I've recently wrote about what denim styles are in trend this season. As all major fashion weeks ended it's time to review spring 2008 trends for denim jeans. The news is that all cuts are in designers' favors. Skinny jeans are still a strong style but...

I love this crisp and dynamic trio of red, white and black. It's a classic one but always looks young and fresh. Many designers used it for their spring 2008 collections and I can see why. Neutrals combined with pops of bright red creates...

Ok, so there isn't a Halloween tradition in my country, though we do have a similar spooky celebration, but, still, the whole Halloween marketing empire got here too. So there are carved pumpkins and dancing Halloween parties everywhere....

Blickfang Vienna is the biggest design fair in Austria for fashion, furniture and jewellery and this year lasted from 19 to 21 October. One of the exhibitors was Austrian designer Martina Rogy with her spring/summer 2008 collection....

Their launch in fashion was a few seasons ago but for Fall 2007 season studs are finally and definitely a must have. Balenciaga, Fendi, Givenchy, Prada and many other fashion designers played with studs on clothes, shoes and fashion accessories.

If you're on your way to Netherlands you should definitely make a stop in Hague. The Hague Court Fashions Exhibition is opened until 2nd of December 2007, at Gemeentemuseum.

This exhibition is designed by Maarten...

This season we have seen fur coats reaching the highest popularity in the last few years. Not only the real furs but also faux furs and fur replacements like tufty mohair on shaggy coats and jackets.

Looking on eBay for something alike I stumbled upon Patty Boutique shop and some great stuff on sale.

Every fall season the classic trench comes to everyone’s attention. And fashion designers come up with...

Does anyone see the point of these so called (this made me laugh a little) “latest trend” stiletto handbags. No really? I mean, seriously, where does this idea come from? Was it a mind driven by childhood pirate tales with treasures hidden...

Russian fashion designer Masha Sharoeva presented her spring/summer collection at the Russian Fashion Week in Moscow on 14th October 2007 and at the Fashion Forward International Week in Thessaloniki, Greece.

Top choices for embellishment this fall, feathers and fringes outshined embroidery, bead and flower appliqué of the past few seasons.

These new adornment details require, though, a...

Marc Jacobs is one of my favorite designers, not necessarily for his designs, which aren’t that brilliant, but for the impeccable styling of his shows and for the straightforward American spirit he sends forth.

Marc is a great stylist and I always...

I have to say that as a big fan of the Sex And The City HBO show (I saw all episodes more than once) I'm looking forward to see SATC: The Movie which will be released on May 30th, 2008. Images from the...

This print ad for ZU Shoes is, despite beliefs, targeted towards women not to men. I say this because I found it very disapproved by…men.

The concept of “femme fatale” is so common in fashion advertising, whether itâ...

I took a peak these days at Etsy to see what's new and I found Damselle, a jewelry shop by designer Melanie Crowe. She makes beautiful, romantic jewelry, with a bit of a vintage feel, using metal chains, beads of all sort and ingenious pendants. My...

Bold colors are a huge trend for fall 2007 season. Colored handbags and shoes are a welcomed change in the neutral palette. They bring to live any dreary winter wardrobe. And the good news is that you don’t have to match your shoes with...

There was a fun pajamas party at Stella McCartney. Her latest collection showed pretty and wearable clothes in a very laid-back, signature style with a smart adjustment of the season's trends: flowing seventies (again, seventies!)...

Alberta Ferretti is one of my favorite designers as, no matter the main theme of the season is, she always manages to bring forward romance and softness. Her lovely collection for spring 2008 was inspired by Ancient Rome: draped...

Fashion rocks! This fall rough chick look reaches heavy metal level. Silver, gold and pewter chains are used as statement necklaces and as handbag handles.

Were you thinking that multi chains necklaces are out of fashion?...

Matthew Williamson's spring show told the story of a stylish nomad woman traveling around the world while keeping her cool, urban appeal. Ethnic details such as Indian beads and pearls, Mayan patterns or African raffia trim came along with more...
