Where can I find trendy and cheap online clothing?

Q. I am looking for trendy and cheap online clothing that is for juniors and misses. Preferably sites that offer a size chart and have more than size small. Shoe and accessories sites are welcome as well. I would also like to be able to purchase off season items as well.

A. Why not try amazon.com or ebay.com?
I think that you can find many great deals of clothing from Amazon.com. If you are too lazy, can try amazon discount finder ( http://www.tophotdeal.com ), which already collects all kinds of discount clothing for you.

Key fashion for spring/summer 11?

Q. What would you say is essential for this season.
What colour dresses for parties green?
Hair accesories?
Makeup?
What sort of shoes?
Shorts/skirts/dresses?
High waist trousers/ jeans?
Hairstyles?
What are you moat excited about this season and bulid a outfit at the bottom which you think best reptesnts this season and get 10 poits
And what will you be wearing

A. I did a complete guide on spring fashion trends on the runways:
http://heyyysunshine.blogspot.com/2011/02/spring-2011-runway-highlights-trends.html

Out of all of these trends my favorite would have to be the feminine look. I love ruffles, lace, florals, and volume! I think the pretties color of the season is Pantone's 2011 Color of the Year: Honeysuckle. Flatforms have made a huge comeback but I don't know if I can pull them off instead I'll just go with a trendy wedge or cute pointed flats. Fuller skirts, high-waisted shorts, and a sheath or shirt dresses pulled together with a cinch belt would be a cute look i might wear. Dainty flower hair accessories would be a nice touch in a tousled back messy bun. I hear that going darker, golden, or reddish is hot this season so I think I'm going to get golden highlights to lighten up my look! I'm not so sure with make up but I know that with nail polish hot colors are like an earthy color (essie st. tropez) and a tiffany box or robin's egg blue.

What are some sandal trends for spring/summer 2011?

Q. I remember when gladiator sandals were huge the past couple years for spring and summer and I got a couple of those. But are there any new trends? Colors, patterns? I just bought a pair of cognac double buckle strapped wedges from DSW

http://www.dsw.com/shoe/chinese+laundry+double+dare+wedge+sandal?prodId=217705&category=dsw11cat260004

Anyway please include any photos links to help me out. I've been crazy about shoes lately! lol And I just CANNOT wait until the weather warms up so I can wear sandals! :D

A. DSW is the best! High platforms are in this spring, as well as clog-style shoes. Not too sure about colors and patterns in particular, although bright colors are trendy right now. Nautical stripes/colors are pretty in too I think.

What is the best running shoe for me?

Q. I am a new at running and I have been training for a 5K in May. My dad recommended that I get real running shoes soon. I have done the research, but I can't find anything that helps. I know I have to decide what feels best for me, but I want to have an idea of what to look for when I get to the store. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

A. There is no real correct answer to that question as it ultimately is what feels right to you. I would highly recommend getting a quality pair of training shoes designed for distance running. Most runners in our program seem to prefer Asics or New Balance but there are several other quality companies to chose from. My best advice is to not cut corners, buy the best shoes you can afford. Stay away from cheap shoes or trendy ones. Your running success depends on your feet and they depend on the shoes. Many stores that specialize in sporting goods have runners working in the shoe departments that can help you and some really good places will actually test you for pronation problems.

Where do you buy trendy juniors clothing for tall, athletic girls?

Q. Height is 5'11", Shoe size is 11, Weight is 140-145, Thighs are strong & muscular (hard to find skinny jeans). Inseam is 35 inches. Tiny waist.

Where might a teen go for clothing with this build?

A. I visited Forever 21 for the first time this past weekend; at the location I went to, they had a large sale room organized by small, medium, and large sizes (I'm sure you can find large sizes around the store as well). The large sizes were not plus sizes per se, but were made for a taller, larger built girl. Their clothes are very cute and inexpensive; good luck shopping! <3

Who are these guys wearing skinny jeans and colorful shoes?

Q. Is the new style for young people to wear tight jeans and bright colored shoes? Is this pretty common in the city? I've just started to notice people dressing like that. Maybe is it a punk or new hippie thing or something? It seems like they are all vegetarians too.

A. If the clothing isn't DIY, then they're not punk. Most likely they're not punk. It's just another trend. A new trend. Nothing to make a big deal over. Vegetarians? Don't believe that. I've known many annoying vegetarian wannabes that do it to be cool. They eat gelatin. I doubt they're vegetarian if they eat gelatin. The skin, cartilage, and bones of an animal. Trendy people is all they are.

