Lady Gaga To Write Fashion Column Books

Lady Gaga does not hide her love of fashion, so it is nice to see that she will get the chance to write about it in a magazine. V Magazine has hired Gaga to write for their upcoming summer issue’s fashion column. Here is what Gaga tweeted about the news.

Are you happy that Lady Gaga gets a chance to write about fashion now? I wonder if she will wind up designing her own fashion line? Or at least team up with a bigger label for a smaller collection? She clearly adores fashion, so I don’t see why she won’t end up one day designing her own line.

Are you planning to buy the magazine to see what she wrote? I have a feeling that it won’t be long until she publishes a book about her fashion tips. She could quickly become as a well of known fashion icon as Victoria Beckham.

Check Out Anna Dello Russo's Crazy Fashion Week 'Fits

Imagine packing for Fashion Week in Milan and Paris. What would you stick in your suitcase? Lots of black, skinny jeans, killer heels, and some statement jewellery? Or how about a cherry hat, fur, and couture outfits that don't look like they even fit in a suitcase? So fascinated are we by the peerless Vogue Nippon editor Anna Dello Russo that we started tracking her outfits. She takes more fashion risks in one week than we will in our entire lifetime, which is why we love her.

Will You Wear Chanel's Latest Nail Shade in Mimosa?

Pictures are out, and so I must talk about the latest 'it' lacquer from Chanelcalled Le Vernis Nail Colour in Mimosa that is set to launch this April as part of the Spring 2011 collection.

It's bright, sexy, daring and something we've seen on A-list stars like Rihanna,Katy Perry and even Natalie Portman in the past couple of Spring/Summers in shiny opaques. However, this yellow shade is more like the bubbly it's named after (in the UK, we also call this orange juice, champy mix a buck's fizz) as it contains flecks of green and gold shimmer too. I'm excited for a Sunday brunch mimosa cocktail wearing Chanel Mimosa — how about you?

Fashion trends 2011: what goes

A few days of receiving a new year 2011, and having reviewed all the trends that have emerged with the new season, we have to admit that some will stay with us throughout the next year (and maybe longer), while others be forgotten as an attempt to fashion which was not consolidated.

Know what those trends should not miss in your looks, 2011. This time we were inspired by the most knowledgeable fashion (many of them thanks to their stylists) celebrities.

For a more formal or party, do not hesitate to decant you by pastel shades, such as have Eva Mendes and Kate Bosworth. No matter whether it is spring or winter where you live, this trend remains unchanged. To add a plus of distinction, add-ons to your look with jewels or pick a dress in a fabric that has a subtle touch of shine.

Sweater and a leather belt is the star combination in outerwear. Whether a thin cardigan or a thick knitted jersey, one of the goals is to make your figure despite having a warm garment. This look is already on the street and actress Rosario Dawson also preferred.

The return of the living room pointed shoes with high heels and thin. A good option is in conjunction with cigarette pants or skinny, so create the sensation of having longer legs and stylized. Charlize Theron takes them in black and faded jeans, while Michelle Monaghan adds a touch of color (red shoes) very retro black pants.

The military-style jacket is that succeeds warm clothes this winter. Sarah Jessica Parker, a real fashion icon, a model combines short leather skirt with lace ruffle (all brown) opts for Kylie Minogue a coat, printing a touch of “chic” to a casual outfit. All fashion retailers have embraced this trend, including Zara, that throughout 2010 we have offered various models of military-style jackets.

A maxi-jersey can also be worn as dress, or a knit dress with short sleeves, are two of the many alternatives in this warm winter clothing, which can add a belt to stylize your picture. Nicole Richie and Cameron Diaz also pointed to this trend.

Sunnies

If you're anything likes us then as soon as spring's in sight, you start thinking about what sunglasses you're going to sport once the sky turns blue!

Thanks to an introduction to Megan Trimble, we knew what sunglasses we'd be buying come spring all the way back in December.

One half of independent eyewear brand Zanzan (Megan's creative partner is fellow creative Gareth Townshend), we couldn't help but get ridiculously excited about the beautiful and unusual sunglasses the duo create.

The idea to introduce a new eyewear brand came to Megan and Gareth in 2009. Deciding to call it Zanzan - a word that Maltese gangsters used to describe a snappy look back in the 60s - their sunglasses have a decidedly vintage feel.

Drawing on their flirtations with photography, fashion and design, the duo's frames standout with their decidedly English sensibility. "We share an appetite for culture in all its glorious guises and created Zanzan as an expression of this passion," explains Megan.

For SS11, the unusual colours that you see in Zanzan's frames come from acetate dating back to the 60s and 70s. They're the ultimate in limited-edition frames - handmade in extremely small numbers so you won't spot them on anyone else.

Another thing we love about Zanzan? Their Soho-based office! Packed with too many exciting things to mention, it makes you realize just how much creative energy goes into making each frame. Want a pair? So do we!

Cute Girl Band

We first came across The Like – an American 60s-inspired girl band – a while back in 2010

Since then they’ve been popping up in all the right places and we were suddenly compelled to pay homage to their super cute retro style when we found out that they’ll soon be touring here, there and everywhere!

Headed up by Elizabeth ‘Z’ Berg (vocals and guitar), Tennessee Thomas (drums), Laena Geronimo (bass), and Annie Monroe (organ), it looks like 2011 is the year for these girls. And the best bit? Their latest album is just as cool as their standout 60s look!

From early February, they’re heading out on tour so check out where they are and when, and go check out their style and vocals!

If you want to follow suit and fancy a dose of retro style, we have just the trend for you - get in the 60s vibe with Demi Couture!
