50 Shades of RED

Red is sexy! Even psychologists agree and say that " women wear red as a way to attract". Perhaps the book "50 shades of GREY really should have been entitled "50 shades of RED" because if you ask me , nothing says "hot and sexy" like a stylish red dress. If red is not your colour - tough.....because not everyone's  tone blends well with it
What do you think?

RED and parties go together well. How often do you see someone in red?
Red is a an easy way to standout


50 shades of RED I said. Merlot RED


For the grown and sexy



RED is famous in the bedroom too


RED for the casual day out look


RED for an elegant day out


RED for the mysteriously sexy look

In Ralph We Trust

Quality trumps quantity. I have said this before & I am re-saying it again. Its better to have a wardrobe with a few high quality statement pieces than one over-flowing with mediocre to common mass-produced items. Creating a style is your responsibility but sometimes the"designer redefines your  style" & this is why I say "In Ralph We Trust"


The Many looks of RL . Always fresh, Preppy and a cut above the "regular" casual style.


The Big Pony is an all time Classic



Polo is known for its colours (above) but its also known for being understated in the formal wear colours (below)




The Tweed Jacket - A staple of Preppy


Formal but not boring

The Ralph Lauren Plaid shirts are the best in the business

In pursuit of glamour Part 2


 These exclusive photo spreads further hightlight what I have emphasised in PART 1. That it takes one or two of the "right pieces" to look sophisticated. There are other factors which help create the glamour in this case such as the fabric/material of the clothes and the understated  black and greys of the outfits.

 






If you  are a conservative type, the last ensemble maybe more appropriate in less  formal enviroments as it has a blatantly sexy edge to it.

The pursuit of Glamour - Part 1


What is glamour? Its an exciting quality that makes certain people seem appealing and attractive but it doesn’t take a lot of money to create a glam look. Less is always more and I am not talking about short skimpy dresses (which are revealing) but rather limiting your ensemble to one or two “statement pieces” The pictures below were kindly submitted by a fan of my blog based in Dubai & highlight what I am talking about.

 


The RIGHT shoe and dress is all it takes

The Sunglass and Scarf are a necessary accessory in hot Dubai





 Note: A touch of red takes away from a plain all black look to add a touch of brightness


Simplicity is the thin line that seperates eloquence from plainess

Fashion & Photography - the perfect marriage (Part 2)


Why are these images so incredible? Is it the clothes? Is it the models? Or is it  the keen photographic eye and post-production "editing" of the pictures?
I say the reason the images are so great is ........ THE STYLE of CLOTHING !  Everything else just complements it :)Glamour needs no words to describe it.

Fashion & Photography -the perfect marriage (Part 1)

Ever wonder why the camera loves some people but it don't love others?
It's the clothes stupid ! Presentation is everything in this world.


                                               Suave & well groomed

Magnetic! The Aviators add a touch of mystic



Casual or formal? It depends.....



Casual yet sleek & clean