How should they look?

What shoes do I wear with them?

What type of shirts should I wear with them?

What color shirts should I wear with them?

What type of sweatshirts can I wear with them?

What shouldn't I wear with them?

A. How to wear khaki pants for teen guys?---khaki pants are a great choice dude---they go from casual to dressy and are durable and always look in style

What colors should I get?---stick to the basic tan color---no need to over think it

How should they look?---for a teenage guy a loose fit basic khaki is best---gives you the most versatile look and are easiest to wear

What shoes do I wear with them?--- the best looking shoe with khakis is going to be the basic Sperry Topsider---brown leather with the white soles--- NO SOCKS---never socks with Sperry's---but you can wear a loafer or a basic tennis shoe too

What type of shirts should I wear with them?----anything, really bro---throw on a basic tee or graphic tee---polo shirts? YOU BET!---a button down dress shirt always looks good, untucked and unbuttoned over a plain white tee or tucked in and dressed up---just about any sweater or pull on will work too

What color shirts should I wear with them?---again just about everything bro---the classic prep look is blue oxford, or navy or red polo---but anything works ---except tan---wearing a tan shirt with khakis makes you look like a zoo keeper

What type of sweatshirts can I wear with them?---any pull over sweat shirt or hoodie will look great---your school's-- (or the school you want to go to)-- hoodie is perfect with khakis and Sperrys

What shouldn't I wear with them?----stay away from anything super trendy---no club wear, no goth cr@p, no military stuff, and you will be fine

bottom line is khakis have been around forever and should be the basic go to pant for almost every guy---we all look good in them---they are very comfortable and easy to wear---and girls like the fact that you are not wearing jeans---it looks like you tried to dress up for them---have fun bro

How do i be preppy ( 20 characters)?

Q. thanks you guys i'm kinda trying to come out of the shy faze since my mother died and she always wanted me to be popular

A. Personally, I think the best style type is preppy because it is classic and never goes out of style. Here are some basic steps:

1. The attitude: Always present yourself in a nice and welcoming manner. Be polite and courteous with girls, boys, and teachers. Never be snobby and don't try too hard. Always talk! What I am saying is be social but never during class. Preppy people are never misbehaving people.
2. The clothes: Wear clean cut, classic clothes, but they do not have to be trendy. Places like Abercrombie and Hollister are not preppy, unless you buy the really simple items. Try J.Crew, Lacoste, etc. Wear skirts, khaki, polos, bermuda shorts and bright colors. The staples of the preppy style are oxford shirts, polo shirts, and sweaters/cardigans. anything simple and of a solid color will work! The Jackie Cardigan is also a good, classic choice. Also, try a cute blazer over a simple dress. Also, for jeans, don't have any rips in them. Some good colors for clothes include pastels in pink, blue, green, and yellow or neutrals such as off white and brown.
3. Accessories: Always wear accessories, but not too many. Try pearl jewelry such as pearl studs. Also wear ribbon belts in different colors.
4. Shoes: Clean white tennis shoes are cute, or leather or suede ballet flats. No sneakers or Uggs. If you want boots try leather or suede slouch boots or straight leg boots... classic!
5. Hair: Make sure your hair is always well cleaned and conditioned. Don't do the same thing every day, mix it up! Try ribbons in a ponytail, headbands, and pigtails.
6. Always keep clean: Brush your hair, take care of your teeth and nails, and smell nice. Also, for your nails, paint them clear, white, or light pink. Dark or bright nails are so tacky!
7. Do well in school: If you have the answer, raise your hand. But do not be a show off or brag about your grades.
8. Get involved in a preppy sport: Try lacrosse, cross country, track and fiel, horseback riding, volleyball, swimming, rowing or golf. ( I personally enjoy running!)
9. Most importantly.... HAVE CONFIDENCE!!! Focus on your inner beauty and never let anybody tell you who you should be. Also don't try and fit in, that will only make things worse. Ease into your preppy transition slowly, one piece of clothing at a time, or over a long vacation.

Original Question

I need ideas on how to dress like the 50s.?

Q. Its homecoming week and i need to dress like the 50s, any ideas?

A. I love these kind of questions.

First off, in the fifties, men were men and women were women. Assuming you're a girl, you're going to need a dress just slightly above the knee, maybe 1-2 inches above and NO SHORTER!
If its shorter than that, its not going to look fifties, it will look silly, if you can't find anything like that then a dress below the knees are fine.

