I was very impressed to see how they changed Gossip Girl gorgeous Blake Lively in this month’s cover of Vogue.  Many people were not happy about this but I think we should give Blake some credit.

She looks so … powerful!! I think that men-destined outfits tend to make you feel like that. The tuxedo is one of Blake’s favourite pieces, it gives the preppy look a new thing and it follows the line of her body. McQ’s tuxedo style jumpsuit from N-A-P brings out the vintage glam look  in a tuxedo outfit. It’s sexy, but still very poweful. The Open Front Blazer from F21 looks exacly like an Upper East Side must have. 

I think that these are 2 trends to last in S/S 2009

Do you like tuxedos?

I looked up Gucci’s website today just to get inspired and I’ve discovered that they’ve developed a very amazing campaign for the White TATTOO HEART COLLECTION as Gucci will donate 25% of the sale to support UNICEF programs for orphans and children affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa. It’s so inspiring to see that our luxury can mean helping people who really need it. Rihanna is endorsing this campaign beacause of her fashion-forward attitude and her iconic figure. And the collection…..it’s amazing!

You can find all these babies on Forever21. We really recommend you the shorts as they are somehow more comfortable than a skirt and they can be matched with flats, sandals or gladiators.

In case you were wondering how to wear bright colors in a office chic outfit, Escada makes it easier. Colorful accents create a pretty fabulous look and you can experiment with different patterns and accessories.

Tailoring is back in action. Go for the perfect masculine style or for the tight glamorous one for a maximum effect.
