I am a complete bag-a-holic. You’ll find my wardrobe full of a variety of handbags. Wherever I go, I always keep checking out for handbags. I went to a party recently and saw my friend sporting an absolutely cool handbag. And when I asked her about it, she told me that it was an Elliot Lucca handbag that she had bought from Angelhandbags.com. So I decided to check out the collection of Elliot Lucca handbags available at Angelhandbags.com. I was so impressed with the collection of Elliot Lucca handbags available here that I ended up buying more than what I had actually planned for.

I recommend Elliot Lucca handbags to anyone looking for bags that look trendy yet sophisticated. These handbags made of luxurious leather look absolutely gorgeous. You can shop for them at unbelievable prices too at Angelhandbags.com.

If you want to turn heads wherever you go, then try the Elliot Lucca Napoli Drawstring Tote. The Bohemian style gives it a cool, casual look. You can pick this Elliot Lucca tote in glossy pyrite or rich black, and make your ensemble look spectacular. At Angelhandbags.com you’ll find many other fun and flirty drawstring bags, such as the Elliot Lucca Venezia Drawstring and the Elliot Lucca Padova Drawstring.

If you’re someone who likes to keep the outfit simple but jazz it up with gorgeous handbags, then the Elliott Lucca Barcelona Satchel is the one for you. This satchel looks ultra cool with a clam-shaped base and braided handle with gold accents. I picked the cream version of this bag and you’ll not believe the compliments I got for it. But if you feel that this color is too light for you, you can opt for this Elliot Lucca satchel in other colors, such as portobello or black.

I have bought several other fabulous Elliot Lucca handbags from Angelhandbags.com and added glitz to my wardrobe. I hope you do too.

New shoes, new shoes,
Red and pink and blue shoes.
Tell me, what would you choose,
If they’d let us buy?

Bright shoes, white shoes,
Dandy-dance-by-night shoes,
Perhaps-a-little-tight shoes,
Like some? So would I.

I will never forget this poem by Frida Wolfe because I love shoes. I love them in all shapes and colors, so I thought I would share some of the styles that I always keep in my closet.

Perennial Pumps – Open toed, closed, pointed or triangular pumps are an essential in your closet. Their versatility makes them apt for any occasion: business meetings, informal dinners, cocktail parties, or fun nights out. Try these black pumps for a sophisticated, corporate look. The oomph factor in these metallic silver slingback pumps will have heads turning. Neutral shades like cream and beige will come in handy when you have nothing that matches your pretty dress. Metallic colored T-strap pumps with embellishments will dress up any outfit.

Funky Flats – Durability, reliability, functionality, and flats go hand in hand. Flip flops are the best for lazing around at home or hitting the beach. Shiny, floral, striped, or eco-friendly - this simple style comes in tons of designs and provides the ultimate in comfort.

Flats are also chic and gel perfectly with cropped pants, jeans, skirts and shorts.

Big Boots – Flaunt your tight fitted jeans or mini skirts with boots. 

Sexy Stilettos – They led Cinderella to her prince. They brought about a footwear renaissance with their elegance and sensuality. Yes, I am talking about the stiletto. They accentuate your height and add sexy style to any look. Every girl should have several pairs in her closet.

Sassy Sneakers – Add a fresh twist to your collection of casual footwear with a pair of simple sneakers. Whether you are traveling, hiking or playing sports, you can rely on them every single day.

When you choose a dress, don’t choose one just because it looks nice. Select a dress that best suits your body type.

• If you’re pear shaped (generous hips and thighs), choose dresses that are not too tight at the bottom. You should go for dresses with eye-catching details on the upper body of the dress and keep those pleats and gathers at the bottom to a minimum.

• For curvy women, I would suggest clothes that flatter your shape instead of hide it. After all, if you’ve got it, flaunt it. Get clothes that fit you perfectly. Not too tight nor too loose; let it be just right. The help of a tailor can go a long way for curvy women. It might be a little more expensive and time-consuming, but the results make every penny worth it.

• Flabby arms and wide shoulders? Don’t worry. To hide those problem areas, wear a jacket or a dress with long sleeves. Make sure the sleeves are not skin tight. If you try to use a shawl to hide your arms, it will make you look heavier on top. Don’t wear sleeves that are too big or fluffy either. They will make your shoulders look wider.

