<div><p></p><p>Fashion inspiration comes from a wide variety of places. If you’re looking to truly wow the crowds, you can’t just rely on the looks offered to you in department stores. Try these tips to create a unique and inspired fashion statement.</p><h2>Go Retro with Old Magazines</h2><p>Fashion history is always a great place to start your fashion search. Many fashion magazines have archives that go back nearly a hundred years; browse through old issues to see what the hottest styles were when your parents were kids.</p><p>Bits and pieces of retro fashions can be mixed with modern styles. Look for accessory ideas, unique fabrics, and silhouettes that you might like to emulate.</p><p>Retro magazines are also a good way to decide what you don’t want to wear. History exists to be analyzed and critiqued; if something didn’t work, think about why.</p><h2>See What Today’s Celebrities Are Wearing</h2><p>Celebrities are fashion forerunners for a reason. They have the budget, the time, and the designers to help them make fantastic fashion statements.</p><p>Check out the celebrity news for both your country and countries across the world. <span><a href="https://www.stylerave.com/category/celebrity-style/">Nigerian celebrity news</a></span> is full of the hottest styles. You might also want to see what they’re wearing in Paris, New York, Sydney, and Singapore.</p><p>Remember that you don’t need to copy celebrity styles directly. If your favorite actress wore a floral print dress, you probably won’t find the same one—but you can emulate the cut, the color, or simply the vivacity of her style. Celebrities also tend to have great taste in accessories and unique outfit combos.</p><h2>Base Your Style on a Popular Movie</h2><p>Designers take their inspiration from the media all the time; there’s no reason you can’t do the same. Think about the way your favorite characters looked in popular movies. Most character wardrobes were carefully crafted to help further the story. Costume designers often pick colors or clothing items that they know will create a specific mood.</p><p>Movies are also a great place to notice trending hairstyles and accessories. When Katniss Everdeen wore a braid in the Hunger Games, braids were immensely popular for several years.</p><h2>Browse Fashion Tags on Social Media</h2><p>In the modern world, everyone can share their amazing fashion sense. Instagram and Twitter are both great places to scope hot new looks. Start with the #fashion tag. When you find an outfit that you like, see what other tags the original poster used. Follow those tags to find even more looks in the same style.</p><p>If you love a celebrity’s outfit, you should also see if people are talking about it on social media. You might find that other people have also tried to emulate that look, and you can learn from their failures and successes.</p><p>Fashion is an ever-evolving art form. Keep an eye on both recent fashion trends and historical fashion successes. With this many sources to draw your inspiration from, you’ll never run out of ideas for exciting new fashion statements.</p></div>

It’s not just about buying the season’s trendiest clothes. You have to consider what types of clothing make you look and feel your best. It is almost always preferable to wear something old and flattering than to wear something stylish that doesn’t show off your figure’s best features. Looking good is always in style. Wearing the latest designs with no regard for your own body is how one gets the dreaded “fashion victim” label.</p><h2>Find Inspiration</h2><p>The easiest way to narrow down your options is to mimic celebrities and influencers whose body types resemble yours. Choose three or four photos of those influencers featuring outfits that you can see yourself wearing. Try not to pick outfits that depict your “fantasy self”; be realistic about the types of clothes you would actually wear in your everyday life.</p><p>You might also want to consider how conservative your workplace is, as you wouldn’t want to splurge on a new wardrobe that you can only wear on weekends.</p><h2>Start Shopping</h2><p>After you’ve picked the looks you want to mimic, it’s time for the fun part: going shopping. If the idea of walking into a store and seeing a sea of options makes you anxious, browse online first. Some people enjoy spending hours perusing the racks and trying things on, but it’s okay if you don’t care for it. You can still have good style even if you’re not a stereotypical shopaholic.</p><p>If you’re taking your cues from online influencers, you should be able to easily find out where they shop. Start with those websites.</p><h2>Be Patient</h2><p>Don’t be frustrated if you don’t immediately find exactly what you’re looking for. A little-known component of good style is having the patience to hunt down the perfect pieces. You might spend hours picking through the deepest pages on a brand’s website and only find one garment that you like. That’s how you know that you’re being a smart shopper. Developing personal style is a creative venture that takes time and effort.</p><h2>Look Past Your Wardrobe</h2><p>In the meantime, there are other things you can do to lift your self-esteem. A new haircut can make you feel like a whole new person. A massage can relieve tension you might not realize you’re carrying. If you’re looking for a fast, long-lasting self-esteem boost, you may want to consider checking into a <a href="http://harmonyskin.com/">medical spa</a> for a facelift or similar surgery.</p><p>You also need to try not to be frustrated when things don’t fit or look right at first. Save your receipts, and don’t be afraid to return the items that you don’t like. Once you’ve learned to focus on the styles that flatter you the most, you’ll find that you enjoy shopping and experimenting with even bolder styles.</p></div>

