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.

DKNY showed off just how fun fashion can be with their runway show highlighting their spring 2015 RTW collection. Boisterous shades, extra large prints and some serious layering added to the chic allure. We loved this out of the box ensemble that proves that layering can look hip, current and very modern.
Fashion Notes: There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing sneakers with a dress of skirt. Fashion doesn’t always have to be so dressy, keep your look causal with flats or athletic kicks.

Make a statement without any extra style fuss by incorporating a pop of color into your fashions. We personally enjoy doing this with a pair of shades since we hail from the state where the sun always shines and it rarely rains. Nevertheless, regardless where you live sunglasses can add an instant flair of glamour to any look that you are working.

The “After Dark” ad campaign which featured model Giselle Bundchen included a snap of the Chanel Classic Flap Bag. What makes this bag so iconic and effortlessly cool? The Spring 2015 Collection handbag incorporates famous prints like Coco Chanel, Ladies First as well as Feministe Mais Feminine letterings. Moreover, The Flap Bag also shows iconic symbols like the Camellia flowers, CC logo and the famous no5 Chanel perfume bottle.
Having a vixen physique, you know the 36-24-36 types hip hop artists and rock stars have been crooning about for decades will never be a bad thing. Nevertheless, being shaped like Jessica Rabbit can be a challenge when wearing certain styles. Most of us do not want to look bigger than our natural size, so then how can stripes be rocked without adding girth to the hip area?
The key is which way the stripes are flowing on the garment, skirt or dress. Look slimmer by wearing pieces that have diagonal or vertical stripes. Instead of seeing lines that emphasis the widest part of your body, stripes that do not run horizontally will create an elongating effect.

We just wanted to thank all of you for your continued support of 1966 magazine. We hope that you have been enjoying every issue as well as our posts here on our blog. We will keep it coming and happy Hump Day!
Fashion Notes: We couldn’t help ourselves we just had to share a quick tip! Don’t be afraid to let your fashions shine this spring/summer and we do mean literally. Shiny couture made with iridescent materials, plastic accessories (think Barbie) are a huge trend. Keep the look understated and streamlined by staying in the same color family or limiting yourself to no more than 3 tints.
