Get ready for sexy, glamorous goth. Yup, black is in, but this time it doesn’t stop at the little black dress. From dark lipstick and Wednesday-like accessories to porcelain pale skin, it’s time to go ‘glam goth’. We had an idea it was on its way, thanks to all of the deep dark nail polish hues that have graced the fingers of celebs and fashion icons for the past year or so. This look, in full effect, is definitely not for everyone, especially those of you who thrive on colorful clothing. But, if you’re the gal who can pull off a Batman-black outfit from head to toe then this is right up your alley. It’s a very sexy, mysterious look if you do it right. Play around with textures, but don’t overdue it because you may look like you’re going trick or treating. This is a great look for a night out on the town!

  • fringe-tastic Fall

    There is something so sexy about fringe and how it dances with every move you make. It goes to the heart of American style, along with denim and a classic white tee. The fringe of this season has graduated to the next level. High end designers like Gucci, Prada, and Thomas Wylde have used the best materials and design to create “über” fringe fashion. Retail shops like Asos, Topshop, and dELiA’s have fabulous fringe styles at more affordable prices. You don’t have to be completely country, or even a little cowboy to pull of the fringe of Fall 2008. Don’t go overboard; choose one item to showcase. A bag is a great way to pop in some fringe. Throw it over your shoulder and you immediately look current. Or pull on a pair of black boots over your jeans, and you’re look is a bit more modern and urban. To pull it off, you’ve got to love the piece you buy. That way, your love will inevitably enhance your creativity with the item. Enjoy!
