Arianne Suggs May 20, 2015May 20, 2015Leave a Comment

Here is a prime example of chic done easy to the breezy. For a modern spring look pair a tailored jacket with capri pants and strappy heels. Comfort and sophistication is not hard to achieve making this look essential for the lady constantly on the move. Scared that you might look too stuffy? Worry not, that is where your hair comes into play. Keep the look more fresh and youthful by wearing a messy up-do. Remember everything does not have to be perfect in order for an ensemble to be simply perfection.

Fashionable Mention: Blumarine Spring/Summer 2015

Arianne Suggs May 20, 2015May 20, 2015Leave a Comment

Forget the florals what’s really making fashion tongues wag is skin. Skin is always in but seems to be escalating to new heights. It is not enough to have a plunging neckline or high split skirt. Now it is all about sheer detailing to draw eyes in towards the physique. If we looked like model Cindy Bruna (pictured) we’d probably rock it too.

Fashionable Mention: Saint Laurent Spring/Summer 2015 Shoes

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

Beginning this week on the 1966 Magazine youtube channel (be sure to follow us 😉 you’ll love it) we will be rolling out videos ranging from fashion to travel. Being obsessed with dressing up our two buddies downstairs that we walk on daily, one such video series P.O.V. aka Point of View will showcase some of our favorite heels from our very own closets. Until you get to see those here is a fashionable mention to tie you over!

For their summer collection Saint Laurent is rolling out strong in the shoe scene with platform heels. We constantly rave on here about platforms because unlike other heel styles, platforms are very comfortable. They may be higher than a skyscraper but the fear stops there, you gain the height without out all the pain fright. Saint Laurent freshened up the platform look with 3-D embellishments such as bows, stars, studs as well as prints and saucy color.

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.”
