Luxury is defined as something extravagant that does not need to be somewhat basic or of fundamental use. The luxury has the crucial factor of extravagance in it. Many people are obsessed to meet their desires. It is not said that the desires need no to be attained but there are some limits for everything. Some people develop the mania and obsession to achieve whatever they want. The main impression of luxury is opulence. The richness and wealth are the only things which can deal luxury dreams.

Since there are many rich and affluent people who have wealth to enjoy every kind of luxury in this world. Many rich people take pleasure in luxury homes, vacations, hotels, cars, sports, antiques, clothing, jewelry and accessories. Many women are enormously pleased buying luxurious jewelry and accessories. These luxurious accessories include different types of jewelry items, shoes, watches, bags and purses. Here some luxurious brands of bags and purses are mentioned.

The Hermes Birkin bag is one of the most luxurious bags in the world. It is amazingly spectacular. It is embedded with two thousands diamonds with platinum body. The strap of the bag is brilliant and dazzling. It can be taken off the bag and can be used as necklace or a bracelet.

There are different colors which are worn every autumn, every winter, every spring and every summer. There are not too many colors which are out of fashion, fashion all being about colors, but there are some colors which are more frequently encountered than others and red is one of them.

Red is a color which is definitely on an ascending direction, one that is defining for the autumn-winter collection this year. Red is a color which only the daring women can wear and those who want to catch everyone’s eye. This is the best choice for those women who like being in the center of attention. Red is a passionate color, a very sensual one, one that has been chosen by designers all over the world because of the passion and the voluptuous features it breathes and it transmits. This is exactly why red could not be missing from the catwalks this year. This is more than just a feminine shade and it can be combined with a lot of other shades and tones, the most important part being that you have to identify yourself with this color and with its features.

Red is also a color which has made many women famous over time. However, you don’t have to wear a certain color to become a fashion icon, this being a more complex situation and a much more complex process. You must have good taste and even good advisors around you. There have been a lot of women who have become models through their way of dressing up and of acting, imposing a real fashion trend. Here are some examples of very famous women, who have revolutionized the world of fashion.

First of all, there is Dita von Teese, one of the women who enjoyed the more dramatic colors and who was very fond of the retro style, combined with the glamour one. Then, there is Princess Diana, who was an example a lot of other women followed and who was very famous for its social life and for its taste in fashion. We can even encounter her personal fashion style today. Then, there is Sarah Jessica Parker, who is a very non-conformist person and who really has something to show in terms of personality. Last but not least, there would be Nicole Kidman, who is best characterized through the words simplicity and refinement. These are the words which define the way she dresses and the way she teaches the world to dress when attending any sort of event and when approaching any kind of situation.

We all have our personal fashion styles although not all of us are famous for it. Fashion can be considered a quite relative domain as not all people have to obey the rules. This means that if you don’t like the retro fashion style, you don;t have to wear retro clothes just to please the others, but of course you can make an exception from time to time. Of course, that is if you really care.

Are you looking for a stunning outfit that is guaranteed to get you noticed this summer whether it be a casual get up compiling of a tank top and shorts or a completely out there style plastered in neon?

This summer’s fashion is a medley of bright colors and patterns with an array of shapes and styles. Bright dazzling neon and stunning, gorgeous skin-showing lace to sleek and sexy office wear are seen everywhere this season whether it is on the high street, at a special occasion or sat in the office.

Most women tend to stray away from certain styles or colors but why not try and break from the norm. Even though a change can be daunting it can also be classed as a positive step and can make you feel more confident. So why not dive in with some lace halter necks or some neon tights and break away from the background? With all these different trends running to the front of fashion this season it is impossible to write about them all, so I am going to stick with the top five styles for summer fashion this year.

1. Go Bright – Neon Styles

Neon has always been recognized as a raver’s choice of fashion, however with them bouncing into the limelight this season it has become a fashion choice for everyone. Neon fashion covers everything from the tradition accessory glow-stick bracelet all the way to luminous yellow and pink skinny fit jeans, most of which are in an abundance of designs. So whatever your choice in style it is certain that neon will make you stand out in the crowds. If you do not feel brave enough to go head to toe neon then why not just accessorize your outfit with a neon bracelet or necklace? Both of which are a favored accessory this season. Why not contrast a bright neon pink leopard print vest with a pair of plain black skinny jeans? Not only are they both comfortable items of clothing but they also complement each other greatly.

