Vintage Movies Make me SMILE!

    The glamor! The Fashion! The lingo! The penciled eyebrows! There is something about a black and white flick that is inspiring to my sense of fashion. I watch and imagine how long it must have taken those women to get ready, and these were Hollywood looks that every day women emulated. I can barely wash my hair every other day! Its exhausting with work and everything else that one needs to keep up with in our 21st century life. Well, here is a ode to the women and men who knew how to shine, even without technicolor!

Gloves Galore!

    Hello my Shenani-fashionistas. It is still winter, but not for long; SO time to embrace the beloved winter fashion items while we still can. And take your look to a chic new level with what? Well gloves of coarse! Our hands are very expressive, and I like to use different kinds of gloves in order to reflect my mood and put that finishing touch on my ensembles. For intance, when I am in a goofy and playful mood, I love mittens.....its just something about them that makes me feel like I am a clumsy 6 year old trying to pad together snowballs in by gloves without fingers that are about 4 sizes too big for me because my dad didn't want to buy me new mittens every season, and falling over in the snow because my boots get stuck and am so small. You can see how just a little pair of mittens paints a picture for me and sets my mood all at once! Well, a pair of sexy leather gloves can add that perfect finishing touch to your look and make you look and feel sexy. Make sure your ensemble pairs appropriately so you don't end up going out to dinner looking like you might also have a whip somewhere on your person, unless you are into that kind of thing : ) Meow! The trick here is to keep it simple and keep it chic, either way...make sure your lines are clean and this will make room for a vintage or modern flair! But whatever you do, make sure you like it! Make sure it feels good, and as much as you can...make sure it is animal friendly:) YAY!

    Another perfect example of how you don't have to keep things all black all the time. Mix it up with some colors that you can work as neutrals.

A Tribute to John Galliano

    Born November 28th, 1960. His real name is Juan Carlos Antonio Galliano Guillen, otherwise known to the fashion world as simply John Galliano. He is currently the head designer of Christian Dior.
    Quoted as saying, "My role is to seduce." And he is true to his word, as Mr. Galliano is one of the few designers that actually incorporates himself into his own fashion show. As most designers will shyly waive and walk across with a quick bow, John struts himself down the runway in seemingly impossible tight pants, seducing us all the entire way down with his devilish little grin. His entrance is grand, his runway debut is grand and his exit is grand and we will just say that his grand fashion creations....well, they never seem to disappoint! Mr. Galliano is a busy man with 6 couture and ready to wear collections to create a year, as he has his own label and creates for Dior. Mr. Galliano also has a rigorous exercise regime; he wakes at 6 am and completes a grueling 40 minutes of aerobics, before doing about 150 push-ups and then finishing up with a run. He seems to have enough energy and creative spunk for about 4 lifetimes, and lets just say that.....we will never complain! We salute you John!
