Kim and Kanye Wed

So over the weekend Kim and Kanye got hitched and there are bets on how long it will last and some of us are saying "enough already" and I hear you but as a true fashion lover I am only here to talk about the clothes of the hour. I must admit that I am a little jealous that she wore Balmain who is one of my favourite designers of all time (I like my fashion with a little edge) on the the bachelorette night and at the reception. I however did not expect the Givenchy Haute Couture dress she wore on the day it was quite conservative for the socialite's usual sexy attire but nonetheless it was perfection in fit and all that matters is that she was happy in what she wore and how it made her feel. My theory on wedding dresses is " at the end of the day you are wearing the dress, so you have to feel the prettiest you've ever felt in it" so please don't listen to the bulldozer friends and family that go with you to shop for your gown. Congrats Kim and Kanye I really wish you the best.

The Other Woman

So saw The Other Woman yesterday and I have to say it was a phenomenal movie. Not to mention the wardrobe, I just had to see who the costume designer was and of course it was Patricia Field of Sex & The City. Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann were a great pair and they had great chemistry on screen. Between the plot the jokes the wardrobe Leslie Mann and Cameron Diaz it was epic to say the least. I loved it. Here are a few of the ensembles I found that I want in my closet. 

Happy Mother's Day

To every woman who takes care of yours or anyone else's children. Have a great day and know all your hard work is appreciated Happy Mother's Day

Trend Or Foe

So we all know that fashion can leave us with buyers remorse as we're taken up in the moment that we find pieces we must have in our closets. Well.... here's the catch to that reasoning; when we unpack our mounds of bags we've purchased we realize we've gone over budget and we really didn't need that cashmere scarf that cost $500.
The key to trends is that it sometimes lasts for a few months and then it's onto the next one and your left with an item you're lackluster about. Don't feed into all trends, pick and choose according to your body type, personal style and what you already have in your closet. Visualize your closet when shopping and take a truthful friend with you to confirm your doubts on an item you're lingering on. Bell bottoms, pheasant tops,  acid wash jeans are all trends that stay on short term and leave us feeling "What was I thinking?". If you're really set on being on trend buy the cheaper versions if you don't intend on wearing it when it's out of season because $300 is far more to spend on a jeans you'll only wear one or two time as opposed to $50. Trends tend to make or break you; it can leave a hole in your wallet or it can add a piece to your wardrobe that can be a staple.
I often see people wear a trend let's say it's the high waisted pants and not take into consideration their height, their size (yes the belly bulge) or the styling of it. Trends have to be well executed and personalized to look good on a person you also have to be honest with yourself. if you're short and apple shaped with skinny legs and you wear a baloony top (pheasant top etc) you'll make yourself look like a lollipop. The key is to work with your figure, balance it out. So for a an apple shape a structured top and a fuller pants or skirt would balance out your frame.
That's why their are so many fashion bloggers out there showing you that you control your style you can wear Prabal Gurung, H&M, Lanvin and Forever21 all in the same outfit. You just need to really listen to yourself and what makes you feel and look chic, your best self, mix and match. It takes time for some people years but you'll get the hang of it once you stop bombarding yourself with what's in and listening to what makes this ensemble you. Because you are what you wear, people judge you on your appearance and how you style yourself.
