It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas

Christmas is right around the corner and that means it's time to dress up and go glam! I've thought of these two outfits which I think would be wonderful for this year's holiday season. I will post another set including outfits for New Year's eve in the next few days. I hope you enjoy what I have put together and as always, don't be afraid to mix it up and make it you. 

Love, Anna xo

Fall Fall Fall !

Well summer drifted into fall and before we even knew it, the temperature started changing and so did everything else, including the trends. I have to say, fall fashion is my all time favorite. It's cool enough to wear more layers, yet warm enough to go out without wearing a big chunky winter coat. And this year's trends have not dissapointed me. We will be seeing lots and lots of knits, faux fur, leather and sheepskin. In short, have fun this season and don't be afraid to be different!

Closer to the edge

  30 Seconds To Mars is probably my favorite band of the moment. They have been around for a while but really caught my attention only about a month ago. I have been listening to lots of rock lately and litterally fell upon the  music video to the song Hurricane and I was instantly hooked! Never have I seen a more artistically beautiful clip. Not only do all the band members star in it, but Jared Leto, the band's lead singer, actually directed the clip, as he does for many of their clips, such as Kings And Queens and Closer To The Edge.

 The band was formed by Jared and Shannon Leto in 1998. Since then , they have released 3 albums : 30 Seconds To Mars (2002) , A Beautiful Lie (2005) and  This Is War (2009) . Although their music is hard to cathegorise, they are usually considered a progressive rock band. Their sound is completely different and I personally love it! 


Rock fan or not, I'm sure that you'll appreciate 30 Seconds To Mars. Go get their latest album out in stores now, you won't regret it !

Shorts Ahoy!

Summer is right  around the corner and that means great new trends. This year, it's all about shorts! They can be casual, paired with flat sandals and a pretty boho bag, or you can dress them up with heals and a fancy clutch. No matter what your style , shorts are sure to take over your closet this summer.  Don't be afraid to show off your legs ladies, it's only summer once a year after all.

Proenza Schouler

  Proenza Schouler are defiantly the designers of the moment , if not of the year. Just last month  (February 2011), the line's  two amazing designers, Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez dressed VOGUE's cover girl Kristen Stewart and had their own interview with the worlds greatest fashion magazine.




                      

   I love the fact that every collection is different, unique. For instance, last year's collection was much more young. Colorful patterns, ranging from yellow's to blue's , short dresses and skirts and a more street-style look. This year, the collection is all about sophistication. You will see a lot  more lace , light soft colors and detailed knits.  

   And that is so proenza! Reinventing their style at every collection is what these two designers do best! I strongly believe Proenza Schouler are the voice of youth and will rock the fashion industry! Watch out !

Danish Delight

  As you may know by now , I am not a rap/hip-hop super fan. I love music of all sorts , but have a certain appreciation for the style people usually call indie or alternative. I personally just call it good stuff , but that's just me !

  One of my favorite bands at the moment is Oh land . They have this special edge to their music which I really love. I fell in love with the band when I first heard their  song sun of a gun a few months ago. I see it as a mix of electric pop and indie, but in all honesty , Oh land cannot be labeled and that's what makes them so interesting to me !

  Oh land originally from Copenhagen, Denmark, recently  toke a huge step  and moved all the way to Brooklyn, New-York. Since then , things have been getting better and better. Their US debut album was released a few months ago, on the 19th of October 2010. It includes some of their best songs such as sun of a gun , Wolf &I and rainbow.

  They previously released their first album Fauna, which was extremely successful in Denmark including some great tracks like Heavy eyes  and Still here.

   Make sure to go visit their beautiful  website and their  myspace page ! I promise you will not regret it !

SPRING FLING !

   I know it's only January and it is still relatively cold back here in Canada but I can assure you that i am in total spring mode right now ! As I flip threw my usual  ELLE , all I see is VINTAGE VINTAGE VINTAGE ! And I am soo pleased with that! I am a huge fan of vintage since for, vintage means making what was once great even better. Designers like Vuitton and and Mcqueen have been all about re-creating an already classic look in 2010. It's all about round collars, 3/4 sleeves and full skirts. 

   I am in love with neutrals and that is great since light pinks and creamy beiges will be, without a doubt , the coulours of spring. What's great about these tones is that since they are neutrals, they can almost, if not always, go with every thing else! I also always thought that these coulours looked amazing on different skin tones, from chalky pale skin to olive tones.











   Now for the scoop necks. I think scoop necks are amazing for showing off bold jewelery and keeping a balance between sophistication and sexy. It does not look overdressed or too covered-up as many people might think. You just have to know how to balange it out. When wearing a scoop neck, don't go for a long cut if you aren't quit tall ( it may look overpowering) . Show some leg since you aren't showing soo much on the upper half of your body. You can also go for bare arms which really makes the outfit look that much more fresh and young. Don't forget to accessories and there you go !






   Well that is all for now ladies ! Hopefully you have learned a thing or two and i cannot wait to see what spring 2011 has in store fore us ! I have a feeling that 2011 will be a very interesting fashion year . Don't be scared to get out of your comfort zone and get crazy!

Love,
Anna
