Trend Alert: Clogs?

Known for being comfortable, the clogs have been revamped and have been seen all over the runway. 70's Boho chic or just catastrophic? Let's see how big of a trend this will become.....

Zoe Saldana

Celeb Look of the Week post written by me for FNA SF. I chose Zoe Saldana, because I believe she has great style and exudes confidence in her ensembles. No outfit should ever be worn out without confidence, because if you cannot convince herself that you look good, how will others?

Trend Report: Indigenous Influence

We see a major influence by Native American culture. Though tribal prints have been with us for a few seasons now this look is more refined. Beforehand we had seen very bright colors, but now much of the colors used with this trend are of low saturation with pops of color. The color palette includes various shades of Cognac, many of the neutrals that evoke a dry dessert feeling, Jade Green, Turquoise, Rustic Red, Azure Blue, Black, and White. Designers are using the inspiration through the adornment in jewelry, handbags, belts, and dresses. Handbags are seen with fringed or tasseled detailing. Designers have been using the Southwest influence through various styles. An Example, we see is a loose draped fit in the jackets that giving off a cape-esque look. Designers like Giambattista Valli used a Japanese inspired geometric shaped dress with the Southwest like print. Fabrics that designers have been using vary from suede, denim, linen, cotton, silks to tweed. The Southwest look can be laid back boho style or uptown chic. Here are pictures to exemplify this trend.

Trend Watch...Little Drummer Boy

So I am in love with the bandleader inspired jackets and vests. Michael Jackson made a statement in them in the 80s with his full on sequenced version. Celebs have been rocking this fabulous trend. This is defintely a statement piece to purchase! Don't worry if you cannot afford the Balmain $14,000 dollar version (really none of us can lol) because target has a vest version worn in the picture below by Kim Kardashian for only $35. This trend give a effortless edgy chic look when paired with a fitted cami, skinny jeans, and sky high heels!

One Day I Will Own You

So I have a shoe fetish fantasy of having a closet full of amazing heels! One brand in particular is Christian Louboutin. His designs vary from classy sophisticated to edgy and chic! The designer of the red colored sole shoes has a mission to "make a woman look sexy, beautiful, to make her legs look as long as [he] can." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!! I refuse to try on a pair of his heels in fear that I won't be able to let go and just charge them on my card! So until the day I can afford a few pairs of these delicious shoes I will just have to fantasize! Go to www.christianlouboutin.com/ how cute is this website with the walking heels!
