Flower Polly:

The flower child behind the game?-Danimezza

This weeks theme-

I'm really like the whole tom boy in a dress thing thats happening in fashion at the moment:

Doc martins (or ankle boots) with a dress give a cute twist, especially with such a girly print.

Add a blazer and a cute tote for a relaxed feminine look.

Keep make up light and simple with nude nails and lips & then just a touch of mascara and eyeliner.

Finish with a touch of your favorite perfume and a long necklace of some simple accessories.

whats your favorite way to wear flowers?..

As summer is almost over, every girl is eager to find out the next fall/winter 2010-2011 fashion trends. Military, '50s and '70s, minimalist, and androgynous are some of the styles that better characterize this season's trends, reflecting the woman wearing them through versatility and pragmatism.
When talking about fall/winter 2010-2011 fashion trends, practicality, versatility, and moderation are the best words that one can use in order to describe them. It's all about wearable items and tempered colors. As for the main approaches, there are a few that really stand out, such as the military style, the '50s and the '70s style, or the masculine look. Here are the main fashion trends for fall/winter 2010-2011.

The military style for fall/winter 2010-2011 means, first of all, chic. And if there is one basic piece to keep in mind and in which you should invest, that is the aviator jacket, made from leather or shearling, and inspired by the aviators from the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. Military coats, the aviator jacket, golden buttons, emphasized shoulders, kasatchok pants and boots, khaki and green are some of the main elements of the military style seen on the catwalks at Burberry Prorsum, MaxMara, Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Dries Van Noten, and Etro.

fall 2011 fashion

This fall, there is a diverse range of intricate colors. They all bear a shade of autumn. For the winter, khaki, beige and navy blue made ample exhibits. Let’s now run around the fall sheet and find what’s in vogue.

Most significant trend perhaps is the military print. Khaki naturally leads the pack. The Burberry’s and Etro’s are already singing its praises. Beige is doing well over camel. At Gucci, they are present in nude, deglamorized shades. At Chanel, they come in ivory whites. The same is the case for Calvin Klein. This fall, black has been substituted by grey at large.

Polly in tights-

The diva behind the game?-Danimezza

This weeks theme-

Tights are a must for every girls wardobe-

they are so comfy and fun, and turn really short dresses & semi-fancy dresses into "acceptable for daylight & civilised society" dresses.

This Rose-magenta colour is my addiction at the moment, so i had to choose this beautiful tunic!

( i love the sleeves!!!)

Teamed with black pumps and the beautiful Balenciaga bag (<3); it's perfect for city shopping.

For accessories add a multi-layer necklace for length, and some chuncky bangles for added dazzle.

With this look dramatic black liner, volume mascara, a nude lip & some black nail polish is all you need.

Light curly waves work perfect with this outfit complamenting the relaxed sleeves of the tunic!

Whats your favorite thing to wear with tights?..

love.x.

Engagement Ring Pics

Engagement Ring

With increasing awareness of the cruelty caused by diamonds, the tanking economy, and changing fashion trends, diamonds have become less popular as an engagement ring choice in the past several years. If you want to get engaged but want no part in the diamond trade or don’t want to pay for a diamond, you may be wondering if it’s possible to get a beautiful and durable engagement ring without getting a diamond. Here are some alternative options:

Sapphires
Sapphires are most frequently thought of as blue stones, but they come in a variety of colors, from pink to clear. If you like the look of diamonds but hate the cost and cruelty associated with them, white sapphires can be an excellent option. Additionally, sapphires are almost as hard as diamonds, making them a beautiful and durable choice. Sapphires make a beautiful center stone on an engagement ring, and are also great as side decoration stones. There are numerous sites specializing in sapphire engagement rings, but www.brilliantearth.com has some of the prettiest settings, and they guarantee that all of their stones are conflict-free.

Moissanite
Moissanite looks so much like a diamond that when it was discovered in the early 20th century, it was mistaken for a diamond! This stone actually comes from a meteor, but is now typically manufactured in a lab. Moissanite can be almost as expensive as diamonds, but the lab manufactured varieties are cheaper. If you like the look of diamonds but don’t want to contribute to the diamond trade, moissanite is an excellent choice. Check out www.moissanitediamond.com

Cubic Zirconia
Cubic Zirconia has been much-maligned as a cheap, trashy version of a diamond. But the truth is this is just the diamond industry trying to convince you to buy diamonds. High quality CZ’s are indistinguishable from diamonds to the naked eye, and almost as hard as diamonds. There are now many websites that provide beautiful CZ settings with gorgeous gemstone sidestones. You can even get a diamond ring you like custom made with CZ for much cheaper. Check out www.ziamond.com for some cubic zirconia works of art.
