Colors of your wardrobe

Dressing in bright colors is my fortay. I truly believe it reflects my personality and my mood. On days that I am sad or frustrated, I've noticed that I wear black. Regardless of summer or winter, I usually wear colorful clothing. A lot of my friends tend to dress in dark clothing and think that color can only be pulled off  by certain people. I tend to disagree. I think anyone can wear color, perhaps not certain colors like bright pinks or turquoises but generally color is pleasing to the eye, and is always pleasing to my soul.

My recommendation for those who tend to wear black a lot is to try and pair colorful pieces with black pieces. A good example would to wear a black blazer with a purple/pink dressy tank top underneath. For those who love blue, try a sexy black dress with a turquoise stone necklace and earrings. I absolutely love that look on some of my girlfriends. Although all black is slimming, it's also depressing...you aren't going to a funeral ( at least, I hope not.) Life is about being bold and daring, if that isn't part of who you are...try with wearing bright lingerie ;)

To all you sexy clubbers out there

I will first start off by saying, I used to club A LOT. One of the main reasons was because I loved dressing up and because I got to dance my tush off the whole night, looking great. One thing I don't understand is, the girls that will wear flip flops to a club. I mean flip flops, with what some people might consider a prom dress. When I lived in Vancouver it was very common to see girls wearing a gorgeous dress with flip flops.It completely ruins the point of a dressy-dress. To wear flip-ity flops is comfortable but if you feel like being comfortable, you might as well wear a t-shirt and jeans as well, or just go clubbing in your pjs. You're a walking "oxymoron". Now I'm all about fashion faux-pas but not when it puts yourself in danger as well. Are you girls not afraid that someone is going to step on your exposed feet? The clubs usually get super packed, you get pushed, you get trampled. Sure, it's not any worse than open-toed stilettos but at least, just your toes can be affected (and your heel can be used to go up the person's ass for stepping on them). Clubbing on vacation in a tropical place is a different story, anything goes, really, you're on vaca, who cares :)

Now, this is to all the girls out there that like to expose a lot of their goods. Primarily, I think a good rule to follow is, if you want to expose your knockers, you shouldn't show too much leg. If you want to show off your hot legs, you should cover your chest. All at once, screams " I want to go home with you, you, you and you tonight" and hey if that's your thing, I have nothing against it. Ultimately, what I am trying to say is, it's one thing to flaunt what your mama give you, but you can do it with class. I love Mini skirts but if I wear one, I won't wear a low hanging neckline halter with it either. I'm not saying you dress for the attention, you should dress yourself for you, first and foremost, and with that being said, you should respect yourself as well.

Socks with Sandals??

We are gathering trends from our nanas, so it seems. A few days ago, I stumbled across a moral dilemma reading a magazine... these beautiful models are being photographed in couture made by Marc Jacob, Armani, Prada... but none the less strutting in socks and sandals down the runway! Something just doesn't seem right? oh that's right, it's the black dress socks that are being worn with white stilettos with the Armani Prive Mini Dress. Not only do the socks appear to be for winter or for men, they have feathers and random pieces hanging from them. Sexy or Outrageous?

Is fashion crossing the line where we feel the need to look to our grannies for style? Now, I'm not bashing our grannies' style but I never liked men wearing socks and Birkenstocks to begin with. We are basically promoting laziness to groom our feet... If you don't have a pedicure... that's OK, slip on a pair socks with your open-toed pumps and head to the ball!

Hopefully this trend does not continue to the winter. Next ,Christmas socks will have to match the ugly christmas sweaters, then we're all doomed. Will they start making snow repellant socks?? those poor die hard fashionistas.  Ok. I'll stop, but COME on. I'll leave you with this thought...If it's hot enough for sandals, it's too hot to wear socks. If it's cold enough to wear socks, it's too cold for sandals. This is just my opinion, of course.


Ladies, Would you wear your socks in sandals?

Men, do you find the trend attractive?

Hair Extentions of lack there of...ugh

Alright ladies with faux locks, it's time to break it down for you. Now my hair is far from perfect but when I see you beautiful ladies try and elongate your hair with extentions, that look like they have been purchased from the mall kiosk for 10 dollars a piece, it's quite horrifying. When your hair is shoulder length and you have extentions that are down to your back, you must layer your extentions so it does not look like you have random strands of skunk hanging from your head. Girls that have thick hair should not be purchasing 3 pieces to add length as it looks like you are wearing a wig on top of another wig. I would suggest spending a few hundred ($600 or more) to have them look healthy and even, all around your tete.. For gods sake, wash your extentions as well if they are clip ins. Who wants to smell your nappy locks? I think hair extentions look best when they wavy and volumized. Just a thought...