Don't wear stockings or pantyhose, but if you feel uncomfortable showing your legs then its okay to wear them, just make sure they're natural colored, closest to your skin color.

Find a dress with a light pattern, like a light and soft colored pink or green would be great. If you can find a dress with a nice floral pattern on it, that's great! (Make sure the floral pattern isn't like too bright or eye catching though, for ideas on patterns just google 50s dresses)

At the Goodwill or Salvation Army, they always have old dresses from even 30 to 40 years ago. I see them all the time over here where I am. If you have any sort of vintage clothing shop in your area, check it out.

Try to find a dress that buttons down to the belly button with a "bib" collar. Usually dresses back then were short sleeved too.
Hair is easy, ever hear of pincurls? Or even rag curls? For an authentic 50s hairstyle look just look at these tutorials:
http://www.hairboutique.com/tips/tip6412.htm
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57l_AjspIq8
http://www.ehow.com/how_2084103_create-pin-curls.html

I pincurl my hair because I don't like using curling irons, and I can assure you pincurling comes out looking very retro if done correctly.
If you don't want to spend time putting pins in your hair over night then you can just wake up in the morning and curl your hair, but after curing it with the curling iron leave your curls in for 20 minutes to cool down and brush them out for the same "finger wave" effect. (Finger Wave is a retro look)

If you have a fringe (straight across bangs) then use a small round brush and brush the under side of your bangs for that Bettie Page look.

If you want to wear makeup, them you can never go wrong with a plumb lipstick, or the lightest to go would be a bright red. I recommend the plumb to be honest, it was popular back then according to my grandma :P

Try to stay away from cat eyes unless you're going for a rockabilly look.

For brown eyes, just wear a very light pink or brown eyeshadow and use a highlighter under the eyebrows, also make sure to fill in your brows.
Use pink blush for very fair skin, and a brownish blush for tanner skin.

Shoes are easy, you can never go wrong with a pair of mary janes! They're cheap and easier to find than Saddle Oxfords (But if you can find saddle oxford shoes for a cheap price then get them!)

In the fifties, you can wear the hair up or down. I noticed a lot of teens in the fifties wore a pony tail with a pretty ribbon in the back, so maybe you can do that if you want to wear your hair up. Also, make sure your hair is curled somewhat, girls in the fifties either had curls or not, cause curls were considered stylish and trendy.


I hope I helped you! I'm in love with vintage fashion! (:

what are the current trends in clothes shops?

Q. I have a job interview in a clothes shop and was wondering what current fashion trends are.

A. I don't follow women's fashion but I can provide the guys' trends for fall 2012 through summer 2013, or at least how they're predicted to be. This is according to major runway shows in Europe, so trends in American stores or unique shops will vary.

Some general trends: Slim pants/jeans (sometimes skinny), rolled up once or twice, JACKETS, hairstyles that are short on the sides/back and styled on top, accessories like watches and bracelets always make you look more stylish

Fall 2012 has some very light blues and oranges leftover from summer 2012 but they're only thrown in. Mainly, it's getting darker with blacks and grays, occasionally an obscure white or yellow dominated outfit. "A play on fabric" as Armani calls it is trendy, mixing different patterns and fabrics that you wouldn't normally match, as long as they go together in color. Outfits should stay simple and sleek though.

Winter 2012-13 is best described as "dark" and sometimes "tribal" with almost all black, brown and gray on jackets, pants and shoes/belts. Fabric play still revealant: For example, charcoal sweater with leather jacket throw-over.

Spring/summer 2013 should be sleek and include Mediterranean colors not only in just clothes but especially accessories. Like turquoise belts/shoes, bags and shirt accents. "Easter" colors is a good way to put it also. The base colors are blue and green.

Why do British women feel the need to wear preposterous hats to public functions?

Q. American women are far more elegant when they wear a hat. I am thinking of Jackie O who set the standard. And French women know the need for understatement and elegance in headwear. British women wear hats that make them look like a cross between Little Bo Peep and a botannical experiment. Don't they see what clowns they look like or am I missing something here?

A. maybe they wear impractical hats just as we have impractical shoes - infers status (to wear high maintenance, and disposable income on trendy frivolity.)

I just got a job, what type of clothes are acceptable?

Q. I just got a job with the census bureau and for training, they ask that you wear business casual attire. I'm 19 and never really had to dress any certain way at any other jobs so if someone could tell me what is considered business casual attire then that would be great!

