Oscar Wilde, a noted novelist and critic, once quoted “Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months”. Fashion is something that changes so often that one really needs to be awake and alert to keep pace with the dynamic nature of fashion trends. This is not the case with Style. Style is something that should be profound and should talk about the person. Style is eternal, but Fashion fades very easily. But how does fashion change so fast? Why do you have to keep modifying your wardrobe to stay fashion-conscious? One of the primary reasons for this is the emergence of Fashion weeks. Fashion weeks primarily govern the current fashion trends and the future trends as well.

A Fashion week, usually held every six months, is a kind of fashion festival wherein fashion designers from all over the world come together to showcase their designs in front of the world. There are ramp shows stylishly organized to launch new collections of several high profile fashion designers.

It’s an end of a long-term debate. We shun aside questions like whether the pearl holds a queenly status among the gems or is the gem meant only for the queens; gone are the days that made others speculate on whether something around someone’s neck is worth more than the wearer’s head. Today’s jewellery has long left the confinement of precious and semi-precious gems and metals as finely crafted as the rifling inside a barrel; the modern trend (and trade) has rendered jewellery into something chunkier that goes well with women’s regular western wear. Semi-precious gems have made a comeback (especially turquoise, jasper, jade or tiger’s eye) and almost everybody today sports that strong, Southwestern look, though serious mistakes in the current fashion are also a prevailing thing.

Wedge sandals with block heels can very well emphasize beautiful legs when a woman is wearing a short skirt including the bohemian, espadrille, interwoven styles and those with straps she can wrap around her ankles. A peep-toed wedge sandal may be a bit comfort and stylish for casual skirt that a closed-toed. Read the rest of this entry »
