Back To School Fashion 2013: Hot Pants

Previously on Back To School Fashion 2013: I just introduced the series.

Hey Guys! Today we call it mint green...in the 80's they called it sea foam. And I do not know what they call these today but in the 80's they were called Hot Pants so that is what I am going with today. What are hot pants?? They are shorts that are often made of winter material and worn with stockings in the winter. Lately I have been seeing Hot Pants in several magazines as well in the stores. I have the above pair and they are honestly so comfortable!! I think that they look great and that they are a great way to spice up a fall outfit. They are also a good transition between summer and fall because they put together the best of both worlds. The great thing about hot pants is that you can dress them up or dress them down depending on the material and embellishments on the shorts. They can also be purchased at a wide range of prices which is helpful .Whether you want designer originals or ones from Forever 21, hot pants are easily accessible. In addition, there is always the DIY option. I mean you don't even have to sew the shorts from scratch if you are not sewing savy. You can just but a pair of shorts from any clothing store and using fabric glue, add embellishments and fabric patches to create you very own hot pants and them just pair them with matching tights.

Coming Up on Back To School Fashion 2013: I will be talking all about leather!

Project Runway 10-15-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers gave members of the Project Runway crew a makeover. Hey guys! Welcome to this week's Project Runway Recap Review! We are getting closer and closer to fashion week each episode and the competition is getting tight. At this point, any of the designers could go home. Last week was packed with drama...but...its a new week, and a fresh slate, so lets get started. Challenge: The five remaining designers will make an outfit inspired by the New York City bridges (Queensborough, Brooklyn, Manhattan). The designers were assigned a bridge from the black bag of doom. Each designer created a textile with a 3-D printer that they had to incorporate into their garment. This is an Avant Garde challenge. Thoughts In The Workroom: I'm not so sure what I think about 3-D printers...comment down below and let me know what you think about them (in general, not just in fashion). Candice made a good choice not using black again this week. Designers wh...

Is The Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment Worth the Hype?

Hey Fashionista's! Today we are going to talk all about Hailey Bieber's Rhode Skincare line. This is not sponsored, I just really wanted to talk about these products. This semester in my public speaking class, I taught a unit all about persuasive speaking. My goal was to make the topic of persuasive speaking more relatable by showing how prevalent it is in our modern world. What was the product I brought in to show the power of persuasive speaking in the "influencer era"? You bet it was the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment. If you are a longtime reader, you know I rarely talk about skin care. Actually, I have probably never talked about skin care. That's because I don't really know what to say. I don't ever buy the trendy products because I am allergic to so many of them and if not, they make me break out. BUT Hailey Bieber got me- talk about effective persuasive speaking. I watched a few videos on YouTube of her using the products and talking about their ing...

Best Sustainable Brands of 2023

Hey Fashionistas! Recently, I have been trying to make better fashion/beauty choices for the environment so I thought I would share some of my favorites with you. None of this is sponsored (although, if you're one of the brands I mentioned- hi and please feel free to reach out). Garnier: I wanted to start out with Garnier because they are not only an environmentally friendly brand but they are also my favorite beauty brand of all time. Garnier is a holy grail for me. I discovered this brand when they were featured on Project Runway many years ago and they completely changed my confidence. I use so many of their products on my hair: Mouse, Curl Cream, Hair Spray, Hair Gel, Shampoo, Conditioner, Conditioning Masks, etc. Recently, I have switched from the traditional shampoo bottle to the shampoo bar and I am so glad that I did. I still get that Garnier glow to my hair while using less unnecessary plastics. Other Garner Fructis shampoo and conditioner bottles are made partly fr...