2. Stay feminine – Lace Styles

From the 17th century lace has been a feminine fabric used to decorate all sorts from royal ruffs to table tops. Over the centuries it has never lost its touch and gone out of fashion. It has always been kept in the shows and on the catwalks from the Moulin Rouge in Paris in 1926 all the way to Prada and Louis Vuitton in 2012. A well-recognized and well-respected fabric, lace is and always has been the style to own and this season even more so than ever with lace back dresses giving that cheeky showing of skin and halter necks soaring into the forefront of fashion it is not surprising how lace has been taking the summer of 2013 by storm. If you don’t feel comfortable enough to wear a full lace summer dress then why not wear a little black number with a small but cute lace collar?

3. Be Sexy – Open back Styles

Yes! Sexiness is the look every woman wants and why not grab everyone’s attention with a stunning open back dress? With a mass array of lengths, colors, patterns and fabrics to choose from, finding that perfect open back dress for you is a walk in the park. For that sophisticated occasion, whether it be a wedding or a formal party, why not accessorize a small capped sleeve, black, cross over, open back dress with a gorgeous silver and gemstone back drop necklace? Not only with this get you noticed at all the parties but it also adds definition to a feminine figure beautifully and brings attention to the waist and shoulder blades. Different shapes of open back dresses can provide different images. A peep hole open back or side back give that cheeky feel to a glamorous dress whereas halter neck, full open backs can give a more elegant look to the whole outfit. Be careful with shapes and styles though, a wrong fitting open back dress can bag and throw out the entire look!

4. Go Casual – Shorts & Tank

For women who prefer the more casual attire shorts and tank tops are the new summer crazes. With combat style shorts in patterns from plain denim to camouflage finding a suitable tank top is a breeze. Even a plain black tank top can draw the eye to any style of shorts, however this seasons tank top favorites are all about the prints. All sorts of designs from stripes and blocks to band logos and obscure objects such as quenchie cups are found on nearly every tank top going. Bringing that casual style and mixing it up with the adolescent fun, any woman can pull of this image and still look amazing.

5. Fashion Office Look

The working woman always needs to look great in the office, but it is not impossible to take this style into the street without that feeling of ‘still in work clothes mode’. A gorgeous black and white pinstripe skirt suit with a satin ruche shirt and complimented by a pair of stunning peep toe wedges can be the head turner you want, giving you a feel of glamour and style and giving the viewer the impression of importance and power. Do not be put off by the idea that business style clothing should stay in the office, get it out there, get it seen and get it to amaze.

To conclude, whether you want a brilliant neon outfit and get noticed on the high street or if you just want a casual short and tank get up but still look great, finding these outfits to suit your shape, style and bank balance is as easy as one two three. Even the sexy and stunning office fashion can be taken onto the streets without fear. Be warned with finding the right shapes and sizes however, a badly fitting garment can never give the look that either you want or that it is designed to give.

Being fashionable nowadays also means taking care of your clothes, of your tastes, of your attitude. Fashion is an outfit, it is a style. It is a form of art, just like painting, music, dancing, classicism or modernism and it is what we have inherited from our ancestors. There is an English saying according to which you should always eat enough for you to be satisfied, but dress up so that the others around you also like you. Fashion also represents a balance between your personal tastes and the tastes which are unanimously accepted, it means adopting a personal touch, which matches your times, it is the art of choosing the right elements for the right occasions.

Matching your clothes properly is still a matter of taste, but it is a matter of good taste. This is no longer something subjective. It is already something that is associated with politeness. We dress up for ourselves and for the others. The fashion houses we have today offer everyone the opportunity to express themselves. There is a continuous fight over adapting, over being sincere when it comes to fashion. However, it appears that the fashion styles which will follow will be fashion styles which have nothing rigid in them, which are evolved, everyone being their own fashion designer and learning to separate what fits them from what doesn’t fit them. However, there is one universally valid rule and that is that all bright colors represent a lack of taste.

The active man’s fashion is the fashion of the coordinated elements: you need harmony when it comes to shapes, to styles, to colors, you need simplicity, naturalism, intelligence and control. All fashion styles have their logic and their balance, even their elegance. Fashion is a necessity, it means style and it means a lot more.

