Fashionable iPhone covers

Hi guys!

This week I was wondering about how much iPhone covers are important for an iPhone owner and how can they set the trend right now.

The most asked smart phone is iPhone 4G and is selling too much from the very first day of its launch. And since the purchasing is growing, makers of mobile phone cases did their superlative to make cellphone cases for iPhone 4 G.

When you buy an iPhone the first thing you'll buy as well is a cover that represent you, your lifestyle and also your nature. So it's really hard to find the right cover for you!

Well, two days ago I was wandering on the net searching some covers and I found a fantastic online shop called  All that you ever wanted. I totally loved their covers at the first sight, they are fashionable, glamour and nearly unavailable in the shops. They are a bit expensive but really cool and I think you will find several of them that suit you perfectly! When you will buy one of them you are ready to hit the street and go wherever you want, also to a glamour social event.

Below you find my favorites.

Ponchos and leather mark Hermes show

In his third collection for Hermes, the house of the jet-setting fashion buyer, Christophe Lemaire flew business-class to Argentina, where he reworked the iconic Gaucho look in an accomplished fall-winter display.

The first piece introduced gentle, hanging silhouettes: a long fringed cape in navy blue was worn like a South American poncho. While wide low-slung pleated gaucho pants mixed with sumptuous nude leathers — the house's signature material — that were so soft, they moved as if they were living and breathing. There were nods to the season's must-have, the boxy-jacket, with one charcoal number reworked on a high white collar, in the style of Spanish equestrian garb. But Hermes, in typical style, was all about comfort. The relaxed look was perfected with subtle contrasting pieces: a coat was so cool it hung from one shoulder, yet also had the fierceness of a matador cape. Lemaire's interest in orientalism is nothing new. But Sunday saw the theme restyled in a series of pajama-inspired dresses with intricate Persian prints that could be worn by women of all ages. And indeed the show saw models in their 40s walk down the runway.

I would apologize about the low quality of the pictures but I can't find better one.

Men's S/S 2012 Outfit Ideas

It’s almost spring and I’m sure you’re wondering: what am I going to wear when the temperatures are starting to rise?

Well, I hope you have enough clothes from last year. Remember that you have to have a timeless wardrobe if you don't want to seem out-of-date. If you did that last year, this year you shouldn’t have too much to worry about… except maybe buying this or that.

Let’s see where the designer houses are steering trends away THIS year. And we’re going to start with…

D&G

Lots of colors and lots of foulard prints in the D&G collection. They propose a very relaxed look this year and, trust me, you’ll feel relaxed just by looking at the clip below:

Did you notice how much denim they have? Ok, we get the hint!

Here’re are some more interesting things I noticed with them:

• Those waistbands on the pants really make for a casual look. If you’re looking to look really casual this summer, you probably need a pair.
• The hats look great but what’s even greater is the way they matched them with the rest of the outfits. It’s worth taking another look at the clip just for this.
• I spotted a really nice pair of moccasins as well as some butt-ugly sneakers. As style hobbyists we have to learn to separate the good from the ugly.

Gucci

Classy as always, Gucci is showing us some really nice sports jackets along with well fitted rolled up pants. You can really see the difference by comparison with the D&G collection from before.

One of the best pieces in my opinion was that gray glen check suit, black moccasins and light blue shirt. I’ve also seen a glen check sports jacket paired with solid grey chinos, if you’re not a “suit guy”.

I noticed very few colors if any. Mostly black, white, grays and some brown. That’s Gucci all right.

One outfit did catch my eye as it took the black tie dress code and gave it a twist: black dinnerjacket with silk lapels, white shirt, black bow-tie. So far so good. Then glen check pants, black shiny penny loafers and no socks. Is this the future of black tie?

Overall, you’ll find Gucci to be a good business casual inspiration, as always.

Ermanno Scervino

This show by Ermanno Scervino can teach you one great thing if you watch it: how to match grays. Totally love this designer.

Vivienne Westwood

Although I wouldn’t wear most of these outfits on the street, they did gave me a few color matching ideas.

Bottega Veneta

This is probably the most balanced collection that we’ve seen for SS 2012. It’s balanced, wearable, not too much color and most of the outfits have good contrasts. If you’re looking to get inspired this summer, you should definitely watch it.

