Love or Loathe: Quirky Skirt

By -
Part of me thinks this skirt with gloves as a belt would be perfect for a Dali-esq outfit. Part of me wants to remove the belt and just wear the nice tweedy skirt. Part of me just says "huh"? Which direction is your brain going?

I don't like it, but it is not the belt that drives me crazy, it is the strange fit and poorly done basket weave at the bottom of the skirt. The belt is weird, but interesting.

agree with Erica. It looks like it couldn't decide between an A-line skirt and a tube/skin tight skirt.

However, if it were a well made a-line skirt, I would totally go for it since:
1. it looks like the glove belt is removable, so I can wear it for business casual stuff.
2. the glove belts dressed it down so I can wear a tee and flats with it for a fun/casual/cute outfit.

I'm not feeling it, both because of the weirdness of the skirt shape and the awkwardly-placed gloves.

I like just about everything about it. I like the unusual shape, and the weaving at the bottom. I probably wouldn't wear the belt most days, but every now and then I might. Also, the belt looks like it could be worn as a scarf.

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at ...

Short Hair For Formal Occasions

By -

Fancy occasions evoke images of hair in long, romantic waves or chic updos, but what if you have a crop? It may be trendy and easy to style, but it doesn't exactly fit our culture's idea of sophistication. But there's no need to fear that upcoming wedding or school dance. My shorn head is full of ideas. Whenever I have a formal occasion, I change the texture of my hair. In college, I spent well over an hour straightening my long curls and pulling them up into the perfect ponytail. Now that I wear my hair short and straight everyday, I create texture with a curling iron and flip my bangs out for a date. It's not a chignon, but diverging from your daily look does say that you put extra effort into doing something special. Pink set an example at the Grammy's with her diamond pin. If you don't have time to switch up your hair or just don't like it a different way, buy a stunning clip or headband . Over-the-top sparkle can be dreamy and romantic with minimal mak...
