Black and White was a strong color statement this fashion week in New York, Paris and London. The simple, classic and elegant color statement will definitely continue for the spring/summer season.
Here are few of the looks that were spotted on the streets of MBFW NY, London and Paris.
Thanksgiving is a time for celebrating and gathering with family and friends. While we sparkle during Christmas, thanksgiving is more relaxed and comfortable. After all we have to make room for all the wonderful food.
I thought about which looks I love to wear on this occasion. The first thing that comes to mind is being comfortable but always stylish! I love all the spicy colors and how they add so much warmth to a look. So here are a few of my favorite pieces from Worth New York that I put together.
I hope you enjoy them and have a stylishly fabulous Thanksgiving!
How and when do we start expanding our sock collection?
I used to be low key when it came to socks, buying simple ones which were hidden or attracted little to no attention.
When I saw all of the fashion shows for this Fall/ Winter, the sock had a strong presence down the runway which made me so excited.
Not everyone shares my thoughts, so how can you embrace this new trend and look chic but not feel awkward or uncomfortable? Check out these looks and tips that I now swear by and you will love the sock too! Try:
1. Colorful & patterned sockettes or peds. I wear peds all time and hate it when they show because it makes me look so outdated (old). Well the new neon and brightly colored peds are made to be seen. They make all outfits look cool and young.
2. Patterned ankle socks. Love these cute patterned socks that you can wear with your flats and hide under your pant leg. My favorite way of wearing them though is with open toe shoes and a cool dress or skirts. They are so colorful they are made to be seen.
3. Over the knee socks. You need to be ready for this trend. They are meant to be worn with shorts and mini skirts. The look is playful and sexy at the same time. This is for the girl that loves to wear short skirts but wants to stay warm and look hot!
4. Lace or textured sheer pantyhose. I have not worn pantyhose in years but now is the right time to bring them back. The new textured hose have the most wonderful and interesting patterns. I love the lace patterns and the Swiss dotted looks the best but there are so many tonal patterns you can have fun with. The idea here is wear them with a simple almost conservative attire and let the hose make the outfit.
5. Patterned tights. You can have cable knit tights or go for it and do a color blocked tight. They are again meant to be the focal point of more sporty outfit and can be worn with heels or fun to wear with sneakers as well.
6. The new ombre tights. Love, love, love these tights. They are chic and unexpected colors. The ombre pattern is one that starts with strongest variation of the color and then gets lighter toward your toe. Designer Tiffany Ju created these to highlight a great shoe. I want them in all colors!
7. French seam black pantyhose. Classic sexy and a definite must have for this and every season. Why didn’t I own these before?!
8. Illusion garter hose. So sexy and comfortable. These full hose are designed to create an illusion of wearing a garter belt. You get the sexiness without the fuss.
9. You want the garter belt? Perfect. All these great textured hoses also are available in thigh high hose style with an elastic at the thigh to stay put. This is vintage sex appeal all the way.
10. Last, but not least, you need your basic colorful tights. You can build a sock drawer just with all the wonderful colors from black, grey, brown, taupe, cranberry, navy to fun fuchsia and glow stick yellow.
While it took me some time to embrace this trend, my sock draw is ever expanding and shows no signs of slowing down!
