Winter 2010-2011 Must Have: The Fur Vest

The fur vests make a strong come back this season. It is a universal attire that looks elegant or trendy casual, depending on the items paired with it.

How to Wear A Fur Vest:

Pair faux or real fur vests with skinny jeans, shiny leggings, slim pants, shorts or a flirty dress. Remember that whatever you pair it with should be slim fitting to counteract the bulk of the waistcoat. If worn improperly you will look bigger than you actually are, which is no good.
Try peep-toe ankle boots for a chic look or ballet shoes for a casual look.

Faux fur comes in a great number of colors and patterns. Brown and gray color fur vests allow more color gradations and have more visual interest. Black and white fur vests tend to look flat, unless you wear the long-haired one. There are mock-neck, v-neck, or fold-down collar fur vests. Fur vest is a fun item that looks great with many items in your wardrobe! Wearing strong prints such as zebra or leopard for the fur vest may be a little overpowering and are best reserved for shoes or accessory items instead.

LACE - Fashion Trend 2011. How to wear lace.

Lace is very womanly  and it never really goes out of fashion, as lace clothing can be found among chain- store clothing rails throughout the year. Lace will become a popular fashion, and featured in many clothing shopes. When it's not so popular, lace becomes a classic and still remains in the fashion market.

Lace clothing gives a chic look, and can look beautiful without exertion.`But there's a few risks in wearing lace clothing, for example you can look too Gothic.

How you should wear lace.
You should avoid wearing jewelery with lace, as this will probably look over the top. Wear it with minimum jewelery. If you choose wearing lace wear it with stud earrings, or a gold bangle. Pearls are not good with lace.

Go for fine lace, rather than large chunky patterns. On the subject of hems, another one to avoid is a jagged, uneven cut. Medieval like fashion looks very silly on most people!

Never wear white stockings, unless your going to a dress-up party! Black lace stockings are hot with skirts in winter, but don't ever wear them with a denim skirt. Denim skirt plus black lace stockings is running the risk of looking trailer-trash. Avoid bright coloured skirts too. Black stockings will always go best with a black skirt. If your wear black stockings with a black skirt, go for a different coloured top, to avoid looking Gothic.

Lace panels on clothing is a good alternative to full lace garments.

If a clothing item is made completely of lace, wear it down with simple clothing. Plain, bold colours are good, all colours go with black, but brown. It's not really a good look to wear lace with clothing that is patterned or printed.

Be careful about wearing denim with lace. A garment with minimal lace, and particularly white lace, goes great with denim. But don't take it any further, like wearing a top made of completely lace, with a pair of jeans. It's a sort of stereotypical look, that doesn't look that nice.
