What to Know When Shaving Down Heels

Arianne Suggs August 27, 2015August 27, 2015Leave a Comment

Heels are so beautiful and stylish why in the world would you want to shave them? What is shoe shaving in the first place? The act of shaving down a heel is usually performed in order to help the wearer have a more comfortable experience said shoe. A famous designer of heels is quoted as saying that heels are not supposed to be comfortable.

A few blisters and surgeries decades later may have a girl feeling like comfort should of been apart of the equation. Shaving will bring high heels down to a height that puts less stress on the foot. Are there any things that should be kept in mind when having heels shaved?

The total job should cost around $20 and the shoe repair shop of your choice should not shave more than one inch. Anymore length removed could actually cause more discomfort due to the shoe’s arched design. So then, keep it chic ladies and stay comfy!

Arianne SuggsUpdated on August 10, 2015August 10, 2015Leave a Comment

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.

Beautiful Lineisy Montero is one of the modeling rising stars to be featured in Prada’s ad campaign for fall/winter 2015. Montero is joined in the campaign by models Avery Blanchard, Estella Boersma Inga Dezhina, Ine Neefs, Greta Varlese and Maartje Verhoef. In the ad the stylish squad sport tailored coats, jackets, embellished dresses and sweaters with much school collar preppy attitude. It is clear that Prada does not want women to be afraid of stronger color or prints which nicely livens up normal winter attire that tends to focus on darker, drabber styles.

Moreover, it is amazing how the collection screams retro and modern at the exact same time. The entire campaign was captured by photographer Steven Meisel.

Accessories Report: We immediately took notice of the long-sleeved gloves featured in the campaign. Long gloves are so old Hollywood chic and convey upscale luxury. So then, this fall and winter feel free to have an Audrey Hepburn moment…Prada has given us the okay.

Paris fashion week is in full swing and numerous celebrities have come out to play. Naomi Campbell still knows how to excite fashion onlookers and work it! The gorgeous supermodel attended the Atelier Versace runway show in an all white power suit.

Naomi clearly demonstrates that there is no need to fear that one may look too ‘masculine’ when wearing suits. It is all about the tailoring and fit of the suit so that curves are not lost or swallowed up. Moreover, the openness of the deep V cut adds some sassy appeal revealing a touch of skin.

Arianne Suggs July 3, 2015July 3, 2015Leave a Comment

We have said it before and we will say it again, this woman is giving us life! The Magic Mike XXL tour rolls on and at its recent destination Jada Pinkett once more stole the red carpet show! Jada has been an absolute gem in every city the Magic Mike crew has touched down in to promote the film.

Pinkett hit the red carpet premiere in Amsterdam in an ombre Versace gown with sheer details. Like at previous premieres, Jada finished dolling up her look with jewelry by Monica Vinader.

The whole squad still looking good too!

Hair Notes: Who says women with short hair do not have options? Jada has been working her short cut like rent is due! We love the style variation with tresses pulled back off the face to the side with wispy strands floating free. The overall result is flirtatious, sophisticated and very polished.

Fashionable Mention: Chanel Pre-Fall 2015 Floral Cardigan

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 2, 2015July 2, 2015Leave a Comment

In the realm of fashion usually when florals rear their couture heads is during the spring season. Spring is the time when every garden is an Eden and designers use this natural occurrence as inspiration. Nevertheless, the Chanel fashion house has never been one to follow the mold and for their Pre-Fall collection are throwing out the conventional point of view.

One piece of the collection that really stood out to us was a floral cardigan that seems to invoke royalty and splendor. The detailing is simply exquisite as well as intricate due to its crystal floral embroideries and appliqués. Truly fit for a queen and shows that it is absolutely okay to bend the rules of fashion. Just because a particular season comes to end, does not indicate that the trends should as well.
