Vintage

2012 may sound futuristic, but this hasn’t stopped wedding fashion from looking to the past and more precisely, the Victorian era. This was an era where women wore full-skirted dresses with cinched waists, lots of lace, voile and heavily draping fabrics. It was elegant although a little stoic, but technologically advanced methods were used to create interesting shapes, weaves, folds and pleats. This season’s wedding fashions have been inspired by the entire Victorian era. Full skirts, high necklines, embroidery, lace, pearls and beading create a feminine silhouette and luxe aesthetic that is truly magical.

In terms of shoes, vintage Victoriana displays itself as beaded and bejewelled shoes in nude or understated tones. Next has a perfect pair of bridal shoes in its Nude Jewelled Slingback Peep Toe Court Shoes (pictured). Even the jewel detailing on the front is reminiscent of Victorian style brooches and rings. The heel height isn’t outrageous either and combined with the dusty pink colour makes these ideal bridal shoes.

Nudes and Pastels

Nude and pastel shades add more period features. Light green, lilac, mauve and pink combined with nudes like ivory, cream and white offer subtle contrasts and a feminine look. These shades add yet more elegance and charm and result in a ladylike almost regal aesthetic. Blake Lively as Serena Van Der Woodsen recently showcased this trend effortlessly on an episode of Gossip Girl. She may have only been the bridesmaid but this dress would be good enough for most brides.

Shoe wise this colour trend continues. Colours can however be a little deeper and bolder to add more contrast and interest to the entire outfit. Next’s Nude and Rose Gold Plaited Sandals are stunning and will perfectly complement an ivory, cream, light green or lilac wedding dress.

Details

Oganza, embroidery, lace, appliqué, tuile, folds, drapes, pins, twirls, corsages, petals, floating lace and bustles make wedding dresses unique, delicate, detailed and absolutely stunning this summer. It is these small details that set this season’s dresses apart from those of previous years. However, it’s also these details that increase the price. If you’re on a budget, look for a more simple dress but add accessories with these special details. Next’s Ivory Lace Peep Toe Courts should do the job nicely.

Here’s a guide to making sure your choice of glasses makes you feel like Michael Caine in the Ipcress File rather than Elton John in any of the music videos he’s made over the last thirty years.

Step One: Make sure you provide a correct and up-to-date prescription. There is absolutely no point in buying glasses that are ‘just right’ if you are left having to squint and lean forward in order to see things clearly. If you are in doubt, up-to-date means not more than a year old. If you let 12 months lapse between eye tests, you shouldn’t be surprised when your new glasses turn out to be inadequate. Getting this step wrong jeopardises everything that flows from it. Getting it right allows you to focus on the difficult bit – finding glasses that suit you.

Assuming you have successfully passed the first test, you will now be presented with a series of tough decisions, the results of which could have far-reaching consequences for your glasses wearing experience. Make sure you select a style that suits your appearance and fashion sense. If you enjoy going to 80s retro music gigs, then choose glasses with thick black frames and join the growing ranks of the ‘geek chic’ army. Alternatively, you can opt for perfectly round frames. However, if this John Lennon look leaves you cold, then go for the most popular style on the market: the thin framed rectangular glasses (these look particularly good in blue).

It is important to buy glasses that will last longer than a couple of months, so make sure you are buying from a reputable vendor and are getting a good brand.

Before you buy your glasses, try to picture yourself wearing them. Consider the image that you are attempting to cultivate and the look that you are promoting with different styles. Glasses can make a man variously look intelligent, nerdy, artsy, pretentious, or like they are scared of the optician and just bought whichever pair was handed to them first (this is the case for most men). If you put a little thought in beforehand, you can avoid strategic eyewear errors. Look at some photos of famous actors and musicians wearing glasses, and consider how their glasses change their look. If you are really keen to avoid being defined by glasses, then contact lenses are always an option.

If you use an online retailer, you can browse a huge range of products. For those that manage to successfully negotiate the smorgasbord of eyewear decisions, choosing glasses can be a fun and rewarding experience, rather than a necessary, annual chore.

For one, the value of white gold bands is lower compared to yellow gold and they are also more durable. As we all know, gold is a malleable metal and they can be easily get scratches and dents when exposed to the pressures of daily activities, both at home and at work. But with white gold bands, the pure gold metal is mixed with alloys and the process will result to the stronger and more durable white gold. In the truest sense of the word, white gold bands are ideal for couples who have a penchant for platinum jewelry but whose budget would not allow.

If you will start looking at jewelry shops, both online and offline, you will see that white gold bands come in many different shapes and styles. Because white gold is typically mixed with metal alloys to achieve the white color, it is highly recommended that you ask what particular alloy is added to make sure that the ring will not cause allergic reactions when you will wear them.

So what does this tell us? That fashion isn’t as original as we are led to believe? That the 1970s has the best fashion styles ever? No. What it shows us is that fashion isn’t afraid to look back as well as forward.

