CHIC! coated jeans!

CHIC! coated jeans!


Coated jeans first appeared on store shelves and on the street in the fall of 2012.
 Although the style found popularity, 
it was in the shadows of printed jeans and colored skinnies. 
For fall 2013, the coated jean is the new colored skinny; 
and it has risen to the top of the denim pack.

Coated jeans are everywhere for fall 2013, 
and they have turned into the fresh alternative to the tired colored denim or denim skinny trend. Coated jeans still feature seasonal colors, 
but what sets them apart from regular colored denim is the wax coating.




This season jeans, specifically pants, not jackets, shirts, vest or skirts, are coated. 
The coating seems as though it would be sticky when first touched,
 but in reality the coating is waxy without being slick.
 This gives denim pants a sheen which dresses up the overall of the jeans
 without elevating them past casual

The fabulous thing about coated jeans is that they can be paired with biker boots 
and a sweater on a casual weekend day, paired with loafer pumps 
and a blazer for “Casual Friday” at the office or spiced up with heels and a clutch for evening.










If there is one pair of jeans you need to buy for fall 2013, it is a coated pair of jeans. 
Of course the ultimate pair to own would be in black,
 but if you prefer a little bit more color, burgundy, forest green or brown are fabulous shades to take you through the autumn season.

Biker jackets with chic

Biker jackets with chic


Biker jackets are considered casual classics. 
Although timeless, the biker trend has taken on new life for the winter 2013 season.
 Biker jackets graced the runways for fall/winter
 2013/2014 in New York, Paris, Milan and London. 
Store buyers and consumers loved the casual, edgy biker look and store shelves have become stocked with the look for the autumn season;
 and consumers are buying the biker look like mad!



With the rocker chic trend and grunge trend popular in 2013, 
it is only natural that the biker look, often referred to as the “moto” look,
 would gain popularity with Fashionistas who do not normally wear such edgy attire. 
Designers have responded to the trend 
with biker jackets in multiple colors which stray from traditional black. 
We are seeing shades of brown, tan and even brighter hues such as blue and pink on biker inspired items






In addition to traditional biker jackets, designers have created vests, 
sweater and tops with biker jacket details.  
This is bringing the biker look into chicer, dressier waters. 
Love that!







leather biker jackets is not only! Biker jackets with trendy denim are so good.

The Midi Skirt!

The Midi Skirt !



Skirts can be a tricky item to wear: Don't have the legs to wear a mini? 
Can't stand the thought of a maxi? 
Luckily this season, a new silhouette is making its mark. 
The midi skirt may seem more 1950's than 2013, 
but it's taking the runway and the street by storm. 
Spotted at the Prada, Céline, and Rochas F/W 2013 shows, the midi skirt is best worn with a pair of heels and (our favorite), a cropped angora sweater. 
But whichever way you prefer to style your skirt, make sure it's a midi this season.



midi skirt with tartan check!






However, midi skirt looks your legs shorter by any possibility!
So, i get you 5 tip about how to wear midi skirt!

1. Pair with Form-Fitting, Skin-Baring Top

Since the midi skirt tends to be rather conservative and covers up so much leg, it’s best to pair with a form-fitting crop top! You can even pair a high-waisted midi with the crop top for the perfect silhouette and shape.


2. Volume on Bottom needs a Close Fit on Top!

Not ok with just a crop-top? Find the perfect cropped jacket to pair with your full skirt. This keeps it streamlined above the waist.

3. Edgy Accessories
Edge up the conservative feel of a midi skirt with some metallic and studs! It will bring a modern twist to your midi look!

4. HEELS!
The midi skirt requires very specific footwear. You absolutely must wear heels! There is no exception except if you’re one of those leggy models we spoke of earlier. Second, your heels should expose the top of the foot to lengthen the appearance of your leg; a very thin stripy sandal or classic pump is the best.


5. Not into crop tops? Form Fitting Top with a cinch-waist belt.
If you don’t feel comfortable showing a little bit of your tummy, opt for a for fitting blouse and finish it up with a waist-cinching belt. This gives the same silhouette without the crop top.
