Hair Trends: Fishtail Braid

2012-02-22T14:28:00.000-08:00

The Fishtail Braid has been swimmingly popular for some time now. From the runway to everyday, we love the way people are knotting it up!

It looks like a more complicated braid, but it's just as simple as its plainer alternatives.

Michelle Williams as Jen Lindley on Dawson's Creek

Michelle Williams rose to fame as Jen Lindley on Dawson's Creek. She played the role of a young rebellious teen so well that it's a bit of surprise to see her grow-up to be the stylish, prim and proper lady she is now.

What to wear: Party Time

2012-02-19T13:26:00.000-08:00

You just got invited to the biggest party of the year. Everyone you know will be there. Your friends, your friends' friends, and even their friends will be present. What on earth do you wear?

A wise man named Karl Lagerfeld once said "One is never over-dressed or under-dressed with the little black dress." We, of course, trust his genius.

Gabrielle Union's outfit is flawless in that it can translate to just about any event. Paired with peep-toes and a relaxed up-do, we love this look on her!

If you're looking for a dress to go with any occasion, big or small, we suggest a little black dress. Black is a slimming color that will never go out of style and will make just about anything look expensive!

Victoria Beckham knows how to pull off just about any look. She's shown here wearing wide-leg trousers, with bright orange pumps, and a plain black tank. But what really drew our eyes was her gray rabbit fur neck-wrap. We love the contrast of textures and hope to see more of this look soon!

Trend: Tweed

2012-02-15T13:00:00.000-08:00

Mixed Meaning Wedges at Threadsense.com

Tweed, most specifically herringbone is popping up everywhere. Although winter's melting down, it's not too late to sport this micro-chevron print.

We think this print looks super cute on this shoe found here.

Hair Trends: Pixie

It's been a long run for long voluminous hair and pixie cuts are creeping their way into the spotlight.

Sport this cut with a bold color like Michelle Williams. Prim and proper but vibrantly hued, we love this look on her!

Amp up your make up like Ri-ri to contrast a boyish style. Vibrant lipcolor is great for spring! Don't be afraid to try out new hues, wear it like you own it!

Or go au naturale like Once Upon a Time's Ginnifer Goodwin. She definitely has the cheekbones to pull this off, and looks totally fab without overdoing her do.

Make-up Trend: Red Lips

Emma Stone / Selena Gomez / Taylor Swift / Dianna Agron

If you're searching for a way to brighten up your face, there's no better way to make your make-up pop than radiantly red lips! If you're feeling bold go for a darker scarlet like Emma Stone's, or opt out for a cherry soda red like Taylor Swift's, you'll see why we're crazy about red lips!

Fashionista: Elizabeth Olsen

2012-01-31T16:00:00.000-08:00

Via Harper's Bazaar & Telegraph

We are absolutely smitten with actress Elizabeth Olsen's style. Not that being fashionable is something foreign to her, being the younger sister of fashion designers Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. She's like the fresh-faced, youthful version of the twins and we simply love the fact we're seeing more and more of her.

Whether she's walking the red carpet or the streets of NY, this girl just knows how to pull it together from head-to-toe!

Screen Actors Guild Awards Fav's

2012-01-30T16:04:00.000-08:00

The Screen Actors Guild Awards was just last night and our eyes are still glittering with all the glitz and glam that made their way down the red carpet. Here are our top picks!

Viola Davis // Dianna Agron // Natalie Portman // Jayma Mays

1. Viola Davis in Marchesa, Best Actress winner of the night for "The Help". Viola looks stunning in white with gold details at the bodice. Paired with a 20's bob hairstyle and simple accessories, she dresses up in this simple look flawlessly.

2. Dianna Agron in Carolina Herrera, star of Glee. Dianna is absolutely lovely in this fuchsia dress with a ruffled detail at the neckline. Her hair is our favorite part about her look. It looks like her hair is twisted across to give the appearance of a headband. We love it!

3. Natalie Portman in Giambattista Valli and Harry Winston. Did she really have a baby this past year? She looks better than ever in this haute couture gown by Giambattista Valli and in Harry Winston jewels. Chic and elegant in brown with a fitted bodice and ruffle detailing.

4. Jayma Mays in Reem Acra, star of Glee. This Reem Acra dress is amazing on Jayma Mays. It looks like they pulled the night out of the sky and sewed it into a dress perfect for Jayma. She pulls the look together with her hair pulled back and with eye-catching accessories.

These were our top favs, what were yours?

This photo epitomizes the quote “Mistakes are happy accidents.” We took this shot by accident while we were messing with the camera settings during a photoshoot. Besides the fact that our model’s face is cut off, we think it came out rather nice!

Fashion is the same way in that wardrobe mistakes can become stylish trends. Destroyed jeans, tights with runs through them, and crop tops are a few trends that were birthed from unintended mistakes. Who knows? Maybe that hole in your sock will become its own trend one day!

Happy Monday, everyone!

Today we wanted to bring braids into the fashion spotlight. Braided hairstyles are lovely and give off a look of romance and boho chic! Pictured is Hannah from our corporate office and we love her hairdo today! Classic braided across to mimic a headband, she says this hairdo was inspired by a look she saw on Lookbook!

We think this hairdo would go perfect with this playful romper!

Hope you’re all having a great start to your week! :)
