Here’s The Deal:

  • Men’s shirt

Men’s shirt almost the only piece of clothing that can simultaneously look classically rigorous or provocatively original. Fashionable men’s fashion shirts 2016, depending on the cut and colors, can be slipped over for any occasion. Nowadays fitted style is very popular among the men’s fashion shirts cutting.

Polo shirts for men remain to stay very popular version of men’s dress shirts. The secret of men’s polos popularity hidden in the unique appearance and unformatted combination of classic and sporty styles.

Several important points of contemporary men’s fashion shirts trends 2016:

♦ Rigorous high or double collar, the original cut of the pockets and custom cuffs have a very interesting look.

♦ Floral patterns and whimsical folk designs are highly appreciated as the colors of shirts for men.

♦ By means of pop-art prints on men’s dress shirts, every man will be able to quite effectively underline the individuality.

The plastic buttons are no longer worn. Nowadays nacre is predominantly preferred. In the current season, short sleeves are not considered as a sign of simplicity and everyday life.

Modern designers were able to raise men’s short sleeve dress shirts to the peak popularity in 2016. Nowadays they even appropriate to wear at office work, unlike antecedent years, when the elements of a classic business style might act exclusively with long sleeve shirt. White, gray, various variations of blue, marsh, and khaki will be considered fashionable colors of men’s fashion shirts 2016. Invariably popular designs and drawings will remain:

♦ peas;
♦ flowers;
♦ ethno;
♦ abstraction;
♦ Forever-fashionable geometry – stripes and the big variation of cells.

18. Kate Bosworth

Kate Bosworth touched down in JFK in her usual stylish way, expertly layering a gray sweatshirt and a leather jacket over a crisp white shirtdress. A chain-linked burgundy purse and open-toed mules served as her accessories.

Parker stepped up her style game by offsetting her summery LWD with grungy-cool high-tops.

THE NEW HOLIDAY STYLE RULES

Sure, a little black dress or Le Smoking suit is always on par for the party scene, but who says holiday dressing has to be so cut and dry. We’ve got some ideas for switching it up this season — getting glammed-up just got a whole lot more interesting.

Here’s The Deal:

1. WHITE FEELS RIGHT

HOLIDAY STYLE RULES- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:prettylittlething.com/:KELSEY WHITE LACE SHIFT DRESS

Dress in head-to-toe white this season. This includes, but is not limited to, a delicate white shift dress, white diamonds, white spiked pumps and white lingerie pretty enough to let peek through.

2. STATEMENT WAISTS

HOLIDAY STYLE RULES- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:workdayweekend.blogspot.co.uk/:BLAST FROM THE PAST

Peplum is the new black this season, not to mention an easy way to add volume and style to the most basic of silhouettes. The bold dare to wear a power color combo.

3. HIGH-SPEED LACE

HOLIDAY STYLE RULES- myblondeambitions.com

Ingenue Chloë Moretz reinvented a holiday standby like only a hot young thing can do. Her neon lace Stella McCartney pants, paired with a leather biker jacket, are one part party and the other part cool.

4. LIQUID ASSETS

HOLIDAY STYLE RULES- myblondeambitions.com

Avoid looking garish when wearing all over sequins by choosing shiny pieces in a modern midnight blue.

5. NUDE AWAKENING

Champagne for champagne — toast the holiday season by donning a nude slip-dress in lieu of an LBD. You’ll be one step closer to shutting down a room Rosie Huntington-Whiteley-style.

6. FESTIVE FETISH

HOLIDAY STYLE RULES- myblondeambitions.com

While the invites with dress codes for “festive attire” pour in, have a little fun with the hostess by pairing a sexy, unexpected material like PVC or pleather with a more classic one.

7. STREAMLINED SHINE

HOLIDAY STYLE RULES- myblondeambitions.com

We love everything Kate Moss wears, but this particular look could start a holiday dressing revolution. Sleek gold tunic, skinny pants, and low-cut patent pumps, let us count the ways this look works.

8. THE BIG REVEAL

HOLIDAY STYLE RULES- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:cristinahh.wordpress.com/:KEIRA KNIGHTLEY IN ROKSANDA ILINCIC @ “A DANGEROUS METHOD” UK PREMIERE, LONDON

Forget backless, thigh high or down-to-there, the new way to show some skin is to bare your middle — but just a chic peek. Be sure to balance the flaunting of your abs with a conservative hemline.

9. A SHORTS STORY

Shorts for this season are usually more matched for day dressing than a night on the town, but infuse a festive and monochromatic color palette, and you’re just as chic as the other ladies in red.

10. RETRO REDUX

FALL FASHION TREND IN 2015

Fashion month has come to a close, and while we had a lot of fun out there on the streets, the real point of all of this, of course, is to look forward to next season. Watching every single runway show from all of the cities has taught us a lot, so here, we rounded up this very comprehensive trend guide to everything you will be seeing, shopping, and wearing in the months to come.