• Women who are petite can wear dresses with vertical stripes to create the illusion of height. If you have lean legs, knee length dresses or dresses slightly above the knee are the most flattering. Avoid horizontal stripes, wide belts and dresses that are calf length if you are petite. They will emphasize your short stature.

All these tips plus the right attitude will make it easy for you too look good every time you step out the door, no matter which body type you have.

Who doesn’t like to sit back and relax while their feet are being pampered? Not only will you feel relaxed, you’ll no longer be hiding your feet in your boots but showing them off in stylish stilettos.

No doubt your feet will look great after a foot care pedicure, but more importantly, there are so many health benefits associated with a pedicure. Of all the parts of the body, your feet endure quite a lot. Long hours of standing, discomfort of wearing tiny airless shoes, shoe bites, and the effect of all those harsh chemicals that you apply when you have corn, wart, or callous. You might also have to contend with puffy sore feet and legs due to several factors like daily over use, PMS, pregnancy, post-flight fatigue, and long training runs. The list is endless.

The best way to treat your tired legs is to go in for a pedicure. The term pedicure comes from Latin words ‘pedis’ and ‘cura,’ which mean foot and care respectively. Foot reflexology used during a foot massage does wonders for you. It improves the blood circulation and also loosens the muscles in your foot and legs. Your whole body along with your feet will feel relaxed with the stimulated blood flow to your feet and legs. That is why a pedicure or a foot massage is a must not just for healthy feet but for a healthy body too.

Nail care is also an important aspect of a pedicure. Nails are cut, clipped, and cleaned so that they don’t grow inwards and cause infection. The pedicurist then removes the dead skin cells to prevent bunions and corns. It also lets new skin cells to emerge and make your feet soft and smooth.

The problem with getting a pedicure at a salon is that you might get nasty infections through unsanitized salon tools. The best way to deal with this is to have a pedicure kit of your own. SaniManiPedi has a pedicure kit to keep your feet safe. Get a pedicure and a foot massage today for gorgeous feet and step out feeling all rejuvenated.

So it’s that time of the year when prom night is around the corner. It is a magical time when girls get to flaunt their dresses. And it also happens to the perfect occasion for guys to show that that they too can dress smart in something other than baggy jeans. So here are some fashion tips that you can juggle around in your head while trying to decide upon a perfect prom dress or tuxedo.

Prom Dresses For Girls:

An unforgettable night starts with an unforgettable prom dress. There are numerous great dresses out there. Floor-length or short-hemmed dresses. Dresses with halter necks, sweetheart necklines, and scoop necks. Chic strapless, backless or one shoulder dresses. Classic Vintage gowns or trendy celebrity-inspired dresses. Flowy satin or layers of tulle. With so many options to choose from, you just have to plan a little in advance to select the perfect dress. When prom night finally does arrive, get ready to have fun and dance through the night. And most importantly remember that whatever you are wearing, you look fabulous.

Prom Dresses For Boys:

Prom is usually the first opportunity for a guy’s first tux. You can buy a prom suit if you plan to use it for other occasions. Otherwise renting one would be a wise choice, economically that is. Stick to a sleek and well cut suit and you can never go wrong. Don’t try to experiment with colors as you are best off in a classic black suit and leave all the pastels and bright hues to the girls. A prom suit or tuxedo usually encompasses a jacket, trousers, a bow tie, and a cummerbund. You can also choose to wear a necktie instead of a bow tie. Throw in a pair of black dress loafers and you’ll be all set.

With Memorial Day behind us, summer is officially here! So get these 5 fashion essentials and spend your days of sweet freedom in style!

1. Sexy Swimwear

A fabulous swimsuit is the quintessential summer must-have. I love two pieces with a little extra coverage, like a halter top paired with a swim skirt. However, if you’ve got it, flaunt it! Because we all know nothing is as sexy as the classic string bikini.

2. Little White Dress

That’s right. The LBD has been replaced by the little white dress this summer. It’s light and airy and looks great both day and night. Maxi and off the shoulder dresses are really a hit this season, and you’ll find plenty of them in white from top designers and brands.

3. Hot Headbands

I love this trend (and if you are a Gossip Girl fan like me, you probably do too). I totally give credit to the show for bringing back this fabulous accessory. Get a few like Blair Waldorf’s with eye-catching details (think rosettes and big bows). Many of the headbands you see Leighton Meester wearing on the show are designed by Stacey Lapidus.

