Latex leggings and waxed jeans


With the whole patent look successfully making it's way down the runways to main stream public, it's no surprise that waxed jeans and latex leggings are on the rise.

It's apart of the whole tough girl look that's been evident on the runway's for the fall season which include black, leather and patent styles. High gloss adds an 80's touch, however shine may attract attention to those bits and pieces of the body that may be in less than perfect shape. For those who don't like the out-there look try waxed jeans.
I'm trying to find myself a pair to see if it works well in reality or at least on my body, but it's been harder to find than i thought. When i find an (affordable) pair I'll do a post on it.

Bright Summer dresses


The best part about summer is you can let yourself experiment with brighter colors, bold prints and short hemlines in a manner which suits warm sunny days perfectly. I'm really loving the Salmon colored dress Beyonce is wearing while Lindsay Lohan sports the new season take on dresses- The Maxi.


It's interesting to see how all four women abandoned their summer flats for thick wedges and sky high heels in a bid to dress up relaxed floaty style dresses.

Red Ray Ban Wayfarers


OK we all know wayfarer's are big, but these days our young Hollywood starlets can't get enough of their ray ban wayfarer's that their now sporting these 80's shades in fiery red. First seen on Lindsay Lohan red wayfarer's are a modern take on the classic style.


It takes a lot of confidence to pull off such a bright color adorning your face, but Mary Kate Olsen and Rachel Bilson work the look by keeping the rest of their outfit black, while Sienna Miller prefers to color coordinate which also works.


However, I don't think red wayfarers will stand the test of time, so it may be better to invest in a cheaper chain store inspired style for around $10 rather than folk out $100 on a very trendy seasonal piece.

Victoria Beckhams repeat outfits







This is one of the reason's i love Victoria Beckham, with all her money and exposure she still manages to keep it real by wearing outfits more than once.


I like the fact that she isn't afraid to wear the same thing twice, however, wearing a certain piece of clothing more than once is one thing, but wearing the exact same ensemble with the same accessories is another. I don't know weather it's a lack of Victoria's creativity to try something new with a few key pieces or perhaps she doesn't want to mess with something that already works for her.


Either way, if Victoria Beckham can repeat outfits then their is hope for the rest of us. Just a few pics of her repeat outfits.

Lindsay Lohan 4th July Party


Lindsay Lohan's 4th of July party saw the likes of Paris Hilton, Nicky Hilton and a brand new boyfriend in attendance. However, what struck me was how many of the attenders were wearing stripes. Lindsay Lohan, Her sister, her mum, another guest and Nicky Hilton were striped out. So it looks like the stripe trend is here to stay.

Paris and Nicky Hilton style


a few years ago, Paris and Nicky Hilton were the main culprits who kicked off the tacky slogan t-shirts i mentioned about a few posts back. They were both in dire need of showing off what designer brand they were wearing, with slogans, colors and self-obsessed messages like 'Queen of the universe' popping out from every angle.


Although Paris Hilton is known for her fashion mistakes, she does however have a few good outfits and both sisters have now adopted a more grown up fuss free style.

Spice Girls Tour 2007


I was a fanatic spice girls fan back in the day. I had owned Spice world the movie, Girl Power the documentary, The deodorant spray, the lollipops, the t-shirt, magazines they featured in....anyways that was then but now i am quiet confused about this new tour they have announced.


A lot of fans of the Spice Girls have grown, whilst this generation probably don't even know who the Spice girls are. So i am curious as to who will actually attend their concerts.
Either way, their style has become a lot more sophisticated now and some of these girls need a name change. Scary spice ain't too scary anymore and Victoria Beckham is starting too look a lot scarier than the rest.

Fashion offenders Installment


Just a few pictures of some very bad fashion choices by three celebs in the past including Victoria Beckham, Bjork and Alicia Keys. Victoria Beckham's outfit is very inappropriate for a mother of three and she kind of looked like she was going to a ballet recital. And i have no idea what Alicia Keys was thinking in either of these outfits. Thank god at least two of them have gotten their act together, while Bjork.. well...will always be Bjork.
