With every trend that comes onto the high street, there is always the worry that we might go slightly wrong when we try and put it together.
This season Neons are one of those trends. Too much and it might go wrong, and too little and you may not stand out.
That’s why we were thrilled to find this video on shopping site Very. In the video celebrity stylist Louise Roe offers advice on how to wear this autumn’s brights as well as the best styles for different body shapes.
We feel like we’ve found our own personal stylist. Have a watch and let us know what you think.
It’s that time of the year again. Summer holidays are reaching an end and the schools are going back meaning there will be more traffic on the road and longer commuting times.
But it’s not all bad news, as the Autumn season begins to approach it means it’s time to update that work wardrobe and get a new outfit or two.
We have a look at some of the key pieces to keep you going through until at least December.
Gossip Girl fashion infused with a little bit of rock ‘n roll? That’s my favorite style. So I’m all about the looks in this video from Ford Models TV, how about you? Making me want to wear my rnew ocker chic booties everywhere. Maybe I will.
So have you figured out what you are going to wear for Valentines Day yet? Before you run to your favorite lingerie department and buy the first red bra and thong set you see … heed these words of wisdom … try before you buy.
Most of us are wearing the wrong size bra; 8 out of 10 of us, to be exact. Getting fit for a bra is oh-so-easy and will make you look and feel fabulous. Whether it is for under your Valentine’s Day outfit or possibly is your entire Valentine’s Day outfit, you will look your best if the girls are lifted and supported.
If your bra looks like a necklace–you know, when your bra rides up your back and the girls head south in front (which is just so wrong)–it will make you look old and tired instead of the gorgeous goddess that you really are.
The affects of Givenchy’s fall 08 chain dresses are still being felt, so you can find something like this Forever 21 chain trim tunic, $19.80, everywhere. It’s perfect for pairing with Goldsign’s super-stretchy Misfit slim leg jeans, $218. Thanks to 35% four-way stretch, the denim is likened to the feel of leggings. And what to wear with your dark wash skinny jeans but a tough-chic bootie. We chose Steve Madden’s Slasssh bootie, $199.95, even though we’re generally opposed to open-toed boots in winter. But, what better way to show off the new Chanel nail colors we’re all coveting? Top it all off with this Jimmy Choo Eva leather clutch, $1,170 to remind everyone you’ve got class.
Tis the season for tailgating, homecoming and hitting those bleachers for your favorite team. Well, none of us here know too much about any of that, but so we hear.
If you’re more of a sporty sort, we’ve got an outfit pick for you that doesn’t slouch on style Especially if you’re a fan of the newly crowned World Champion Phillies. But since most sports teams’ colors fall into the primary wheel, it would be easy to sub out your favorite team’s hue.
As fashion becomes more accessible to the masses, so do the techniques employed by celebrities and fashionistas with money to burn.
Look books, once only for designers and couture customers are becoming more and more ubiquitous. Since cataloging your entire wardrobe could be overwhelming and time-consuming, we talked to stylist Stacey Mayesh about how to start simple with a look book for your summer vacation.
As we were lamenting last week’s heat wave in the northeast, reader Jessie from Seattle pointed out that not everyone’s summers are so sultry. So, we decided to put together an outfit for the cooler areas of the country, or for an evening like we’re having tonight with cool breezes. This retro outfit is fun and colorful, perfect for a summer party.
The sun is shining and birds are singing, so we wanted to bring you a bright spring outfit to go along with the weather. Pairing a circle skirt with a more fitted top and flats creates a fun flirty silhouette. Read on to see where each piece is from.
You watch shows like Tim Gunn’s Guide To Style and What Not To Wear on a loop, read all the latest fashion magazines, and could give a rundown on runway trends to rival Nina Garcia. You’ve got your rules down, shop with the best of them, and edit your wardrobe like it’s headed for Vogue.
So what’s between you and that head-to-toe polished, customized look that celebs and socialites seem to effortlessly effuse? A good tailor. Garment care expert Jerry Pozniak from Jeeves NY gives us the inside scoop on getting a fabulous fit.
We’ve sort of had a design crush on Alice Temperley since her line for Target allowed us to infuse our wardrobe with elements reminiscent of her main line. This week Refinery 29 talked to the Brit and got the scoop on her top 5 style must haves.
1. red lipstick
2. fitted black jackets
3. large cocktail rings
4. long evening dresses
5. heels
It’s easy to take a page from Temperley’s book of style with items already in your wardrobe, so go get styling.
This Victoria’s Secret 7-in-1 curvy jersey dress could be the answer to many a “nothing to wear!” dilemma. If you can figure out how to fashion it, that is. There are instructions on the site, but kind of like all the articles telling us we could wear the same sarong every day of our vacation without anyone knowing, it might be easier read than done. It might take an evening at home practicing before you can master the seven different styles, but in great bright colors for spring, this dress might be worth the trouble. The best thing is that while it’s always sexy, you can make it appropriate for work, for a date, or the beach. That’s versatile.
A launch party in NYC should have four things: cocktails, cupcakes, at least one person sporting a Rihanna/Katie Holmes bob and a D-list celeb. Last night, this and more all went down at the “Gossip Girl”-like department store Henri Bendel for fashion writer Susan Redstone’s new style book, “Just Try it On!”
Redstone’s adorable 12-month guide gives smart and affordable shopping and fashion tips. Each chapter is dedicated to a different tip and month, from January’s “Your Fashion Emergency Kit” to December’s “Holiday Style and Gift Giving.”
When asked to spill a tip, Redstone picked from November and said, “avoid visible panty lines by taking Polaroids of yourself before a big red carpet event.”
Put on by PR powerhouse Lizzie Grubman, the event was well attended including Lizzie herself, along with one sure shocker (but appropriately titled for the event) from VH1’s “I Love New York,” Tailor Made.
