2016 Oscars Red Carpet Moments

The 88th Academy Awards came and went, and while we celebrate Leo FINALLY winning that coveted Oscar, we also celebrate the evening's red carpet moments. Here are my five best dressed selections.

Donning the Double Braid

For many of us the double braid conjures up memories of primary school and Sunday evenings spent on the floor while being braided. New York Fashion Week this year however, showed us that the braid is back! According to Vogue “a tight pair of twin plaits became the ultimate off-duty hair statement for Kim Kardashian West and Harper Beckham, and already the style has a street style stamp of approval from models who wore their plaited runway looks straight off the runway”. Right now my favourite double-braider is Jess Glynne, who knows how to rock a tune and rock a hair-do.  There are many different ways to wear your braid; from sleeked back, to messy and festival-styled boho, but my personal favourite is the Dutch-braid...

A Culotte Above the Rest

Hello fashionistas! Yes it has been more than a year since my last update, and in the meantime I have become a mom and started a new job as the Head of Corporate communication and Marketing at our national research institution. During my hiatus I couldn’t help but notice a wonderful and scary new trend emerging among the young and fashionable – Culottes. These knee-length trousers, are cut with full legs to resemble a skirt, and have their origin etched in history. First worn by men, that term has been around since the late Middle Ages. From kings to military personnel and the first few presidents of the United States, men wore trousers that hit just below the knee.

You're (not) Welcome!

Hello 2014! Its official…a new year of fashion and trends have dawned upon us, and while I am still scouring glossy magazines and European fashion shows for trend inspiration, I am also pleased to say goodbye to 2013 trends that are no longer welcome in the new year or our wardrobes. I give you nine of the worst (and ‘we’re so over it’) trends from last year. 1. Beanies Usually a winter staple that can be fashionable and practical during the colder months, Beanies became somewhat of a novelty in 2013. They were suddenly everywhere. During Fashion Week in February the beanie's popularity even trumped all the perfect blowouts beneath them. But then they didn't fade out the way they normally do with the warm weather, and people kept wearing...