Thanks for any help.

A. Business casual is crisp, neat, and should look appropriate even for a chance meeting with a CEO. It should not look like cocktail or party or picnic attire. Avoid tight or baggy clothing; business casual is classic rather than trendy.
Basics:
Khaki or dark pants, neatly pressed, and a pressed long-sleeved, buttoned solid shirt are safe for both men and women. Women can wear sweaters; cleavage is not business-appropriate (despite what you see in the media). Polo/golf shirts, unwrinkled, are an appropriate choice if you know the environment will be quite casual, outdoors or in a very hot location. This may not seem like terribly exciting attire, but you are not trying to stand out for your cutting edge look, but for your good judgment in a business environment.
Shoes / belt:
Wear a leather belt and leather shoes. Athletic shoes are inappropriate.
Cost / quality:
You are not expected to be able to afford the same clothing as a corporate CEO. However, do invest in quality that will look appropriate during your first two or three years on the job for a business casual environment or occasions.
Details:
Everything should be clean, well pressed, and not show wear. Even the nicest khakis after 100 washings may not be your best choice for a reception. Carefully inspect new clothes for tags, and all clothes for dangling threads, etc. (as with interview attire).
Use common sense.
If there are six inches of snow on the ground and/or you are rushing to get to an information session between classes and you left home 12 hours earlier, no one will expect you to show up looking ready for a photo shoot — they'll just be happy you made it. Just avoid wearing your worst gym clothes and jeans. If you show up at an event and realize you're not as well dressed as you should be, make a quick, pleasant apology and make a good impression with your interpersonal skills and intelligent questions.

Original Question

is there way to look like ur rich and beautiful without expensive stuff?

Q. i wear hollister and abercrombie

A. dress classic. [rivate school uniforms are perfect examples of this look. use them as inspiration for your daily wardrobe. cardigans, plaid, polo shirts, jumpers, skirts, slacks and shorts. also, for the "old money" look, more vintage style classics will work, like a british style 3-button suit, anything "tweed", etc. fabrics should be strictly organic: wool, nubby, relaxed. no polyester, nothing "shiny". shoes should be leather, understated, and conservative. don't overdo it; try to go for a relaxed look, like you just got back from a week at the family home in kennebunkport. well fitting clothing in relaxed muted colors and maybe a touch of pastel is very old money.

have good hygiene. make sure you always brush your teeth and take a shower. wash your hair and keep it tidy but understated. clean your nails and get manicures at inexpensive nail salons. short tips are really pretty but avoid long nails with bright colors or nail jewels.

keep your face neat and your body well groomed. men should have precise haircuts, and well shaven facial hair. women should have a "tasteful" cut, color and shine in their hair. clear skin, free of acne and well moisturized especially in women of a certain age. hair color should look natural and highlights and lowlights must be natural as if obtained on a visit to the beach house.

slow down your speech, and lower your voice volume. Don't be loud or draw attention to yourself. learn to play golf, tennis and sail, or to ride (horses), even to play polo (if you have the stomach for it). get familiar with english history. groom regularly, nails, body, face and hair. keep clothing neat in appearance (tuck in shirts, wear comfortable fitting not very loose clothing). you must think before you talk, because, as small as this may seem, some people blurt out things that make them seem as if they didn't, and it can hurt you and others.

change the forecast. for women, strapped sandals in winter are alright. for men, sweaters and khaki shorts with casual loafers are okay as long as it's not snowing. the old money crowd does love to layer, so sweaters, overcoats, and similar garb is handy for cooler conditions.

a wealthy woman's makeup is natural with neutral colors, except for red lipstick, the only color in her makeup. her nail polish is a pale white, pink or beige. perfect skin is a rich woman must. never overtan; natural skin color looks much better. no sunspots, so keep on sporting sunscreen, though everyone looks better with a healthy glow.

smell like money. men and women should wear a small amount of an expensive scent. (men- on inner wrist and underneath the jaw line, women- on inner wrist inner elbows and underneath jaw line or behind ears). do not put too much on!

never look at the tag while "shopping" in expensive stores. train yourself not to react to extremely high prices by educating yourself on the ridiculous pricing for designer goods. if you react and make a scene, the other shoppers in the store will think that they are better than/ above you.

watch TV or movies about those with a lot of money. read forbes, barron's, the wall street journal, the new yorker, and the economist.

don't try too hard; subtlety is key. looking like a newly rich person is never a good thing to those who have always had money.

