Bytesize fashionable ideas - Beyonce

Beyonce knows how ! Yes, I would TOTALLY wear this !

Business casual meets tribal rush. Even acceptable for some workplaces if you lose the earrings.

Popular trends men hate

Well, I feel the same way about most of these trends !

http://shine.yahoo.com/event/the-thread/why-do-men-hate-these-popular-trends-women-love-2467752

The ones I'd add?

- short denim skirts with black leggings

- roman sandals (so NOT sexy!)

- short pants with pantyhose

- big hipster glasses

Ballerina shoes - practical in every situation

There are days when I feel like dressing more feminine and days when I dress sporty. Even if you're a fan of high heels, you have to admit that there are days and situations when you want to feel confortable, no matter what. A simple pair of ballerina shoes (or 'ballet flats') can be worn with both sporty and more feminine outfits.

If you want a pair that can save you in every situation, look for a SIMPLE, BLACK pair, with a small bow. Other details would make it look too elegant, too sporty, or in some cases, just plain weird.

Something like this pair:

German store New Yorker http://www.newyorker.de/pages/en/top_news.html has cheap & simple ballerina shoes in black, brown, navy, green..

Wearing ballerina shoes with a feminine outfit

DON'Ts

Please DON'T do this, it's just plain AWFUL.

DON'T wear pantyhose under shorts, DON'T wear leggings under shorts (even worse!) and such.

Bonus: some eye-candy !

Here are some lovely ballerina shoes:

A pair with leopard print. I have one too, but in the natural leopard colours.

A nice beaded pair, for a classy look. Keep your outfit simple.

A cute & elegant pair by Chanel.

Welcome !

Hello everyone,

I have decided to start this blog as my personal take on trends & the fashion world. I am far from being a fashionista, but try to be careful with the way I dress & love to browse fashion collections, blogs, 'hot or not' and 'who wore it best' articles. I'm practical when buying clothes, shoes & bags. Buying simple items will help you a lot, as well as not striving to be a fashionista if you are a normal person like me, or still in school (yes, that would be useless). You should wear nice items that fit you, dress tastefully & spot the trends that never get old. That's it !

I hope you all enjoy the ride !