4. Gladiator Sandals

Everywhere you look, you’ll see gladiator sandals this summer. Get them in metallic colors if you want to dress them up.

5. Jazzy Jumpsuits

They are back and better than ever! They first popped up on the runway and have now hit stores near you. So don’t be afraid of this one piece wonder.

So the date has finally been set for your big day and now you have a thousand and one things to do, from choosing caterers and flower arrangements to picking out gowns and rings. The most important part is obviously picking out a gorgeous wedding gown. (Hopefully with a little help from us!) Once you have that covered, you can move on to finalizing your bridesmaids’ dresses. Face it, these ladies are going to be your pillar of support during all those nerve racking preparations leading up to the wedding, as well as the actual ceremony. From helping you plan a bridal shower to organizing your bachelorette party, your bridesmaids will be assisting you in so many ways. So buying them a perfect bridesmaid dress (especially something that they can use again), would be a nice gesture to show you appreciation.

Some helpful tips:
•  Choose a simple elegant dress that will look great as well as stay within your budget.
•  Keep in mind that it should suit all body types. And do make sure that you all your bridesmaids along for a trial fitting.
•  If you are planning a themed wedding, like a beach wedding or a Victorian wedding, make sure that you dresses stick to the theme.
•  If you aren’t having a themed wedding, it’s always nice if the bridesmaid dresses complement the wedding’s color scheme.

Here are some wonderful ideas to help you pick a perfect bridesmaid dress.

Want your fall wardrobe to be as hot as all the great looks shown at the New York Fashion Week? Then stick to tons of color, plenty of texture, and sleek silhouettes.

Go Skinny

If you haven’t done the skinny pants thing, don’t put it off any longer! This trend is still going strong with designers like Diane von Furstenberg, Narciso Rodriguez and Ralph Lauren using it to perfection. A skinny pant can be used to create entirely different looks, from cool and casual to sleek and sophisticated to upscale, high-fashion. Just mix and match it with other textures for a really eye-catching outfit.

Be Bold

Another great trend from the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Show was the fabulous use of bold colors by Tommy Hilfiger, Tadashi Shoji and Max Azria, to name just a few. Give it a shot! Pair a brightly colored top with a toned down bottom to keep the look stylish but not overwhelming. The key here is to use solids.

Sleek Silhouettes

Oh, and did I mention that nothing finishes off your fall look better than a belt? See how these designers accessorized their slim silhouettes with the simple addition of a beautiful belt. Look 1 is from Carolina Herrera. Look 2 is from Donna Karan New York. Look 3 is from Carlos Miele.

As a staunch believer in the religion of fashion, I wanted to be nowhere but at the 2009 L’ORÉAL Melbourne Fashion Festival. But my pilgrimage plans were shelved when my husband had to take off on a business trip and my daughters needed me around. The business trip couldn’t have come at a more inopportune time but as my husband is quick to point out, now-a-days fashion weeks are more common than the common cold. Forever a cynic!

I know you don’t want to hear the ramblings of this domestic diva; rather you would like to know a little more about the L’ORÉAL Fashion Week. I have been religiously calling up and mailing my friends who are fortunate enough to be attending one of the world’s most exciting runway events. Runway shows, exclusive parties, beautiful people – a week-long celebration of fashion.

This year, the L’Oreal Paris Runways will showcase more leading Australian designers than ever before. Each night Central Pier, the home of fashion will showcase the creations of leading designers on a state of the art catwalk. Now let’s get into heart of the matter.

Ruffles, Flounces everywhere…Models in L’Oréal Paris Runway 1 & 2 came out looking ethereal.

Runway 1 had an odd mix of designers, from cut-away trend pieces of sass & bide to the sexy mini-dresses and sheer gowns of J’Aton. Karen Walker, Tina Kalivas, Kirrily Johnston, LIFE withBIRD, Ksubi, Romance was Born and Josh Goot were other designer who presented their creations.

Brother and sister designing duo Camilla & Marc showcased simple but sexy outfits, while Dhini leaned towards Victorian necklines and brought alive the sheer trend. Both Yeojin Bae and Gorman presented fashionable, fun, and wearable designs. Vixen’s creations clearly favoured the bohemian luxury fashion trend. Megan Park featured tribal themes, and earthy hues in her collection, while Akira added an oriental touch to her frocks.