<div><p>Normal people eat bananas while <a href="https://www.behance.net/martagrossi">Marta Grossi</a> sees this most common type of fruit as an unlimited source of inspiration and creativity which triggers and multiplies her imagination. When the talented banana graffiti girl meets <a href="http://www.iblues.it/en/home-page">iBlues</a>’ Italian elegance with an urban chic flair, the beautiful outcome was the launch of the show-stopping bright, fun print-filled crossover capsule collection of shirts, dresses and skirts - <a href="http://banananarules.com/2015/03/10/banana-a-porter-by-marta-grossi/">BANANA à PORTER</a> which was all about playfulness, bold and cheerful colours, and youthful femininity for fashion-conscious ladies to rock the summer sweet style. I could almost smell the rich fruitiness especially when I gazed into the banana graffiti prints on the yellow pieces featuring the original illustrations of pink flamingos.</p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491261,original{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491261,original{{/staticFileLink}}" width="717" alt="8843491261?profile=original" /></a><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491085,original{{/staticFileLink}}"><img width="750" class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491085,original{{/staticFileLink}}" alt="8843491085?profile=original" /></a><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491465,original{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491465,original{{/staticFileLink}}" width="717" alt="8843491465?profile=original" /></a><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491478,original{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8843491478,original{{/staticFileLink}}" width="688" alt="8843491478?profile=original" /></a></p><p><i>_____________________________</i><br /> Follow La Mode by GV Miao on:<br /> Blog: <a href="http://la-mode-by.gvmiao.com/">http://la-mode-by.gvmiao.com/</a><br /> Tumblr blog: <a href="http://lamodebygvmiao.tumblr.com/">http://lamodebygvmiao.tumblr.com/</a><br /> GV Miao fashion blog fb page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/gvmiaovickivictoirefashionistaz">https://www.facebook.com/gvmiaovickivictoirefashionistaz</a><br /> Instagram: <a href="http://instagram.com/vicki_victoire_gv_miao">http://instagram.com/vicki_victoire_gv_miao</a><br /> Pinterest: <a href="http://pinterest.com/gvmiaovictoire/">http://pinterest.com/gvmiaovictoire/</a><br /> Twitter: <a href="http://twitter.com/GV_Miao">http://twitter.com/GV_Miao</a><br /> YouTube: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/Vickigoders">http://www.youtube.com/user/Vickigoders</a><br /> Google+: <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/+GwenVikkeyMiaoVickiVictoireLaModebyGVMiao/posts">https://plus.google.com/u/0/+GwenVikkeyMiaoVickiVictoireLaModebyGVMiao/posts</a><br /> bloglovin’: <a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/3102018/la-mode-by-gv-miao">http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/3102018/la-mode-by-gv-miao</a><br /> Linkedin: <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/pub/vicki-victoire-gwen-vikkey-miao/23/427/817">http://www.linkedin.com/pub/vicki-victoire-gwen-vikkey-miao/23/427/817</a><br /> Fashiolista: <a href="http://www.fashiolista.com/style/gwenvikkeymiao/">http://www.fashiolista.com/style/gwenvikkeymiao/</a><br /> Chictopia: <a href="http://www.chictopia.com/GV_Miao">http://www.chictopia.com/GV_Miao</a><br /> La Mode by GV Miao Online Jewelry/Accessories Store: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LaModeByGVMiaoOnlineJewelryStore">https://www.facebook.com/LaModeByGVMiaoOnlineJewelryStore</a><br /> New York Asian Fashion Week Extravaganza 2014 (fashion show): <a href="https://www.facebook.com/newyorkasianfashionweekextravaganza">https://www.facebook.com/newyorkasianfashionweekextravaganza</a></p></div>

