Wear Multi-Strand Necklaces Tips
Layered necklaces are a growing trend this year, as everyone from celebs to socialites to rock stars have been spotted on the red carpets in fabulously fierce designs that steal the scene. Multi-strand necklaces can be for dressing up or dressing down, for work or for play. With so many styles, designs and settings to choose from, there's something for everyone. Here we take a look at how to wear this fashion forward trend and share some tips for pulling off a complete look seamlessly.
If you're going to rock a multi-strand necklace to dress up an evening ensemble, pearls are a great way to go. You can throw on a necklace with several strands of classic pearls. This is a more modern take on a fashion accessory staple. Natural pearls look great when set against an LBD. To mix it up a little, try a multi-strand necklace interwoven with black strands, a pendant or rhinestones. This creates a glamorous cluster effect that really makes the outfit.
You can also wear a multi-strand necklace during the day. Look for colorful beads that go with multiple outfits from your closet. Add color to plain white tank tops and t-shirts or a summer sundress. Alternatively, you can mix and match necklaces to create a unique look that is all your own. Try it out by starting with a long pendant necklace and then adding chains of varying length. Don't be afraid to mix metals like oxidized silver or hammered gold. It's these textures and patterns that make for an interesting combination. Play around with new designs until you find ones that work for you. Multi-strand necklaces are a great way to update an old favorite and keep up with of-the-moment fashion. Best of all, many of this season's designs are both extremely chic and affordable.

Brazilian Student Expelled for wearing Mini Dress
FASHION - Brazil is known for women wearing skimpy clothing, but in university students usually wears jeans and a t-shirt. However when Geisy Arruda wore a tight pink dress to class however she was accused of "immorality" by the university who says she behaving in a slutty fashion and disrespected "ethical principles, academic dignity and morality."
The incident happened on October 22nd when she had to be escorted off the campus by police.
The dress shows off quite a bit of leg, but that is about it. I've seen way worse at universities in Canada.
The private Bandeirante University backed down today on its decision to expel 20-year-old Geisy Arruda following a flood of negative reaction. The Brazilian government also came down hard on the university, giving them 10 days to clarify its reasoning for kicking out Arruda.
I smell lawsuit.

Are Niqabs and Hijabs a Fashion Statement?
FASHION/RELIGION - Have you seen any women recently wearing a Niqab or Hijab?
No, I am not talking about Conservative Muslim women. I am talking about women (of any ethnic background) wearing it as some kind of fashion statement.
And an important point is you can now buy them in brand names like Calvin Klein and GAP.
Like WTF? How did that happen? Well, its not so much that these brand name companies are getting into the business, its the fact they're making scarves/etc that can be used as such.
First lets affiliate you with some of the fashion terms:
A Hijab is basically a hood that is worn over your hair.
A Niqab (or Niqaab) is a scarf you wear over your face. A full niqab covers everything but a slit for the eyes.
There's also:
Abaya - Covers you from head to toe except for the eyes, one large piece that looks very baggy. Usually found in Pakistan.
Burqa - Like the Abaya, but it covers the eyes with semi-transparent fabric or a grille. More common in Afghanistan.
Dupatta - Popular in Pakistan, covers the head and shoulders.
Its important to note this is NOT a religious belief per se... and nor is it sexist. Many men in Arab countries also wear headwear to cover their heads. Such things include the Igal, Bisht, Ihram, Kufi / Kuffiyya / Ghutra / Shmagh, Taqiyah cap, Thawb and the more commonly known Turban.
So yes, before you go jumping to conclusions you have to realize this is a CULTURAL tradition, not a religious edict. Some Muslim women choose to wear such things and often make that choice when they are a teenager (ah, the horrors of peer pressure). In that context they see their friends wearing such things and they follow suit.
After all if you're best friend gets a tattoo, or a nose piercing or a pair of high heels... are you repressing yourself if you choose to get the same thing for yourself? No, you're making a choice. Admittedly your friend played a role in making that choice, but thats just a sign of a strong friendship.
Thus when non-Muslim women start wearing such clothing its not simply because they're trying to make a fashion statement. Sometimes they just have Muslim friends who wear such things, they look at it, realize they'd like to wear a hood or whatever, so they go out and buy it.
I myself have a fondness for hoodies, especially on rainy days. I could see myself buying a hijab someday if I found one I really liked. Does it mean I would be changing my religion? No.
Its just a fashion statement and frankly I think thats kewl. It could even be considered sexy.
Granted I am not about to run out and buy any full-length garments that cover me head to toe... they just look too much like radiation suits to me. But I could certainly see wearing a wide variety of Muslim clothing.
Let me give you an example you might not normally think of: Look at the adorable photo below of the little girl wearing a Kufi hat. Those hats are totally kewl and I WANT ONE! It has nothing to do with religion, its just plain a really kewl looking hat. Who wouldn't want one?

