Manscara & Guyliner at SuperDrug

01 August 2008 No Comments

Guyliner British Retailer Superdrug is stocking a new line of makeup called Taxi Man made specifically for men. The range includes a mascara called Manscara and an eyeliner called Guyliner.  The company also plans to launch a concealer  and lip balm later this year. I dont think this trend will catch on.I know rockers have been wearing guyliner for years but I really dont think this trend will catch on to the general public.

do you think Manscara  and Guyliner will become trendy?

Shutter Shades – HOT or NOT

29 July 2008 No Comments

Paris_hilton This trend started last year and now everyone  is wearing them. They were made popular by Kanye West in his Stronger Music Video and now even Paris Hilton and Ashley Simpson have been photographed wearing them.

They come in every colour of the rainbow and in clear, gold and silver varieties. They have a really cool retro 80's vibe to them. The most common design has no lenses and are mainly just for fashion. Infact, they even obstruct your vision because  of the plastic lines covering your eyes.  These glasses are definitely a HOT trend ( I must admit they do look cool) but they aren't all that functional.

So, Shutter Shades, the label responsible for the phenomena has gone back to the design room and solved this with the Shutter shades 2.0.  They have some elements of the shutter shades combined with traditional lenses, therefore you get the style of Shutter Shades with the functionality of regular shades. The Shutter Shades 2.0 are also available in a range of colors. The price is just 29.99 US or about £16.00. I actually expected them to cost more, so I think they are definitely worth the price. Below are some of the colours that the Shutter Shades 2.0 are available in. The White ones are my favourite. Shutter20_2 Shutter20a_2 Shutter20b_2

Shutter Shades 2.0 = HOT!!!!

Hot or Not Summer 2008

06 July 2008 No Comments

Playsuit_asos_miss_sixty_3 1. The Playsuit. The Playsuit has to be the  coolest style this season. Last year a few daring people wore them but ths year everyone is wearing them. If you haven't tried them yet, do it now, while the weather will still allow you to wear them.  The one to the left is by Miss Sixty and looks great.

2. CBB will never be in style. CBB or Chronic Builders Bum will never be in style. I hate to see people whter male or female with  pants exposing their butt cracks ( exposing your butt crack wll never be fashion). Just as bad  is wearing pants that are so baggy that your underwear shows. Help fight Chronic Builders Bum this Summer by wearing a belt.

3.Sparkle. Sparkle Sparkle!!!!! Metallics are very popular this year. 

4 Heels are back with a vengeance!!! Heels are great, They make your legs look longer and more toned. Platform heels are very popular at the moment. Dip and dye shoes are also very popular at the moment. Aldo has some great heels in the Dip and Dye style. Summer 2008 is definitely the season of heels but please stay away from glass heeled shoes. Glass heels look extremely tacky.

5. Gladiator sandals are great if you want an alternative to heels this year. They are fun, comfortable and a bit edgy. Once again ALDO is a great place to get a good pair of gladiator shoes. Gladiators were big last year and this year gladiatr shoes with fringes are the new buzz!
