Look out for! : Maxi shirts.


I spy with my FREACy eye something beginning with...CHIC!
I have a feeling that these full length shirts a la Victor & Rolf s/s 2010/11 will make their way onto the high street as quickly as they can churn them out!
Keep your eyes peeled for these bad boys, they'll be a great addition to your wardrobe staples.
Dress up or dress down with heels, a pair smart ankle grazing trousers and a splash of colour in the form of a floral bow tie or a chunky collar necklace or alternatively sling on some chains, a pair of ballet flats and a fedora for that cool scent of Bohemia for spring/summer.
BUT
Remember keep it simple and easy don't over do it with accessories.

Hairstyle of the season!


Riccardo Tisci sent his girls at the Givenchy S/S 10/11 show down the runway with my favorite hair trend of the season.
Here's how I think it's done:
Middle part the hair separating 2 thin sections at the front place each section between the plates of your straighteners and roll your wrist backwards and forwards whilst sliding down the hair to create waves(not curls), only come a short way unless you want to do your own take on the style. Then crimp the rest of your hair, divide the hair into two again this time using all the hair following the line of the middle parting. Using a bobble use it about two thirds of the way down your hair then tightly braid your hair securing the braid with another bobble at the bottom, take out the first bobble at the top of the braid. Repeat this step on the opposite side and tease the top sections of hair for more volume, finish off with a good spritz of hair spray and VOILA! Givenchy runway hair!

See the light in minimal white.


In this coming season S/S 2010/11 the runways are filled with head to toe stark white, designers from Chanel, Alexander McQueen, Gareth Pugh, Chloe and Givenchy range in softly subtle to strong sharp silhouette's. When it comes to summer there's nothing better than wearing white to keep you cool as it reflects the light away you and also it makes your sun kissed skin glow.



How to wear it:

Its pretty self explanatory this trend...wear EVERYTHING WHITE! Its up to you whether to play with a mix of soft and sharp silhouette's or stick to one. So either try a cute day dress made from chiffon or silk with a pair of sandals and Givenchy style bunches or wear a smart fitted suit with a sheer shirt and chunky block heels and wet look slick back hair. This trends great for work or play, but be warned be weary of wearing it on a night out or you might end up with cosmo all down your dress!

BOYS! this trend can work for you too follow similar rules and just perhaps stick to the sharp sleek silhouette in suits, shorts and leggings etc.
