, bell-bottoms, hot pants, eyelet shift dresses, cardigans, jumpsuits and plaid slacks, all in one place.
The event raises between $15,000 and $20,000 for the nonprofit, whose clientele continues to grow year after year. The success of the show is a must to keep the doors open, said Diane Bishop, Community Clothes Closet executive director.
The nonprofit has an annual budget of about $230,000. Last year, it served more than 16,000 people, a significant increase from 2009, when it served 11,500.
"This is the only time that we ever sell anything because we know our clients would not wear these clothes," she said.
The fashion show packed a ballroom at the Radisson Paper Valley Hotel, and 48 models hustled to slip in and out of their period attire.
Several of them are connected to the nonprofit through family or work or are longtime friends of Bishop.
"I was the first one out today during the 1940s in a wool bathrobe. I went out with three women wearing their cooking attire, and I was in the 'go-get-the-newspaper' attire," said Paul Cameron, executive director of The Family, Christian radio stations that includes WEMI-FM 91.9. "I've got four times I've got to go through yet, so I've got a couple more eras."
Cameron has participated in the past five fashion shows put on by the nonprofit. But he was not in his comfort zone during Sunday's 1960s segment. Organizers had picked for him a crimson smoking jacket, ascot and pipe. His four companions on the runway were showing off negligees.
"I got the approval of my cohorts as suave and styling," he joked about his look.
Leslie Asare of Appleton thought her three daughters, Lexi, 11, Olivia, 9, and Isabella, 7, would need more coaxing to get involved with the show. But they were handling the pressure well in their maxi dresses.
"We are not going to be professional models or anything, but we're doing it for the charity," she said.
Scott Resch of Appleton soaked in the atmosphere in his laid-back, hippie piece and black wig.
"Everything was more carefree. Everybody was just about love and enjoying one another," he said.
The show brought a flood of memories for some.
"I was of the era of the mini skirt and the empire waist and the bell bottoms," said Gail Bergner of Menasha. "But I'm so glad we don't have to wear dresses all the time anymore, and that we can be sloppy in jeans and T-shirts."
Elson smoothed out her turquoise dress before getting in line with the rest of the models. She thinks clothes from decades past were more fun, at least more than the present one.
"There were less rules. The colors were fantastic. The lengths went up and down, extremely short, to middy, and then maxi. Shoulder pads and then no shoulder pads," she said.
"Today's styles are more conservative. People are more serious now. There are wars all over the place. I think it's a more serious time. There's also a big shortage of money right now."