Take a blend of many decades of style, add a dash of old Hollywood glamour, and you have the magic of the trends for spring 2008. This season the designers added modern twists to our favorite classic and timeless pieces. Fashion icons like Audrey Hepburn, Jackie Kennedy, and Princess Diana wore many of these sophisticated and classic trends: romantic, flirty, and colorful in design and mood. Here are my top twelve trends for spring. You may not love all of them, but I encourage you to select a few to add to your existing wardrobe to look more modern and fashionable.

1). Crayola Colors This season the designers have added a lot of vibrant hues in saturated colors like bright yellow, grass green, royal blue, red, safety orange and fuchsia. These bright colors may be hard for everyone to wear. If you want to experiment with bold colors, start with a bright blouse or jacket and pair it with a pair of white pants or a skirt, which will tone it down a bit. When you wear bright colors like these, keep your accessories simple, so that the color becomes the focal point.

2). Pattern Punch, Creative Strokes & Floral Dresses, jackets, tops and skirts will come in all sizes of patterns this season. The popular prints will have graphic, geometric and abstract motifs. You will see some beautiful new prints that look like creative brush stroke patterns off an artist’s canvas in a light whimsical scrawl or a blurred watercolor abstract. Romantic floral will dominate the season in medium to large prints. When selecting a print to wear in the professional business arena, remember to keep it in the small to medium range, and in a subtle color.

3). The Waist-Defined Dress Springtime is all about dresses this year. The two most popular styles, which I adore, are the shirt dress and the sheath dress; both of which accentuate the waist area. I love these styles because they work well in a business casual work environment, and can go from day to night with a change to dressier accessories. The shirt dress is a tailored, stylish, and classic silhouette, with a collar that can be worn turned up a bit, and a button-down front, which when unbuttoned, can create a great V-neckline. A shirt dress with a sash or belt can compliment a waistline, or help to create one that is not prominent enough. This style of dress is flattering to many different body types. Many sheath dress styles can be worn without a belt but are shapely to your body and define a bit of waist. This dress looks professional worn with a modern or tailored jacket during the day, and worn with a great purse and clutch handbag for an after-hours event. For work this style of dress worn with a jacket conveys professionalism, expertise and femininity for women in business.

4). The Timeless Trench The classic trench returns in time for the springtime weather and it is a great wardrobe essential that every woman needs in her closet. This season you will see a more modern version of the classic trench coat. The latest twists are brighter colors, lighter fabrics and shorter jacket styles, which look great with dress trousers. The timeless trench takes on a springtime, fresh look with softer fabrics and fun colors. This is also a great item to pair with jeans and sandals during those cool spring evenings to look stylish and chic.

5). The Feminine Blouse The mood of the season is romantic and flirty when it comes to blouses. Beautiful soft blouses in pastels and prints with lots of feminine details like ruffles, pin tucks and tiny pleats. With the fine detailing on these blouses, keep jewelry to a minimum. This is a great must-have for every workingwoman, as this sophisticated and romantic item can modernize a classic suit and add a womanly flair to a basic tailored suit.

6). Out of Africa Safari wear is a great timeless trend again this season. From the 1970’s era, you will see African safari jackets, khaki shirt dresses, and belted safari pant suits. In with this trend you’ll find great animal prints, like leopard and giraffe, in dresses and tops. To give this style a great head to toe look try pairing a safari outfit with some natural wood accessories and trendy wide strapped sandals with wooden soles and heels.

7). Full, Flirty Skirts Skirt silhouettes will be full and stylish this season like the dirndl, the A-line, pleated styles and soft flirty skirts with a fuller silhouette. These styles will be in solid bold colors, color blocked prints, floral and artistic prints. A soft A-line skirt that gently drapes over your hip is a flattering style for many women, as it camouflages large hip areas. Any of these styles worn with a modern jacket, a twin set or a soft feminine blouse makes for a winning combination to keep in mind for a business casual workday.

