Shoe Mania


Its interesting to see how trends evolve from being experimental to religiously followed fashions. Shoes are the most important accessory being as important as clothes and also contributing to maximum sales in any stores. Various kinds of colorful sneakers have been done by a lot of fashion brands such as Nike, Puma and Adidas but its not just the sneaker companies anymore. These shoes are from some store in London and they effectively demonstrate good use of colors to make a perfect example of stylishly fashionable, fun footwear.

Whip it !


I saw this movie(Whip It) last week and it was great to see how certain trends like Punk and Hiphop keep evolving in new ways. This roller derby flick is all set to revive the harsh punk look to make it more soft and dewy and the inorganized hiphop look to a more chic one. Ellen Page has a very relaxed style of the 80's with leggings, skirts and t's and she has enough Impact to inspire a whole new generation. The movie has great reviews and might as well genrate a new trend called the Derby girl trend!

I Love The New Ann


Ann Taylor has revamped its target customer image and is back with all new cutting edge designs with more younger and sexy appeal to it.The stiff  is soft ! The styles are more modern and offered at great prices!These pictures were clicked at a free standing store in Union Square displaying some of the new designs silhouttes, fashion collages and giving discount cards to people who went inside. Also the company has done a great deal of outdoor promotion on NYC busses and some of the prime payphone locations. And I think the effort is worth it, people have noticed the brand and it seems to be doing well at the retail level.

Couture Fashion Show or Catastrophe

 Yesterday, I went to New York City's Webster Hall Club to attend the NYC Couture Fashion Show in order to observe some trends and start this blog. But the show was a complete disaster. The picture here shows one of the designs worn by a singer performing live at the show. The designs looked as if they were designed for some punk artists or probably even they would refuse to wear those hideous costumes. Also a very
intresting thing to note these days would be that people are dressing up more casually for these social events than ever before. Is this good or bad..........?
