Juicy summer fashion and trends spring/summer 2008
Well guys, I would not call myself a fashion slave cause I believe one should take inspiration, but create your own style. If you ask me people who claim to be fashionistas but take help from a stylist are hypocrites...Bloody hell if you can't pick out your own clothes then you should not portray yourself as a fashion icon! I am so tried of bubblehead Nicole Richie or the Simpson sisters and what ever there faces are.
Fashion should be comfortable and improve the way you look and keep your beautiful ass warm when it is cold and sexy when you are hitting the clubs or you just wanna look good for your sweetheart. First of all you should always dress after the occasion and also dress to fit your body type. If you are short or tall ,voluptuous or skinny dress to impress, don't squeeze in to a two sizes pair of small jeans when you obviously going to look like a stuffed sausage or wear a tent when your a short ass.
This is some pointers on how to look fabulous this promising summer, are you ready!
Light, airy long-dresses and long, flowing skirts, comfortable and easy to wear. Think a more modern hippie approach, but please stay away from looking like a milking made from a different century.
The maxi dress makes a real statement this season in classy and casual styles. Flowing, drapes with pleats and ruffles and one-shoulder necklines. Remember though if you are shorter opt for something that does not make you tumble and fall when you walk, wear hells, wedges to give some hight and you will look fantastic and if you are tall congrats you dont ned to do more then look fab.
Two-sleeved styles are given the cold-shoulder by many designers. Zac Posen, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Proenza Schouler and J Mendel in favor of an off-the-shoulder look.
Be aware if you dont have fantastic shoulders opt for a nother style than this since it might give the reversed effect. Trouser suits follow the feminine, floaty theme with Asian fisherman style pants (Phillip Lim) and elegant flowing trousers. Some are influenced by the African safari, like Diane Von Furstenberg’s classic white ensemble.
Accessorize with hippie chick headbands and headscarves . Safaris style white hats match the desert inspired look and large totes and make a big fashion statement love the ethnic look and always find cool neclases and bracelets in seconhandshop or markets. More posh approach is to mix it up with some Hermes bracelets or a cartier ring.
Belts are everywhere and if you got a tiny waist then by all means show it by using a big or small belt. Red-hot color features heavily in Oscar De La Renta gowns, Zac Posen’s ruffle maxi, and the Marc Jacobs Lady in Red, belted shift. Ohne Titel’s flappy, flowing trouser suit enthuses energy and cheerfulness in its invigorating red. Purple is in and dusty pink, emerald green and mustard green are a eyepopping and funky.
Tropical flavors, big and bold as in Caronlena Herrara’s ruffle maxi or Diane von Furstenberg’s flowing green-floral print. Tribal Prints make a big comeback. Blacks and tans, as in Diane von Furstenberg’s strappy tunic dress or Oscar De La Renta’s Tribal puff ball mini. A few leopard prints are thrown in for good measure, following the tribal and jungle theme. One thing though if you are a sexy but voluptuous girl stay away from aggressive and big prints and go for something more subtle.
The colors are brighter, reflecting the true concept of spring and dresses are more prevalent this season, with a real mix of sophistication, a hint of '80s retro and long-floaty maxis reminiscent of the '60s and '70s.
When it comes to swimwear select a piece that suits your body type, it might look fab on Gisele Bundchen but it might not work for me and you so think I look sexy and dress according to you butt and boobs. Asymmetry is a keynote style seen in many of next season’s dresses and soon to be released summer swimwear.
Oh Yeah one more thing the whole I don't eat and do diet pills look was never in so why don't somebody feed Kate Bosworth and the rest of the lollipop gals . Girls need to understand slim and being malnourished are two different bloody things and I like my movie stars with some meat on the bones.
This months fashion disasters are as follows, Victoria Beckham (she was never in, money don't by style,taste does) Paris Hilton need to take a look in the mirror, Barbie is just a doll sweetheart. Donatella Versace...Holy mother, she is a fashion designer but she looks like Bride of Frankenstein...Mischa Fartone are she on mushrooms or what, I just dont get it, she needs to learn the basics of dressing for sure...thats just wacked what she is wearing.
Fashion is not to be serious but make other people that you are....Some designer I use to be
a fan of has some serious bad ass collections, Dolce & Gabbana what the hell I did not like any of there stuff this time Cavalli is repeating himself and Gucci is boring. To mainstream folks I guess you cant please them all but they should try, the prices they charge...We gals have to speak up!!!
Gladiator sandals are still hot and looks yummy sandals with rein stones are cute and give princess feet but pedicure before wearing them is a must.