8). High-Waisted Trousers This is a hard trend for many women to accept since we have, for years, had to become accustomed to the low-rise pant. This trend started last fall and we are definitely starting to see more dramatic waistbands rise to new levels. The styles that illustrate this trend are the sailor pant or wide-legged pant. While this trend may not work for everyone, if you have a defined waistline, this can really show off your small waist area. You will look curvy, but womanly. When you wear a higher-waist pant be sure to balance it with a form fitting top on your upper torso, making your legs appear slimmer and longer. If your body type doesn’t look great in this trend – skip it, as there are a lot of pants options this season.

9). Global Chic This season the designers traveled the world and went outside the box to get inspired for new patterns, shapes and accessories to give that “melting pot” allure to dressing. You will see a large ethnic influence like apparel with embroidery or intricate Bali-influenced prints. In jewelry you will see tribal beads, stones, chunky wooden carved necklaces and natural wood pieces. When you wear a piece of this global look, incorporate it with some other pieces in your wardrobe. Perhaps add a dramatic necklace or bracelet from a faraway place to finish a look on a safari ensemble, or casual jean outfit.

10). Shoes – Architectural Heels and Bold Colors Shoes this season will be very structured with lots of architectural details on the heels and artfully designed platforms. The structured high wooden heels and soles on sandals will look natural and earthy when worn with dresses and skirts. At the other end of the spectrum is color. You will see pops of color in a modern mix of color blocking on shoes like bright pinks and yellows mixed with black. If you decide to wear some colorful shoes in vivid colors, let them be the focus and keep the ensemble simple and elegant.

11). Shades of Gold: Metallic Jewelry Necklaces, bracelets and earrings this season will be in new shades of metallic gold. Rose gold is the new modern gold to wear. If you are warm in coloring, adding rose gold accessories will make your current wardrobe more contemporary. This shade of gold looks beautiful with many of the beautiful neutral colors coming out this spring and summer.

12). Stacked Bangles and Cuffs In the bracelet category you will see cuffs in various metallic, and bold color in Lucite. Stack up your arm with some fun bangles in different shapes and sizes. This is a fun item to wear to add some style to a dress or if you are wearing a short sleeve or sleeveless blouse. Do be careful if you are in the workplace that you don’t overdo it. Perhaps go for one cuff bracelet so you aren’t jingling all over the office.

I hope that you find at least two to three trends that you are willing to try to incorporate into your existing wardrobe. If you add a few of these into your classic-trend ensembles, you will look stylish and chic for every occasion.

Nowadays, it is quite hard to keep up with the latest in fashion. Almost every week, new trends are coming up. In Hollywood, celebrities caught everyone’s attention with their styles. Most of the glamorous movie stars compete not only with their acting prowess but with their choice of fashion styles as well. Women’s fashion constantly changes. Those who are particular in how they look will absolutely invest much just to keep themselves abreast with what’s in and what’s hot. Well, this is really not bad at all if you have all the resources you need to avail the latest items in fashion.

However, women can still make her own fashion statement for a little amount of effort and resources. In making fashion a little bit more practical but updated, women’s accessories are a good option to make. There are many available women accessories that will complement your fashion styles. Take for example the Cashmere pashmina which is very much ideal especially now that it is winter time. As early as November, we can already feel the cool breeze of December. For me, cashmere pashmina is the right choice. There are lots of colors and designs to choose from for cashmere pashmina. If you just know how to use it properly, it is already a very good accessory that is very much useful for all occasions. Cashmere pashmina is a versatile accessory that allows you to create your own style with it.

Women don’t really have to be so vain when it comes to fashion. No matters how expensive your clothes and accessories might be but you look terribly awful upon wearing it, you better not wear it at all. Women can actually create her own signature style, something that would define her fashion statement. Self-confidence is one factor that will not caused her to look good of the fashion of her choice. You don’t have to be as glamorous as Paris Hilton or as trendy as any teenage sensation. Real fashion for me is not all about the style; it is all about the attitude. If you can carry it, then you are definitely in!

Each of us have our own unique  sense of style. Our clothes can sometimes reflect our personality. This is the reason why most of us love to play around with different pieces. Some fashion styles are categorized in different types. It may be a mix of one or more styles but what makes it special is because these styles are worn uniquely by you.

Fashion has great influence to all females over the years because females are more into fashion styles than men. To females, fashion is a statement and determines your own personality by portraying your different styles. Fashion should be unique in every individual, however because of media influences fashion style has created a common denominator which most people imitate to become like the “supermodels”. Fashion style its has positive and negative effects to females. We will determine first the negative effects of fashion style and we will re-enforce it with positive effects.

