Among fringe and other boho trends, fashion bloggers have welcomed back brown suede in every item from miniskirts to jackets. Though brown suede might seem like an intimidating trend to pull off, the street style crowd has already forged the way with dozens of cute outfit ideas. For $40.00, Joe B offers suede shorts that help you flawlessly transition from Summer to Fall. Pair them with tights and over-the-knee boots for a sexy take on the trend; or a crisp white blouse and tailored blazer for an equestrian look.

NFL Player Victor Cruz Stars in Givenchy Fall/Winter 2015 Ad Campaign
We were already pumped up for the upcoming NFL season after this past weekend’s football festivities aka NFL Hall Fame Ceremony. However, being the fashion addicts we are seeing football meeting fashion had our style radar way up! NFL superstar Victor Cruz and owner of his own streetwear brand is lending his good looks to Givenchy.
Dang! Uhm… hi Mr. Cruz… 😉
Cruz can be seen in Givenchy’s ad campaign for fall/winter 2015. The suits he wears for the campaign are tailored to absolute perfection. We believe all men should own at least one pinstripe suit in their wardrobe. The style is sophisticated, luxurious and timeless making any man look like an instant classic. If your favorite guy is fighting you on the pinstripe suit tip just tell him it was good enough for The Godfather!
We tip our hats and martinis to Ricardo Tisci for choosing such an influential celebrity in the realm of men’s fashion for the Givenchy campaign. The exquisite ad was lensed by photography legends Marcus Piggot and Mert Atlas. It’s a great look for Givenchy and can’t wait to see more style from Victor Cruz in the future.

Rihanna has the fashion world wrapped around her glamorous finger and is now turning her attention back to the beauty realm. Rihanna has just announced that she soon will be releasing a brand new fragrance to the masses. The soon to be sought after fragrance has been aptly entitled, RiRi, a nickname often used by her adoring legions of fans.
Rihanna revealed via social media how thrilled she is about her upcoming beauty venture. Rihanna took to Instagram stating,

Rihanna Wants You to Upgrade Your Sock Game With Stance
Our favorite model/singer of all time has a new fashion venture that is just simply cool. How many celebrities out there are choosing to endorse socks? Better yet, how many could lend one’s name to a sock brand and make them look like the must-have accessory of the season? We have to say it, but most likely only Rihanna!
Just days ago RiRi released an attention grabbing music video for her music chart hit BBHMM that had everyone talking. Now the trendy, sassy star is the newest face aka Punk and Poet for Stance socks and the brand couldn’t be happier to have her on board. The Vice President of the women’s division of Stance, Candy Harris spilled the beans on why Rihanna was their obvious choice. She said,
“She’s one of the few women in fashion whose style can go from street to couture in the blink of an eye.”
Yeah, just think back on any look by Rihanna whether on a red carpet or on the streets of any another country and it is clear that she just gets “It.” Rihanna oozes a fashion and style appeal that makes even a pink dress that looks like a cupcake seem like the perfect prom dress.However, even though she is one of the few that can get away with wearing a paper sack… socks? Harris revealed,
“I know a lot of people are probably saying ‘Why socks? And that’s really the beauty of it, and that’s why Rihanna’s perfect, because she’s constantly innovating and looking to see what’s next. Socks are not really a trend; they’re a fashion staple.”
After that statement, it does make you have an Aha moment doesn’t it? Think about it, when is the last time someone said, “Oh you are wearing socks? Girl that was so two seasons ago!” We are sure you would be hard pressed to think of a conversation that went like that. Nevertheless, that proves the point that socks are not swayed by time, trends or any other fashion movement. They never go out of style, everyone wears them and they are really an untapped market.
While numerous celebrities are sticking to fragrances, typical fashion lines and hair extensions Rihanna has once again emerged as a true out of the box fashion thinker. For the Murder Rih Wrote (yeah, that’s sock collection name and we love the pun) ad campaign Rihanna seems to mix retro with modern chic due the styling of her hair as well as makeup and the edgy display and vibe of the socks. So then, what is the inspiration behind Rihanna’s first design of socks for Stance? Stance mentioned on their Instagram that,
“Every bad girl knows $$ makes the world go round, @badgalriri‘s first ever collab sock pays tribute to those who know how to hustle as hard as she does.”
Therefore, all the boss ladies of the world unite because we are getting some recognition! Over the past decade Rihanna has proven that hard work and dedication does get you places; especially if you are willing to take a Stance for what you truly believe in.
Fashion Notes: For the past few years runway models have been spotted coming the catwalk with socks and heels. As during those shows, Rihanna’s ad shows that the look doesn’t just have to remain in elementary school. Socks and heels can look just as sexy with the right attitude and vibes. Would you wear it?