<div><p><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Winter, spring, summer, fall, which season do you think is the most suitable for a romantic wedding? In fact, you will have a wonderful wedding in whatever season as long as you have planned well. Here are some wedding inspirations for every time of the year.</span></p><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Spring Wedding</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Spring is a time of rebirth and renewal – a perfect time for the new adventure that a marriage brings. If you're considering a spring wedding, start off by thinking about your favorite parts of the season. Is it crocuses poking up through snow? Perhaps you'll want to have a wedding early in the season. If it's the emerging sunshine, choose bright colors and May weather.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear:both;text-align:center;"><a href="http://mt-share.qiniudn.com/share/2014/03/10/bdfc69f9b2630148192f2c6eeb413c64.jpg!650" style="margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;"><img src="http://mt-share.qiniudn.com/share/2014/03/10/bdfc69f9b2630148192f2c6eeb413c64.jpg!650" border="0" height="640" width="426" alt="bdfc69f9b2630148192f2c6eeb413c64.jpg!650" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Most wedding dresses seem made for a spring wedding. Wedding magazines are full of large skirts that may be too warm for the summer, and sleeveless tops that may be too cold for winter. Look for a versatile dress that can be paired with a wrap if you're chilly, yet is still light and airy. Many more brides these days are opting for a hint of color in their wedding dresses – be it a baby blue sash, an allover hint of pink, or light colorful embroidery. These touches will look perfect at a spring wedding.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Summer Wedding</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Summer is definitely wedding season. Roses are red, violets are blue, summer is the perfect time to say "I do!" The long days of summer are the perfect time to tie the knot. With the summer flowers blooming and the sun shining, your event is sure to be a hit. Accent tables with dainty butterfly and dragonfly place card holders or mini rose topiaries for a summery look.

This is perhaps most important for summer weddings. If you're marrying in a hot weather month, we recommend finding a gown that's lightweight and not super-constricting. Fortunately, there are lots of <b><a href="http://www.lunadress.co.uk/beach-wedding-dresses-c190/">summer-appropriate styles</a></b> to choose from, no matter what your style.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Fall Wedding</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">There’s something so warm and cozy about fall, which makes it a perfect time of year for your wedding. Fall is one of the most popular times to plan a wedding -- and for good reason! Autumn is a gorgeous time of year to have a wedding because of the natural beauty of the season. Early in the autumn, it’s still nice enough in many places to have an outdoor wedding. The changing leaves and crisp autumn air are amazing backdrops for wedding photos and for an open-air celebration. The bounty of end-of-summer harvest offers a spectacular array of food easily prepared vegan or Superhero. There are many holidays during the fall -- including Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and the Jewish high holidays -- but by doing your research you can help your guests avoid scheduling conflicts. Don't let these potential pitfalls scare you, though -- fall weddings are worth every bit of effort.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear:both;text-align:center;"><a href="http://mt-share.qiniudn.com/share/2013/10/23/69f2b52d395f4f9c940a7962cc9151dc.jpg!650" style="margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;"><img src="http://mt-share.qiniudn.com/share/2013/10/23/69f2b52d395f4f9c940a7962cc9151dc.jpg!650" border="0" height="640" width="426" alt="69f2b52d395f4f9c940a7962cc9151dc.jpg!650" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Fall isn’t just for us lowly street style fans – the season’s trends also apply to weddings, and gowns are interpreting autumn’s biggest styles, too. Picking out a wedding dress can set the tone for your whole wedding. The rest of the wedding planning can evolve around the style of dress you choose. Whatever style you choose, there are different ways to ensure that you make a choice that does not exploit humans, animals, or the environment. The most environmentally friendly choice you can make is to use a second-hand gown—either one that’s in your family or from a friend, or a second-hand or vintage gown you find in a shop.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Winter Wedding</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">When you think of a winter wedding, magic comes to mind.

