HAPPY NEW YEAR

WE HAVE SURVIVED 2012 FASHIONABLY NOTICED. THIS YEAR'S FASHION FORECAST WE ARE GOING TO SEE ALOT OF PATTERNS, COLOR BLOCK, BRIGHT COLORS, FLORALS  AND A SPLASH OF PASTELS. SUITS ARE STILL FEMININE TO DISPLAY OUR GIRLY PLAYFUL SIDE. BUT THEY ARE BEEFED UP WITH GROMMETS, SEQUINS, AND COLLARED CHOKERS TO GIVE IT A SULTRY EDGE.( toughness meets sweet).CLEAN LINES WITH A LAID BACK FEEL WHEN SUITING. BRIGHT COLORS ARE A MUST. IF YOU WEAR  BRIGHT COLORS MAKE SURE IT FITS YOUR PERSONALITY AND SENSE OF STYLE!  TRENCH COATS ARE STILL A HIT BUT ADD YOUR OWN BELT PERSONALIZE IT. ADD SOME STUDS TO ONE OF THE FLAPS AND FUNK IT UP A NOTCH OR TWO. GIVE IT THAT COOL DOWNTOWN VIBE. WE ARE GOING TO SEE AN ARRAY OF POLKA DOTS ENTERING ON THE FASHION SCENE. IF YOU CHOOSE TO ADD POLKA DOTS JUST KNOW WHEN WEARING THEM FEEL FREE TO MIX AND MATCH WITH OTHER PATTERNS AND MAKE THE LOOK UNDEFINED,RELAXED AND FUN.  BAGS ARE STILL STRUCTURED, AND BLACK IS STILL EDGY AND SEXY. THEY SAY THIS SEASON BERRY AND BURGUNDY IS THE NEW BLACK. (we will see) AFTER BEING A NEW YORKER FOR SO MANY YEARS I DON'T THINK I WILL EVER LEAVE THE COLOR BLACK. MY WHOLE CLOSET IS BLACK AND I LOVE IT THAT WAY. I ONCE READ AN ARTICLE ON ONE OF MY FAVORITE DESIGNERS DONNA KARAN, AND SHE SAID HER NYC APARTMENT CLOSET IS ALL BLACK. I KNEW AT THAT MOMENT WHY I LOVE HER STYLE SO MUCH. IT'S SOMETHING ABOUT BLACK. IT'S INTRIGUING, SEXY, SLIMMING AND ALWAYS SUPA DUPA FLY. SO BACK TO OUR STYLE FORECAST; DRESSES ARE STILL HOT HOT HOT. DRAPED BACKS, CUT-OUTS, PLUNGING NECKLINES, AND SPLITS(thigh high) ARE FIERCE FOR THIS SUMMER. NO SPLIT IS HIGH ENOUGH FOR THIS SEASON, AND THE HALTERS NO MATTER HOW LOW DOWN THE BACK IS A DO!  HEAD SCARVES IS THE GO TO ACCESSORY AS WELL AS TURBANS IS A TREND TO BE IN. JEWELS AND GEMSTONES ARE ALL THE RAGE. EARRINGS AND NECKLACES MUST BE BEDAZZLED THIS SEASON WITH GREEN AND BLUE AND LETS NOT FORGET RUBY RED. RED GEMSTONES ARE HOT RIGHT NOW.(stealing the scene). SO IS DRUZY ITS A DRUZY FRENZY GOING ON ANOTHER TREND TO BE IN. LAST BUT NOT LEAST THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE SHOE. WE ARE WITNESSING THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SHOES AND SANDALS EVER. IT'S ALMOST AS IF ALL THE DESIGNERS ARE COMPETING, ALTHOUGH THEY DO THAT ANYWAY. BUT THE SHOES/SANDAL ARE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AS IF THEY ARE READING OUR MINDS. IT WILL BE FUN PLAYING IN 6'INCH HEELS THIS SUMMER. I MAY ADD. ALSO WHEN TRAVELING AND DOING ALOT OF WALKING YOU ARE GOING TO SEE CLEAR FLIP FLOPS AND LUCITE HEELS LADIES, LUCITE IS MAKING A COMEBACK. YOU MAY EVEN SEE A LUCITE TOP OR BLOUSE. IT'S WHATEVER, WHENEVER AND THE DESIGNERS KNOW THIS . WE ARE ON A ROLLERCOASTER OF FASHION. SO DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES, HOLD ON, AND DO BUCKLE UP, CAUSE LOOKSTOENVY IS IN THE SEAT NEXT TO YOU. DON'T BE AFRAID ITS FASHION, IT'S COUTURE, IT'S MODERN, IT'S SEXY, IT'S FLATTERING, IT'S HOT, IT'S EXCITING, IT'S BREATHTAKING, IT'S MIND-BLOWING, IT'S GORGEOUS, IT'S SHOCKING AND IT MAKES ME SCREAM!!!!
