The Maxi Skirt

People may call it the granny skirt, but I love it not only are they extremely comfortable, easy, not to mention incredibly flattering, and down-to-earth (literally). The style is versatile and perfect for summer as well as autumn and winter. What’s not to like? That’s why I was pleased to see designer labels such as 3.1 Phillip Lim, Missoni, and J. Crew feature fresh takes on the trend in their fall runway shows.

When worn correctly, maxi skirts and dresses are as flattering as they are fashionable. However, playing with proportion can be tricky. With longer lengths, it’s all about balance. To avoid being a fashion victim, follow these tips for maxi-friendly dressing…
  1. The sky’s the limit. No matter your height (yes, I am talking to you, petite ladies) you can wear floor length dresses and skirts. That’s why they invented heels.
  2. It’s a balancing act. Keep the scale of the skirt in mind. Floor length skirts look lovely with tighter fitting tops (tucked in and/or belted at the natural waist). If the skirt is cut closer to the body, opt for a looser fitting top. Cropped jackets and sweaters also work well with floor length dresses and skirts. One of my favourite casual outfits is a simple maxi dress paired with a cropped denim jacket. 
  3. Be bold! Fashion is all about taking risks, I’ve seen girls style their maxi skirts with slouchy sweaters, tied denim shirts, and simple tucked-in tees for an effortlessly unfussy yet chic look.
 These are some of my favourite ways to wear the maxi.

Halloween party spook-tacuar !

I love Halloween, but I hate that people think there is only one thing you can do with a pumpkin.
NO, you can do so much with a pumpkin, like adding glitter, lace, paint the list is endless.
So I have made a Campaign, to get as many people to makeover there pumpkins. 
To help I have listed some ways how you could give your average pumpkin a glamorous makeover, just with a bit of bibbity bobbity boo. 

1) Keep your drinks cool as ice, this halloween with an ice-box pumpkin.

2) Add some sparkle to them pumpkins like http://www.marthastewart.com/
 3)  Lace them pumpkins, you could use a lacy stocking.
 4) flower power 

 
5) Add some glamour by bedazzling

6) Use some fabric and ribbion.
7) Go down the Indian route with a bit of Henna.
8) I love this idea, perfect for little children so they dont have to cut the pumpkin, and easy to do.
What you need…
  • flat-finish latex paint in any color
  • unsanded tile grout
  • paint stirrer
  • paint roller or sponge paintbrush
  • 150-grit sandpaper
  • sponge
Instructions (as listed in Martha Stewart Living, January 2007)
  1. Pour 1 cup of paint into a container.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of unsanded tile grout into paint.
  3. Mix with a paint stirrer, carefully breaking up clumps.
  4. Apply paint with a roller or sponge paintbrush to a primed or painted surface.
  5. Work in small section, going over the same spot several times to ensure even coverage.
  6. Let dry.
  7. Smooth area 150-grit sandpaper.
  8. Wipe off dust.
  9. Rub the side of a piece of chalk all over the entire painted surface.
  10. Lastly, wipe away chalk residue with a barely damp sponge.
10) Last but by no means least, my favourite one carved but with a twist. You can get a template from here http://www.marthastewart.com/270940/vine-and-leaf-carved-pumpkin-centerpiece
