Celebrity Who Wore It Best

Celebrities tend to almost shop in the same stores therefore they might end up wearing the same outfit and most of the time its at different events or functions. Though you will rarely find them wearing the same outfit at a similar event.
The difference in the outfits is usually how each one accessorized the outfit. Either with jewelry, shoes or even a handbag. So here goes some pics of celebs who wore the same outfit but differently accessorized. Question is WHO WORE IT BEST?

The Vera Wang Spring 2013 Bridal Collection was a colorful affair with gowns coming in deep reds, maroon and even deep mahogany brown. The elegant gowns showcased were a breath of fresh air from the normal white, off white or ivory bridal gowns. Beautiful to look at and even touch judging from the way the fabric flowed, it was evident that Vera Wang took extra tender loving care to create these master pieces.
For the bride who loves color and loves to be unique. ENJOY!

Louis Vuitton Condoms, Designed By Irakli Kiziria,


You've heard of top-notch bedding and lingerie brands, but is there room in bed for another designer?
One artist seems to think so.
Georgia Republic architect Irakli Kiziria has designed a Louis Vuitton condom, enveloped in the label's notorious brown packaging and adorned with what looks like raised lettering (for enhanced pleasure, we can only assume). The luxury rubbers are priced at $68 each, according to the "official" website. (Scroll below for photos.)
To put the price in perspective, $68 could buy you about six 12-packs of regular condoms.
But before you head to your nearest Louis Vuitton retailer, you should know the condoms aren't available in stores. (Bummer, right?)
In fact, Kiziria has no affiliation with the Louis Vuitton company and drafted the condoms in collaboration with Design Provocation as a design-project, according to the website. The team hoped to launch the product on World AIDS Day and donate the proceeds to amfAR, The Foundation For AIDS Research.

Michelle Obama in Stripes


Michelle Obama looks great in any outfit she wears. This year's trends have seen the stripped look come back and since she is stylish lady, She looks quite good in this stripped look. The trick with stripes is you have to be careful not to over do it or else you end up looking too busy and out of place.
For stripes you can have a portion of the outfit with a single line or two of stripes or you can have stripes from top to bottom.
The stripes can be vertical or horizontal but caution needs to be taken when choosing the pattern for the stripes. If you are really tall and slim avoid vertical stripes as they will make you look elongated and taller than you really are, on the other hand if you are full figured avoid horizontal stripes as they will make you to appear larger than your real size.
Either way if you can pull off both horizontal and vertical stripes, have fun experimenting with color, texture a mix of several colors and even designs. Just pick a fashion idea from the First Lady and you can never go wrong or regret coming out of the house. As you can see whether it is state functions, dinner, a day out with the family or on official business stripes are a wonderful, sexy and elegant fashion style.
Stripes can be a full dress, a skirt or just a blouse, even a stripped scarf would suffice. Trust Michelle, she knows what looks good and knows how to work it!

Trending now Earlace Earrings


These are the newest trends in fashion accessories, as far as jewellery goes the ear lace jewellery is the best so far. This is because they make head turning statement for the wearer. The inspiration for the ear-lace comes from the need to wear earrings and a necklace at the same time without having to decide which earrings go with which necklace, quite inventive i must say.This is something that can be worn as both earrings and necklace. Be warned this style is for the brave hear-ted as it takes a strong will to have earrings that come up to your chest. Some are made of a lighter metal so as not to become too heavy to strain the neck or pull at the ear lobes. You can accessorize with feathers or plain pair with a cute outfit and you are good to go.

Call the Fashion Police: Top 10 Summer Fashion Don'ts


 I'm not sure if it's the sticky-hot temperatures or just the memory of carefree childhoods, but there's something about summer time that encourages adults to lose a level of decency and taste. It happens year after year -- the streets are suddenly flocked with unflattering and juvenile fashion statements, young and old, men and women, professional and non-professional alike. We might shrug our shoulders because it's summer and it's hot, but there are certain summer fashion faux pas that simply make you look ridiculous. And you need to stop it. Here are my (and surely, yours) 10 top worst pet peeves about summer fashion gone wrong

10. Unmanicured Feet Unmanicured Feet

Speaking of feet. Men and women alike are guilty of this, and it's probably my biggest pet peeve. If you aren't going wear your pretty little sandals or your manly summer flip flops, at least make your feet look presentable.

9. Short-Sleeve Button-Down Shirt

Another major office (and even more baffling, out-of-the-office) fashion DON'T that always reappears when the temperatures spike is the short-sleeved button-down shirt. I have two words for you: Dwight Schrute. At least wear it in a solid color, no prints
