Marie Claire SA October Issue

The October issue of Marie Claire SA featured a ballet inspired editorial, initially i thought this was a boring idea and an obvious way of escaping creativity, but taking a second look at this editorial, the art part of me embraced it even if the fashion side of me was finding it hard. The black and white photography technique feels so right and appropriate for this editorial.

CROP your way to the TOP

The crop top has been seen over the years,exposing body parts in very fashionable ways,as part of the SS 2011 trend the crop top is not all about exposing the whole stomach,but about finding elegant new ways of showing a peep of toned midriff.

Get an idea of the trend and do it just right.

There were lots of btright colors accentuating both the eyes and lips giving the girls of the runway bold statements,if you are not that much into popping colours,there are also lots of statement colours that would definately get you noticed.

The Bib necklace is presently on the rise in the high fashion scene,but a great way to toughen any look is by throwing on a piece like PHILIP LIMS CRYSTAL EMBELLISHED BIB NECKLACE.

The military inspired jacket

Jackets have very resurrecting power on every dieing closet,but a military inspired jacket is a way of getting with the trend this season,thay can add an instant recognizable  effect on any outfit.

My pick for today is the silk-blend tweed military inspired jacket by BALMAIN.

With bold structured shoulders and gold military decoration, Balmain’s instantly recognizable navy trophy jacket is a sensational investment piece. Wear this statement silk-blend topper to upgrade sleek tailored separates and simple LBD’s with inimitable edge.

Erykah Badu wears the cock

Erykah Badu has never disappointed me when it comes to her sense of style,and just when you think she’s gotten to her limit,the honey is just about to take another leap.

Erykah’s new look has chosen its own path and cant be mistaken with any other.
