Celeb Style: Weekend Flicks and Cool Kicks

Hello all!

Here's some cool things I saw over the weekend in Men's fashion. Right now a friend of mine asked me to style him for an event he's going to and he's basing his whole look off of his new sneakers, Nike Pewter Foamposites. So while i'm thinking of ideas for that it inspired me to do post on celebs and what sneakers they're wearing recently. So here's some cool photos I found of celebs over the weekend.

TREND REPORT: TURBANS

Everyone knows super stylist June Ambrose for her beloved turbans. And lately the head wrap has been making appearances on many different celebs, red carpets, runways and fashionistas everywhere. The trend dates back to Hollywood during the 1920s and 30s where actresses such as Joan Crawford were seen wearing them. The turban is definitely making a bold fashion statement and cannot be pulled of by most but, I love the look. Other than the lovely Ms. Ambrose I have seen celebrities such as Solange and Chrisette Michele wearing them and they have been seen on the runways during Milan fashion week in the Giorgio Armani show. Let me know what you think of the trend.

Celeb Style Emmy's

This Week's Look

Aug 30 - Sept 3

Who: Lea Michele (of hit show Glee)

What she wore: Oscar de la Renta midnight blue gown with multi-color diamond Lorraine Schwartz necklace and satin Swarovski clutch.

Definitely my favorite gown of the evening. The Navy Blue compliments her in so many different ways, her skin tone, the color in her hair. Bravo Lea!

Trend Report! Fall 2010

Animal prints (one of my personal favorites) are being spotted (no pun intended) on runways as well. When one article of clothing is your focus in your look it can be pulled off very well. You will see alot accessories with prints like booties, flats, scarves, gloves and bags.



Cropped pants have been a trend since the spring but they are a good transition piece that you can take into the fall season. I've seen them in all kinds of fabrics, khaki cargos, cords, twill, etc. They pair nicely with booties and even a strappy shoe while it's still kind of warm out like Leighton Meister is wearing above.

Fur accents have been seen on many runways for this fall. I'm not particularly a fan of wearing fur but depending on how it's worn it can look fab!

Plaids and utilitarian boots are definitely a hot ticket item for this fall. When worn together it gives off that "outdoorsy" look. Definitely a nice look for the fall season.

Fresh Friday

Here are two suggestions for the fellas...Must haves for summer!


Try buying basic v-necks in different colors for those extra hot days. They're simple and stylish and can be paired with a cargo short, or any denim and some cool kicks of course.


Can't forget about the shades...here's a few styles I like.

Those Summer Nights

Here's a few tips of what to wear on these hot summer nights.



Sequins are always great if you want to be a bit glamourous on those nights out. Even just one piece with sequins, like a clutch, can dress up any look versus wearing an all sequin dress.



Whites jeans, one of my personal favorites, are very elegant, a great piece to use in your outfit for times when you need to go from day to evening. White linen pants will also do the trick. Both items pair nicely with a flowy tank top and/or bold patterns.


Maxi dresses are simple and comfortable and look great on all body types. This would be great for just a night walking downtown or even if you're going an a date.


Playing with bright colors is always great, espeically with dresses. Turquoise(my favorite color) is a popular choice for the season.

Spring into STYLE!!

Hello All,

I know I have been M.I.A. for a little while. A lot of things have changed in the last 3 weeks. But here are some new trends for Spring/Summer 2010. Enjoy

The Little White Dress
Think of this as your LBD alternative for the warm season. It will look great against nice sunkissed skin. (courtesy of Rugby, Ralph Lauren)


The Boyfriend Short
I am always a fan of taking a male style and putting your own twist on it.


Bleached Denim
Another of my favorites for the season. It nice to switch up your denim look for the season.


Hair Bows
Definitely a cute accessory for the spring and summer. (fyi it does not have to be as large as my pic)

Trend Alert!!!

All of the nice weather we have been having lately inspired today's post. Here are a few trends the ladies should keep an eye out for this spring. Fellas stay tuned for your trends on this week's Fresh Friday with Reality the Don.

Classic Stripes have been revived this spring. A French staple, and one of my personal favorites. One person who you see wearing this trend often is Gwen Stefani. try stores such as Gap and H&M


One of my favorite things to do is steal looks from a male wardrobe, you will be seeing a lot men's style, trouser suits popping up. The trousers look nicely by themselves as well, with a nice blouse or button down. try places like Urban Outfitters.


Beige is the new Black! Lots of neutral colors will be back this spring. beige, camel, tan, white or cream have been spotted all over the Paris Fashion Week runways, shoes included. If you're looking for neutrals to add to your wardrobe try a pair of khaki shorts or sleek white pants. Also look for nude pumps or sandals. Urban Outfitters has a variety of classic staples in khaki and Aldo shoes has plenty of nude sandals and pumps



Turquoise (my favorite color) is another fun color that you will see in spring, especially handbags. Try stores like Nordstrom.

Here are some trends you should look forward to seeing for this Spring and Summer. Sexy details in the backs of dresses. This swimsuit is so haute!! Spring Breakers, you should ad this to your suitcases for Miami, Cancun, etc. Enjoy

Socks n Sandals No Longer a Fashion Faux Pas

I found an amusing article in NYtimes fashion section, discussing how socks n sandals (high heels of course) have been showing up in spring fashion shows. Now I know it sounds silly but I am actually a fan. This look can definitely be pulled off if done correctly.

I found an article talking about how younger men, men in their 20s and 30s, are putting more effort into what they look like and giving their "elders" a run for their money when it comes to being the best dressed. Especially in the office. NY times fashion has a slideshow with some essentials things you guys should consider.
