Rihanna in Harem Pants

!--Tweet this button by Tips-o-Tricks.co.cc-->
For the Balmain fashion show in Paris, RiRi wore a very distinct piece of garment; harem pants. Rihanna, being the fashionista she is; definitely pulled off the look. The satin/silk material of the pants compliments the lace top. Combining different materials tones the pants down and brings the outfit together. If your not a rebel fashionista, we have a more casual version from Dime Piece below.

!--Tweet this button by Tips-o-Tricks.co.cc-->


Fascinators are fancy headpieces that are becoming popular in the United States. It has been said to have first been created in the 17th century, originated in Milan and were worn by high class/society women.These vintage accessories have recently been seen on many celebrities and is the perfect alternative to a hat. Very few can pull off the very dressy headpiece because its so fancy and elegant. They are usually seen on brides on their weeding day but now can be worn for any occassion! If not accessorized correctly you can look like someone who just has feathers on their head and a net over their face. They are usually made out of feathers, netting, beads, flowers but some of them have a more casual look. So there you go fashionistas...vintage, chic, and fancy. Check out which celebs wore them recently below:





Miss Kelly wore the original vintage fascinator look during the New York Fashion Week for the Tracy Reese Spring 2010 collection.


For a recent photoshoot in August, Mya wanted the look of a fascinator but wanted to keep her hair up so she just kept the netting aspect of the fascinator just above her eyes. (Reesee/ZiggaZaggaProductions)



Ri Ri combined the look of a fascinator and a hat for a more casual look and also made sure her fascinator inspired accessory was seen by covering half her face with the netting. She wore the look during the primiere of the Jay Leno Show while performing Run This Town with Jay-Z and Kanye West.

Baby Phat & KLS Spring 2010 Collection

!--Tweet this button by Tips-o-Tricks.co.cc-->

On September 15 2009, Kimora Lee Simmons debuted her Spring/Summer Collection for all urban chic fashionistas! The collection had an array of bright colors as well as gold tones to compliment the garments. Most of the models adorned a lot of jewelry around their necks and wrists which gave a bohemian look. The collection featured loose and ruffly tops and some skirts and tights/pants were heavily sequined. We love how Baby Phat captures cool spring days and hot summer nights with these seperates. They also have a 70's feel with a touch of Moroccan. You will feel exotic and sexy at the same time. Can't wait until these items hit the racks!


The Looks:

This loose ruffled two tone top with light ripped jeans that are accessorized with a chunky necklace and oversized bangles is nice to wear during the day for a casual but still sexy look.

Shiny brown and gold tones compliment this orange loose long tunic top. The belt is tight around the waist to give shape to the body. Perfect for wearing out during the day and straight into the night life.




This look says bohemian chic with a mix of the 70's. This bright pink top has loose sleeves with embroidery around the neckline with long beaded necklaces. The shorts have a tie dye and acid wash look to them while the big gold belt ties the whole style together.







This dress just literally says royalty. Purple is definitely a regal color and gold of course has a meaning of wealth and richness. Wear this and you'll feel like a queen!




If you're into getting attention definitely wear these sequined pants. They have a black undertone which gives it a sexy sleek look. The ruffly loose top compliment these ultra tight pants by feathering out and meeting at the waist. The embellishment around the neckline and the simple necklace keeps this look sleek and chic.

During the summer many celebs wore bright colors with dark color nails. So for the fall season BOC has an idea... all the stylistas should wear bright nail polish with dark colored clothes. Try this out and see what your friends and family say. You might even get noticed more. Remember the nail polish has to be a solid bright color. For example, wear your favorite maroon shirt with rose pink nail polish (see how it compliments your look!).