an authentic designer bag or wallet is nice, but go for something a bit bland or obsolete. something that is the "latest fashion" is by definition a trend, which is anathema to the old money crowd. it must be well made and leather even if not designer, go for simplistic designs, such as the LL bean boat & tote or a classic black quilted chanel. nothing avante garde, and nothing that looks like the balenciaga lariat, or the chloe paddington. however, if you're impressing the nouveau riche, "trendy" is pretty much mandatory.

have at least one pair of really decent well made shoes. for men, some very conservative and understated oxfords or loafers. for women, a conservative pump, like the classic chanel pump would be a good choice.

one of the most important things is to try and act normal. people who are not rich, wish they were. people who are rich don't want anyone to know. wear things that are good quality, but do not advertise. if someone is truly wealthy, they will be able to tell. do not act as though you are above normal activities. act rich, walk and speak properly, but when you talk about the subject of yourself or your life, speak about yourself as though you are a normal person.

and remember...
-flashy does not mean wealth, only poor taste.
-speak properly; always mind your grammar.
-use excellent posture, whether you are sitting or standing.
-know your etiquette. read books on the proper use.

hope this helps

Are these boots still in?

Q. http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/women/boots/ankle-boots/79990747-swendsen/94

Cause I bought them for 100$ in Malaysia and I'm scared it won't be in for so long, means I wasted my money on something I wouldn't wear alot. Are they still in? When will they die? Are they nice? Any tips?

A. They're totally in.
Ankle boots are trendy this season. For the fashion shows i've seen for Spring Summer 2011 womanswear, a lot of designers are going lighter and colorful. Chanel did a platform sandal, that a lot of people weren't to fond over, but who knows it could be the new celine platforms.
I saw a lot of designers swapping out heels for flats.

Right now, these boots are great for fall/winter. You can wear it with mini skirts, a dress, jeggings, jeans, etc., but for spring, things are getting more softer and these boots seemed to be harsher.
So you can totally wear it this season.

I think the boots are pretty chic.

What can of pants can I wear to a wedding?

Q. I'm going to a wedding and as everyone know you have to dress fancy. I am not going to wear a dress! I am looking for fancy pants but I also want them to be a little rockish. I also want them not to cost much. Please help!. Put the store and type of pants!

A. I like your style! Since you want a look that's a little edgy yet still elegant, I would suggest going in one of two ways: 1) silk pants or 2) jumpsuit.

1) If you're super daring, I would suggest going for silk pants. Pair them with a grey top, a black blazer, strappy high heeled sandals and a silver necklace for evening and a light tank, a soft blazer, nude pumps and a gold necklace for day-time:

What sneakers/casual shoes are trendy right now for young women?

Q. Hi, I'm 20 and I'm looking for some sneakers or casual shoes that are somewhat like sneakers. I plan on wearing them a lot during the fall season. I want to a buy a few pairs. So my question is, what brand or style is hot right now for fall 2007? I know boots and other classy style are in but I'm looking for somewhat comfortable casual sneakers. I hope sneakers is the right word for my question. My definition of a sneaker in this case is a shoe that resembles workout/sports attire but can be worn outside the gym. If any girls out there have some advice, please feel free to comment. :)

A. From my point of view,adidas superstar are ageless...like they are cool every year,every season....
Sth like this,a merge between ballet and sports shoes are really nice and casual http://www.shoes.com/product.asp?p=5031266&variant_id=EC1020958 you could try finding some a bit more colourful

If someone gave you $500 to add to your wardrobe,what would you buy and where?

Q. I am a crossdresser and want to spend upto $500 in a combination of ladies clothing, shoes, purse b/c right now I have two dresses, pair of jeans and a skort. I am 22 and want to buy from a store that is trendy for young women.

I live out in the northeast. My question is what is a good store to buy from and any suggestions on what I should buy, b/c I dont know where to begin shopping.

A. well, here's how i'd split the money up:

$100 @ forever 21 to the basics and cute tops , they sell bags and shoes too..(if u have some left, leave it for the "splurge fund")

$100 @ the nearest aldo or bakers, good deals...

$100 @ banana republic
$150 @ stores like A&f, American Eagle, Hollister co.... etc.. to get other cute stuff

$50 to your "splurge fund" and the other left over money to buy like a Juicy couture purse, bebe, banana rebuplic.. etc.. put the splurge fund into something u like and will love. like a purse, a pair of boots, shoes.. heck u can even justt spend it all at sephora!!! but choose wisely of what you'll do with the splurge $$... i usually do my shopping this way too... but at the end of some trips, i make up my mind to just get more clothes witht hte $$ and not to spend it on a splurge item.. so yea hope i helped!

