Tips For Cool Jeans

Tips For Cool Jeans
The March issue of Elle Bazil features three models (Ana Beatriz Barros, Bruna Tenorio and Luma Grothe) on three different covers photographed by Bob Wolfenson.The reason why i chose to show you only the cover where Ana Beatriz Barros appears on is because i'm mesmerised by those glamorous jeans inspired from the 90s.So, i thought i should share with you some ideas for giving your own pair of jeans a fabulous "makeover".

Elle Brazil,March 2015

The jeans Anna is wearing look like they have several brooches attached on them, so if you own some it will take you just a few minutes to pin them to your jeans and make them cooler.You can even add some hair clips or anything else that can be easily pinned, because who will know?

These are just a few suggestions.Be sure to match them properly, so you can achieve that 90s look without overdoing it.Below is another idea of adding brooches to your jeans as presented by Dsquared.

The most efficient and easy way is the brooch idea, but if you know how to sew then you have some others possibilities.Even if you don't know, you can always take them to a tailor or ask your mother/grandmother to do it for you.

You have a lot of possibilites of embellishing your jeans.You can add pearls,crystals or anything you like.Either if you embellish them only on the knee area or on the entire surface, it's impossible not to have an amazing result.

Trends: The Cape Dress

Trends: The Cape Dress
A trend that became popular since actress Greta Garbo wore it in the movie "The Torrent" (1926) is the stunning combination between a cape and a dress called " the cape dress".It was extremely popular in the 1950s and it was recreated constantly since then.For some years, this fashionable idea delighted us on the red carpet and made us want one of our own.

The gowns worn by Gwyneth Paltrow and Lana del Rey are not necessarily part of this category, because the cape is not incorporated into the dress but it's mainly the same idea.So if you can't find one that combines the features of the cape and dress, you can always add a separate cape over one of your dresses.

Bridal: The Wedding Jumpsuit

Bridal: The Wedding Jumpsuit
Christian Oth Studio posted this beautiful photo of a bride with her bridesmaids taken by photographer Shawn Connell.The cool thing about it is that the traditional wedding dress was replaced with a white jumpsuit taking bridal wear to the next level.While i believe that some of you won't be very excited by this choice, maybe others will feel like it represents them and maybe will even take it into consideration.


It's a bold and modern alternative of wearing white on your wedding day, but as long it's still really elegant and you feel good in it then this is all that will count.

If you want to be more elegant you can always try a jumpsuit that has a long train attached, oversized sleeves or even a cape like the one Solange Knowles wore to her wedding.

Remember that accessories are very important, so to create a complete look you'll have to pay attention to the details.With the right veil, bouquet, jewelry and shoes you will look as royal as a traditional bride.

Trends: Turbans on the Red Carpet
Turbans are the kind of headpieces that i wish i would see more on the red carpet, because the few times celebrities wore it they caught everyone's attention.It seems like the Met Gala is the event where turbans are present once in a while.

.It all started with the one from 2009 when supermodel Kate Moss wore a Marc Jacobs gold lamé dress with a turban made by Stephen Jones.I still sigh when i see it.

In 2012, another model continued this tradition by wearing a gold sequin Rachel Zoe dress accesorised with a gold turban.The look seems inspired by the one Kate wore before and even the back of the dress is similar.

The 2009 spring/summer collection from Ralph Lauren is the perfect inspiration for every one of you who wishes to adopt this style.As you can see, a part of the outfits presented are all gold.If you feel like the all gold outfit is too much for you, than Eva Mendes and Chloe Chloe Sevigny have the perfect suggestions for you.