This is good news for all the cash-strapped fashionistas out there. You can reuse much of what has gone before. So let’s start at the bottom shall we. Shoes this summer are reminiscent of days gone by and you may have many styles hiding in your wardrobe already. This means you only need to buy a couple of new pairs this season, rather than a dozen or so.

So first up is the flat sandal. Sandals are a summer staple and will be around long into the future. Look through your old pairs for any with embellishment, buckles and in natural colours of browns, beiges and black. If you can’t find any suitable, when you look for a new pair, bear in mind the details mentioned above, but also remember to go for a timeless style. So keep it simple and opt for a good quality pair.

Heeled sandals likewise come back every summer. This summer they are rather more platformed than in recent years. However, you can be on trend with a simple pair or Mary-Jane style heels or t-bar sandals. If you don’t have these in your wardrobe, when buying new look for wooden heels and ankle straps. Keep it simple once more with brown or coral colouring and minor embellishment and detailing.

Wedges are the shoes of the summer, especially if they are espadrilles. You may have a pair lurking around somewhere from previous summers. The best styles are in blue, white and red, with straps, crochet or lace detailing or peep toes. Likewise when looking for new go for the most versatile styles so a simple toe and ankle strap combination is the best.

You can update your styles at House of Fraser, which has a truly massive range of women’s shoes.

If you need some assistance in knowing how to style your maxi, here are some of our top tips for the trend of the summer.

Get a maxi that is right for your shape. If you have a tiny waist, don’t for one minute think about drowning it in an a-line shape, or going the other way and not even bothering with a maxi. This summer, many maxi dresses are fitted around the waist, either with a belt, a rope tie, rushing or simply in design. A fitted maxi will show off your waist and give you a truly feminine physique. It can even add curves where you don’t have any with a halter-top.

Alternatively, if you are of the curvy persuasion all you need to do is choose a more flowing a-line shape, and focus on your best assets. To do this look for a fitted bust, with plunging neckline or halter-neck straps. If you aren’t too fond or your arms, there are even sleeved styles too.

Styling a maxi is easy because it is a statement in itself. Therefore you don’t need to go overboard with accessories. The summer is all about the 70s, so an easy way to tap into this trend is with a pair of espadrilles. However, any wedged or platformed sandals will do the job nicely. If you prefer flats a pair of t-bar buckled sandals will be ideal.

Add a floppy hat and some Jackie-O of Wayfarer style sunglasses and keep you hair loose and wavy or tied back in a messy plait.  Jewellery should be simply so a few bangles and a long necklace will be enough. You can work your inner Pocahontas with a necklace or earrings of gold or copper leaves.

Finally, to finish it all off add a cropped lace or denim waistcoat and floral chiffon scarf and you are good to go.

The double-ring ceremonial occasion, or use of wedding rings for both married persons, is a comparatively recent innovation. The American jewellery industry started a marketing campaign aimed at encouraging this practice in the late 19th century. Learning from marketing lessons of the 1920s, changing economic times, and the impact of World War II, led to a more thriving marketing campaign.

Firstly I recommend that you should be having different watches for work and play. The primary things to consider while buying a watch are how stylish it is and the long lasting factor. In the sports watches the buying decision is not very hard as the prices are not very high, however the reliable brands to look for in sports watches are Adidas, Nike and Suunto.

The formal watches are given more attention and buying decision is more complicated. Now the question is why do gold pieces, especially gold watches for men are so popular. The main reason why Gold watches are very popular among men are, firstly gold has always been a noble metal so gold watches for men make a natural accessory to any outfit. Secondly Gold watches are almost timeless that won’t go out of style. Another important factor is that gold prices keep on rising so gold watches are sort of investment.

Next choose a heel height. Both men’s and women’s boots come in a variety of heel heights. For general wear, men, children and dancing, you’ll want something between three-quarters of and inch and one and three-quarters of an inch. For night life, a woman’s boot heel can go as high as she feels comfortable wearing.

After you’ve looked at your foot and at your size, go find a pair of boots that suits both your taste and the structure of your foot. Now comes the fun part, trying the boot on. Roll up your pant to just below the knee and pull the boot on with the tabs at the top. Your foot should slide easily and the seam where the leg of the boot attaches to the shoe part of the boot should not bind. The leg should be loose and comfortable and the seam should be comfortably snug. You should be able to wiggle your toes slightly and when you walk, your heel should slide just a little in the heel of the boot. If you buy a leather boot, you may want to buy it slightly tighter than you would buy a corresponding synthetic boot. Leather stretches over time, synthetic does not.

Whether it is for an adult or a child, a man or a woman, a boy or a girl, proper fitting of a cowboy boot is the key to a pleasant wearing experience. A good pair of boots can last years with proper care. It is on the side of wisdom to get a pair of boots that will for and be comfortable for every day of every one of those years.
