The blue revolution

Diesel has recently announced the launch of the blue revolution, which comes in the shape of their extremely sexy denim collection.

The all-new and innovation jeans are in fact designed to fit your attitude as well as you figure, which results in an extremely flattering wardrobe essential for all!

The collection has launched a total of six styles so far.  These six styles come in the shape of the Highkee 69P style, the Bootzee 0060D, the Flairlegg 0888Z, the Myguy 0668S and the Grupee8880I.

The Grupee envisions that ‘look at me’ attitude and is an easy style to pop on either day or night.  No girl can go wrong with this super sexy fit, which comes in a slim-leg style.  They also come in a few different shades including pearl grey, a black shade and a distressed wash.  These are certainly one pair of jeans that are guaranteed to make you the centre of attention on all occasions.

Thje Grupee 88801 jeans are priced at £210 and are available from any stocking the Diesel brand nationwise.

The classic straight cut, otherwise known as the highkee allows those that wear such a style to don their inner Marilyn.  The cut has been inspired by the 50’s and the slim straight cut legs and high waist give the wearer a sexy and curvy effect, emphasising your silhouette both front and back.

The Highkee jeans are also available from the Diesel brand.

The iconic flair is another look to invest in if you fancy taking a step back in time.  This infamous style seems to come back into fashion more than it goes out.  In order to rock that 70’s vibe to full effect, don the flares with your highest platforms.   The Flairlegg from Diesel offers a pair of jeans designed with the perfect flair and chino style pockets, complete with an unfinished hem.

Doing the bright thing

This season is welcoming colour with open arms, especially on the runway of Jason Wu.  The designer of the season opted to use MAC for his recent catwalk show.

MAC make-up artist Diane Kendall used an eye catching emerald green shade on the model’s eye sockets.  This was in order to pay homage to the Ming Dynasty.  This is exactly what Wu himself wished to create as he too paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty with his current collection.

Prabal Gurung followed suit and also sought the help of top-name make-up artists to create an emerald green feel.  Such a look is very eye-catching and really makes the eyes pop!

Charlotte Tilbury was the make-up artist in question.  She used a range of MAC cosmetics to create the look, which in turn resembled a scarab beetle inspired effect.  Dual tone green was used with a hit of blue on the eye sockets.

Other designers that really went to town on the make-up front included Estee Lauder.  The high fashion house had the help of the colour connoisseur Tom Pecheux.

Derek Lam smoked the eyes out using a deep purple shade.  The end result was something extremely dramatic that certainly turned a few heads on the runway.

If bright eyes are not your thing, why not opt for a bright lip instead!  These were showcased at the runway of Victoria Beckham and also at Thakoon.  Diane kendel was the make-up connoisseur in question and worked with matte acid blocks of colour in hot hues.

Both of the above designers have never taken this colourful road before, it certainly created an impact however!

Now we will just have to wait and see whether the Autumn shows follow suit and opt too for a paint box style of effects!  This is certainly the season to be doing the bright thing!  Head down to your local beauty counter today and get experimenting with a few different colours.

 

The sequins versus the blazer

We are by no means saying you stick to one or the other, we are simply saying what is hot for this season!

Sequins are great for many occasions.  Most may think you can only don such an attire to a party.  However this is not the case and wearing sequins with distressed jeans, boots and a blazer can create ‘I just threw this on’ look i amtter of minutes.

The contrast of both the over the top and sequins and the understated distressed fabrics will create an outfit that is not only alternative but also super cool and right on trend for the new year!

Sequins can also be worn with flats on a daytime.  Opt for a patent red pair in order to create a different look that stands out but for all the right reasons.  Keep you hair and jewellery simple in order to tone down the rest of the outfit.

Dress the same look up on an evening out with killer heels and cutesy accessories.  Pile the hair up and opt for one of this season’s must-have embellished headbands.

If you want to do the boyish approach, team a sequined top with a pair of sequined brogues, jeans and a blazer.  Add a felt hat to the mix as your only accessory!  This is another great daytime look that will guarantee to turn a few heads.

Your hair dilemmas solved

Hair is just as important as clothes when it comes to fashion and just as the the highstreet and catwalk styles come and go, so do the new season hairstyles!

Long and lovely is definitely back on the cards for the new season.

In order to achieve such a style, you need a great set of hair care tools.  Condition and shine are a must if you want your locks to ooze a luxurious feel, think Mirander Kerr, Angelina Jolie, Megan Fox and Kat Beckinsale.  All have super long locks yet all manage to keep their locks in great condition and super shiny, any place or time!

Dark colours are also in for the winter months, so if you are thinking about a change now is the time to work on this!  Think chocolate browns, reddish shades and iced mochas, also try adding a few curls to the mane.

This can be achieved by attaching soft rollers to the hair and brushing them out slightly once set.  One great product to invest in is a fabulous photo protection spray, which will protect the hair from heat damage if using heated rollers.

Keeping your locks in great condition doesn’t have to be a chore, simply make sure you stock up on good hair care products, give your hair a rest from the rollers once in a while and visit your salon regularly.  Even if you just opt for a few inches to be removed, this small difference will in fact make a larger one when it comes to the look of your locks!

Finally don a few of this season must-have hair accessories and you are good to go.

Ralph Lauren Dresses the Entire Family

Ralph Lauren Dresses the Entire Family

With a name that we tend to equate with trendy men’s fashions, it is surprising to many of us when we find that this famous designer also carries a line of fashionable clothing for women and children as well. If you are ‘into’ Ralph Lauren as so many of us are, you can literally dress the entire family in all things Lauren. From newborn footies to extra large men’s attire, Ralph Lauren is there.

This year, there are a number of newborn styles that are truly charming. Of particular note is the three piece Delaney Floral Set that comes with the floral print coverall, a short sleeve white body suit and of course a darling pink knit jacket with the lining in floral. For the bigger little girl, the bright red Ciaran corduroy dress with a pintuck faux placket is as smart as can be in bright red.

However, Mom can also go red in her sexy sleek Adara stretch satin dress that is a perfect blend of sex appeal and sophistication. This ruched surplice V-neck pull on dress sports an empire waist and gently hugs her curves while adding shirring down the left side. There isn’t a classier, body contouring dress on the market this season so this style is really worth looking at, retailing at just $160 USD.

Guys, when it comes to Ralph Lauren, there is no need to mention his many styles of polo shirts and classic pants. The name is synonymous with trendy mens’ fashions so that anything Lauren is also ultra stylish. This is one designer that can quite literally clothe the entire family.
