Posted in Beauty Resources, Drapes, Shopping Portal by admin on the October 5th, 2009

In reality, Anna Wintour loves her Prada and has been seen wearing the brand’s sunglasses countless times through her reign at the magazine.

Choosing Smart Party Dresses for a Party

Posted in Drapes, Shopping Portal by admin on the September 10th, 2009

Someone that finds themselves going out a lot and meeting trendy folks as part of their job is probably going to be looking for something that little bit different when they have got a work related function to attend. That might include the most recent dress through to a lovely little black dress. At the other end of the spectrum our solicitor in her 20’s has to get the balance right between being perceived as being completely excessive and simply appearing as formal as she does at work. In this example the black party dress may still be appropriate it just depends how radical the design is. It is really all about expectancies your expectations and the degree that you flourish on being different and never forgot the expectancies of your colleagues, bosses and folk who will be making calls about your future career trail.

An alternative way of looking at the going out dresses dilemma is to consider how others see the world versus how you do. The 60 year old solicitor who has spent his life in a old fashioned legal firm in a little town is going to have a complete set of conventions about the world and expectations about how people ( particularly his staff ) are going to operate within those rules. On the other hand the 55 years old fashion designer with long hair is going to have a completely different set of principles and values and therefore a different set of expectations about what’s satisfactory in a certain context.

When it comes down to it we are all individuals with varying body shapes which suit different trends at different times. Think about the context where you’ll be seen in your dress, consider about your shape ( been spending much time in the gymnasium recently? ) and think about expectations of the people you are seeing.

Giorgio Armani Combines High End with Less Expensive Offerings

Posted in Beauty Resources, Drapes, Shopping Portal by admin on the August 31st, 2009

With today’s struggling economy, the latest trend in fashion is the High-Low. For years mixing high end items with low priced items has been de riguer for trendsetters and tastemakers. Now that many are dealing with financial hardships, the high-low has become a new way of life. Having last season’s Armani Prive and mixing it with a Target shirtdress is the new coping mechanism of the financially aware fashionista. The easiest way to incorporate the high-low into your wardrobe is through high end accessories. This is an instant way to perk up an outfit. Since the first thing people see is your face, start with eyewear.

A welcomed addition to the already existing accessories lines, Giorgio Armani eyeglasses and sunglasses are offered at comparatively reasonable price points. This allows shoppers to rejuvenate their existing closets without spending a fortune. Available at Bloomingdale’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Eyeglasses.com, Giorgio Armani eyewear takes any outfit and brings it from ordinary to outstanding. With a simple transition from day to evening and casual to dressy, Giorgio Armani eyeglasses are worth the price tag and more inexpensive than the much higher end items available in the designer’s collection.

With an uncanny knack for making lemonade out of financially challenged lemons, today’s consumers are incorporating the high-low philosophy into every aspect of their current lifestyle. As a whole, our culture has been living beyond its means for some time now. The high-low adds a much needed equalizer to our lives and allows us to continue to exercise our consumer habits while adjusting to our new lower budgets.

Choosing between Glasses and Contacs

Posted in Beauty Resources, Drapes by admin on the March 20th, 2009

While plenty of people still wear specs, there is little doubt that they’re on the way out. There is no doubt that inserting them in your eyes and taking them out can be a little scary initially, but once you’re used to it they are a good deal more handy than wearing bulky specs on your face, not to mention almost invisible, even when people who get up close to your eyes.

Vanity is not the lone cause to get into contacts, though. For many people, it is just more practical - they work better for sport or any kind of manual work, for example, where glasses could easily get damaged. contact lenses are also not subject to the many things that can go wrong with specs, such as smashing, breaking, or being afflicted by the weather (when they get rained on, for example).

If you’re just embarking into the world of contacts, though, it can feel like a bit of a labyrinth. What should you get? Hard lenses or soft? Daily lenses or monthly? Each pick comes with its rewards and disadvantages.

The simplest doubt to deal with is believably that of hard lens systems. While hard lenses are still used in many sections of the planet, this is in the main down to grounds of habit - individuals who are already using them are unlikely to switch over. To the new user, hard lenses offer no advantages, and they are incredibly uncomfortable until you get used to them. It is much better to simply go with soft lenses.

When it gets to the question of whether daily expendable lenses are best, however, there is some controversy. Once you factor in the price of cleansing solutions for monthly lens systems, there is little difference in price, but some people simply prefer not to buy and throw away so many lenses. In The End, though, daily disposables tend to be thinner and therefore more comfortable, as well as costing you less if you happen to lose one, which makes them better suited to the beginner.

