Made In Italy, Beach Fashion 2009

 



As all real fashion victims know very well, all fashion houses are already announcing new trends for next summer beach fashion and many fashion designers have already presented their new collections.

Nowadays to be fashionable on the beach a plain swimsuit is in no way enough, every year catalogues renew themselves and it’s very important to be always updated. In the last years beach accessories have also taken much importance, as flip-flops, beach towels, but also bracelets and necklaces, and the sarong will still play the lead in beach fashion.

This year beach fashion will also be based on Colombian style, so bikini will be again (but when it was not?) the more fashionable swimsuit. Bright colors, see-through sarongs, and south American patterns: really a wonderful collection.

After winter, also in summer purple and all its nuances will be the most fashionable colors, and then also micro and maxi patterns, safari or jungle prints.

In the bikinis, panties will be bigger, with no or almost no bows. Triangle shaped and push-up bras of course will play the leading role. Around the world of bikini or one-piece swimsuit, which is made with less and less cloth and that now exposes most parts of the body, you can find all beach accessories. Gossamer-like caftans made of chiffon or cotton muslins, hot pants and sarongs.

Beach bags are of great importance, made of canvas or straw, but always enriched by embroidery and appliquéd flowers, rigorously handmade crochet style and rigorously color-matching with the swimsuit.

It’s clear now that you can’t go to the beach just with a traditional swimsuit, but the beach has also become an important runaway for who always want to be cutting-edge style. Besides sarongs and caftans, tracksuits, hot pants and soft chenille pants absolutely don’t have to miss in your bag. Also toweling accessories have appeared: beach towels, ponchos, beach robe with inlays, with ruches. There are really a lot of alternatives, for all tastes and for every kind of body.

About shoes, ballerinas and flip-flops, made of toweling too, still are really ruling the roost, of every different color but always color-matching with the swimsuit or the sarong.

Given that bikini or at least two-piece are spreading everywhere, one-piece also adapt itself and leave uncovered more and more body parts. Plain color swimsuit almost gives way to prints, French lace inserts, some swimsuit are even full covered with myriads of hand sewed prismatic precious stones.

A necessary accessory in your bag is definitely sun cream, there are any kind of sun creams with any level of protection, the most important thing is that your skin have to be always hydrated and you don’t get a sunburn, so in the first days is better to use a bit higher level of protection or you will have to change all your clothes to match with your purple-red skin. It is always better not to overuse of sunbathe, skin is much more fashionable if it is healthy and hydrated even if a bit less tanned.

If you want at all costs an astonishing tan, an always actual trend are sunlamps to do in the city some months before going on vacation. The sunlamps, but used in moderation, will prepare the skin to solar exposition, besides giving you a bit of tan.

After all this preparation, don’t forget to enjoy your holiday at the most, relaxing yourself and having fun as much as you can, after all summer is also all these things!

Fashion Bag Tips For 2009

Handbags have been in use for quite a long time as the fashionable accessory but their use in the modern times seems to have gathered quite a zeal and vigor as never before. They are an important tool simply because a handbag accentuates the user’s personality. Apart from these handbags used as a fashion accessory they are also commonly used as a status symbol by many ladies.

Numerous shelves in the shopping malls can be seen sporting a wide range of these hand bags ranging in styles and designs, shapes and sizes. So a little care must be exercised before purchasing these trendy items and it must at all time be remembered that “THERE IS MORE TO THAN WHAT MEETS THE EYE”.

Some of the handy tips that would allow you to select a suitable hand bag for your body type are given here.

The shiny and cheap quality material made handbags must be avoided without a doubt as they are not long-lasting. Similarly the zips and other items must be colored in accordance with the color of hand bag.

Buying from authorized dealers usually saves a lot of trouble as they most of the time comes with a warranty.

The quality of material used in the handbags can be checked simply by placing it on a smooth surface. a good quality material neither sags nor collapses under its weight and this firmness can be used to check its quality.

Stitching of the hand bag should also be considered and checked carefully as improper stitching would destroy the shape of the bag.

