Quick Update! 8-)

I just wanted everyone to know that Taylor Swift won the contest! Mostly everyone voted for her because of her fresh and unique outfits. But for everyone who didn't, that's still okay, because I broke those 3 celebrities down because I think they ALL have a great sense of fashion.
Unfortunately, it looks like yet again, I will be going away until Friday 24th. And, then that following Wednesday I will be away at my cottage, so more likely than not, I won't be able to post anymore posts until the first week of August! :(
Sorry for any inconvenience!
Also, I am thinking of totally re-doing my blog. As in, maybe add beauty into one of my main topics as well. I am thinking more makeup and fashion, because in the past few months I have spent my time on the computer looking at videos and learning more about makeup/beauty. And it has become one of my favourites, besides fashion.
So, basically summarizing what I just said, I am HOPEFULLY, going to be making my blog just not about fashion, but also about beauty.
Make sure you comment and tell me what you think of that idea, because I am debating whether or not to do that. But I can tell you that I am beginning to know a lot more tricks, tips, and styles of beauty.
Thanks!

My Favourite Summer Outfit

Summer outfit's are easy to find. There are so many options that you can choose from, like dresses, shorts, shirts, and a wide selection of shoes.

My favourite Summer outfits are sundresses. Most sundresses come in many colors as simple as white, to as severe as florescent green.

I don't like shopping at over-priced stores, so I usually shop at stores like American Eagle, Areopostale, Kohl's, Garage or Stitches for casual dresses.

Accessories? Well the best accessories for a sundress to me is a long necklace, aviators, and colorful earrings and bulky bracelets. These accessories turn a plain sundress into a bright, fun, and stylish outfit.

Shoes? I think, as you may know from one of my older posts, that the best shoes for a sundress are gladiators. Gladiators can come in many different styles, and shapes. If you really want to make your outfit pop, try really bulky gladiators with a lot of straps.

Fashion Flashback!

In the early 1900's, Woman would wear simple white dresses, gowns, or shirtwaist blouses. The early 1900 style was to show off the womans tightly corseted torso, such as tight fitting clothing. Women would also wear very high and bulky hats to match their particular outfit.

Since the clothing was so tight, women had to get there clothing specially made for their body types.

Now, in 2009/2010, Woman wear anything and everything from dresses, shorts, jeans/pants , shirts, blouses, long sleeve shirts, sundresses, and capris. Woman today wear any color, from blacks and whites, to bright
oranges, pinks, and greens.

Fashion flashbacks are sometimes good, because the fashion back in the 1900's were very special and well-prepared. You see celebrities today wearing similar outfits as the Women would in the 1900's, but an updated, and more colorful version.

So, if you see in your closet an old white dress that your Mom picked out for you that you have never worn, and have been tempted to purposely stain it because you hate it so much, try adding some colorful accessories to it, and get permission to use the sewing machine, and maybe cut off a few peices to make your plain, white dress and fabulous and stylish dress!

Hottest Summer '09 Shoe

If there is one type of shoe you can buy, what would it be?

I found it hard to answer that question myself after my friend had asked me that question.
After putting forth a lot of thought into the answer, I decided that I would buy the Gladiator Sandal. The good thing with these shoes is you can wear them with almost anything. You can wear them with a cute sundress, or even as simple as a pair of shorts.

Where can you purchase Gladiators? I bought my pair of gladiators at "Spring", but lots of other stores sell them from 20-60 dollars like Aldo, Old Navy, Urban Outfitters, American Eagle, and even as simple as Pay less Shoes.

Next time you are looking for a cute, comfortable summer shoe, make sure you check out the gladiators, as they bring style to simple, easy outfits! And best of all, they aren't very expensive, depending on where you buy them.

Enjoy! (:
