Rainy Days!!!!

Fashion heads today is a day to relax and enjoy the smell of the rain. It's calming and soothing so take it all in. But even the busiest of the busiest don't let a little weather stop them, so if you have to go out today dress accordingly. Today is a great day to throw on your favorite rain boots whether they are printed with stripes or solid in dark colors, just be prepared for the puddles. Skinny legs and a cardigan would do the trick. Keep a pair of ballet flats if your going somewhere rain boots aren't appropriate. No matter what you do today just make you look the way you want to look and feel as good as possible!!!! And before I leave here's a  rainy view from my home!

Snakes on the pavement!!!!



  It is no surprise that the runways for fall fashion have been graced with animal print, snakeskin prints python being the star. Animal print makes a statement of boldness and fierceness, its no wonder designers behind world renowned Chloe, Gucci and Prada have done the snakeskin proud in their fall collections. In these lines everything from the accessories,bags and shoes are getting a reptilian upgrade. Chloe makes use of shades of browns and yellows, while Gucci goes bold with greens including hunter and purple. And Prada takes basics like black and white to jazz up knee length boots for there take on this look. Every fashion head can let out their inner chic and sexy reptile side. Strutting down the street in a print like python will turn heads. Visit Neiman Marcus or Saks Fifth Ave to get a piece of print. ( pictures are shown in order of designer name)

The Reinvention!!!!!

    Producer/Rapper Swizz Beats now Alicia Keys' husband continues to make him self known as a fashion guru. He started with the studded luxury high top sneakers by collaborating with Mr Red Bottom Christian Louboutin. The sneakers became an instant success with hip hop heads all over including rappers Fabolous and Rick Ross. After the success of that collaboration Swizz Beats took it a step further and bigger by helping classic sneaker brand Reebok introduce a new line of hip, fresh and funky sneakers this summer. Swizz lends his love of footwear and his personal style to the new line Reethym of Lite. The classic styles of Reebok now have  high tech design and features added to them for a look that represents the future. In recognizing the new line rappers' Rick Ross and Meek Mills of the MMG label even celebrated the release of the line with a song properly titled "Reebok's Back". Swizz being a musical powerhouse has delivered his newest song "International Party" as the theme for the Reethym of Lite campaign along with a video directed by the well known Chris Robinson whom is responsible for numerous music videos and the 2006 hit movie Atl that featured rapper T I. Swizz Beats has a new album and a new line of sneakers, his talent is amazing along with his style and I look forward to bigger and better things from him in the future..maybe a clothing line???
