Louboutin Slippers

Imagine ballet slippers that already come in high heels…impossible? Well, not for Christian Louboutin. The shoe designer created one that is on tiptoe position, and also has the red sole as part of the charm! Of course it’s not made for a ballerina to actually wear it, since it might not feel comfortable at all. They are a collaboration to benefit the English National Ballet. But what if they were wearable? Do you think would be a good idea to replace the old slippers ?

Wearable Fashion

Sometimes couture fashion straight off the runway can be a little over the top for your day to day activities. Luckily, this fashion week there have been so many great trends that we can wear straight off the cat walk that it is hard to choose a favorite. Starting off the great trends this summer is the trench dress, a twist of the classic trench coat and sheath dress by DKNY. Another fun grab is a hip A-line shape coat in a bright, cheeky color by Michael Kors. If you want to finish off the summer strong with some of these great trends call Amanda today.

Hollywood Fever

Prada’s tile print dresses are a hot item for this summer. They’ve become “best friends” with Holywood stars, appearing in both the red carpet and everyday activities. It’s possible to get the dress a more sophisticated look by adding some amazing heels, as Lea Seydoux and Jennifer Aniston did, or just create a cool/ simple look by wearing a pair of flats, as Jennifer Gardner.

What do you think?

Duchess Kate

As everyone knows, the royals were in United States for a visit. The Duchess Kate, as usual, looked very elegant during the events. She opted for classic styles with neutral colors, and among her favorites were Jenny Packham and Alexander McQueen. I just love how she dresses, so simple but at the same time so stylish!

Royal Wedding Beauty & Hats Oh MY!!!

Now I’m sure that just about everyone around the world watched the Royal Wedding live as it was taking place.  It was one of the epic moments of 2011.  I watched the weddings and was astonished at the amazing beauty that surrounded the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.  My personal favorite part about the wedding were the gorgeous and amazing hat designs that every female guest in attendance wore.  Each hat added great personality and of course amazing and extreme fashion to the celebration.  Most of the hats were worn by fashion hat designer extraordinaire Phillip Treacy.

 

 

Top Ten Female Wardrobe Tips

Although no women’s body is exactly the same and females come in all different shapes and sizes; there are still a few wardrobe tips that every female can follow in order to get the best use out of their wardrobe.  Also if you as a female follow these ten simple tips, you will in return become a much savvier shopper and learn how to best dress your body.

1. Opt for open necklines such as scoop neck or v-neck tops.  It opens the neckline and lets the upper body appear taller and slimmer.

2.Wearing a great bra that lifts and pushes up makes all clothing look 10x better.  Amanda recommends Le Mystere.

3. Wrap dresses by any brand are the most flattering dresses on any and every woman. The wrap on the dress creates a long sleek v shape across the entire body which makes the body appear taller and slimmer.

4. Do not put on heavy layers.  Although layering can be cool, casual, and trendy it is not for all body frames.  Layering appears to drag your body down, add weight, and make one appear shorter than what they are.

5. Bootcut jeans are and will always be the most flattering jeans on both women and men.  This is one of the only wardrobe tips that apply to both sexes and will always stand true even when fashion changes drastically. 

6. When wearing tops, the top should always fall right below the hip.  When a top is hitting anywhere else but below the hip it will break the body up in a dis-proportionate way that is extremely unflattering.

7. Dresses and skirts should always either fall right above the knee or exactly below the knee.  Dresses and skirts should not be any higher or lower than that unless it’s a maxi skirt/dress, or a mini skirt.

8. Wearing a thick fashion belt around the waist helps create a more defined waistline.

9. Wearing a straight clean pump will make the overall body appear much taller and slimmer as the shoe will draw the eyes up for a slimmer image.

10. Spanx are every women’s best friend next to diamonds! No matter what shape or size you are even if you are a size 0, Spanx smooth the entire body and look amazing under dresses especially dresses that do not have lining underneath.

We Still Love Serenity Spa!

Last weekend our fashion stylist Amanda Sanders went for another visit to Serenity Spalocated on the Upper East Side of NYC.  She again got human hair eyelash extensions put on and this time around she was more in love with the finished procedure than she was during her first visit to Serenity Spa.  The procedure is painless, fast, and the eyelash extensions look natural rather than having that extension look.  Take a look at our previous blog post on Serenity and read about Amanda’s first visit to the spa.

Time for Spring Cleaning!!

 To This!! 

Yes, it is that time of year again; SPRING CLEANING!! Everyone does the typical spring cleaning around their house to get all the “dust bunnies” away, but here at New York Image Consultant our spring cleaning approach is slightly different.  Our typical spring cleaning routine is cleaning out our closets.  How many pieces of clothing do you have in your closet right now? Did you go check? I’m sure there’s a few pieces in there that can be thrown away, and I’m sure there’s even more pieces hiding in the back, behind, and underneath stuff that you completely forgot about.  Lets face it that is not good! One of my favorite motto’s to live by is “clear out the old to make room for the new”.  So NYIC is proposing that all of you go and check out our website and the closet cleaninglink.  Now is the time to definitely focus on you and why not start with giving your closet a fresh cleaning and discovering those hidden treasures you forgot about.  Here’s the link and we look forward to working with you!   http://www.newyorkimageconsultant.com/new-york-style.html
