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!

Look of the Week: Keke Palmer in Giulietta Resort 2016

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

Miss Palmer killed it a few weeks back when she attended Comic Con and several network parties. Therefore, it is no surprise that she would continue to slay as she attended yet another all-star event. For the 2015 Teen Choice Awards Keke stunned all in a design from Giulietta Resort 2016.

The color scheme as well as geometric design of the gown make this dress one fun, flirty little number. Moreover, the strappy shoes harmonized with the dresses straps perfectly. In the accessory department we also loved Keke’s tattoo choker. These were so cool to wear as a kid so we are so glad that they are back in vogue!

Beauty Notes: Keke demonstrates how to balance makeup so as not to look slightly clownish. Since she chose to rock with a rather strong eye makeup look, Palmer then kept the rest of her makeup simple incorporating a nude lip.

Arianne Suggs August 12, 2015August 12, 2015Leave a Comment

Just in case you missed some of our Fashion Week posts earlier in the year we will be recapping a few things over the course of the next few weeks to get you in diva form for the upcoming seasons. Do you love accessories as much as bees love their honey? Girl so do we and we loved what we spotted coming down the catwalk during the fall/winter Giambattista Valli 2015-2016 runway show.

The stunner shades models wore gave a brand new meaning to the expression, “Go big or go home.” Models were adorned with sunglasses that seemed to take up 70% of their faces. We didn’t mind the ginormous size because some of the fashions modeled had a floral theme. So then, to us it was like the bumble bee meeting up with a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

Summer Fashion That Works For Fall: Off The Shoulder Top

Arianne Suggs August 11, 2015August 11, 2015Leave a Comment

Buying essentials that can last more than one season will not only make your wallet fatter, but will make styling much simpler. One piece that will still be good to go come fall is the off the shoulder blouse. Right now this top is most likely being paired with short-shorts or a mini due to the heat. Nevertheless, once the temperature starts to fall some only a few tweaks will be necessary to transform the look for autumn.

Denim will never fail you when it comes to rocking this top. Jeans are the perfect vehicle to make your off shoulder tops fall ready. Keep things causal yet sexy thanks to the hints of skin.

If you want to make your look a little more dressy try pairing your off shoulder top with a pencil skirt. Curves will be instantly noticeable driving the sassy appeal meter upwards. Add a side split for even more head turning appeal.

As it it gets colder most feel its impossible to display curves like they once did in the summer heat. Combat this by wearing your top with high-waisted pants which will give a sexier illusion without being too exposed.

Whoever said you couldn’t wear white after Labor Day didn’t know how to have some fashion fun! Yes, even after the holiday ends white pants and an off shoulder top is oh tres’ chic!

Growing up in California you quickly learn that there is no such thing as fall LOL it’s still hot! So for those of us you leave in warmer climates continue to wear those shorts by try wearing a pair with embellishment. Also, if you want to infuse some Cali flair into your ensemble, tie a side knot in your off the shoulder top and you will fit right in.

Fall 2015 Shoe Trend: Pointed Toe Heels

Arianne Suggs August 11, 2015August 11, 2015Leave a Comment

There were a few choice words that came to mind that we are unable to repeat when we noticed a particular shoe trend coming on the horizon. Oh it is not that we do not absolutely love the style of this particular shoe it is just that our cute little manicured toes loathe them. If you guessed pointed toe shoes then you have scored 10 points in the shoe game department.

Pointed toe heels are a trend that is rolling over from spring on into the fall and winter seasons. Givenchy, Christain Louboutin and Coach all have designs with the pointy flair. To survive this shoe trend without experiencing too much pain aim for pointed toe heels where the point does not stop right where your toes will be resting.

Moreover, you may even consider going up just a half a size. This small change can also afford you and your toes a little more wiggle room giving you more comfort. Therefore, enjoy rocking this trend later this year and without needing crutches.

Get Your Man Right: GQ Mag’s Fall/Winter 2015 Fashion Editorial

Arianne Suggs August 7, 2015August 7, 2015Leave a Comment

If Bae would like a little advice as to how to look like he just walked out of the Monte Carlo with Agent 007 showing him the sights ( tell him that, he’ll love it), then there is a special GQ issue he’ll enjoy flipping through. Gift your man with GQ’s September issue which includes a nifty fashion editorial highlighting the best of men’s fall/winter 2015 couture. The editorial includes designs by Armani, Gucci, Boss and Prada just to name a few.

Some of the looks that we took note of were by Boss, Ralph Lauren and Versace. Boss and Ralph Lauren both showcase models wearing a turtleneck top and tailored jacket. This is perfect for the guy that does not always like to wear a tie or just has a hard time matching them to his suits. The guesswork and stress of coordinating is eliminated and a guy still gets to keep the sauve factor going.

Nevertheless, Versace had us talking over our cups of coffee due to the boldness of putting a man in a fur. If your man has a boisterous personality and doesn’t mind taking fashion risks then this look will bring out his style passion. Check out some of the editorial to inspire your man’s fashion juices to get flowing.
