Fall 2012 Trend Report: Splashes Of Leather!

     What's more powerful than sleek buttery looking leather on a woman?  Not much.  We've seen the whole leather from head to toe get up and this season designers have decided to take it down a notch, mix up the conservative with the broad-minded.  Below you can see how they have mixed leather with lace, knits sweaters, oversized beaded blazer and you can also see that we aren't just working with your traditional fixed black color.  If you are feeling a tad edgy and you want to add something to your prim and proper outfit, why not grace it with the presence of leather?  

     Leather is always controversial in the ever so competitive world of fashion.  You have your die hard vegans and your genuine leather thirsters.  Due to our fast paced world of technology and fabric development we have pleather, plastic leather.  If I may say so myself, it's quite fabulous and is a true representation of unadulterated leather, when made correctly.  So there you have it.  Everyone can be happy and trendy, no matter what their political views are!

Get With It!

       Summer is finally here and it is time to start dressing like it.  Here are some great fashion tips, feel free to mix and match!

Giddy Up

            Saddle up because country western is back.  Graphic tees, leather goods, metal charms, feathered accessories, native patterns they are all popular this season.  Think simplicity with a spark!

Funky Fringe

            Talk about statement piece.  Let your hair down, your wild side out and flow loosely in the wind with your funky fringe.  Front, back and side-to-side.

Tangled Knit

            Although torn up sweaters don’t seem to make much sense they are thriving in the fashion world.  Layering is the best way to use these garments.  Whether you are covering up your bathing suit or heading out on the town, tattered knits are the way to go.  Vintage, easy and eye catching.

Let your colors show!