Here are some Autumn Fashion inspirations to help you through the cold months:

  • THE BLING RING

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:slffashion.com/: Trendy jewelry for FW 2015: Overdose of bling.

Bling is back! After seasons of oversized jewelry with minimal design, we’ve made a return to very feminine, sparkly jewelry, like the brooches at both Prada and Balenciaga and the big earrings that were pretty much everywhere.

  • LADY LOAFERS

Say hello to the stacked kitten heel. Her stiletto cousin was made famous by Hedi Slimane at Saint Laurent and for the past few seasons that’s been the shoe to have, but now it is comfort’s time to shine. This season, designers are proving that a sky high heel is not the only shoe that can make an outfit cool.

  • CARWASH PLEATS

Carwash pleats made their case early in New York for being the skirt shape of the season and then by the time Paris rolled around and Raf Simons showed them on the Christian Dior runway, their fate was certain. The new way to show off those gams next season will be through these pleats.

  • STOMP

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com

Designers seem to be reacting to the winter that we had this year, keeping you plenty prepped for next season with dozens of chic black boots perfect for stomping around in the snow.

  • HAPPY HEMLINES

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com

The flounce hem is the happiest. Seriously, try to tell me this skirt isn’t smiling. Both flirty and fun, the flounce hem works well for the office, as seen at Louis Vuitton, or for evening, like at Mary Katrantzou. This is exactly the kind of versatile piece every woman needs in her wardrobe. I mean, why wear just a pencil skirt when you can have a personality skirt?

  • FURRY FEET

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:fashionoverreason.com/:Furry Feet

Say what you will about these shoes that sort of look like they came from Chewbacca’s wife’s closet, but they were all over the runways and are definitely super chic. They add the perfect amount of texture to any look, providing a point of interest and an obvious conversation piece. The only thing to note: Make sure you are not wearing these with your fur coat because you only get one fur accent per look. After all, you are not Chewbacca’s wife.

  • CUFFIN’ SEASON

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:schultzfurrier.com/:Fur Fall Fashions 2012

Cuffin’ season refers to that time in late October/early November when the days start to get short and cold and you need to lock down a steady hookup so that you don’t have to wander around in the frigid winter looking for love. The cuffin’ season trend is sorta like that…except with sleeves! The commitment is minimal: You don’t actually need fur on the whole coat, just the sleeves, and really, you only need it for the winter.

  • GLOVE LOVE

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com

You guys, she did it, Amal made gloves happen. You can say it’s a coincidence, but you would be wrong. Everyone loves Mrs. Clooney, especially Miuccia Prada, who proved to us that gloves are way better than sleeves.

  • 50 SUITS OF GREY

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:blueisinfashionthisyear.com/:IN FASHION | ALL GREY

God, I had hoped that the movie release would mean the end of 50 Shades references, but I was definitely wrong. Designers have made it so by deciding that an all-grey suit was the look, but actually, we agree. Monochromatic in grey is pretty much the chicest thing you can do, so take notes Miss Steele.

  • GET HIGHER WAISTED

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:mondanite.net/:7 Fashion Trends to Follow This Fall

The waist is making a climb far up past the belly button for a look that is super slimming and very sexy. It’s not just a high waist, it’s an exaggerated silhouette that results in the look of long, lean legs and a teeny tiny mid-section.

  • THE BOYS CLUB

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:fashion.hellomagazine.com/:Milan Men’s Fashion Week: Classic colours and simple sophistication reign

We first noticed the appearance of male models on they runways of NYC at Harbison and Proenza Schouler. It’s not exactly a trend you can wear yourself, but it is cool: Designers are giving new meaning to the concept of androgyny by giving men a place in the women’s runway shows. While the world was shocked to see the return of Zoolander and Hansel at Valentino, we think their epic walk-off was not the first or the last we will see of this burgeoning trend.

  • SHORT SKIRTS

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:alefashion.wordpress.com/:Givenchy Spring 2012 Collection l Paris Fashion Week

Ever since Nicolas Ghesquière’s first collection for Louis Vuitton, we have been getting more than comfortable with a raised hemline. Guess what? We like our legs! And not to mention the silhouette is youthful and flattering on just about everyone. No wonder designers far and wide are embracing the power of the mini skirt.

  • ONE SHOULDER WONDERS

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:theglobalgirl.com/:Reem Acra Spring 2014

The only thing better than a long sleeved gown is one that only has one sleeve—or so say Missoni and Simone Rocha, and that’s good enough for me. It seems like a hard trend to ascribe to but when you think about it, the one sleeve is genius. It’s the perfect way to show off a fabulous bag without any distractions from a pesky sleeve.

  • PLAID AND SIMPLE

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:cinefog.com/:Women’s Coats Fall/Winter 2014-2015: 20 Fashion Trends

Plaid is having a moment on the runways, particularly red plaid. Designers are partial to a tartan print and it’s not hard to see why: The red adds an interesting dose of color to an otherwise very classic fabric. And since we all are guilty of overdoing black in the winter and black was already very dominant on the runway, it is also nice to see some red to brighten up the mood.