It must be bore in that a relation between the body shape of user and the size of hand bag exist. For instance a thin shapely girl must use a close fitting small bag.

Above all the purpose for which the bag is bought must clear. Remember that the trendy and the fashion hand bags must NEVER be used as shopping bags.

These were some of the tips which have to be generally considered before purchasing a hand bag. If a hand bag is purchased as a fashion accessory than the ongoing fashion trends need to be checked too.

Since the celebrities and the divas are the fashion icons and the trend setter for the majority, the latest trends popular in hand bags for the year 2009 will be noted by discussing the stars and celebrities.

A bag which is making news in the fashion circle this season and is attaining such level of fame that it is not like to disappear from the fashion scene for a long time is Yves Saint Laurent’s Muse. It is supported by the young stars like Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton and Jessica Alba.

The much pursued Cowboy look wouldn’t be seen now but bags having fringes are still somewhat en-vogue. The top handle bags or the classic lady like bags are still in fashion.

For women looking for new trends in handbags, 2009 offers plenty of styles to choose from.

Maternity Fall Fashion 2009

With everything constantly changing each season, (the leaves, your belly, the trends) it may be a bit hard to keep up. When a new style comes in for the season the Trend Setter doesn’t always accommodate for all the pregnant women. Most of the time our bellies won’t fit in all the cute new styles. So we have gathered up some tips for this fall so you can still look fashionably up to date.

 A TAILORED JACKET There is a return to tailoring and sophistication this season. While we won’t do to well in a tailored waist dress, who said we can’t do a tailored jacket. Be sure to purchase a tailored maternity jacket since it will be the base point of every woman’s wardrobe this season. The great thing about a tailored maternity jacket is that it can give your wardrobe personality. It’s the thing you can build around. Tip: Mix it up with a fitted comfy dress or your favorite designer maternity jeans and some boots.

MASSIVE NECKLACES Well this is something we haven’t seen for quite some time. Necklaces with colored stones and crystals that are big, inventive and architectural. While most will be able to pull off these massive necklaces we need to be on the more careful side. We don’t want to wear anything that gives off too much attention because it will take away our belly. Tip: Look for more simple necklaces with medium to small sized stones and crystals.

TOP-HANDLED BAG If you change anything up this season be sure to replace your slouchy-pouchy hobo purse with a ladylike top-handled bag in a yummy fall tone of aubergine, putty, camel, dark green, or chocolate. It doesn‘t matter how much you spend on the bag just know that you have an on-trend must-have. Tip: If you’re like me and can’t seem to break your black bag habit, then at least try to choose a black with a little shine, a crackled finish, or some hardware that really lifts the black up.

BANGIN’ BOOTIES Whether it’s the scrunchy boot, a mid-calf, or an over-the-knee boot, we think the boot is the most important shoe of the season. We love them with heels, stilettos, or flats…we love them all. It’s really about a boot wardrobe this season. And it looks fantastic with every single item in your closet. Tip: Pair your boots with a flowy maternity dress.

A SENSATIONAL SHIRT No longer just for secretaries or 80′s working girl, the bow-neck shirt is a pretty way to freshen up for fall – provided you proceed with a healthy dose of fashion-forward. If you’re wearing a bow shirt, it shouldn’t be too conservative. You don‘t want to look like you‘re running for office. Look for a feminine and pretty version with small ruffles. Tip: Pair with an edgy boot or accessory.

THOU SHALT NOT’s

BABYDOLLS If it’s too voluminous, it needs to go. Put baby dolls in the back of the closet! Those need to go away for a while because we really are celebrating the natural shape of the body, curves and all, with a longer, leaner more tailored silhouette. 

BIG PANTS While it’s a great season for trousers, not all pants need apply. Be sure that your pant doesn’t have too big of a flair.

FAB FLORALS, NOT PAINTERLY PRINTS The painterly splashes we saw were very much the print of the season, but obviously that’s a summer look, so put that back in the back as well. Switch them out for a lighter, more natural floral with a dark background so it looks more relevant to the colder weather.
