Fashionable Mention: Versace Men’s S/S 15 Collection

Arianne Suggs April 24, 2015April 24, 2015Leave a Comment

Toga! Toga! Toga! Versace is known for making men feel like high-ranking kings of the world through impeccable designs and tailoring. Nevertheless, what really caught our eye this season was the beach wear for men. The models coming down the runway embodied Greek Olympian strength and panache that made us want to go put a gold medal around their necks. The overall look may be a little much to translate into the streets but the opulence of the collection is still refreshing to see. Versace proves that swim wear for men can be in the words of Drake, “Fancy.”

Get Your Man Right: Pop of Color

Arianne Suggs April 24, 2015April 24, 2015Leave a Comment

The simplest way to get Bae to add a little more flavor to his wardrobe is by having him add a pop of color to his ensemble. It can be a simple addition that focuses more on his accessories than his main fashion pieces. For example, if he loves his kicks (shoes) or likes wearing hats help him punch those up by opting for more boisterous shades. Notice how these two NBA players are getting down with the pop of color. The added shades are noticeable yet not overbearing so that the whole outfit gets noticed. Make fashion even more fun for your dude by having him incorporate his favorite color or tint into the mix.

Lookbook: The Red Dress

Arianne Suggs April 14, 2015April 14, 2015Leave a Comment

Bright, bold colors are great to go along with spring’s festive and vibrant vibe. Birds are singing, flowers are blossoming which encourages styles that are airy and relaxed. However, whenever I want to punch things up a bit I stay in the realm of bold shades and opt for red. Red is sassy and fun and looks great on a wide range of skin tones.

I paired my red dress with gold accessories, including a bracelet and snake head heels. Since the color is boisterous tons of accessories are not really necessary. So then, have fun with your fashion and don’t be afraid to add some vibrancy to your look.

Love Always,

Arianne
