Grammy's 2017 After Party

The outfits that were worn at the Grammy after parties made up for the lack of beautiful clothes at the Grammy's themselves. The rich and famous took these events to express themselves through expensive brand name clothing. Halsey (left) expressed her unique and attention grabbing personality with a mixed pattern outfit. The outfit had a lot of red detailing which is very flattering on her skin tone. Halsey's outfit was very unique and distinctive, just like her alternative music. Jhene Aiko (right) stays up to date with the current trends, wearing her thigh high boots and a slip dress with a shimmering effect. Jhene's outfit was alluring which is alined with her singing and performing style. Both Halsey and Jhene stayed authentic to who they are and what they stand for as musicians.

Grammy's 2017 Fashion

I could say that the outfits of the red carpet this year were interesting. But that would be a total understatement. This was the first year that I watched the Grammy's and didn't fall in love with any outfit. I was underwhelmed, but hey thats just me. I believe the most talked about outfit was CeeLo Green and that was only for the memes. I truly only liked two outfits, and they were: Skylar Grey (Left) and Paris Jackson (Right). Skylar is wearing a classy blouse dress with a slit in the front. This is very unique and shows a sophistication. Paris is wearing very earthy tones that really bring out her eyes. The sparkles on her dress were done in a very tasteful way that made it look expensive rather than painstakingly bling. The shape also complimented her figure, especially with the high waist to make her legs look longer. Looking forward to see what the Oscar's Red Carpet will bring!

Fishnet Tights

Fishnet tights sound scary to people at first. They sound grunge and goth to most people initially. But, now this idea is becoming increasingly mainstream and more "tumblr." Fishnet tights are mainly worn under distressed boyfriend jeans, it is styled this way so you can see the fishnet under the holes. If or when you wear a cropped shirt you can catch a glimpse of the fishnet tights above the waistline, and at the bottom of the jeans above the shoes. They add another layer of complexity to your wardrobe. Some may be intimidated by this trend, and you have the right to be, but don't let this intimidation stop you from slaying the city streets. 

Bodysuits

Bodysuits are coming back from the 70s and are taking this season by storm. The Kardashians wear them with almost every outfit and women all over are following right along. Especially for the winter, bodysuits are so perfect because they tuck into your pants and stay in place so it keeps you warm. There are so many different types of body suits that can be worn for many different occasions. Bodysuits are also perfect for low rise jeans. Now, when your jeans fall, you don't need to worry about what people might see. With a body suit it stays tucked in to your pants for a nice, classy, and sleek look. If you don't have a bodysuit yet you should totally try it and see how life changing it is.

What Has Fashion Become?

What in the world happened to fashion? Online shopping and sweatpants, that's what happened! Have you noticed that every decade people tend to get lazier and lazier? People stopped going to the mall to buy clothes because they rather sit in their beds and be lazy. Don't deny the fact that online shopping is a struggle. You need to buy clothes before you try them on. Online shopping is more expensive (shipping price), more inefficient (shipping time, may have to return if it doesn't fit), and your missing out of the joy of physically touching and finding clothes (many clothes don't look the same online). Everyone is so worried about being comfortable, and they think the only way to achieve this is by wearing sweatpants and sweatshirts. People have this idea in their head that jeans are tight and restrictive, and therefore people stray away from wearing them. But hello wake up people we're in the 21st  century! Why do you think they invented jeggings anyway? You're as comfortable as if you are wearing leggings, but you look as stylish as if you were wearing jeans. Dressing lazy makes you feel tired and unproductive. Do society and yourself a favor and wear your jeggings and a cute t-shirt and see how much more confident and energetic you really can be.

NYFW The Shows

Liberatore

Dugi

PM Waterlily

New York Fashion Week The Shows are famous all around the world. New York Fashion Week, held in February and September of each year, is a semi-annual series of events (generally lasting 7–9 days) when international fashion collections are shown to buyers, the press, and the general public. It is one of four major fashion weeks in the world, collectively known as the "Big 4", along with those in Paris, London and Milan. It is every fashionistas dream to go inside and view these exclusive shows. It has always been my dream, and somehow with crazy luck, my dream came true. I went to see 3 shows; Francesca Liberatore, Orlando Dugi, and PM Waterlily (Patricia Michaels). The energy and excitement in the room is contagious and you wish it to never end. Each show was different and distinct in its own way and that's what made it so special. Liberatore's collection was very flowy and simplistic with a clear inspiration of the NYC skyline. Dugi's collection was very structured with attention to form and fit, it felt Chinese Dynasty inspired. Michaels' collection was very different from all the rest because she payed close attention to how the outfits would move on the body and catch air while walking. She had many small details which made it very intriguing. When I saw PM Waterlily it felt like I was seeing a water goddess show. I had so much fun and every show was amazing and unique. I can't wait to go hopefully next year again.

Lately I have been very busy with college applications and haven't had much time to blog. This weekend I was fortunate enough to go to NYFW. I got to see Francesca Liberatore's show because I was invited through Marist College, PA. The show was amazing and I saw Kelley Osbourne! When I was in the hotel elevator I saw a man wearing a Style Fashion Week pass. I asked him if there was any way he can get me to see a show. He said, "I'm actually leaving tomorrow morning so you can have my pass and see shows tomorrow. Fashion Police was recording an episode at one of the shows and it was unbelievable seeing Tim Gunn just a couple feet away from me. I saw two shows, Dugi and PM Waterlilly, they were both stunning and I got the opportunity to meet many people from the fashion industry. I will be writing posts for each show individually and describe them more detailed. I will also be posting pictures from the shows. NYFW is obviously about the amazing fashion shows but a big part of it is also what goes on outside of the show doors. The street style in NYC is so creative and unique during the week because the most fashion forward people are in the city. They are not afraid to be different. I took many streetsyle pictures along with pictures of the shows. I will be posting the pictures and trends that I noticed later on. I will be posting a lot more often so I hope you like what's coming up and feel free to subscribe to my blog so you will get notified when I post a new blog post.
