While we’re shivering in the icy blasts of winter, the fashion industry is ready for spring and this year’s top tips for casual fashion are mint, colour-blocking and parka jackets, so maybe winter is still with us!

Mint

Pale blue-green, icy in shade and crisp in format, mint is the colour for summer. For many of us, it’s a difficult shade to wear. Top tips are to combine mint with navy for a simple smart appearance, so a mint-coloured polo-shirt combined with navy shorts or a skirt would work well. Mint shades also look better with a tan, so if you’re feeling a bit washed out, fake facial tan (or a tinted moisturiser for women) will help you balance its ice-cream coolness with some summery warmth.

Colour Blocking

This is the technique of combining colours that usually clash. It’s not for the faint-hearted and many men, in particular, find it tough to create this look with confidence. If you ha

Modern brides are changing it up when it comes to bridesmaid attire. Rather than choosing traditional, solid color dresses for their ladies, many are breaking the mold and going with patterned dresses instead.

Initial necklaces have been in the Lucid New York collection for a while now and have been extremely popular. Especially during the holiday season, when its so tough to come up with too many original ideas we can possibly handle, or when we dont really know a person that well, a tiny letter necklaces really seem like a good idea.

I love layering my A initial necklace as you can see how I wore them in my previous post from the New York Fashion Week. Theyre definitely cute – not in your face, showing some identity, some personality in a discreet way.

Well now a new idea was born. One of my clients – Uncommon Goods asked me to transform the oh so popular initial necklaces into initial letter stud earrings. Why not, I said and here they are – tiny letters that you can put right in your ear!

Helmet is most often treated as necessary evil accessory because while it provides skull protection it hides beautiful/handsome face, hair style and charm of the rider. Modern designers have come up with trendy helmet designs which take care of style statement but still most of them are very geeky and lack feminine touch. Here is HelmetDress, a company from Barcelona, which creates designer helmets with a modern ‘chic touch’ and it offers awesome stylistic designs that can go with the attire and personality of the riders. Moreover, they offer customized services too, meaning, you can now design your own helmet and they will make it for you. Awesome, isn’t it?

Motorcycles and other trendy two wheelers are becoming fashionable again thanks to congested roads and traffic jams in every modern city. They

Two nations divided by a common language – and by clothing. As part of our New Year’s Resolutions many of us decide to smarten up and Esquire had a clothing guide for men that made us laugh, cheer and scratch our heads.

Some of the items on their list we had no argument with:

7. A rugby shirt is the most masculine thing a man can wear.

For sure. And a rugby shirt is always acceptable socially.

And then there’s:

22. Always tuck: polo and dress shirts that hang below your hip. Never tuck: sweaters and turtlenecks. Everything else is negotiable.

Really? I don’t see many British men tucking in their polo shirts these days – and do you know what? I wouldn’t want to. It’s a shirt that’s made to drape, at least in this nation’s eyes, and drape is what we let it do.

Of course the Americans have Texas to contend with, and it comes up more than once on their clothing list – so a ten gallon hat and cowboy boots are okay, but a hoodie is only acceptable occasionally? Somebody should tel
