News: Fashion Trend for 2009: Fringe Dresses by assunta

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 02:13:19 +1000

Cowboy, flapper, hippie, high tech—who knew fringe had such a big vocabulary? Fringe dresses can range from being casual day dresses to lassic chic fashion. So for all us fashionistas, this fringe trend supplies us with our day dresses or evening dresses, really any style of dresses we wish for. Fringe Away on the Runways Alexander McQueen's pieces were more to the structured side with sinew-esque fringing slinking around the body. Jil Sander's fringing was long and free-flowing, Alberta Ferretti's delicately pretty; while Gaspard Yurkievich took inspiration more from the Burlesque than the Jazz Age.

How to wear it
It depends largely upon the style and themeing of the piece. A pair of long, toned legs work wonders for a short fringed skirt; those lacking need to be a tad more cautious. The appeal of fringing also owes alot to the way it moves, so pay careful attention to buying quality fabrics that shimmy and shine and don't... Fashion Trend for 2009: Fringe Dresses at 2threads

News: Fashion Trend for 2009: Cropped Jackets by assunta

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 02:01:33 +1000

Cropped jackets and blazers are a mainstay, especially since they tend to be fairly figure flattering. What’s new with this designer fashion is the uber cropped jacket that hits above the natural waist. While they’re not as warm as full length jackets, they’re ripe with possibility for layering. Plus this fashion trend for 2009, they’re great for long waisted women, as they visually shorten your torso and lengthens your leg line. Uber Cropped Jackets at Karen Walker, Jeremy Laing, and Shipley & Halmos. The name of the game this Spring is laid back and casual. Hot trends like the boyfriend jeans and ripped jeans are taking over as the go-to style of the season. Both casual styles can be worn with a cropped blazer or boyfriend jacket. -Assunta C RelatedLinks: Street Fashion: Style on the streets of Sydney...

A confident Jessica Mauboy works the camera in a shorter-than-short minidress. She has blossomed from the cherubic 17-year-old we met on Australian Idol in 2006, who at size 12 was infamously told by judge Kyle Sandilands to "lose the jelly belly." Jessica in a Mini Dress

Today, she has every reason to shine - since coming runner-up to Damien Leith, Mauboy scored a record deal with Sony BMG, sang with the Young Divas and released her debut album, Been Waiting, on Nov. 22.

A part of an interview I found about Jessica from Marie Claire :: How would you describe your style?
When it comes to entertainment, I love all of the glitz and glamour, but when I'm not on stage, I just wear jeans with high heels or wedges - I love wedges!

Whose style do you admire?
J.Lo definitely. And Beyonce as well. When I'm not working, I'm into more casual style as well.

Have you worn any great clothes performing?

This bling key ring is a real gem. Every girl deserves a diamond at some time in her life, but the likelihood of her getting one this size is slim to say the least (unless you happen to own, and would consider selling, say, Wales). With four rings for all your keys and a great big fat acrylic diamond key fob, the Diamond Key Ring is the ultimate accessory.

You don't need it, but its something you really really want! This beautiful Swarovski Crystal Diamond Ring Keychain can also double as a napkin ring holder and favor. The key ring portion is hidden behind the napkin when in use as a napkin ring holder. -Assunta C Related Links: The Key to My Heart Lydia's Jewels... Fashion Trend: Diamond Ring Keyring at 2threads

News: Australian Designer Profile: Willow by nicoledora

Sat, 27 Jun 2009 17:12:39 +1000

Kit Willow Podgornik is an Australian designer who debuted her label Willow at fashion week in 2003, and since then has made a name for herself by designing whimsical and romantic clothes, that are adored by everyone around the globe - Nicole Kidman, Kate Bosworth and Cate Blanchett are just some of her admirers who love her Australian designer dresses. The woman that wears Willow is poised, elegant and full of romance. It is a special thing when a designer fashion label creates a complete atmosphere that is only re-enforced with each season, and Kit Willow has done just this with the release of her latest collection – Willow's 2009 Resort range.

In my opinion, Kit Willow (who in the past has helped to bring back the thigh high boot trend in her Winter 09 collection) cannot put a foot wrong when it comes to her ethereal designs, and this collection is definitely a major achievement in her career.

It seems that the theme for this late... Australian Designer Profile: Willow at 2threads

News: Fashion Trend: When in Rome, Buy Ripped Jeans by assunta

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 04:15:21 +1000

In Rome the style depends very much on your age. Most under-25s dress very street - lots of ripped and faded denim, the girls wear t-shirts mostly, 80s style if anything. Think Miss Sixty. Sneakers are perfectly OK - the best are Converse or Pumas etc. Ripped Denim The distressed jean look has come and gone but it has altered its look. Now there are skinny ripped jeans, which are worn plenty on the streets. If your not that into the skinny jean look, Embody denim is a great designer of jeans made to compliment curvy bodies! Another great pair of jeans you can find people wearing are Nudie jeans. Nudie is the ”naked truth about denim”. Denim has the ability to age beautifully – formed by its user into a second skin, naked and personal. The longer it lives the more character it gets. The indigo is a living colour that fades and gives the denim its character. The more you wear your jeans the more beautiful they get. Jeans are more than j...

News: Winter Fashion trend: Waist Clincher belts by nicoledora

Wed, 24 Jun 2009 21:57:37 +1000

Something that is proving to be popular with the cool kids is the latest winter fashion trend: waist clincher belts. If only it could be that easy, put a belt on and presto - instant cred. But alas, this is not the case. This particular trend can work wonders on the female physique or it could highlight unflattering bits and bumps that you would rather not show. This is the exact reason why I have never really been sold on the whole belt on waist deal, but after this past couple of seasons on the catwalks, this trend might be a clincher. What we are seeing with the reinvention of the waist clenched belt is a modern variation on the corset – originally a symbol of Victorian upper class suppression – and it seems the fashion world of today has embraced this nostalgia with enthusiasm, taking the trend across a number of fashion genres. For the fall 2009 show, Oscar De La Renta had models reliving a role reminiscent of the movie Secretary, walking down the catwalk w... Winter Fashion trend: Waist Clincher belts at 2threads