David Dixon, Hip to be Different
FASHION - I really like David Dixon's fashion designs. They're simple, stylish and I can see wearing them on a day to day basis. They're sexy too.
What I also like is his choice of models. He picks his models carefully, choosing not just ethnically diverse models, but also being careful to pick models who have more meat on their bones as opposed to the disgustingly thin.
"I don't even think about it," admits Dixon. "It's not a conscious decision to cast women from various ethnicities. I pick the girls I like. I pick girls I think women can relate to."
Its also smart business sense. "I get feedback from women who have a critical opinion. They want to see themselves in these clothes," says Dixon. They're more likely to buy the clothes they can see themselves wearing.
Designer Mark Fast does the same thing. A couple weeks ago he insisted on having plus-size models for his 2010 spring fashion show... which drew a lot of media attention. Fast says: "My knits respond differently to different bodies. Some looks just work better on curves."
Which sparks my belief that "Its hip to be diverse", not just by adding plus size models, but by including models from a wide range of backgrounds.
Sunny Fong for example recently hired two models: One that was a lot older, and other who was bigger. "Other cities look to this unnatural ideal of what's beautiful," says Fong who only hires models with a waist larger than 24 inches. "I've never liked skinny-skinny models. They don't suit my clothes. My target market is real women, not skinny 16-year-old girls. When I put my clothes on skinny girls, they hang like they're on a hanger. I want the body to translate the garment. On a skinny girl, it says nothing."
Curves are sexy. Show em off!

Paris Fashion Gaffs
FASHION - You know what a gaff is right? Its a mistake. Its a blooper. Its the outtake that usually doesn't make it into TV or magazine spreads.
But unfortunately in the fashion world these gaffs do make the news, and in a silly way some people actually take them seriously.
Like the two images to the right.
You see, as an artistic / creative person myself, I would be totally embarrassed to make things that look so ridiculous. They can't be worn, they can't be taken seriously, they're barely even 'art' because they're not making a statement about anything.
And the holes? What is the point of that? There's no statement there. Ripped blue jeans makes a fashion statement, but only if the rips are real. Fake rips are for poseurs.
And then there's the 1/2 dress / 1/2 business suit... WTF is that? What a complete waste of fabric.
Sometimes I swear Paris fashion designers are sniffing glue or something. They could be making fashion which actually helps people, looks good, gives people jobs, makes them look professional...
To infer from that, well-dressed people are leaders and go out and change the world. People who dress like idiots will be treated like idiots (and not taken seriously).
And they say fashion isn't important?

Lindsay Lohan's Fashion Line
FASHION - Lindsay Lohan's latest fashion for Spring / Summer 2010 was unveiled on Sunday... and frankly, what brain-dead person would wear this crap?
The brand is Emanuel Ungaro and the fashion itself was co-designed by Barcelona-born designer Estrella Archs, which is a funny way of saying Archs did most of the work. Lindsay Lohan is just the "artistic advisor".
Ungaro has been a fashion house since 1965 and fashion designer/owner Emanuel Ungaro retired from the house in 2004 at the age of 71 and in 2005 the brand was sold. Esteban Cortazar was anointed the head designer...
But pedigree aside, I'd say it still sucks.
Its too... 1980s.
And I realize some people think the 1980s is in vogue again, but frankly this is too much. I am beginning to think people are taking it too far. Its one thing to bring back the "good fashion" from the 1980s, but why would you bring back the crappy fashions too?
Oh and there was WAAAAAY too much fuchsia and pink. Sorry, that is just too Barbie Girl for me.
And before you think I am just being mean, or copying what other people are saying go ahead and Google Lindsay Lohan Ungaro and you will see there are a lot of people who hate the fashion looks being produced at the new Ungaro. There are probably a 'few' who like it, but they are in a minority.
In summary Lindsay Lohan's fashion style... 1980s pink Barbie. Its like fashion for 9 year old girls...

