Zip it up!

First there were pants with zips on the bottom sides and now its teeth takes a bite on blouses, bags and even dresses.

As I was checking out the sale on Zara about 6-7 weeks ago, I saw a black oversize shirt with zips on the side attached diagonally. There were denim skirts as well. It's edgy and really adds spunk on clothes especially on simple white shirt(as shown on a photo a
bove). I did not purchase it even though I really like it... I just don't wanna spend another dime on clothes. I am a shopaholic and needs to cure it asap. I was debating with myself and ended up going back there after a week but it was sold out.
And then I saw my sister wearing the same shirt and then after a week she's wearing a denim skirt with zips.
Dang!
I ended up just satisfying my cravings on p
hotos online - "It's like tofu, keeps you strong but never fully satisfied".

Common Ground

I thought this applies only to Levi's pants?
When I was younger a classmate of mine tells me that she wears Levi's for men because it fit better. Though I totally agree with her but I never bought one maybe because I am not a risk taker before or designs for women fits well on me.

But now we embraces both looks. What I think is women can easily get away with it than men.

Shinny and bright and everything so nice.. and rich...

Posted before how rich colors and textures of clothes will be this year and have seen these dresses with sequin, colorful graphic prints.



How amazing they look on Sienna Miller and Jessica Stroup. Love, love, love Sienna's tuxedo. Totally edgy.



Banks may have lost tons of money but would you let it show on your fashion sense as well?
No way! We may be in deep recession but the only thing that's in recession in fashion is the lack of iconic models(how sad) but definitely not the style.