Negative effects of fashion style

Identity. Your identity is affected with fashion style because you tend to follow what is stereotypical in the fashion world. Fashion industry created a stereotyped supermodels who are labelled to beautiful with their thin physique. Most females worked so hard just to achieve that supermodel figure, because of their misconception about being beautiful. To them a little meat is fat and being fat is not beautiful.

Financial Deficit. Stereotypical is what’s going on with fashion style. You often buy branded clothes that are very expensive and you tend to spend more beyond what you earn just to be up to date with fashion style and you end up broke or even in debt.

Peer pressure among teen females. Fashion style has influence on many young teenage girls, if you don’t wear the latest clothing from famous brands like Abercrombie and Fitch, Chanel or Dolce & Gabbana, it simply means you are not “IN” and you cannot be part of the popular girls group in your school. This adds pressure to young girls to become part of a group that more often will result to low self esteem and even depression.

Positive effects of fashion style (re-enforcement of negative effects)

Identity. In contrary to the negative effects, style will definitely help you become creative and unique with different style that will fit your personality and lifestyle. It is a matter of understanding how fashion can influence you in a positive way. It also a matter of personal choice whether or not you will follow what the media has branded beautiful. Fashion is about your own personal style, it not about looking the same like the supermodels. You can be beautiful with curves as long as you feel good inside. Beauty comes from within.

Avenue for savings. With a gigantic variety of different styles, your wardrobe will not go out of style. You can mix and match, and add a little accessories, your old will become something new and trendy. You don’t need to spend extra money to buy for super expensive branded clothing just to be “in” with fashion. Creativity is all you need with a little help tips from the experts and you will create a fashion statement in your own little way.

Be Confident. Becoming a popular is not an issue as long as you are confident with your looks. Fashion is not all about expensive designer clothes. There are more brands that offers good quality and amazing designs, than expensive designer clothes. If you are confident with your style, you will get the attention you deserve and peer pressure will no longer be an issue.

According to top designers, fashion style is not what you see on TV or magazines but it is how creative you are by turning a simple top to an astounding blouse that will set a trend in fashion world. Set your worries aside and don’t be afraid to be wonderful yourself.

Grecian style dressing has been around for centuries (quite literally), and with Alexander McQueen featuring heavily influenced Grecian style clothing in his Spring/Summer 2012 ready to wear collection, it looks like the trend is here to stay!

The flowing, fluid lines of the dresses combined with the edgier, more barbarous elements of the trend such as the gladiator sandals make this look modern, wearable and captivating. Through out the years Grecian style dresses have sauntered their way onto the red carpets on the shoulders of many A-listers including Mischa Barton, Kate Winslet and most recently the Duchess of Cambridge.

So how to wear these Grecian dresses I hear you ask. Do not fear! The draping often associated with these dresses makes them extremely flattering on all shapes and sizes, whether you’re looking for something loose and flowing, structured and figure hugging, short or long there will be something to suit everyone. If you decide to go for something loose and billowing you always have the option of adding a fierce metallic belt to add style and power.

The colors that accompany this trend are often neutral shades including cream, white, pale pink and beige, however modern influences have seen Grecian dresses take form in hues of blue, purple and orange. So if the thought of wearing pale pink puts you off, opt for a richer shade! In relation to your feet, Grecian style dresses look great with heels or flats, if you’re off on holiday then opt for some edgy gladiator sandals, if you’re off on a night out then some chunky wedges or heels would look amazing!

If you decide you don’t want to go ‘all out’ then there are loads of other ways to incorporate this trend into your beauty and fashion routine including; jewellery, hair pieces and hair styles and shoes. Braiding your hair is seriously on trend right now and this pays homage to the Grecian ideal. Another option would be to wear a jeweled head band, this adds a touch of glam to any outfit and would be perfect for a festival to keep the hair out of your face!

When looking for Grecian inspired jewellery, opt for gold pieces with a worn look or jewellery that includes stones. Gold and bronze jewellery that include leaf decoration also tie in nicely with this look. If you want a more edgy feel to your outfit add a large chunky cuff or bangle!