What's a good place to shop for cute, inexpensive young women's clothes in Los Angeles?

Q. I don't like clothes that are overly trendy, but I want to find stuff that's youthful, casual and relatively comfortable without spending too much money. Any suggestions?

A. forever 21, go to the beverly center to the top floor or the grove or santa monica both have one (www.forever21.com). also wet seal has some cheap clothing thats pretty cute (www.wetseal.com). You can try Ross. You can also try Goodwill, they have trendy clothes some even still have the tags on it-the best goodwill i've seen so far is the one on santa monica and stoner ave. Also, Westwood has some clothing stores that are cheap-on westwood blvd across from Bank of America (i forget the names of the store), theres also an excellent bag store right there too and from my experience the price on the tags can be lowered if you act like its too expensive but you really like it, the lady is nice about that. For shoes, i go to Off Broadway on sunset and orange across from In&out-they have a huge selection for discounted prices.

Guys, where are the best places to buy inexpensive sweaters (winter clothing) in Paris, France?

Q. Guys I need your help to find the best clothing stores in Paris where I can buy good quality winter clothing and at the same time not so expensive? I need coat, sweaters and boots...
Going to France for 5 month, and I have to take some summer and winter clothing, but my luggage supposed to be max 22kg/50pounds (obviously not enough for me.) :( So the only option to shop there.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

A. If you're coming from the USA, an extra lugagge is charged $100 ..... Lots cheaper than buying a coat, boots etc.
http://www.aa.com/i18n/utility/041208_CheckBagFee.jsp?anchorLocation=homePage.do&url=aad-marriott-hotel-offer.xml&_locale=en_US&repositoryName=PromotionContentRepository&repositoryId=16630281&reportedTitle=Changes+To+Bag+Charges+To+And+From+Europe&reportedPos=1

A good quality coat costs over 800€, unless you buy during the sales. If you absolutely want to buy a coat, boots and clothes in Paris, I suggest going to an outlet, La Vallée Village is at the outskirts of Paris, sells many brands and there's a second shopping centre at the same place, which is not an outlet but sells inexpensive brands and it's quite big.
http://www.lavalleevillage.com/en/brands/women

There's a cheaper outlet, the cheapest though sale some good brands, it's not in Paris, it's in Troyes city, you could also find nice clothes there though for the shoes better go to La Vallée Village.
http://www.mcarthurglen.com/fr/mcarthurglen-troyes/fr/

In La Défense, just outside Paris, tube station La Défense Grande Arche, line 1 or RER A, theres Les 4 Temps shopping centre, it mostly sells inexpensive brands.
http://www.les4temps.com/W/do/centre/categorie-mode-femmes

Zara is an Spanish chain of fashion stores, trendy and unexpensive, very popular in Paris.
http://www.zara.com/fr/fr/nouvelle-collection/femme/vestes-c269184.html

Concerning the sweaters, I reccommend buying cashmere ones at Monoprix supermarkets, good quality, quite warm (cashmere is the warmest wool), they cost just above 100€. I often buy these sweaters and I combine with coats from Armani, Guy Laroche or Max Mara.

Since you'll spend less than 6 months in France, you can benefit from the vat refund, I think it's 12% off. http://www.douane.gouv.fr/page.asp?id=49
Mc Arthur Glen outlet and 2 department stores : Printemps and Galeries Lafayette give a 10% reduction card to tourists, simply ask for one at the welcome desk.

Are gladiator sandals still "in" for 2011?

Q. What do you think? Also, what type of bottoms look good with them?

go take a look at your local DSW or any shoe store and you can find cute ones.

Key fashion for spring/summer 11?

Q. What would you say is essential for this season.
What colour dresses for parties green?
Hair accesories?
Makeup?
What sort of shoes?
Shorts/skirts/dresses?
High waist trousers/ jeans?
Hairstyles?
What are you moat excited about this season and bulid a outfit at the bottom which you think best reptesnts this season and get 10 poits
And what will you be wearing

A. I did a complete guide on spring fashion trends on the runways:
http://heyyysunshine.blogspot.com/2011/02/spring-2011-runway-highlights-trends.html

Out of all of these trends my favorite would have to be the feminine look. I love ruffles, lace, florals, and volume! I think the pretties color of the season is Pantone's 2011 Color of the Year: Honeysuckle. Flatforms have made a huge comeback but I don't know if I can pull them off instead I'll just go with a trendy wedge or cute pointed flats. Fuller skirts, high-waisted shorts, and a sheath or shirt dresses pulled together with a cinch belt would be a cute look i might wear. Dainty flower hair accessories would be a nice touch in a tousled back messy bun. I hear that going darker, golden, or reddish is hot this season so I think I'm going to get golden highlights to lighten up my look! I'm not so sure with make up but I know that with nail polish hot colors are like an earthy color (essie st. tropez) and a tiffany box or robin's egg blue.

