Plastic Fantastic


I love lace and sheer fabrics, but plastic pieces are taking the see-through trend to a whole new level of fun this spring. Obviously you can’t wear a cellophane-like skirt out of the house unless you are Lady Gaga, but plastic accessories are a very realistic way to wear this playful trend.  You can even get away with a plastic coat, or a top with a bandeau underneath.

Foilded Again!

Foil is no longer just for wrapping up the left overs and dying your hair. It’s a fashion trend, and it was sported on spring’s runways in a variety of ways. In beauty and in fashion, silver is making a statement.

Maybe you can’t glue silver foil to your eyelids like at Fendi. Instead, use a cream silver shadow to make your eyes shine. You can also paint your nails in some eye-catching chrome colors like Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri Fast Nail Color in Silver Sweep.

At Giles, Alexander McQueen, Diesel Black Gold, Julien Macdonald and Christopher Kane, models were decked in tinsel tones. If you aren’t brave enough to wear a silver skirt or pants just yet, why not start small? Alexander Wang’s Devere metallic leather shoulder bag or Topshop’s Podium cross over platform sandals are a great way to get on board.

Royal Watching

This is what art looks like. From creative geniuses Chris Nichols and Fiona Green, here is one of my favourite editorials in some time. It was featured in FLARE’s December issue and showcases a decadent wardrobe on knock-out newcomers Dani, Finlay Moore and Emily Fox.  This shoot is definitely going to win some awards.
