Trophy Jackets Versus Trophy Girlfriends

February 1, 2010 at 12:26 am (News) (, , , )

Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana have an online magazine called Swide, which is of course yet another marketing device to sell their clothes.

They’ve taken to their blog to try to sell statement jackets, a key piece of their spring 2010 men’s collection. It’s a hard sell for most straight men, and we’re not sure this argument will be powerful enough to persuade them:

Who needs to bother with trophy girlfriends? Dolce & Gabbana’s SS10 array of great embellished jackets means you can forego the hassle of dating and make your blazer your best spokesperson.

… Light and chic or dark and interesting, you can be all sorts of men this season. Varying your pleasures: go for fail-safe baroque or conversational black and white. Getting lonely with your great jacket collection? Not a concern anyway, the trophy jacket is your best ally to find that trophy girlfriend!

Except that a guy who has a collection of jackets that are this … fussy is bound to be fussy about all kinds of stuff. Most chicks probably don’t want to date a guy who spends longer in the bathroom tweezing his eyebrows and putting on cheek highlighter than they do. And people with that much time on their hands just aren’t having that much sex.

Statement jewelry, such as huge rings, have been turning heads. It seems that jewelry for spring 2010 is all about the bold and edgy.

Whenever there is such statement jewelry, it’s important to style it conservatively, which means have one piece outshine the other elements of the outfit. If wearing a huge chain bracelet, complement it with a more basic outfit.

Amanda Seyfried – Her Fashion Secrets and Beauty Must-Haves

January 24, 2010 at 12:55 am (News) (, , )

Amanda Seyfried Shares Her Fashion Secrets and Beauty Must-Haves!

We’ve already seen Amanda Seyfried sing with Meryl Streep in Mamma Mia and get gory with Megan Fox in Jennifer’s Body, and now Lucky’s newest cover-girl is taking a break from her busy film career to share a few of her favorite things.

When it comes to fashion, the actress doesn’t hesitate in revealing her top picks:

“I love Stella McCartney and Alexander Wang,” she says.

“But I’m much more likely to buy leggings or drop-crotch sweatpants from them than an elaborate, low-cut piece. They both make casual clothes that have a little something extra going on–which is what I want.”

And while the ethereal actress typically prefers a light touch when it comes to makeup, she has learned to play up her natural glow.

“Benefit blushes are so easy to blend.

They work great on me because they create a subtle flush against my pale complexion.”

As for mascara, the star’s favorite, Maybelline Great Lash, is as budget-friendly as it is high-performance.

“It goes on clean and thick and doesn’t clump when I curl my lashes after applying it–and it’s inexpensive!”

So many women have beautiful grey eyes and choosing the right makeup for them is not difficult. But of course there are some important details you might not know about.

When selecting the pallete for your shadows take into account your skin color type and think of the effect you want to achieve. So, if you are a warm type and you wish to accentuate your eyes your choice should be limited to golden, bronze, and sand colors. In case you want to focus on the complexion opt for shadows and eyeliners of cold tones: green, turquoiuse, blue, aqua, violet and rosy.

How To Wear Chunky Heels

November 12, 2009 at 12:07 am (Fashion) ()

When chunky heels were popular in the 90’s, we wore them with everything. Now, the general rule of thumb is to wear chunky heels as a contrast to a slim-fitting outfit.

Pants

Chunky heels under boot-cut jeans is just too clunky. When you wear chunky heels, your pants should stop at your ankle or slimly cover only the top edge of your heel.
Wear chunky heels with skinny jeans, leggings or cropped pants.
