THE THREE F'S - Fringe, Fur and Feathers!

Yes the final F word has been revealed and you cringed a little when you saw it - but before you turn away and reject it - just have a look at the fringes below...They are sexy, gorgeous and make you want to rock them! The accessories, the dresses and gotta love the BANGS! (Maybe because that is my hairstyle haha) I absolutely love Versace's take on fringes, definitely made something known for hideous cowboy propaganda and elvis jackets into a seductive sexy detail on a dress!
Just to remind everybody of how hideous a fringe COULD BE - I've included some images below - hehe....yummy isn't it????
It seems to be easy to do fringe the wrong way - but the designers that were capable of making it WOW should get an applause...I'm so jaded by the ugly fringe that I would have never thought to design something that even involved a fringe...but talent is talent and congrats to them! AND BOOOOOO for those who tried and failed! Better luck next time! If they are still in business....

THE THREE F'S - Fur, Feathers and F?!

O yes I have just revealed my 2nd F word! FURRRRRR!!! (The 3rd one will be revealed tomorrow)
All about furrr, anything furrry whether its a coat, a bag or even a live pooch, FUR is hottttt right now! Literally! And what better way to stay warm in this terrible winter weather? Doesn't matter if you're against real fur, there are many beautiful pieces that are animal friendly like BEBE's Faux Fur Vest!
Fur is luscious and bold and been around for ages yet the trend has never died. This year seems to be a BIG year for fur! Check out this fashion site for Andrea Uku's page on Street Style and all the fur she's been finding! Its definitely a common piece in everybody's wardrobe! The great thing about it, is that there are so many variations of this trend and you can find it in almost any way you fancy it, whether its a HUGE fur coat or a simple trim on a collar.
Fur was commonly associated with wealthy women and men and lets not forget that it was an actual form of currency from the 1500's to 1900's. It wasn't as popular after that but was always considered a precious piece and only the richest of the rich had it...Now everyone can afford it - Darn!
By the way - I had to add in those disgusting Trapper Hats because as much as I hate it - someones loving it! HAHA

BIGGER IS BETTER!

BIGGER IS BETTER! Bigger, longer, bolder! That's what she said right!!! Well designers all over the world are reflecting this trend. These are some key pieces to add to your wardrobe to stay current and to spice it up! Oh and by the way...get your mind out of the gutter!!!
BIGGER IS BETTER! That's right! I said it - to catch all you dirty little minds hahaha but it is in fact true - whether it is a basic fabric/belt or it is elaborate, it is making a BIG statement! This also brings back the sexiness of corsetry. TIP - Ladies, this is also a nice way to cinch the waist and have it appear small!
LENGTH MATTERS - Well at least with thigh high boots it does! To each their own in any other way but in fashion right now - Length Matters! Even though these ladies are covered practically head to toe it is still such a sexual trend and is associated with prostitution or should I say sexual activity. I think this is why I feel some people are holding back - but you will follow...soon haha

CHUNK-A-LICIOUS - Kind of sounds like a big chunky chocolate cookie - but WRONG. This trend is showing that it does not matter the material of these gorgeous bangles, whether metal or wood grain but that we should be pimping out our wrists and showing off our outrageous side.

ELABORATE NECKS - this here is showing that we do not need to show off our seductive neck to sexify our outfit! Not only are these necklaces the main focus, whereas normally people want it to be their face but they are pairing it with these wild outfits that have just as much going on. Does this mean that there are more ugly people emerging and designers are trying to hide it???? haha oops

CAGE-A-LICIOUS! Throw me in a cage and lock me away!

Please tell me what BIRD CAGES and FASHION have in common!!!! EVERYTHING!!! Check out these fab pieces that are proving that any item can be a hot commodity if the great designers believe in it! From shoes to bags to dresses to pants and even FULL on bird cages! Now lets not get too into this fashion - I really don't want to have to start wearing bird cages just to stick with the hottest trends...how long will this stick? NO CLUE! But they have transitioned some really nice pieces from this thematic. What will I find next...AHHHHH you will just have to wait and see :)
Completely boggled by this one - how does a bird cage make it on the runway of Valentino? Was he on drugs? HAHAHA

Cages in the bedroom - NOW we are talking! Something I can see as more acceptable for those sex freaks! Leave it up to Jean-Paul Gaultier to take care of that!
Maison Martin Margiela....really??? I can just imagine the pinching going on when any wrong movement is made... The bags are more realistic, marketable and NORMAL! Well done Mr Marc Jacobs!

EXTREMELY hot! Nice take on showing the legs but not too much of it - unskanky - GOOD job fellow designers! This is an item I'd definitely want to buy to sexify myself ;)

Chanel is showing the importance of this trend by having it show multiple times in the fall winter collection - Love the booties! and it seems that they are lined with a nude fabric to create the optical illusion of the skin showing - SEXY!

VERSACE - I have nothing more to say here - Donnatella has always kept it sassy! Inevitable from her!

Alexander Mcqueen - not quite marketable but a nice piece to have on the catwalk. Chanel - AGAIN - using the cage influence - LOVE those earrings! BCBG - always current with the trends.
Love love LOVE these key pieces!
