Hairstyle Trends: 2013

Hello everyone! So around the corner is the New Year and with 2013, many exciting things will come. I have a feeling that it will be a snowy winter here in the New York area but who can tell. I hope all my American readers had a Happy Thanksgiving. I had a great time at a beautiful restaurant off the water in New Jersey with all my family. As I have been following more anticipated trends, I feel a large need to share the upcoming trend in hairstyles. Here are the hairstyles I like the best and believe will be the most popular come the next few weeks. Thanks to Harpers Bazaar for the looks!
                  Making the braid:            

The first is the  Balmain exposed this look in the latest collection. The braid is tight but is not too restricted and there is room for movement on the top and sides. The relaxed braid is becoming big! I expect it to be really popular starting early spring. 

 Rock n Roll waves:

The wavy look creates a sexy and intensive look and draws immediate attention to the face. It is a fun way to look great going out and adds a gentleness to the face. 

The low pony:

The hair is collected into a low ponytail, pulling back the hair from the face and creating a neat, classy look. The hair on the side and from the bangs can be pulled and tucked behind the ear. Tip: Grab a nude color for a classy look or colorful for a fun, daytime look

Tying the knot: 

The tight knot creates an intense look and an attention grabber. The face is instantly the focus. The ballerina knot will be a popular evening look. This look is the hardest to pull off and there will most likely be a difficult transition from the runway to fashionistas. This look elongates and accentuates the facial features. Lucky are those with high cheek bones! 

Tom Ford: Class or Trash?

Check out the racy advertisements from the Tom Ford campaigns. Tom Ford has always been pushing the levels of sexuality in his campaigns since the beginning of his career. However, critics often refer to these ads as trashy and incompetent in expressing a classy attitude. But is fashion not all revolved around sex? For me, Tom Ford is the classiest man in fashion and no matter what he does, it is gold. The campaigns are only getting sexier and sexier, drawing more attention and increased reviews. Hey, Tom Ford designed and dressed James Bond. What more to say? 

Tom Ford is the James Bond of the fashion world.

Hermes Spring/ Summer 2012: Menswear

Hey everyone! 

It has been quite a long time, hasn't it? I have been überbusy with college applications and things, but now I have finished that process and am waiting for responses. The power is finally restored here in the New York/ New Jersey area and I couldn't be more happy. And so, the fall time is in full swing and the sweater season is as always, a fun and creative time of year. I have come across the Hermes 2012 Spring/ Summer and I wanted to expose it on my website. Although it is last season, I think the trends and the overall feel of the collection will continue on throughout the following seasons. Notice the various necklines of the clothing: the shirts, sweaters, jackets. They are all varied. This is an important detail! Menswear unfortunately has limits and rules set upon by society and the designers, so we must work with and appreciate any sort of variety. This is it. The various necklines are a statement. I think Hermes is saying, "We aren't as boring as we seem." Now they definitely are no Mugler or McQueen, but Hermes is showing some new creative ideas while maintaining the class and French elegance. Bravo! French fashion strikes again.
