Although it’s already an upcoming fashion trend for a while now, I can’t resist submitting the subject here.
The shoe accessory.
Are you tired of your pumps or boots or you just love to mix things, then you really have to look for one of these gems for your footwear.

Lanvin and Doo Ri’s are already well on its way by showing several designs on the catwalk.
Also jewelry designer Kelly Framel makes shoe accessories inspired by the Parisian fashion house. Pumps or short boots adorned with subtle golden chains, or even robust large chains with  silver charms completely dominate this summer.

You can do your own finishing touch, and keep being unique with the same pair of shoes.

Dear Fesjon readers,

This is me: Ashley, 22 years old from Zealand and now living for 4 years in Bloemendaal. Fashion is my passion and I would love to do styling.

That is the reason I’m studying fashion styling at the styling academic Artemis in Amsterdam. I want to explore all aspects of the fashion industry and want to share the things I come across, stand out and intrigue. I will hit the streets and search for new trends to write about.

Enjoy!

Ashley

The message that Cindy and Gaga want to spread is particularly about a sisterhood-feeling. Cindy finds it beautiful that lipstick is being used as a symbol for spreading words and breaking the Aids taboo by making this topic discussion-able in our society. By this campaign they hope to stimulate safe sex and make people aware of the effects of STD, HIV and Aids.

Lady Gaga doesn’t think that people are just as conscious about HIV and Aids in the 80s. “72% of the sexually active women in the Uk have never been tested on STD, HIV and Aids. That’s shocking! It’s cool to get yourself tested.”

Cindy Lauper says that if you love yourself, you should look out for yourself. “The Viva Glam lipstick will constantly remind us: spread the word, not the disease. Don’t be a knucklehead, take care of yourself!”

There are 2 new lipsticks coming out, Viva Glam Gaga (a fresh bright pink color) and Viva Glam Cindy (a coral red color) and they will be available from March 5th.

Urban Warrior

Designers have always been fascinated with the idea of the strong woman. She usually appears after seasons of ultra-femme runways, but fall 2010 saw her evolve out of the tough, downtown chic that has dominated for a while. She appreciates a finely tailored coat, who prefers minimal to more, and who definitely loves a little luxury.
But just because she’s working the severe side of sexy doesn’t mean she’s immune to the fluffy stuff.

Conservative Glamour

There’s no question that the recession has left an indelible mark on fashion. Its forced women to change their shopping habits and in turn forced designers to react. The emergence of luxury on the runways was approached from a smarter, leaner, savvier vantage. There were no overt, in-your-face riches, more a subtle return to quality and classic style, timeless cashmere car coats. Beautifully cut suits, dresses and evening wear that breaths sensuality instead of flaunting the goods.

Eccentric Ladylike

The stylish magpie she’s a perennial muse who, even in the most minimal of moments, pops up somewhere on the fashion radar. She likes mixing her patterns and pulling together disparate motifs and she’s certainly not afraid of colors lots of bold ones paired together in seemingly off combos that as a whole work wonderfully.

Great Outdoors

The message is from several runways where clear “Get out of the city”. Girls got tough not in a gritty, leather-and-chains kind of way but rather with a lumberjack-loving mien. Worker boots ruled Tory Burch.  Soften your saddle-bound gal with luscious furs and a strappy boot. Or explore ski-chic, and not just aprés.The great news here is that no matter what coast you live on, these looks translate.

Bohemian Rhapsody

Bohemian is back, thanks to the recession, we’re grownups now and like a finished look. These one have more uptown polish though, dressing up, flowy, flowery frocks with tony coats. All indulged in an artier take on boho with tons of froth, flou, frills, layers and pretty much anything that will flutter in a light breeze.
