Stars of Project Runway Fashion Show!

Arianne Suggs March 25, 2015March 25, 2015Leave a Comment

Last night no designers were told “Auf Wiedersehen” which when translated means “goodbye” in German. The popular Heidi Klum send off to contestants eliminated from the fashion design competition show was replaced by oohs, ahs and much applause from the packed out house of stylish onlookers. The show included Project Runway alums: Dom Streater, Daniel Esquivel, Michelle Lesniak and Patricia Michaels. Although the show began with a video from Michael Costello stating that he would not be in attendance, Costello surprised one and all by showing his collection and walking the runway with the other designers in a celebratory finale extravaganza.

Kevan Hall Goes Sporty for El Paseo Fashion Show

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 26, 2015March 23, 2015Leave a Comment

Sportswear is tough to not only design, but make it look chic from every angle.

When worn a designer would need to think of how it would work as well as look with movement. Kevan Hall seemed to fully understand what women are looking for when purchasing sportswear.

His collection included many often over looked details especially from a style viewpoint. We especially took note of the vivid colors, which Hall told us he felt made the designs pop and encapsulated the season perfectly. We would have to agree one hundred fold that Hall’s designs were fresh and unpretentious.

These forward looking silhouettes would keep any lady from blending in with the rest of the crowd at the local country club.

Candice Held Shows at El Paseo Fashion Week

Designer Candice Held proved that all a woman really needs is the right dress.

Her collection included beautiful prints and gowns of various lengths that accentuated the model’s shapes effortlessly. The collection would be excellent for summer holidays or jet-setting around the world thanks to their resort-like feel. It is oh, so easy to literally envision ourselves in these fabulous designs while in the Caribbean or on a Hawaiian escapade.

We studied the looks and fell in love with the bow ties that held the gowns together in the back. Little details such as these made the collection a true delight to engage ones stylish senses.

Rihanna Dolls Up in Pink Dior Gown for Home Premiere

Arianne Suggs March 23, 2015March 23, 2015Leave a Comment

Our initial reaction to RiRi’s fashion statement at the Los Angeles premiere of animated film Home, was wow she looks like a doll! We are sure if a Rihanna doll made it’s way to the toy aisle Mattel would make a serious grip. We are talking Elmo level pandemonium people… then again that’s the everyday life of Rihanna right now.

RiRi hit the red carpet in a pink satin gown by Dior that made us want to watch Breakfast at Tiffany’s for the 100 million time. Rihanna looked elegant, sophisticated and very old Hollywood glam. We love us some Rihanna whether her style is “badgal” or a conservative good girl.

Hair of the Week Rihanna at “HOME” Premiere in Los Angeles

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 26, 2015March 23, 2015Leave a Comment

We can’t wait for the adorableness known as the cartoon movie, Home to slide on into theaters. Until then, we will just hair crush some more on Miss Fenty! Rihanna stunned as per usual at the L.A. premiere of her new flick with locks pulled up into a high bun with a full bang. Great protective hairstyle that is fabulous for spring weather.

Fashion Quote March 23, 2015

“That is the key of this collection, being yourself. Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way to live.”

-Gianni Versace

Editor’s Diary: El Paseo Fashion Week 2015

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 22, 2015March 22, 2015Leave a Comment

El Paseo Fashion Week is in full effect and we are flexing our own fashion muscle. So then, how did we decide how to style ourselves for this stylish night out?

Alicia: I love the color red so it was a simple choice to go with a sassy red dress. I accessorized my look with a gold necklace and black/gold heels. I always believe that great fashion should accentuate your best assets.

Arianne: I wanted to go bold without being the loudest lady in the room! You can never go wrong with a nice print, and with stripes being a huge trend for spring, I felt it was the perfect choice for the night. As many women always fear, I dread being caught in the exact same ensemble as someone else. For this reason, knowing that most attendees [women] would opt for a dress or pant suit, I decided to go with shorts.

Did we work it for the El Paseo Fashion Week 10th Anniversary celebration? Talk fashion with us on our Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr or tweet us @1966magazine.

As the Thakoon Spring/Summer fashion show proves simplicity is just as beautiful as any intricate hairstyle. As showcased on Thakoon’s models try a deep middle part with locks gently pinned back for a refined, svelte look.

Fashionable Mention: Carolina Herrera

Arianne Suggs March 18, 2015March 18, 2015Leave a Comment

Carolina Herrera just makes fashion look so easy, breezy with much sophistication. Add emphasis where you want it most with a few simple style tricks. We felt this look by Carolina Herrera is perfect for any woman who wants to show off her assets Are you small chested lady who wants to give a little more attention to the girls? Wear a top with a deep V-cut to draw eyes downward. Are you looking to show off your hips to add more va-va voom to your overall look? Then, wearing horizontal stripes across the hip area will give the illusion of more shape.
