Fall’s New Looks: The LBD

September 15, 2008

Goth Kids rejoice; Black is back… as the new black! This fall black will be bigger than ever, from girly and sweet, to textured and strong. The most slimming, easy color and shape will be coming back with accessories galore! On the runway it was paired with simple hair and makeup and bold accessories.

I love this style, so simple, sleek and fun! Plus everyone looks good on the dark side every now and then!

Penelope Shows You How To Wear Black

Who says black has to be boring? Penelope is wearing a GORGEOUS black Chanel Haute Couture and Chopard Diamonds for the NYC Elegy screening. The collar and button detailing are a great way to play up simple black, and the seductive slit adds sexiness without showing too much. Her loose semi-wavy hair helps keep the look fresh and not too stuffy, while her clean makeup shows off her beautiful face. She may look covered up now, but there are some pretty long and sexy nude scenes in the movie! Can’t wait to see that!

What do you think about Penelope’s outfit? Are you going to go see Elegy?

Britney Spears Shows The Power of the LBD

August 5, 2008

Britney is back and she is looking better than ever thanks to a gorgeous LBD. Congrats to her and her great recovery! I would like to point out a few fabulous features of her LBD that we could take to the streets and use to re-create the same wow-factor in our own night out.

1) Notice the playful V-neck halter top. It shows just enough cleavage without showing too much. It elegantly covers her girls, the halter adds support, and most importantly it is not pulling.

2) The dress is fitted right under the bust, through to the bottom of the dress, but isn’t too tight. It accentuates her waist and her curves.

3) The vertical seams along the front of the dress create the illusion of length and have a fantastic slimming effect.

4) The satin fabric takes a basic black dress and adds something special. It looks great on the red carpet, out to dinner, or with the right accessories- out to a club.