A. YOU DIDN'T SAY WHAT SIZE AND IT'S NOT NECESSARY FOR ME TO KNOW. GO ONLINE AND TRY MASON SHOES, MORDSTROM'S, CLOUD CLIMBERS, LANE BRYANT AND FOR DISCOUNT SHOES AND BOOTS TRY JESSICA LONDON. EACH COMPANY LISTED HAS CATALOGS ONLINE AND IN PAPER. THE SIZES RANGE FROM NARROW TO EXTRA WIDE AND THEY HAVE YOUNG UP TO DATE SELECTIONS FOR THE MOST PART. THERE ARE SOME SPECIALTY SHOE STORES OUT HERE TOO. JUST BE PATIENT WITH YOURSELF AND SURF THE NET. TRY "LARGE SIZE SHOES FOR WOMEN" FOR INITIAL WEB SEARCH AND TAKE IT FROM THERE.

What style of shoes to wear with skinny jeans when I have big feet?

Q. I love wearing pointy toed shoes for work which is fine as I wear corporate pants and my feet don't look as massive when I wear them like that but I like wearing skinny jeans too, what style of shoes would look okay when I have big feet with the skinny jeans? Not thongs/flip flops though..

A. Flats will make your feet look longer, so they aren't the best choice. Apply the same concept that you use with dress pants to your casual pants: A higher heel will visually shorten the foot. Wedge heels are big this spring and summer and cool canvas and fabric wedges come in a rainbow of colors and prints. You can get them from ultra high four inches to more casual lower heeled versions. Here are a couple of options that will work: http://www.aldoshoes.com/ca-eng/women/sandals/wedges/95056030-glynis/37 is a nice lower heeled wedge. http://www.aldoshoes.com/ca-eng/women/sandals/wedges/93976140-stralsund/46 these are a bit dressier and will also work with summer skirts and sun dresses. http://www.aldoshoes.com/ca-eng/women/sandals/wedges/93991500-celenia/32 a basic canvas wedge like this can go with almost everything. http://www.callitspring.com/ca-eng/women/sandals/wedges/93522480-stolarik/53 this is a sky high floral wedge that's very trendy and this canvas one: http://www.callitspring.com/ca-eng/women/sandals/wedges/94812367-marceli/17 has a very different shape to the heel part of the wedge. There's lots of wedges in stores, all you need to do is find the ones you like the best.

what are the trendy shoe styles this year?

Q. I'm starting a business selling shoes but I need to know which are the most trendy styles for women this year. I don't want to buy a bunch of shoes that will not sell. I know that really high heels are not so in, but what about wedges or slip-ons? Please let me know your suggestions,

Thanks!

A. Well for teens, like myself you should try these:

* Flats - everyone loves them even adults.

* Converse or Vans. They are very in.

* my personal favorite shoes are harajuki, it's hard to spell. But they are proably the most expensive sneakers out there. The style of them is japanese harajuki obviously and they have a lot of high top and bright colors.

But the MUST haves are pretty much flats and vans. Guys also wear vans.

What shoes to wear in warm weather?

Q. It's starting to get warm here and I'm sick of wearing tennis shoes. I'm a 15 year old dude. Idk what to wear... Flip Flops, Boat Shoes, what else? I have women's target moccasins that I got for a Christmas gift and even tho they were women's and I looked like I was gay they were super comfy so I wore them like everyday in the winter to school and everything but they would look dumb with shorts

A. Flip flops are currently trendy. Flip flops have an association with "surfer dudes." Girls like guys in flip flops, because of that "surfer dude" look. You know, "surfer dudes" have a carefree personality, and girls are attracted to that.

If you want a more sophisticated look, you can wear boat shoes, without socks.

Other than that, you can go barefeet.

Original Question

is there way to look like ur rich and beautiful without expensive stuff?

