Retro Muse

Pull out your cat eye sunglasses ladies were going retro on this one!

I am loving the high waisted pencil skirts, fitted corset tops and of course still keeping it like a lady by adding a chic fitted cardigan.

I love this look it super sexy and so much fun...

Recent designers that have been inspired by the retro vibe is definitly Dolce & Gabbana, however their ads still consist of a modern touch.




Keeping it retro is easy and I love adding one of a kind pieces to my look, such as a retro mini ladylike  bag in a bright color.

So be inspired and go retro.

Cavalli

Men's fashion week in Milan had some amazing collections this season.

Roberto Cavalli's F/W 2012-13 collection was full of solid pieces. It consisted of structured coats with leather accents and neon yellow pops of color, which looked amazing against the vast dark color palettes that flourished the runway.







I loved the black leather fitted trousers and double breasted peacoats. The deep purples mixed in with onyx leather trims were so chic.

This was Daniele Cavalli's second men's collection  and the pieces were full of life with a new added edge yet still sticking to his father's design recipe of success.

Neon Craze

So it's no surprise that I love a little color, so for the spring I am lovin any color in a neon hue...

The brighter the better, add  a bit of neon pink, orange or yellow.

Start off with accents pieces like a skinny belt, mini clutch or even dabble your nails in some neon nail lacquer.





If you want to step into the neon craze add edge to your style by mixing dark bold colors and gold accessories.

So brighten your look and add a bit of neon light.

Skin Tight

Hit the sand this summer with some of summer's sexiest swimwear...

Herve Leger's resort 2012 swimwear collection has some of the hottest looks to rock with sexy cut outs peaking out in most of the collection.

If you want to make statement this summer with swimwear that is totally on the edge of fashion Herve's bandage swimwear collection hits the mark.








The structuring of the pieces are done so beautifully. The banding hits each part of the body strategically making the swimwear extremely figure flattering, on top of being super sexy.

Besides my Herve Alexis Bandage dress this is a another piece of bandage I will be adding to my collection and I think you should as well.

Debut

Kanye West debuted his first womenswear collection in the season of Spring 2012 of Paris Fashion Week...

His first collection DW named after his late mother Donda West consisted of  pieces in nude, bold leather black  and white.

His collection consisted of a cool street edge, with some furs mixed in with plunging necklines and trousers inspired a bit by Balmain.







However in all Kanye's first collection was impressive and  his passion for the industry can be seen in his efforts in the pieces.

Some key trends zipper accents on trousers,  floor length skirts, leather dresses and accessories in a combination of edge with a bit of glitz.

Its no surprise Mr. West is taking a dip into fashion his own style is impeccable and always dresses to impress.

Take A Plunge

Plunge in this season with a trend that is bound to get attention...

I love to wear my LBD or earth toned gown with a plunging neckline. This trend is a bit tricky, you want to make sure you have all the right undergarments so we don't have any slip ups.

The best option when wearing an ensemble with a plunging neckline is to keep your top half fitted. This way it cinches you at the waist making the look even more figure flattering...






Max Azria Runway, Versace and Balenciaga to name a few have some beautiful gowns that make your decolletage look fab with this trend...

So take a plunge and try something new...

Nomad Man

It's the call of the desert nomad this season gentlemen...

Dress like your a sexy desert nomad, cuff up your khaki slacks, cut out the arms of that boring khaki blazer and rock it with a sleeveless white tee...

Stick to neutral earth colors reminiscent of the desert. Add a textured red scarf, remember you want to add small pops of color...







It's important to accessorize properly so stick to textured leathers in onyx or black, add stack able Buddhist beads in brown and dress up your khaki's with a pair of gladiators. Dior Homme has an amazing collection of men's gladiators.

So dress like a desert nomad and fill the streets with heat...

Emerging as a designer right around the same time as her counter parts Tom Ford and Marc Jacobs.

Her collections are usually full of color and have a Chinese inspiration to them as well, do to her Chinese background.

Fringe

Start off the new year with a new look...Fringe out with some bangs!

Think of a more shaggy bang though, this way your able to play with your hair style and sweep to the side for something a bit more different.

I love switching my style with the new year and adding a bit of 70's vibe to my hair.




Bangs look amazing on any hair length, it can be a short pixie cut  or even long and layered.

So switch it up and update your look with a lil fringe...
