Newest Winter Fashion Trends

Cute or Not So Much....You Tell Me!

So this week I have read or heard about the newest winter fashion trends. Some of them I have to say I love and some are not so cute. I am not the type of girl who can pull off any crazy looks, but if this intrigues you more power to ya. :) I put together a couple boards to show examples and you can be to judge.

This first fashion trend is something I can actually see myself being apart of. Bright Bold Nail Polish. This is a great way to liven up a drab wardrobe. Pick a nice bright color for your nails. This will add a nice pop to usual neutral colors worn during this season. The great thing about this is each color will only cost you $5-$6.

The next trend is also another one that I love. Big Beautiful Rings! Ladies, dig out that fun costume jewelry or go ahead and buy that ring you thought was a little to crazy for your style. Big, chunky and glamorous rings are in. I am super excited about this. I have always loved large funky rings. Now I have a good reason to wear them without getting funny looks. Here is a collection I put together of fun pieces.

I have to admit if I had the space and the money I would be loaded up on shoes. The coming trend of printed shoes...not so much. With shoes like these it seriously takes about fifty bad ones for me to find a pair that I actually like. The prints I am finding are all very loud and almost annoying to look at. Take a look and tell me what you think...

The final trend that is popping up are temporary lip tattoos called Violet Lips. I have to be completely honest here...They scare me and are horrifying to look at. Lips are suppose to be luscious and beautiful. These tattoos turn them into a scary image of something that should not be on your face. I laughed when I saw these and the women wearing them. They looked ridiculous! They were sitting there pouting their lips thinking it was cute. Honey, if your in your mid 20's or up don't do it, just don't. I feel this trend is one the young ones need to stick to. You know, the high school girls. What would you do??? Into it or not?

Well that's it, the latest and not always greatest fashion trends.

Until Next Time My Friends.

New Years Eve Fashion

The carefree days before being married and having my children I always looked forward to the new year in many ways. Number one is I love the thought of a “fresh start” in the beginning of the new year. No better way to bring that fresh start to your life by looking and feeling fabulous. My personal style for new year's eve is total glitz and glam. I love the sparkles and sexy look. Here are my favorite inspirations to ring in 2012 with total style.

Anya Hindmarch Valerie Multicolor Glitter Clutch.

So sophisticated and gorgeous. If you are not quite the glitzy type, but want to be glam this is the perfect accessories to carry your items in this New Year's Eve.

Miu Miu Open Toe Glitter/Suede Booties

These are amazing. Perfectly paired with a rich jewel tone tight and a fab little black dress. I can totally imagine a silver/grey smokey eye and nude lip with this awesome shoe.

Polyvore.com

This is a very cool website for loads of fashion inspirations. These looks I put together in a matter of 30 minutes. I'm sure you can find these pieces and create a similar look with no problem. This time though you will have a plan of attack while shopping because you will know exactly what you are looking for.

Happy New Years Everyone!

 

2012 Pantone Color Of The Year Tangerine Tango

Tangerine Tango – Pantone's Color Of 2012

This fun, energetic, color was chosen because of the encouraging hues that provide motivation and action. Personally, I LOVE IT!

I decided to peek around and find inspiration through items with this beautiful hue. Enjoy!

The first thing that caught my attention is this amazing chair from Crate and Barrel. This would be a great focus piece in a subtle room. If you are looking for a pop of color this would definitely be a great go to piece. I am really enjoying the thoughts of Browns and Pantone Tangerine Tango mixed together.

The pallet including Tangerine Tango, Driftwood and Starfish drew my right in. I could imagine myself in this room with a chunky knit blanket and a cup of hot cocoa. This room is so earthy and airy with just the right amount of color. I love the idea of using pillows of an accent color to make the room pop. This is a simple and easy way to liven your room with out being anchored with a permanent piece.

On the fashion side I am actually having a hard time finding pieces that really interest me. I did however find jewelry pieces that are very fun!

I have to say my favorite is the Tangerine feather jewelry. Look at how funky these are. I love the way you can add the popular feather look with out having to put the darn things in your hair!

The second piece I really just loved is a bold beautiful hair flower. This can be worn with any complementing color to really add a special touch.

Well I hope you all enjoys samples of how you can incorporate the 2012 Pantone Color Of The Year Tangerine Tango.

Winter Fashion

Oh the weather outside is frightful...

I have been so inspired by all the adorable looks I have been seeing on Pinterest. I have decided to put together a grouping of winter looks that I would LOVE to have in my closet this winter.

 I am totally crushing on above the knees boots. I would really like to get a pair soon. This whole look is amazing, but the boots are what drew me in.

This is from the Dolores Promesas Fall Winter 2011-2012 Look book.

A sweet and classic sweater dress is a must in every females closet in the fall and winter. I love this classic look with the chunky bangles and the knee high socks. Those fantastic shoes definitely add some fun to the whole look. I would love to wear this.

This piece was from the Blanco 2012 Winter Look Book

This next look is an affordable gorgeous style from H&M.

This bright and fun pattern is a look that can be worn by day or night with minimal transformation. I would pull back my hair an add some sparkle with earrings and a bracelet for a fun and sexy night look.

This next piece is from the Christian Dior Ready to Wear Autumn/Winter 2011/2012 show during Paris Fashion Week. This look takes my breath away. Oh how I wish oh wish to have this in my closet one day. This dress just screams romance to me, with the flowing tiers of fabric and the charming top piece. The shoes add just enough drama and spunk to the look. Love it!