<div><p>Not everyone has the eye of an interior designer and even fewer people have the discretionary budget to hire one to redo their entire house. And yet, some people who claim not to be creative or rich are able to organize their homes with elegance and style. Of course, their claim that they lack creativity my just be modesty, but they might be telling the truth. You actually don’t have to have training or a knack for picking out stylish things in order to make your home warm, inviting, and pleasant to be in. All you need is the motivation to make a change.<br /><br />If you’re tired of living with the same old boring decor, throw out your excuses and be willing to make a difference. That’s precisely what Trish and Bonnie, the masterminds behind blog sensation Uncommon Designs, did. Despite having no formal training in interior design (one has a Bachelor’s degree in Management, the other has one in Nursing) they have been able to beautify their lives and their homes simply by taking the time and energy to infuse their decor with their own personality and flair. And they came up with some tips for other homeowners who would like to do the same.<br /><br />1. Find what inspires you.<br /><br />If you aren’t sure what your style is, sit down and make a list of objects, patterns, textures, motifs, colors, etc. that inspire you. Do you love butterflies? The outdoors? Books? Fine dining? Keep a notepad nearby as you go about your daily routine and jot down those topics that most interest you. Or take a walk through a home furnishing store, a friend’s home, or even a greenhouse to get a feel for what appeals to you.<br /><br />2. Choose a new accessory.<br /><br />You don’t have to completely refurnish your living room to give it a different feel. Instead, pick out that one item that has been tempting you every time you visit Pottery Barn or Pier 1 Imports and either buy it (if you’re really throwing caution to the winds) or see if you can find an item like it that’s off brand. Perhaps you’ve fallen in love with a gold-framed mirror. Could you make it yourself for less than it costs to buy it new? Once you have your item, start looking around for matching accessories that might help tie it more concretely into your room.<br /><br />3. Keep furnishings neutral.<br /><br />When it comes time to replace your threadbare couch or squeaky recliner, resist the tempting floral patterns and plaids that you see at the furniture store. Stick with neutral colors. Trish explained, “I love to change out my rooms for seasons and holidays. A neutral background allows me to throw in whatever colors I am currently loving without disrupting the flow of my room.” Neutral goes with virtually any accent color you could pick, unlike those pretty, but non-neutral furnishings you might be tempted to buy.<br /><br />4. Don’t be afraid of change.<br /><br />Sometimes we resist changing color schemes or furniture layouts because we’ve become attached to how things are. Will it feel like “your” home when it doesn’t look the same? Trish encouraged homeowners not to resist change to stubbornly, saying, “Embrace change. You may decide your current style does not match your family’s lifestyle. . . . It is ok to let go, and change things up a bit at times.”<br /><br />Interior Decorating and Remodeling News Brought to You by BaseBoardRadiatorCover.com<br />Source: uncommondesignsonline.com/7-simple-tips-tricks-style-home/<br /><br /><br /></p></div>

