What can we say, this campaign is just sick! The punk style has gone under the fashion knife on several occasions but the true essence of the look remains the same. An aspect of punk couture we have always favored is that some use it to make an awesome statement. From anti-materialism to not being considered stereotypical punk clothing has been a truly cool protest against mainstream culture. With that said, designer Viktor Luna is throwing his hat into the punk mix this season. See his vision by checking out the Viktor Luna Fall Winter 2016 Punx Republic Campaign!

Viktor Luna Fall Winter 2016 Punx Republic Campaign

Plaid, spikes, leather, metallics and fur. What’s not to like? Fashion is a form of self expression and should therefore never be boring. Moreover, Luna’s campaign is the farthest thing from being considered characterless.

Its chic, fun and a nice departure from the usual. Luna’s fine tailoring and construction has always enthralled us and he does not disappoint with this collection. Furthermore, the Viktor Luna Fall Winter 2016 Punx Republic Campaign showcases several eye-catching pieces including a harness.

Yes, you read that correct Viktor designed a Turbo Leather Harness. Instantly, we thought 2036 prosthetics? Very cool work Luna and looking forward to seeing more in the future!

Guess who’s back? You already know, our very own style ambassador, Carly! As you may remember from past posts Carly has been busy living the life of a college girl. School keeps her hopping but she always has a place right here in the 1966 Mag fambam. Since being one of our ambassadors, she has shared many thoughts with us on how she balances school and remain looking fantastic. In today’s post she is filling us in on what’s big in fashion for SA F/W 2016!

Lets break that down just in case (wink, wink). SA F/W 2016. SA F/W 2016 means South Africa Fall/Winter 2016. Okay, everybody good? Perfect! Here’s what our lovely doll had to say:

“We are heading to winter on this side of the globe. Personally, during the seasonal transition I noticed that colours don’t really change much haha Nevertheless, there is another change that has happened. Unfortunately, I haven’t been out shopping or been fully indulging in the fashion world lately. On the daily I seem to find myself falling into my usual style, my uniform (overalls n boots) lol I am always in that! However, I do try to change it up a little colour-wise like with nude or a dusty pink. Speaking of colour for SA F/W 2016 there is a popular trend here that I can share. The whole dark green military trend its still going on here. Looks like it’s here to stay!

Always nice to know what is popular or en vogue around the globe. Carly always has a few words of wisdom for us when we check in with her. We thought what she said was definitely how all of us girls should think. She mentioned,

I believe we are all winners… It is up to you whether you choose to win or lose. In everything I choose to put my mind to I choose to win.”

You go girl! Let us all continue to win. Let us all continue to succeed. It is not just about the beauty, let us always also focus on the brains and determination to turn our dreams as well as goals into realities.

Style Ambassador: The Military Vest X Denim

Sometimes in the realm of fashion all it takes is one simple addition of an article of clothing to update a look for the better. Our Style Ambassador Carly demonstrates how to do this in one simple step. How did she channel her inner Beyonce and “upgrade” her denim? Carly leveled up her couture look with the help of military designed fashion. She revealed to us,

“Its a very playful outfit! Kept it really simple with my old jeans, but with a touch of military which in turn bought life to the outfit lol! Feels so new.”

There you have it gals with the help of a military style vest Carly took her ensemble from old to fresh and new! Instead of throwing away “older” fashions, try modernizing them with trendy pieces to give them new life!

Love color? Color is a simple method to add more flava and spark to your ensemble. Add bright accessories only if you wish to enjoy a more conservative look.