  • THE SKINNY SCARF

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:thezoereport.com/:Meet High Fashion’s Most Affordable Necklace

A residual effect of the boho trend, which is still holding strong, the skinny scarf is making a play for the must-have accessory of the season. Worn with everything from a casual sweater dress to a full-on gown, the skinny scarf is the one item that can transition very easily between all outfit occasions.

  • HOLD TIGHT

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:makeuptutorials.com/:14 Fall Fashion Trends & How To Wear Them

Continuing the covered legs mantra, tights have also had a major place on the runways. At Saint Laurent, ripped pairs for the party girl were seen under barely-there dresses. At Giamba, a sweet Swiss dot accompanied tame cocktail attire, and at Sophie Theallet, a classic fishnet lent a retro vibe to the idea. Personally, I have never been a fan of tights but I have to admit the runways swayed me this season so perhaps the next Polar Vortex won’t mean pants-only.

  • THE TURTLENECK DICKIE

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:elle.com/:TRENDSPOTTING, NEW YORK FASHION WEEK: TURTLENECK DICKIES

Ah, the illustrious turtleneck dickie: not quite a scarf and not quite a sweater either. It is pointless and slightly weird so it is most definitely high fashion. Seen with everything from sexy dresses at Altuzarra to chunky knits at BCBG, the turtleneck dickie is the thing for fall.

  • NOUVEAU VICTORIAN

FALL 2015 TREND GUIDE- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:stylefish.ie/:Stylefish Autumn Fashion Trends Report

Forget going back decades for inspiration, this season we are going back centuries. Things are feeling positively 19th century on the runways. High collars, ruffles, and lace all made an appearance as a nod to the era but bright colors, leather details, and sexy silhouettes subverted the traditionally buttoned-up look with some modern flair.

Tips To Bring The Beach Inside Your Home

Summer may be passing, but summer decor that we associate with beach memories don’t have to. Here are some ways to represent the warm season with home decor.

Leisurely days spent swimming in the ocean and relaxing on the shore are what summer is made of, so it’s sad to realize that beach season is nearly over. But don’t despair sun lovers; you can bring the beach indoors and enjoy it all year round with these clever design tips.

Here’s the Tip:

1. Choose a “beachy” color palette

Ways To Bring The Beach Inside- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:colorpalettes.net/:beach color

Create beach bliss in your home with a color palette from the shore. Ideas and combinations seem unlimited. Depending on time of day and season, colors present themselves differently.

A new coat of paint is one of the easiest ways to spruce up a room. Choose the colors of the coast to bring the beach inside your home. The soft beige of the sand, the vibrant turquoise of the ocean, and the pale pinks and grays of shells are obvious choices, but don’t be afraid to think outside the box.

Think about what the beach means to you and look for paints with colors that remind you of these important elements to make your home feel as relaxing as a day at the beach.

2. Get the textures right

Ways To Bring The Beach Inside- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:davisenterprise.com/:Summer HG: Summer can inspire decor all year

Natural, golden brown wicker looks beautiful against a beachy color palette. Consider buying wicker chairs, using wicker boxes to organize your essentials, or browsing thrift stores for a vintage wicker cabinet.

Light cotton drapes will let the light through and create the bright, airy atmosphere you associate with time at the beach. You could also decorate with cotton covered cushions in the beachy colors discussed above.

3. Decorate your home with found objects

Ways To Bring The Beach Inside- myblondeambitions.com
Photo credit from:perfectlyimperfectblog.com/:summertime decorating

The relationship you have with the beach is unique, so rather than scouring the stores for beach-themed décor, it’s much smarter to decorate with found items that represent your time at the beach.

Use the gifts from the sea!  Large shells, pebbles, pieces of coral, sea fans, and pieces of driftwood can look striking sitting on mantle pieces, tables, and other surfaces. Medium shells inside a glass bowl make an excellent centerpiece. Use small shells and pieces of sea glass to give your photo frames a beach-inspired makeover.

4. Proudly display your beach memories

Another way to create a personalized beach-inspired space is to decorate it with memories of your time on the shore. Take a camera with you on your last few visits to the beach this season, and snap photos of your favorite sights. You could frame the photos in rustic wooden frames, which call to mind the driftwood you find on the beach, or get your favorite shots printed on large canvases.

Summer may be nearly over, but you needn’t say goodbye to the beach just yet. With these clever design ideas you can enjoy the seaside all year round.

You might be Wondering:

What Is Summer?

Ways To Bring The Beach Inside- myblondeambitions.com

Summer is the hottest of the four temperate seasons, falling between spring and autumn. At the summer solstice, the days are longest and the nights are shortest, with day-length decreasing as the season progresses after the solstice. The date of the beginning of summer varies according to climate, tradition and culture, but when it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere, and vice versa.