Q. i wear hollister and abercrombie

A. dress classic. [rivate school uniforms are perfect examples of this look. use them as inspiration for your daily wardrobe. cardigans, plaid, polo shirts, jumpers, skirts, slacks and shorts. also, for the "old money" look, more vintage style classics will work, like a british style 3-button suit, anything "tweed", etc. fabrics should be strictly organic: wool, nubby, relaxed. no polyester, nothing "shiny". shoes should be leather, understated, and conservative. don't overdo it; try to go for a relaxed look, like you just got back from a week at the family home in kennebunkport. well fitting clothing in relaxed muted colors and maybe a touch of pastel is very old money.

have good hygiene. make sure you always brush your teeth and take a shower. wash your hair and keep it tidy but understated. clean your nails and get manicures at inexpensive nail salons. short tips are really pretty but avoid long nails with bright colors or nail jewels.

keep your face neat and your body well groomed. men should have precise haircuts, and well shaven facial hair. women should have a "tasteful" cut, color and shine in their hair. clear skin, free of acne and well moisturized especially in women of a certain age. hair color should look natural and highlights and lowlights must be natural as if obtained on a visit to the beach house.

slow down your speech, and lower your voice volume. Don't be loud or draw attention to yourself. learn to play golf, tennis and sail, or to ride (horses), even to play polo (if you have the stomach for it). get familiar with english history. groom regularly, nails, body, face and hair. keep clothing neat in appearance (tuck in shirts, wear comfortable fitting not very loose clothing). you must think before you talk, because, as small as this may seem, some people blurt out things that make them seem as if they didn't, and it can hurt you and others.

change the forecast. for women, strapped sandals in winter are alright. for men, sweaters and khaki shorts with casual loafers are okay as long as it's not snowing. the old money crowd does love to layer, so sweaters, overcoats, and similar garb is handy for cooler conditions.

a wealthy woman's makeup is natural with neutral colors, except for red lipstick, the only color in her makeup. her nail polish is a pale white, pink or beige. perfect skin is a rich woman must. never overtan; natural skin color looks much better. no sunspots, so keep on sporting sunscreen, though everyone looks better with a healthy glow.

smell like money. men and women should wear a small amount of an expensive scent. (men- on inner wrist and underneath the jaw line, women- on inner wrist inner elbows and underneath jaw line or behind ears). do not put too much on!

never look at the tag while "shopping" in expensive stores. train yourself not to react to extremely high prices by educating yourself on the ridiculous pricing for designer goods. if you react and make a scene, the other shoppers in the store will think that they are better than/ above you.

watch TV or movies about those with a lot of money. read forbes, barron's, the wall street journal, the new yorker, and the economist.

don't try too hard; subtlety is key. looking like a newly rich person is never a good thing to those who have always had money.

an authentic designer bag or wallet is nice, but go for something a bit bland or obsolete. something that is the "latest fashion" is by definition a trend, which is anathema to the old money crowd. it must be well made and leather even if not designer, go for simplistic designs, such as the LL bean boat & tote or a classic black quilted chanel. nothing avante garde, and nothing that looks like the balenciaga lariat, or the chloe paddington. however, if you're impressing the nouveau riche, "trendy" is pretty much mandatory.

have at least one pair of really decent well made shoes. for men, some very conservative and understated oxfords or loafers. for women, a conservative pump, like the classic chanel pump would be a good choice.

one of the most important things is to try and act normal. people who are not rich, wish they were. people who are rich don't want anyone to know. wear things that are good quality, but do not advertise. if someone is truly wealthy, they will be able to tell. do not act as though you are above normal activities. act rich, walk and speak properly, but when you talk about the subject of yourself or your life, speak about yourself as though you are a normal person.

and remember...
-flashy does not mean wealth, only poor taste.
-speak properly; always mind your grammar.
-use excellent posture, whether you are sitting or standing.
-know your etiquette. read books on the proper use.

hope this helps

Where can I find fashionable plus size shoes?

Q. Does anyone know where I can buy either in a store or online trendy plus size shoes like for a size 12 womans foot? Every website I find has real ugly and outdated shoes. HELPP!
anddd... I'm not a monster, I'm just really tall at 6'1 so its hard for me to find tall lengths and bigger shoes =(

A. I believe Payless goes up to a 13. Nordstrom is always a good bet - they started out as a hard to find shoe specialist, way back when, and have kept that aspect of their business up even after re-focusing to fashion.

There are quite a few more listed in our shoe directory, that notes sizes (and widths) at:
