Fashion Trends Spring 2012
We are almost in the hug of spring 2012; and we all know that early at the end of 2011, fashion trends for spring 2012 are coming out. So, what are these fashion trends for women’s clothes? Now, let’s check them out.
Oranges and Tangerines
Just before New York Fashion Week kicked off, Pantone Institute shared its prediction for the most popular colors of spring 2012, and it was spot-on: The pick for spring’s numero uno shade, Tangerine Tango, was all over the runways. And if tangerine isn’t your citrus of choice, there are plenty more orange hues to choose from. Wear one color and look chic? How easy is that.
Cheerful Color-Blocking
Spring runways were more colorful than the crowd at a Lady Gaga concert. Bold, solid-color pieces—like a cardi and skirt, wrap dress or demure one-piece suit—make simple dressing look glam. Style tip: Stick to three colors max to avoid the girly, Rainbow Brite look.
Super Bold Prints
There are prints, and then there are PRINTS. All caps are necessary to describe the vibrant, swirling, styled-head-to-toe patterns that sashayed down the spring 2012 runways. While there’s plenty to choose from—oversize florals, mirrorlike geometric shapes, even parrot prints.
Pastel Shades
If wild, look-at-me hues aren’t your thing, worry not: New York Fashion Week’s most esteemed designers have got your back. Spring’s sweet sorbet shades and pastel hues give off a low-key, ladylike vibe.
Peplum skirts, shirts and dresses
Flirt without saying a word in this season’s peplum skirts, dresses and tops, defined by a short flared ruffle that sits at the natural waist. High heels and your steadiest eyeliner flick will seal the deal on your spring glam plan.
Anoraks
Spring 2012’s cool-girl anoraks—as seen at Tommy Hilfiger, Edun and Jason Wu—are a win-win: They fit in with spring’s sporty vibe and promise to make your rainy days look chic. What’s not to love?
Pink Shorts Suits
Sure, this trend might not have been automatically filed under “wearable,” but this leggy-yet-office-appropriate look major prop is versatile: Wear the blazer and shorts separately for a whole new set of cute outfits. Smart dressing, indeed.
Colorful CamoCamo usually feels heavy-duty, but spring’s versions are more ladylike thanks to soft, pretty pastels. How to pull it off in the urban jungle? Treat it like it goes with everything by styling it up with other patterns and colors and suddenly your friends will be calling on you to merchandise their closets and approve their spring splurges. Keep it stealth—they don’t have to know that your cool new camo did the heavy lifting.
Metallic BasicsGo-to wardrobe favorites—from wrap skirts and slim trousers to stacked heel loafers—turn into going-out gear when they come covered in shiny bronze or liquid emerald green. If you need to have a Footloose moment and steal the dance-floor spotlight, wear one of these.
We can see that color-blocking and metallics continue to be fashion trends; and also here come out many other trends. The marketplace will surely make those appear in a lot of different places.

Golden Globes 2012 came into our views, along with some fashion stunners decorated by some beautiful dresses, jewelries and high-heels. Let’s check the fashion stunners in Golden Globes 2012!
TILDA SWINTON
Tilda, you have quite simply left us speechless.
CHARLIZE THERON
The ‘Young Adult’ star, outfitted by Dior – for whom she is a spokesmodel – radiated Twenties glamour as she took to the carpet. From the delicate headband to the blush hue of her bow-trimmed gown, this is the dreamiest look of the night.
ANGELINA JOLIE
Trust Ange to steal the limelight from under everyone else’s red carpet, crystal-clad feet. The earth mother dazzled in a sculpted, oyster gown, perfectly punctuated with the most elegant flashes of red.
KATE BECKINSALE
You have to admire Beckinsale’s dedication to the cause: she has undoubtedly been preparing for this moment for weeks, and from her toned, caramel-coloured arms to the diamonds artfully co-ordinated to go with her gown, she’s nothing but an impeccable hit.
JESSICA ALBA
Let’s be honest, Jessica Alba could rock up in a onesie accessorised with a bumbag and still look the picture of perfection.
ROONEY MARA
Rooney has fast emerged as the red carpet’s stealth dresser: no frills, no fuss, no colour, just deadly stylish.
VIOLA DAVIS
‘The Help’ star gave so much more than we could have ever expected: a flash of leg, and buckets of red carpet assurance.
HEIDI KLUM
Klum got it so wrong last year, but this backless, figure-hugging number more than makes for it. Refreshing to see turquoises and not diamonds for a change, too.
And so on and on…

Valentine’s Day 2012 Style: Be Blair Waldorf
We all know that Blair Waldorf is a character played by Leighton Meester in Gossip Girl. Her lady style is sophisticated, elegant, modern, sexy and appreciated by many women or men. However, not all of us are like her who lives the Upper East Side; but we can inspired by her charming and attractive style. The following are some tips you may consider about.
Winter coats
Choose a coat in an unconventional shape and color if you want to resemble Blair. She often sports the school girl style and the middle coat is perfect for that.
Dresses
Blair’s dresses are colorful, fitted, short and feminine. She wears sexy dresses, but always leaves something to the imagination. Her style is characterized by the amount of detail in the clothing items, which these dresses also posses.
Cardigans
Cardigans have always been very ladylike. They’re good if you need to be a bit warmer, hide your arms or cover up your cleavage a little. All in all, cardigans are a great way to either dress up or dress down an outfit. If you’re going for Blair’s ultra feminine style, choose shorter cardigans with long or 3/4 sleeves with some detailing like on the picture.
Blouses
Blair’s silky, beautiful blouses are very different. They’re far from boring and full of details. Ruffles, bows, prints, unusual collars, buttons, belts and so on make them very Blair. Choose soft and feminine materials like silk and chiffon to get the feminine look.
Shoes
A pair of classical Mary Janes is a must have in your wardrobe if you want to achieve the Blair Waldorf style. These shoes have been around for many, many years and they never go out of style. As I said earlier, Blair is not afraid of color, so the color of the shoe is all up to your imagination.
Head bands
Blair is definitely not afraid of wearing headbands in all colors, shapes and sizes and they do make her outfits very girly and fantastic.
Well, having the style of Blair Waldorf does not have to spend a whole bunch of money. Just be inspired by her collocation tips!

Johnny Depp Style-Making Tips
As an excellent actor, Jonny Depp also is considered as a fashion icon for men by his fans or many others. He has a truly personal and original style. Of course, Johnny Depp doesn’t need to feel like the bad boy, bohemian image he portrays. That’s just him. He exudes effortless style from every pore on his body; and flying in the face of sleek, tailored lines, Johnny Depp’s typical attire is a statement but ironically still on trend.
The following are some tips about how to make the same style with Jonny Depp. See whether they can inspire you guys.
Tip one:
His clothes can sometimes be ill fitting, and at times a purist would argue ill judged. Depp’s character allows him to make every piece of clothing he wears look as if it was made for him. His casual attire communicates a relaxed nonchalance, and though this is easy when you have no monetary problems, a genial expression has never been amiss on the face of Depp – even when he was making his name in small-time Indie films.
Johnny Depp is a man who has enough confidence and panache to break conventional ‘style rules’, and thus can be seen clashing crosses and spots without his cheeks flushing redder than a the proverbial red cox. He prefers to tear apart the color wheel to make space for his larger than life character. This is because he knows he can break the rules of standard sartorial codes, and we know that too.
Tip two:
Accessories can contrast in color with the outfit, or dominate one arm and not the other. Accessories can be in the same texture as the clothes, or they can even conflict with them, such as leather and silk. However you choose to wear your outfit, it is because you have chosen to wear it in that way.
So as not to make this sound too philosophical, the impression we may get from Depp is that you don’t even have to have a reason for your outfit if you don’t feel like one. He is not very impressionable, and understands himself to such a degree that he doesn’t make a mistake picking out his clothes in the irrational early morning. To an extent, this is why we see such novel accessories from Mr. Depp. Though the colored lenses are particularly rare, sunglasses certainly are a suitable replacement – even in winter – that will set you apart from the crowd in a more conventionally stylish manner than normal.
From perusing many photos of Johnny Depp, despite the plethora of accessories he is seen wearing, he does not often conform to more modern accessories such as an electronic watch, or any neon colored bracelet; and in this way, an honest respect for timeless style is evident.
So, did you get any useful tips and prepare to create another you-style “Johnny Depp”?

7 Tips for Being Sexy
One important thing which makes women different from men is that women’s bodies have curls. That’s also why women are ordinarily sexier than men. Is being sexy difficult or not? Well, some think it is; others think it isn’t. Well, with the following 7 tips about how to be sexy, you may change the “is” into “was”. Let us check them out.
Work Magic with a Grand Exit
Sexy is all about surprises, so a deceptively simple dress from the front can be a showstopper in the back. Open backs, lace-up backs, great dress trains all make for dramatic effects. Even better: show off a peek of a tattoo like Angelina Jolie does.
Play Peekaboo
No need to bare your breasts, even with lace. Nude linings, camisoles and slips all keep you covered while the lace itself stays really suggestive. Even lace trims add a sexy, alluring look to everything from a simple jacket to a black skirt. Cutouts are another way to show slivers of sexy skin without baring it all.
Touchable Fabrics
Forget everything you’ve ever heard about hardcore leathers or sparkly sequins being heat-inducing. Cashmere, silky satin, buttery soft suedes are the real scene-stealers. Touchable fabrics not only invite another’s touch, they have the added bonus of feeling great against your skin so you feel pampered and sexy.
Metallic
Gold, silver, copper and pewter are especially luminous when you’re going for vavoom. Look for simple shapes (the story here is the fabric and color, not the line of the outfit) and tones that flatter your skin color. Pass on major jewelry and makeup to let the metallics shine. You can even use metallics in your makeup alone, by opting for shimmery eyeshadows or bronzers for a golden glow.
Unexpected wearing
It doesn’t have to be a huge statement like wearing a jacket backwards; subtle alterations pack the chicest punch. For example, take a basic man’s white shirt (slightly oversized), unbutton it, wrap it so that one side overlaps the over and tuck in.) Another way to look sexy is to take a cue from Scarlett Johansson and wear menswear. A tuxedo on a woman — either worn literally with a shirt and bowtie or with a feminine cami — is super sexy.
Red Lipstick
Pale lips may be trendy, but nothing does the job like red. Use lipliner for a perfect appearance, choose a creamy matte in a red that best suits your skin tone (blue-reds for darker skin tones; orangey hues for olive; true reds for blondes). Use a light hand for the rest of the face because the lips should take center stage. If you are over 40, beware harsh reds because they can look too stark on your mature skin.
Shoulder-Duster Earrings
Skip every other piece of jewelry, pull your hair back and make sure your makeup stays soft. This look goes great with bare shoulders and updos, too. Definitely an after-dark look. Long, bold earrings look gorgeous with short hair and updos.
So, are inspired by these tips now?

How to Do the Makeup Like Miranda Kerr
We all know that Miranda Kerr is a well-known Victoria’s Secret angel and married to Orlando Bloom. They are just like the prettiest couple ever. Whether Miranda Kerr is out shopping and running errands or going places with her baby on her arm, she always looks stunning, especially with the natural makeup. The following are some tips about how to do the makeup like her.
- In order to get Miranda’s beauty look, you’ll need to focus on getting healthy and glowing skin. If you’re having problems with your skin, there’s no need to worry, you’ll just have to find a great foundation, but the trick here is to find one that is the right shade for your skin. Many women make the mistake of buying a darker shade, thinking that it will make them look tanned – it won’t. It’ll look unnatural and cakey. Set your foundation with a sun powder, if you want to look darker and you’ll have a perfect tanned look.
- Remember to use a face primer under your foundation – it makes your skin silky soft and it will make your foundation last throughout the entire day. The pores will be dealt with, so you’ll have a perfect-looking skin, like Miranda. Many women don’t know that there is a product like a face primer, but it should be in any woman’s makeup bag, if she uses foundation.
- Put a little pinkish blush on your cheeks to get that healthy glow. The blush can be powdered or creamy – it’s up to you. Miranda’s seems to be a bit to the creamy side.
- The eyes have a pretty mix of grey and brown eyeshadows topped with a coat of black mascara. If you think this is too much for day, wear the look with just a little brown eyeshadow or save this look for a party. Remember, just like with the face, and put an eye primer on the eyelids to make the shadow stay on longer.
- Miranda’s eyebrows always look nice and natural, so make sure yours are plucked and brushed.
- Since the eyes are the focus of this look, the lips look subtle and pretty with just a little pink lipgloss, and end.
