A Little Fairy Dust

When things get dreary, we turn towards things that make us happy and cheerful. We all have our own security blankets that make us warm and fuzzy inside. For me, its fairy tales and sparkles. Things that shine and are brilliant. Things that reflect in the sun or would be found in my own make believe world. These things make you dream, inspire you and are absolutely stunning with their intricacies. Below are some sparkling iPhone and Blackberry cases that you can completely customize to suit your own fantasies. Simply click on the image to do so. Further below are some stunning images that are full of excitement and fairy dust.

Vogue Paris Feb 2012 Kendra Spears

Kendra Spears looks devilishly delightful in this spread for the February issue of Vogue Paris. Although you can get lost in her sexy pouts and steamy poses, recognize the power of layering. This shoot shows us how to layer pieces of jewelry elegantly, with almost a gypsy spin. In each photo the jewelry comes together seamlessly without being too overpowering.

A splash of colour

As I always enjoy Tommy Ton's street photography, I do specifically like his menswear shots. Men seem to have a certain presence on the street, filled with elegance and stature. Whether it be multiple layers, bold accents or simple subtleties, men's streetwear seems to fascinate me beyond no end. This weeks trend seems to be a 'splash of colour', throwing in a little excitement into a bland mix. Why not spice up a plain suit with a little hint of umph. In order to pull off this look properly, one must learn to not over do the splash of colour, making it seem as if you are swimming in Skittles. Hints of colour are the way to go, and no matter how small they are, they will be noticed against a stark plain outfit. For example, coloured buttons on a blazer, a simple scarf or layered jackets. Stay away from dressing all in one colour, or dressing in multiple colours that do not match.

Hibiscus Holiday

Everyone dreams of escaping for the winter season, whether it be to a warm tropical island such as Hawaii, or to an exotic city full of culture and excitement. Whatever it may be, vacations are truly an inspiration this season, as the bright colours are sure to cheer up any winter blues. Look out for great floral patterns, bright sparks of colour and amazing patterns. Be sure to coordinate effectively by toning down your outfit with a solid colour of outerwear or heels. To fully enjoy your outfit, be sure to sip on a lovely island cocktail- perfect for getting in a tropical mood! Below are some more tropical inspirations for decoration and events.
