I know i haven't written for a while...long time actually...but this biting cold forced me not to. All this time,though I enjoy winters, I was thinking about the summer season because I am so tired of wearing all these layers of clothing...which make me feel like a cylindrical shaped being....and I hate that part ofcourse.
So while day dreaming of shedding the fleece, velvets and woolens....I came up with my wishlist for the next season.... :) :) And even though I know I can't afford to buy any of those things that I will be mentioning....I just can't cease to want them! So when I go out to shop for the next season...if not the originals i will look for inexpensive look alikes and replacements... :) After all you don't need to be rich to be fashionable...just should know how to work a look. Here it goes....
#1 Herve' Leger Bandage Dress
This black and bronze number with metal applique just took my heart away. Since it fits so snugly....and the assymetric neckline flatters those with blessed collar bones...I want it badly :)(even though it is from his fall 2009 collection)
It is an instatnt fix for a night party..and a definite fixation for any fashionista!
Clearly all the attributes that I gave to to my coveted blouse are going to hot trends this season. And I am sure that this kind will be easily available in your neighbourhood markets too. Since this season will be all about feminity, this blouse will be an obvious purchase. Though my personal pick will be the one with smaller prints.
No no...don't take me wrong...I don't want those old kinds of hairnet but its new avatar is what i lust for.
Vogue Italia says that hairnets will be the next big thing in its October 2009 issue. Verve India took it in a different stride in the January '10 issue with a veiled hat donned by Kangana Ranaut and Vogue Russsia advocates hairnet again in the same month! It got to mean something right??
For me it means hunting for the right peice for myself :)
# 4 Lindsay's 6126 star leggings
Lindsay Lohan launched her 6126 leggings collection together with Kerry Fitzmaurice and Kristi Kaylor in October '09 and like all hollywood celebs i too fell in love. And now I totally dig the 6126 Star....
Not only those I am finding an attraction towards other leggings in net too who don't have any brands on them...so wherever they may come from...the point is they need to come in my wardrobe1
Alexander McQueen Eiffel Tower Leggings ; Mary Meyer Spine Leggings
6126 Star leggings
Yes a swish haircut figures high on my list too....with even the Indian film industry experimenting ( where only the actresses wid traditional long hair are accepted) as I can tell is evident from Priyanka Chopra in Pyar Impossible- Bobs will be big this season...and the one that I lust after is the one with bangs. I feel the bob if worn straight and elegentaly transforms you into a chic fashionista and if worn messy gives you the attitude of 'devil may care' fashionista no? I love its utter diversity and also the fact that it can be easily transformed into a hairdo like the one given below.... I tried the same kind of puffy look recently for a formal evening and my did I love my decision so much :)
# 6 stark white Prada 08MS sunglasses and Emporio Armani 9636 blue
When it comes to sunglasses I just can't help but being greedy!!!! Clearly I want two of them under the same heading....they belong to the same category after all ;)
Anyways the ones from Prada took my heart away with their beige and brown tinted glasses. They are available in yellow and other colors too but white is a classic that will be a great anytime wear.
Then the blue ones from Emporio Armani are so close to the cat eye and the frame is in a hot color for the season and hence I want them too.
My suggestion is invest in a nice pair of sunglasses because they have the ability to transform any form of apparel into a fashion item. Belive me it works if you team it right...
# 7 A pair of nude heels
Another big trend for the upcoming season will be the nude.Whether you talk about dresses, tailored suits for work , clutches or heels....you have to have it in a soft neutral color. Beiges, soft peaches and the barely there hues are all going to be a perfect buy and my pick will be for the feet since they have an andvantage of making you look taller too. Below check out Sarah Jessica Parker in Sex and the city
Voila! I am already day dreaming and I am sure you are too.....
But there seems to be one problem though....with LFW going on and the other fashion capitals following soon...I suppose this list is far from being over! (wink)
P.S. While thinking I landed up with a wish for the next winters too....and I thought i will share it here as well..
The DKNY cozy
I read about this amazing sweater in an article this month and went bonkers over it. I know I am talking about an S/S wishlist Though it is an old invention, ( DKNY came up with it in ) it still totally rocks today. The cadet blue is the one that I would pick for myself and probably team it with white accessories! With 12 different ways of wearing it...who would not want one?
