I’ve come to notice that in my daily life, I seem to wear plaid at least once a week. And good news for me, the trend hasn’t gone out yet. Yay! I think plaid can be worn soo many different ways: shirts, jackets, scarves, I even had plaid leggings (true story). But I definitely think it is a trend that isn’t going out anytime soon. Here are some plaids I thought looked great for girls and guys.
You can wear it with a fitted shirt and some cute heels to give it a more girly look. Or you can use their name literally and look like your boyfriend with a baggier shirt and some flats. Either way I think they are comfy and very cute. Here are some pairs I thought looked great.
Every time I go out, I always complain about not having any good jewelry. And it’s true, I need a serious upgrade in the accessories department of my wardrobe. One of the biggest trends this season and continuing into next season is the statement necklace. Look at this little number I found on bebe.com for $39.
Victoria’s Secret has picked their top ten finalist in their nationwide search for the next “Angel.” The models are aged 18-25 and are going to be put through an “Angel Bootcamp” to get them ready for the show. They will have to do things such as “"a series of challenges where the contestants will show their photogenic qualities, prove their abilities as a spokesmodel, show off their red carpet star quality and radiate charisma while walking a runway in lingerie,” according to their press release. You’ll be able to see all this on VSAllAccess.com and CBS.com because we, yes us America, will be judging these chicas starting November 9. Yup, we’re picking the angel who will walk the runway on December 1 on CBS. I watch a lot of America’s Next Top Model, hopefully I can make my best educated guess on who I think should be a Vickie’s model?
I DIE! Then I wake up, look at these shoes and DIE again. Only $1,785 at Neiman’s! Sigh…I want them.
My day just became great. As I was looking through my favorite magazine’s website, Glamour.com, I saw that not only will Michelle Obama be on the cover of the December issue, but Rihanna will have her own cover as well. Rihanna is one of my favorite celebrity style people and I love seeing her in a picture – she always looks amazing. Not only that, but she was nominated as a Woman of the Year by Glamour and breaks her silence about what happened to her that night with Chris Brown. I really don’t have an opinion on that, because it’s not my business, but I’d love to see what she has to say and see some of the photos Glamour took of her for the issue. (as you can see I’m more concerned about her outfits than the issue-at-hand lol). Well anyways, hooray for my girl Rihanna! I hope she’s doing better nowadays. To see the interview, go to Glamour.com.
Chrisitian Siriano is working on his next fall line, and if you saw his Spring 2010, it’s sure to be a good one. He says that it will be “very dark – that’s the only thing we’re going with right now.” That seems to be a recurring trend each fall: dark, neutral colors. “It’s very gothic, kind of like a swamp, but we wanted it to be really feminine.” Personally, I don’t want to be wearing anything swamp-ish (mostly because I go to Florida State, booo Gators), but if Christian Siriano says it’s going to be good, I believe him.
Siriano is also busy with a spinoff reality show for Bravo. Um, why am I just finding out about this? But the show, which is untitled for now, is said to follow him during the creation of his spring 2010 and fall 2010 lines. He states, “it’s very like The September Issue, very Valentino [The Last Emperor]. We want it to be as real as possible.” Well, if it’s anything like those, count me in. He continues, “I think it’s best to be as normal as possible, and luckily, I just happen to be entertaining already.” The show is said to be documentary-style and feature him being “serious” and even talking to the camera. I love this guy.
