Haute or Not: Rita Ora

May 17, 2012 -

Rita Ora attended the 2012 Radio Academy Awards rocking an optical illusion inspired jump suit. I feel as if you stare at her jump suit long enough a picture may appear. LOL! Honestly im not feeling this look, so I will have to go with not on this one. I feel like she is missing something from this outfit.

Fashionistas do you think Rita Ora’s look was HAUTE or NOT?

MVE’s Style File: Surfs Up

May 17, 2012 -

Vogue Australia April 2012Surfs up!  Summer is on the horizon so grab your board, long or short, because we’re riding the surf wave trend.  80′s surfers inspired the look and the vibe is sporty, fun, and relaxed.
Surf culture is a way of life and fortunately this season you don’t have to learn the techniques to look the part.  The sea is a swell of neoprene fabrics, athletic silhouettes, acid neon colors and ink black, zipper accessories, and graphic printsSports wear is the main influence and designers portrayed the surfer with collections of body hugging garments and sharks tooth accessories.
Whether you’re a beach bunny or a surfer, don’t miss your chance to catch the raddest wave of the season!
Vogue Australia April and May issues feature surf style in its best form.  The picture was taken from the April 2012 issue.

Nicole Richie has been selected to be the next designer for Macy’s Capsule Collection. Nicole stated that “music is the driving force behind my inspiration.” The line will launch online and in limited stores.
