9.NEW FASHION TREND.9

Nail art is becoming more and more popular amongst the population. Especially on the runway! We are not just talking about the little flowers you get on your index finger when you're about to go on vacation. Geometric prints, mismatching polishes, gems, and even fabrics!

More and more nail art is becoming popular. There are even blogs and social media pages dedicated JUST to nail art.

Time to go get my nails done!

Heres a picture of some nail art I got at New York Comicon:

8.LOOKBOOK.8

Lookbooks are a perfect way for a company to show off their clothes styled with creative thought out outfits. The lookbook that really caught mine is the NastyGal (.com) shoe cult lookbook promoting their new launch of shoes.

this lookbook takes a little turn on the creative artsy side but thats probably what makes me love it so much! Showing off all of the amazing shoes NastyGal has to offer and showing it on real people and styled differently rather than just product shoots.

NastyGal is an online clothing company: you can find the lookbook here

7.Isabel Marant Trunk Show S/S14.7

Isabel Marant Trunk Show

The s/s 14 Isabel Marant trunk show is absolutely stunning. Not many in your face loud colors. A lot of ruffled fabrics for the summer time but what girl doesn't love ruffles? A lot of muted colors which seems to be in for this SS14 - the season of no color. Marant's trunk show has a very dainty girly feel to the collection with some fun whimsical vibes.
The silhouette of all of the garments show a fun simple girly shape to all of them. Showing a lot of leg and some skin which totally makes the collection more sexy than little-girly.
The collection makes me anticipate the warm weather that seems to be months and months away.

5.MATCH MAKER, MATCH MAKER SPARK UP A MATCH COVERED IN COLOR.5

                                           

The color that seems to be taking over all the fall clothing this season happens to be ox blood. Been there done that! Ox blood has been around since last fall and I'm actually starting to see the color navy taking over more and more articles of clothing other than frumpy trousers and blazers. Navy always is hiding in the shadows of every season but now it is time for it to step out into the spotlight. This season navy is one of this fall's biggest trend colors. I happen to have a few pieces of clothing catch my eye not only because of the silhouette, but because of the beautiful deep dark color of navy. I fell in love with a navy faux leather bustier that I found in Zara. Zara also is featuring a bunch of navy items.

Ah! Black and blue, blond and blu if you couldn't tell I love the color combination of these two dark colors. Some people don't mix black and blue but I think they are crazy for not doing it!

Prada: Working Girl

By CATHY HORYN

"If Miuccia Prada’s spring men’s show, in June, led people astray with its “Menacing Paradise” theme, set in the tropics, her women’s collection on Thursday night in Milan was a slap in the face, Cher style. It put across a strong physical attitude, not merely a tough-girl snarl.That was partly to do with the sports elements, like sleeveless viscose knit dresses, ribbed leg warmers with varsity stripes, and Prada’s version of the web sandal (sure to be a summer hit). There were also cheerleading references in the box-pleated skirts and schoolgirlish coats, now freckled with colored stones and other Prada details that keep you engaged.And typically you wonder, “What’s up, Miuccia?”Not so much this time. The fabrics — wools, screen-printed silks, viscose knits — were classic Prada, as was the chunky embroidery on many of the shift and coat shapes. The big difference this season was the reproduction of various illustrations and paintings of women. The Prada show space has a display of murals, “In the Heart of the Multitude,” by muralists such as Gabriel Specter and Stinkfish, and illustrators like Jeanne Detallante. Among the themes these artists explored are femininity, multiplicity and power.And that was essentially the message Ms. Prada wanted to put across in her clothes. Strong women, fighting women. “It was a very personal collection for me,” she said backstage.The clothes ranged from relatively simple sportswear to lavish compositions of printed mink and embroidery on shifts or coats. To my eye, the viscose knits looked particularly fresh, and I liked the transparently muscular attitude. (Britney Spears’s “Work Bitch” was on the soundtrack.) Since Raf Simons used Brian Calvin’s paintings of women on T-shirts in his spring 2013 men’s collection, and Warhol’s 1950s shoe illustrations on bags in his fall 2013 Dior show, I was a bit surprised that Ms. Prada went with the idea of reproduced feminine portraits. They’re on bags, too.She does treat the images with the intensity of poster art, and then adds Prada symbolism. But apparently there is less and less time for ideas to settle and marinate before they’re taken up by someone else and attacked in a different way."this article can be found here.

I liked Ms. Horyn's review on Prada's SS collection. She reviews this show in such detail as if you were sitting right next to her at the runway show. Also I like how you cannot tell if she loved or hated the show unless stated in the articles because she breaks down everything piece by piece. Cathy lets you know if she didn't like the music but did like the clothes. She could have explained the colors used in the show to give more detail to what she saw but other than that the article really puts in perspective how the Prada show was through her eyes.
