Voluminous Shoulders: Love Or Loathe?

In the world of fashion trends never die, they just go on hiatus and come back bigger than ever. Right now we’re seeing the return of voluminous shoulders, a defining silhouette from the 80’s. From jackets to dresses to blouses and more, shoulders are becoming major focal points.

The trend began at the Spring shows and then dominated on the Fall runways. Naturally, celebrity style mavens like Mary Kate Olsen, Rihanna, Gwyneth Paltrow, and many more were quick to hop on the big-shoulder bandwagon.

But just because the designers are showing it and the celebrities are wearing it, do we all have to like it?

Harem Pants: Love Or Loathe?

Every so often a trend will come along that will divide the fashion community in two- the lovers and the loathers. This season, that trend is undeniably harem pants (AKA MC Hammer pants). We saw harem pants- best described as a hybrid between a skirt and cigarette pants- saunter down the runways of some of the biggest trend-makers, like Chloe and Alexander McQueen.

Some fashion sites and magazines will encourage you to go out and rock them while others have been advising strongly against it.

We wanna know what YOU think though, so share your thoughts!

Shade to Crave: Gorgeous Green

Going green in the eco-sense has been a trend for quite some time. Going green in the wardrobe sense is a bit newer to the scene and this shade was a prominent color fixture on this season’s runways. We saw army green at Chloé, mossy green at Louis Vuitton, glitzy green at Balmain, bright green at Lanvin, pale green at Malandrino, pretty green prints at Anna Sui, and many more fantastic interpretations of how to work this shade into your wardrobe.

Greens are more carefree and subdued than some of the other standout colors of this season- like powerhouse pink which is a bit more blatant- and can be tamed for a sleek, minimal style, or taken up a notch for a standout one.

The green trend goes beyond clothing, extending its fabulousness to shoes, bags, accessories, even makeup.

Check out some of my favorite green picks after the jump! [Continue reading...]

Get In On Gilt Group

I absolutely love sample sales- designer items at massively slashed prices, well you’d be a fool NOT to love them! Sample sales do have there drawbacks, however- rearranging your schedule to try and get their first for first dibs, elbowing your way through throngs of people to find what you’re looking for, trying to navigate with piles of clothing on your arm. It can all get pretty hectic to say the least, which is why I have done away with the madness of going to these meccas on foot in favor of shopping from the comfort of my own home with sample sale sites like Gilt Group.

At Gilt Group, you gain access to exclusive designer items, from the super high-end stuff, think Oscar de la Renta, Alexander McQueen, and Chloe to contemporary labels like Diane von Furstenberg, Vena Cava, Catherine Malandrino, etc., at massively reduced prices (I have a friend who snagged an Hervé Léger dress for $498 rather than the retail price of $1,250!) all from the comfort of your very own home. Gilt hosts new sales on accessories, clothing, and even beauty products daily featuring items which last as long as the items do, which isn’t very long considering how incredible the deals are!

If you haven’t already signed up, I think it’s safe to say that it’s time to get on that, like now! The site is invite only and we’re inviting you, so click here to join now!

And please report back to us on what items you snag, since we can’t afford to buy everything like we wish we could, we’ll have to settle for living vicariously through you!

Hottest Summer Sandals

Chic, comfortable, easy-to-wear sandals are absolute musts for summer and can be worn from day to night and take you from the beach to the bar.

Studded, fringed, beaded, braided, laced- there are so many amazing trends this season sure to match your favorite shorts, dress up your shortest miniskirt, and compliment your best maxi dress.

While embellished styles can be hard to turn away from, it’s important to be selective with whichever sandal you purchase and to make sure the style is as functional as it is fashionable. If you’re craving something on the statement-making side but don’t want to go too extreme, try styles accented with subtle fringe, small studs, downsized buckles, or a laced-up style (my personal favorite).

Read on for the 10 hotted summer sandal trends! [Continue reading...]
