YEAR IN FASHION

Take a look at these photos. Can you guess the year in fashion?  I'll post the answer in my next post.

HATE LONG LINES? Take a "cue" from the Brits.

Mad Men has bolstered our love for 1960's fashion. Designers are adding longer hem lines, higher waistlines and raised necklines to their dresses.  This year VougueUK has featured these slyly sexy dresses.

FOXY FRIDAY

Foxy Friday is going Parisian. Looking at Paris's "Street Style" gives me a sense of freedom. Is it me or are Parisians (and plenty of other Euros) just more courageous and expressive with their style than anyone else in the world? Is it innate and genetic or is it a product of their social environment?  Or, do I just suffer from "the grass is greener on the other side of the pond" syndrome?

I absolutely adore the bussling streets of Paris. The smell of fresh baked bread in the morning - mmmm. You can walk down the narrow streets day and night and hear the sound of scooters echoing off of the buildings. The tagged cars, street signs and buildings remind you of the density of the populous but also add to the city's charm.  And, next time you're there, pay close attention to the shoes - both men's and women's - and you'll wish for a more favorable exchange rate.
