Swim Suits Fashion In 2007 And In The Early Times!
By Livia Monroe 

Swim suits worn by American women have certainly come a long way since the late nineteen century era, when women had to cover up by wearing specially designed woolen swim dresses. Modesty had to be upheld at all costs, and trying to stay afloat wearing this type of swim suit would have been so very difficult as all the layers became waterlogged. Wouldn't these women be shocked to see the latest trend in swim suits today, particularly the thong bikini which is regarded as the sexiest and stylish of all swim wear?

Swim suits and designer swim wear caters for an enormous variety of shapes and sizes. Swim suits have to stretch over bulges and bumps and still look attractive when the mission is accomplished. This can be no mean feat when we take a cross section of the population and put a swim suit on them. Most of us at some stage in our lives will own a swim suit, whether it is a child's swim suit or a swim suit for a teenager or adult. The opportunity does come along where we can visit the beach or a pool where a swim suit will be a necessity. When choosing a swim suit there are rules that one should follow so that your swim suit will be as flattering to your shape as possible. Not many of us are fortunate enough to own the body of a swim suit model, but that doesn't mean that we can't look good.

Now the latest fashion trends and in swim suits and swimwear mode can be seen in bikinis, bandinis, tankinis and of course the classic one piece swim suits. Swim suits don't have to be brief to look good; some of the one piece swim suits can look even sexier leaving a little more to the imagination.

Getting a qualified sales attendant to help with styles is always valuable when buying a swim suit as they know which cut is more flattering to which figure type. Things like the cut of the leg are really important when buying a vogue swim suit. Design also plays a very important role in swim suits, large floral designs will not look so good on the larger figure, and nor will horizontal stripes. Color is also very important in swimsuits. White looks great with a tan, but it will be very difficult to keep it looking like new. We all would like to look good in a swim suit, and choosing a swimsuit is easy with the huge range of styles available. Not only that, but swimwear is made to suit any budget, if you can afford diamond trimmed bikinis then you will be able to find them.

Taking note of care instructions when you purchase your swim suit will prolong its life. Chlorinated water from swimming pools is fairly damaging to swim suits and should be rinsed out. Fading and eventual rotting of the elastine will be the result of neglect. On the whole though, swim suits are one item that are very easy to care for, as they need minimal washing usually just a good rinse will do.

I’ll see you parading on Florida’s beaches this summer, 2007!

The Height Of Fashion
By Maria Hamilton

Women have at one time or another worn them...high heels. Remember the high heels we wore at our prom, or to our best friend's wedding, or worn them on that special date? It was the fashion years ago, and is still the fashion today. However, there is a new trend of "height" fashion in shoes among women. Women are paying $750 for a pair of six inch stiletto high heeled shoes. Have women lost their minds?

This is the newest and hottest shoe fashion on the market today. You would expect to see only celebrities wearing these shoes while they model in a fashion magazine, but women, in general, are buying them, and poof, they are six inches taller.

Honestly, these shoes should come with a warning label on them. Wearing stiletto high heeled shoes contributes to poor posture, stresses Achilles' tendons and ankles, and can damage your heels. Fashion trends are often short-lived, but for some reason women take part in them as soon as it becomes trendy. Although looking fashionable is short-lived, women engage in this type of purchase because they can. It is just what women do.

I saw a young women at the mall wearing a pair of stiletto high heeled shoes. She was carrying her purse on one shoulder, her packages with the other, and at the same time, trying to walk on the slippery concrete flooring. The woman was leaning to one side with her purchases, while attempting to keep her large purse from slipping off her shoulder, but like a trooper, she continued to put one foot in front of the other in her stiletto high heeled shoes. People who observed her could not decide if she was off balance or was breaking these shoes in. She finally sat down on a bench nearby, while everyone exhaled the breaths we held, she smiled back at all of us.

I decided to sit next to this young women, and out of curiosity, I asked her why would she wear a pair of shoes like these. "Oh, aren't these just great," she replied. "My feet feel so sexy," she added. When I offered to help her with her packages, she politely declined, saying, "I can manage." "I have two more stops to make." As I watched her, click- clacking away on those high heels, she looked totally deformed. I prayed she would make it to wherever she was headed to without a terrible fall. Ladies, I am all for fashion, but that scene was not only to comical, but scary to watch. When women often dress up, they generally look sexy in a well chosen dress, jewelry, and heels.

When heels properly fit and are at the right height, women walk with a feminine swing that turns heads with thoughts, of "Oh my, that is one fine looking woman." These kinds of comments give women a thumbs up, and people hold their breath not in fear of expecting a fall, but because fashion has made a clear statement. There has to be a better reason to spend $750 on a pair of stiletto shoes. My take is that women love attention and taking part in a new fashion trend is their way of getting it. That is certainly a high price to pay for attention. In time, these shoes will loose their appeal and women will move onto something else to waste their money on. I cannot wait to see what will be the next fashion trend. Perhaps I would rather not know. This was bad enough! If you had $750, what would you spend it on?

Quick Introduction to Fashion Designer Furnishing
By Lester Fong 

The recent trend of presenting fashion brands as lifestyle concepts has resulted in some designers moving into home decoration. Here’s a quick introduction to fashion designer furnishing.

Armani/Casa by Giorgio Armani is a good example of fashion as a complete lifestyle concept. The designer, who founded his fashion empire with an unlined jacket in 1975 says he supervises every Armani/Casa project with the help of an interior design team. Like his fashion collections, new furnishing items are rolled out each season. Pitched at the high-end crowd, the range includes furniture, ornaments, lighting and fabrics and are priced from US$85 for a glass tumbler to US$5,995 for a dining table. Every year, the pieces are showcased at the prestigious Milan Furniture Fair. This year’s fair in March saw the launch of the Amleto, its made-to-measure walk-in wardrobe.

Unlike fashion trends which change with the season, home furnishing tastes are less fickle. But there are still ways for us to update their homes regularly. For example, the pieces of furniture are made to last but textiles can help renew and refresh a home environment in a soft but immediate way. Thus textiles feature widely in quite a few fashion designers’ home collection, ranging from cushion covers to bed linen and table runners.

From observations, shoppers of such home furnishing are usually familiar with the designers’ ethos and style. Fashion labels are branching into home collections because they want to extend their look into lifestyle items.

In addition to Armani, French label Hermès, also has a Hermès Home Collection, available since 1930. This range from tableware, silverware, accessories and furniture priced from US$465 for an ash tray to US$1,075 for a wool-cashmere blanket.

Its team of designers is different from the one that does its ready-to-wear collection, but there are crossovers. For example, the label’s latest porcelain collection, Fil d’Argent, is designed by Henri d’Origny, who has been designing Hermes ties for almost 50 years.

Bottega Veneta is another fashion label to introduce a home range. Its first Home Collection was launched at the Milan Furniture Fair last year.

The collection was designed by the label’s creative director Tomas Maier, who mentioned in an interview last year that the range was in response to what customers want (‘They have been asking us to make household items for four years now’). He added that he aimed for furniture which could be moved around easily to constantly create different looks for the home.

The collection offers pieces such as bookcases, tables and foldable stools and beds priced from US$290 for a tea light holder to US$5,600 for a table in limestone and leather.

However, not everyone is a fan of fashion designer furnishing. I’ve had friends who complained about expensive sofas which look fabulous but cause the user to sink in once they’re sat on. Their verdict: not every label is equipped with the expertise to make furniture so shop with care. Pay attention to details and choose carefully to enjoy pieces which can be passed to the next generation.