Revolutionary Topman LFW 2012

It’s been brewing all season. From Kenzo’s romantic Hawaiian idyll to Givenchy’s menacing tropical prints, Comme des Garcons’ layered pyjamas to Walter Van Beirendonck’s exuberant Caribbean patchworking and even the obliquely tribal swagger of Christopher Shannon’s monochrome tassels. But it was Topman Design who pulled all that latent, vividly eclectic globetrotting energy together, a rich, decadent Marrakesh blitz of sunburnt colours and languid silhouettes.

For a whole generation of postwar writers, artists and designers – from Bowles to Genet to Saint Laurent – the louche exoticism of Morocco represented a luxurious modern Eden, ripe with guiltlessly hedonistic sensuality.

But the success of the Topman team’s spin on this well-trodden route lay in adding a blast of breezily modern youthfulness. Intricate scarf patterns and psychedelic landscape prints were tempered with taut, long-line tailoring in sombre urban shades. jackets and silk shorts skewed the silhouette in a relaxedly schoolboyish direction, emphasised by loosely-tousled banded knits in slabs of earthy colour.

Bohemian in spirit but coolly urban in its’ execution, (and evocative of Scottish designer John Ray’s underrated work at post-Ford Gucci) this latest outing from Topman Design was a further step in its’ evolution into a standalone menswear voice, mining iconic period reference and filtering through its’ own distinctively London Edge.

5FWS RECOMMENDED OUTFITS

As you know I love man clutch and I think they are really fashionable and trendy. I really appreciate that Topman re-invented it and put it in his S/S 2012 collection. I also love bulging jackets and straight leg trousers.

Totally in love with those extra shorts in chic fabric and this floral shirt.

Make up of the season!

1. Eyebrows — Brows are large and in charge this season, brushed up and bushy, well groomed or even lightened, but they are a detail that has not been ignored. At Altuzarra, Tom Pecheux blackened the brows using brow pencils and black eye shadow!

2. Healthy Skin (Athleticism) — Very hydrated skin that is perfected with foundation. You are seeing this on the runways of Carolina Herrera, DVF and Doo.Ri. We use a lot of product to make it look effortless and like a perfect canvas. M·A·C Cosmetics foundation in Face & Body andM·A·C Cosmetics Matchmaster Foundation are being used consistently backstage. M·A·C PRO Basic Red Pigment mixed with M·A·C PRO Lash Mixing Medium to create bright, bold, red lashes which matched the bold lippy as well.

3. Pops of bold color all over — We are even seeing RED on eyes. This season, at Katie Gallagher, Javier Romero used M.A.C Basic Red pigment mixed with MAC PRO Lash Mixing Medium to create bright, bold, red lashes which matched the bold lippy as well.

4. Washes of soft color (pastels) — Soft blends of metallics at Elie Tahari gave a warm glow to the eyes and skin. Try using M·A·C Cosmetics Goldmine Eye Shadow and M·A·C PRO Shine Mixing Medium. At Preen, Val Garland gave the girls the look of fresh innocence by using new for Spring/Summer 2012 Preferred Pink and Fully Ripe lip colors on the cheeks and then adding a sweet peach accent to the lips with M·A·C Cosmetics Tendertone in Purring.

The art of trench

There are many other ways to wear a trench coat without covering your whole outfit. For one, you can keep it unbuttoned, and wear some bold accessories. Many choose the scarf, and if you want to know different kinds of scarves you can wear that looks great check out my article on scarfs. Another accessory is the hoop earring. It looks very cute with the trench coat just be sure that if you have a dark shade of color silver is great, and if it is a light shade gold is amazing! Trench coats I think are made to wear in the winter, but in the warmer days a cute patterned skirt looks very cute, with a purse! In this picture her outfit looks great, right? Who wouldn't want to buy the coat after seeing how classy and sophisticated it can look. Now they can be very pricey so it is important to make sure your buying the coat for the right price.

TIP: try looking at the fabric it's made out of, it can really help to see if your buying an expensive one that is a cheap fabric or the other way around. So go out and buy one in your favorite color, and have fun dressing it up and down in so many mix n' match ways. You can buy a Burberrys one but you can also have a look at Zara or H&M and you will be satisfied!

Surprisingly, very few men wear a trench coat nowadays despite its enduring heritage. I hope this article changes that, as the trench coat is a classic garment that can add a punch of handsome to any outfit a man wears. In summary, the trench coat’s ability to meet the demands of warfare enabled it to survive for decades before being picked up by the public. When it did find its way into the civilian wardrobe, its heritage and usefulness made it an indispensable item. And so my question is – what’s stopping you from wearing one?
