Minimal Style

Minimal Style by lauren290591 featuring victorian boots

 I've been drawn to a more minimal style of fashion recently, maybe because I'm moving on with my life and I feel that everything should be fresh and new. Who knows? In an attempt to become more sophisticated I'm thinking about a wardrobe update in a minimal direction. I love the idea of having so many combinations of things to wear and the way that this style always seems to look cool and edgy. 

What do you think about minimal style? If you have any ideas about how to achieve this kind of look then let please let me know!

Middle Eastern Trend

 Summer seems so far away but I can't wait to feel warm again! I think that all things Middle Eastern will be perfect for the hot weather and will be able to add glamour to your day.

 Think dark, mysterious eye makeup, hamsa hands, snakes, eyes and lots of gold. Wear it casually or at night; you can add a patterned scarf and bright Middle Eastern jewellery to brighten up the cold days until summer arrives too.

 I've got my gold hamsa hand jewellery ready but what will you be wearing this summer? Let me know if you're planning ahead like me!

Halloween Vampire Diaries Inspiration

 The Vampire Diaries has just appeared again on my TV screen and if you'd rather channel a more glam Halloween vibe than go for a totally gory costume, then hopefully this Elena/ Katherine inspired look will help!

 Original Photo Inspiration:

My Inspirational Collage:

 To recreate the look of Nina who plays Elena/ Catherine:
1) Wear a blood red dress
2) To elongate your legs and create the illusion of bare feet wear nude heels
3) Accessorize with a jeweled or antique style statement necklace
4) Go for dark smokey eyes and either black or dark red nail polish

 And here's something for the girls who like The Vampire Diaries:

Studs & Spikes & Skulls

From: http://www.vogue.co.uk/fashion/trends/2011-12-autumn-winter/fetish/gallery#/image/10

 Everybody is loving the Fetish trend right now, It's all about textures and toughness.
 This trend mirrors the dark, harsher atmosphere of winter; wear head-to-toe black for a sophisticated edge or add a splash of colour if you're feeling daring.
 I'm not suggesting you should strut your stuff down the high street in a PVC catsuit, you can follow this trend by simply wearing a leather jacket, a skull print scarf or carrying a studded bag.

 Even Lady Gaga is a fan of the Fetish trend, in this photo she is wearing a black chiffon Versace dress with gold stud detailing and shiny black accessories:

   Here are some pieces that will hopefully inspire you:
