Elie Saab Fall 2013 Haute Couture Collection


To say that the collection is amazingly breath taking would be an understatement Elie Saab Fall Haute Couture 2013 was spectacular. The clothes were gracious, beautiful and flowed like they were not even touching the ground! I loved all the vibrant colors especially the Ruby-red and the Sapphire. The sequins on the gowns shone brightly making them appear even more beautiful. The draped chiffon gowns were especially the highlight of the gowns in my opinion. Creative.Haute Couture.Breath taking. Lovely. The clothes simply left an impression on me so I had to give you the whole collection. 

Bring your Sexy back with Pearl Necklaces

Big or small, Pearls are the epitome of beauty and sexiness. Pearls have been in existence for a long time and a are a timeless and necessary staple to any lady's wardrobe. A preserve of the wealthy, rich and fabulous, now pearls have become a must have for any woman who desires to be treated like a lady and have her hand kissed by prince charming.
Pearls come in all sizes from the delicate small one to the chunky ones. The most popular Pearls are white in color but black pearls have a mystery around them that makes the wearer seem mysterious and almost explainable. When wearing pearls you can wear one long one and let it hang loose on your chest. You can even put it around your neck several times to create a layered look. You can even choose to layer the Pearl necklace with metallic one like the way Sandra Bullock has done below.
Pearls look great worn with the Little Black Dress which makes them stand out. You can wear them for dinner or official functions paired with a trouser  or skirt suit. Either way wearing the Pearl necklace has no rules just mix and match or wear it alone, they add that sexiness that every woman wants to exude.
Pearls are no longer worn just for weddings you can rock them for whatever function you have or just to add class to your outfit.

The Ankara Fashion has been trending for a while now and everybody seems to be embracing it with zeal and excitement. African Prints have never been so popular as they are right now.

The possibilities of the Ankara Print Fashion are endless, just have fun and show the world your inner fashion sense. Sample some styles that you can be inspired with.