Take the Magnetic Bra Test
FASHION/TECHNOLOGY - There is a new bra coming to North America, and its positively and negatively attracted to itself. In case you didn't read the title of this blog post, yes its a magnetic bra.
Look ma, no hooks or clasps!
The bra is being offered by lingerie retailer La Vie en Rose, but they're not the only ones going magnetic. Wonderbra also has a new magnetic bra out being promoted by burlesque star Dita Von Teese... and not because its easy to take off, because it actually isn't as easy as it looks.
La Vie En Rose's version is called "Magnetic Attraction" and it retails for $33.95 CDN each. It also comes in three styles – the Boost push-up, the Daily lightly padded and the Au Naturel unpadded.
You see in the past attempts to make a magnetic bra always failed because the magnets were too weak to stand up to the stress of say... jumping up and down, running, or even simple tasks like bending over to pick something up.
Whoops. It popped open again.
But these new magnetic bras are MUCH MORE POWERFUL and both La Vie En Rose and Wonderbra are daring people to come into their stores and put them to the test.
Because apparently these things aren't budging. You can jiggle it, jump and dance in it, run, whatever.
The magnet's sheer strength is already annoying men too... its even harder to remove than those old hook bras, causing complaints:
Of course the bra is also causing some jokes, like what if paper clips get stuck to your shirt... or if you can't find your keys and they were stuck to your bra the entire time. Let alone problems with airport security.

Short Skirts coming Spring 2010
FASHION - All the top designers are pushing short skirts for women in Spring 2010. Below are: Prada on the left, Dolce & Gabbana in the centre and Versace on the right.
In other news where did the decade go? Its October 1st 2009 already and in only three short months it will by January 2010. Seriously, WTF. Seems like only yesterday the United States was worried about Y2K, and then George W. Bush snuck into the White House... then September 11th 2001, the War in Afghanistan that failed to capture Osama bin Laden, the War in Iraq that failed to find Weapons of Mass Destruction, the Tsunami in Malayasia, Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, the American Recession started in 2007, Barack Obama got elected in November 2008, and slow but steady economic recovery in 2009.
According to some fashion gurus the trend towards short skirts happens whenever people are short on cash. Skirts costs less than dresses, and the less fabric used often the less expensive the skirts are. Thus frugal people are more likely to buy them.
HOWEVER, predicting fashion trends based on economics are tricky. What if the economy completely rebounds by Spring 2010 and people have more cash to buy whatever they want?
Well, you see there's also a backup issue... global warming and climate change. With hotter temperatures people will be wanting more short skirts anyway, so its also a pretty safe bet people will want them since jeans/dresses will be too hot.
So my advice? If you see shorts skirts on sale and you absolutely love them and think they will be kewl to wear in the future, buy them.

Goth, Courtesan and Kabuki
FASHION/GOTHIC - East meets West, Victorian gothic meets kabuki performer and designer Marc Jacobs takes aim at trends with a scattergun.
Seeing what he did it looks like he ripped off ideas from "The King and I", "Blade Runner" and Queen Elizabeth I era fashion... victorian ruffles, gothic lolitas... mixed with army jackets and khaki trench coats.
He also deliberately played fashion don'ts... like wearing lingerie as outer wear, a luxury fanny pack and socks with sandals.
In other words... you'd never actually wear this stuff outside.
Don't get me wrong, I love gothic fashion... but I think fashion designers playing lip service to gothic culture is just lame. The things they design don't appeal to real goths, and the fashionistas like myself won't wear this crap either because:
#1. Its too expensive.
#2. Its full of fashion faux pas don'ts.
In his latest show Marc Jacobs mixed leopard prints... you know the kind that old women with dyed blond hair, gold teeth (or missing teeth!) wear... seriously. That stuff may look good on a thin fashion model, but marketing that is just a bad idea.
I swear some fashion designers are just complete hacks. They just copy whatever they see and never come up with anything original.

Stick to genuine suede in colours like camels, tans, browns and black.
Fetish Shoe Trend

Lindsay Lohan as "Artistic Adviser" by Emanuel Ungaro Hires
It's been a busy pre-Fashion Week at Chez Emanuel Ungaro, where the house has brought on a new Chief Designer, Estrella Archs, and an "Artistic Adviser"...Lindsay Lohan(?). Mounir Moufarrige, Ungaro’s chief executive officer, disclosed the appointments exclusively to WWD and is already relishing the prospect of that image running in newspapers and on Web sites around the world. "I think the noise level around Lindsay will be very, very big," anticipates Mounir Moufarrige, Ungaro's CEO, about a hoped-for Lindsanity-generated media circus surrounding the news. "Odds are it could work. Everything we’re going to get is going to be a plus.” Asked to describe her role in the creative process, Lohan said she “kind of oversees everything [Archs] does, while still working with her. "Different generations have different ideas. I’ve always played a big part in what I wear, the costumes. Clothing is something that’s so expressive in so many ways." Lohan, whose first fur coat was an Ungaro, also told WWD she hopes to take Ungaro to a “younger place” with a harder fashion edge, and then acknowledged the real reason her appointment is considered press-worthy: "I'm in a position where I’m working with a fashion house in Paris sets it apart from every other celebrity brand.”
