look at her hair!

Being blonde for years I have had trouble keeping my natural colored roots from showing, but lately I have noticed a new trend in hair styles for spring/summer 2011, Everyone seems to have really dark roots and blonde on the ends. (I wish that would have started before I dyed my hair dark brown...) It started with all the female celebrities but now every where I go it seems to be an evolving trend, which I find very fashionable and edgy. There are ways to make it very suttle or it can stand out and be very noticeable depending on your fashion style.

Another fashion trend in hair colors is dyeing your hair crazy bright colors! It's not for the average person, you will have to be a very outgoing person to have the courage to take on this fashion trend! I have seen everything from bright red hair to just a suttle streak of pink. I wish that i could pull this look off but it doesnt really go with my style. I think it's a great look to pull for the summer season! Maybe I will try it as long as it is the kind i can wash out!!!

Fashion Trends for women...and Men?

Men are finally embracing the feminine trends we have been trying to get them to do for years, but how much is too much?

So I have noticed that trends for women and men are merging together, it has become hard to tell a straight man from a gay man! I have been seeing men getting pedicures, maniures, and facials very frequently the past year. I remember when I would beg my guy friends to go with me for mani/pedis and they just were not having it! I guess really we (women) shouldn't complain, I mean we HAVE been waiting years for the day when our boyfriends were asking US to go get mani/pedis, facials, etc with them!

 On a quick side note lets talk about makeup, I get my makeup done at MAC often and personally, I think I would rather a male apply it. Everyone should take a trip to the mall and just look around at how fashion for men is evolving I guarantee at every makeup counter you will see at least one male makeup artist. (they are wearing the makeup as well)

I guess it's about time for men to enjoy taking care of their body, but is there a line that should not be crossed? I mean I get it go relax and have your nails done, but should you really get the clear polish as well?

Enough about fashion hygiene...how about the lastest fashion trends for men? We have wedged shoes, skirts, jewelry, and handbags for  men to wear. I know that a lot of straight guys, at least where I am                      from, would never be caught dead in a skirt and especially wouldn't walk around carrying a murse! But it's very much on the fast track to stardum...all men expect us to hold there things when we go out "Hey do you have any chapstick?" or "Will you put this in your bag?" why dont you carry your own bags...all the celebrities are doing it ;)

A few of my favorite designers are designing mens wear and it looks like the inspiration is coming from womens wear and the same goes for woman. We are wearing "boyfriend jeans" and "mens blazers"

                                                                             Prada

                                                                          Dsquared

Calvin Klein

All im trying to say is, clearly the line between whats acceptable for mens fashion and womens fashion is dissolving...I think it's great! Guys should be able to wear and do the latest fashions and feel comfortablein it. We are in the 21st Century people!!

Spring Fashions of 2011

I have noticed a lot of new trends for the spring season of 2011, Im going to talk about my three favorite: leopard print, part platform/part wedged shoes, floral prints. I was walking down town in savannah on broughton street and everything i see has leopard print!! Not everyone can pull of a full leopard print dress but I personnal love a little touch of it on shoes, a belt, or even a leopard print cardigan; but wearing to much of it can be over whelming for my taste. In my opinion a grat way to add a little lepard to a classy outfit would be a red pair of shorts, wedged leopard print shoes, and a basic black tee. Simple yet trendy!

Another big spring trend this season is wedged/platform shoes, it's probably my favorite trend of them all because i LOVE shoes! These unique wedges have a very edgy look and are a little more comfortable than regular wedges and are much easier to walk in. Michael Kors has always been my favorite designer, I love how he incorporates creative trends into something classy and sophisticated yet, a very fashionable look. Another one of my very favorite shoe designers is Jeffrey Campbell, he is known for his wild and very out there creations.

Floral prints are also really big for this season. You can wear as much floral as you want and its never too much! Everywhere i go and in all the stores i see floral dresses, floral skirts, shirts, shorts, and even shoes! The patterns are small, sweet and girly, and designers are using pastel colors. This look can be kept simple with a pair of basic flats or wedges, but you can also dress it up with a pair of heels and a solid blazer.