<div><p>Cheongsams or qipaos (旗袍) are believed to have the most alluring body-hugging silhouette that highlights feminine curves in the best way ever. Today’s top international designers/brands such as <a href="http://viviennetam.com/">Vivienne Tam</a> and <a href="http://www.shiatzychen.com/">Shiatzy Chen</a> have seeked inspiration from these traditional Chinese dresses for setting the modern oriental trend to celebrate the inheritance of Chinese clothing aesthetics. To promote “<a href="http://www.hongkongweek-taiwan.hk/eng/p_cs.html">Hong Kong Week 2013@Taipei</a>,” <a href="http://www.itc.polyu.edu.hk/en/home/">Institute of Textiles & Clothing (the Hong Kong Polytechnic University)</a> and <a href="http://hk.history.museum/">the Hong Kong #Museum of #History</a> co-organized “Legacies & Innovations: Cheongsam Fashion Show” showcasing more than 40 contemporary cheongsams by <a href="http://www.itc.polyu.edu.hk/en/home/">ITC</a> fashion design staff, alumni and students and design staff at the fashion school at Taipei's <a href="http://140.136.240.107/english_fju/">Fu Jen Catholic University</a> and <a href="http://english.usc.edu.tw/">Shih Chien University</a> held at <a href="http://www.eslitecorp.com/EN/Index.aspx">Eslite Xinyi flagship bookstore</a> (誠品信義旗艦店 in November last year.<br /> <br /> Though missing from the show in Taipei, fashionistas in Hong Kong still had the chance to view the featured pieces up close and personal in an exhibition at the Fashion Gallery of <a href="http://www.polyu.edu.hk/cpa/polyu/index.php">PolyU,</a> Hong Kong taking place last month till the 8th of this month. Fashion scholars and design students from Taipei and Hong Kong incorporated modern fashion elements into traditional Chinese clothes, pushing creativity to the limit by experimenting with different fabrics and textures and bringing a touch of structuralism, rock n roll vibe and various Western designs to conventional cheongsam silhouettes to revive and revitalize the Chinese qipao culture in this unprecedented qipao extravaganza showing endless possibilities with signature Chinese dresses to the fashion industry nowadays at one go.</p><p><a

Power of Minimilasm in Fashion Photography

<div>There are many approaches that you can use in photography that focuses on clothing, but going with a Minimalist background is sometimes a wise choice. For <a href="http://elilhaam.blogspot.com/">fashion photography</a>, the goal is to draw the eye to the best qualities of a garment. A viewer sometimes can be distracted by an excessively elaborate backdrop on the picture. Excessive detail in the background can also be a problem when some feature of it might be unappealing to the viewers, which then makes the clothing less appealing by association. However, the potential value of a Minimalist background should never be underestimated and I was surprised to see how alive the details appeared allowing the clothes at the center of the picture to shine.<br /><br /><p style="text-align:left;"><img src="{{#staticFileLink}}8842830466,original{{/staticFileLink}}" alt="" /></p><br /><p style="text-align:center;"><img style="width:152px;height:201px;" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8842830483,original{{/staticFileLink}}" alt="" /></p></div>

<div>On Twitter, you never know who’s following or reading you. Twitter, responsible for some of the most important relationships in my life, leads me in new directions every week. This week, it led me to a woman named Rachel Cornell (<a href="http://www.pronagger.com/" target="_blank">ProNagger</a>). Rachel is a legally blind blogger, speaker and author. She tweets about challenging limitations and converting procrastination into action.Rachel and I share three common beliefs:<b>1. Don’t compare yourself to others.</b>Comparing yourself to others can make you feel inadequate or inferior. How do you pick the criteria for the people that you judge yourself against in your personal successes or business achievements? Is it realistic? The people that you compare yourself to are just like you – human. I firmly believe that every person is unique and there’s something that only they can do on this earth.So what is it that you can do that no one else can?<b>2. Notoriety don’t always equal success.</b>Success isn’t defined by money or fame, it’s defined by how you’ve lived your life. Have you’ve taken risks, dared to confront fear and seek the life you’ve dreamed of? Have you achieved it? Happy or content? Then you’re successful.If you had three wishes, what would they be? How can you make them come true?<b>3. Don’t edit yourself.</b>To many times people hold back. A person doesn’t say something for fear of being ridiculed or attempt something for fear of failing. Holding back an idea or strategy doesn’t help you. That idea could be what sets you apart from everyone else.How can you cease to edit yourself this week?