Kookie Couture

Posted in Drapes by admin on the June 3rd, 2008

If you were ever a sailor, a boy scout or a girl guide you probably know what a Lanyard is. For the rest of us it’s that thing we hang around our neck to hold onto our security cards, keys and mobile phones.

It seems that almost overnight this daggy item of office apparel has suddenly become the hottest fashion accessory dangling out of the back pocket of every hip hop and happening skanky dude and dudette around town.

Once the enforced fashion faux pas of the IT Industry, its now no longer the likes of IBM or Apple we see blazoned on these nylon strings but Nike, Adidas and maybe even Prada.

It wasn’t so long ago that gay men embraced the concept of hankies hanging out their back pockets with a wide variety of colours and designs to signify a code for one’s sexual proclivities. One had to be careful to choose not only the right colour out of over fifty plus different coded designs, but also which back pocket - left or right - dominant or submissive - to hang it out of.

So is this the case with lanyards? Does one need to be careful to choose the right logo emblazed on their tag? The right colour? And of course, the right pocket to hang it out of?

And what about the right shiny metal attachment at the end? For with any fashion craze there is likely to be a whole industry accessorizing these babies to the hilt.

So why have we chosen to re-embrace these nylon strands and tszuj them up?

Is it because the metal key chains we strategically dangled from our cut-offs for the last few seasons (another takeaway from the gay community by the way) contributed so dramatically, due to their increasing weight, to dragging our pants down that now they don’t fit anymore? And all you underwear emporiums just thought we were just being trendy and showing off your label bands.

Have we been forced to seek out a new fashion accessory for hanging our keys which doesn’t ruin our clothes?

Or is it just another fad, like the yoyo, whose time will come and go. As security swipe cards fade into memory and fingerprints, eye scans and DNA tests welcome the next phase of our security conscious evolution will lanyards too just become another fashion craze that slips into folklore only to get recycled in twenty years time.

Only time will tell. But in the meantime don’t leave the house without one dangling from a pocket lest you wish to become a noughties fashion victim.

The Rich History of Body Piercing: Almost as Old as Mankind

Posted in Drapes by admin on the May 23rd, 2008

Although piercing parts of the body - other than the ears - may seem to be a recent fashion and lifestyle trend, body piercing actually has a rich history that dates back to ancient times. Whether as a means of personal expression, to designate societal standing, or as part of religious ritual, body piercing has been around almost as long as mankind.

Navel piercing: Although navel piercing is extremely popular today, in the ancient Egyptian civilization only the royal family was allowed to pierce their belly buttons - and anyone who broke this rule would be executed!

Nostril piercing: A passage from Genesis in the Bible’s Old Testament says, “…The man took out a gold nose ring….” Originating in the Middle East over 4,000 years ago, nostril piercing is still practiced by Bedouins today. Husbands present their wives with a ring at marriage, and the size of the ring denotes a family’s wealth. The practice traveled from the Middle East to India in the 17th century, where the type of jewel worn in the nose would designate social standing. Today, Indian women typically pierce their left nostril, in a spot associated with easing the pain of childbirth. Nostril piercing traveled to the West in the late 1960s, when young people searching for spiritual enlightenment in India returned home. Punk rockers and their followers adopted the practice in the 1970s, and it was revived again in the 1990s.

Tongue piercing: Tongue piercing was practiced by Aztec and Mayan priests and shamans, in the belief that it would help them better communicate with their gods.

Ear piercing: A passage from Exodus in the Bible’s Old Testament says, “He shall take him to the door or the doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl.” The oldest mummy ever found, dating back five centuries, had his ear pierced, and there is evidence that, over two centuries ago, people living on the Island of Cyprus pierced their ears. Tribes in South America and Africa would pierce their ears and stretch the holes; the larger the hole, the greater the person’s stature in the tribe. Everyone from the Romans to the Tlingit tribe in Alaska viewed ear piercing as a sign of wealth and stature. Even sailors pierced their ears, in the belief that it gave them better eyesight.

Lip piercing: Historically, Aztecs and Mayan men underwent labret piercing and wore ornamental gold labrets to distinguish themselves as members in high social standing. Among some African tribes, lip piercing carried religious significance, while others perceived labrets as beautiful body adornment, and for still others, it was part of the rite of betrothal.
