Everyone wants to wear brand name designers, but not everyone can afford it. The secret is to find off price retailers that will sell brand names for cheaper.

    

Some retailers will sell brand name designers for less and this will make it easier to find great fashion at great prices. Retailers like Marshalls, Nordstrom Rack, T.J. Maxx, Zappos, or Overstock will guarantee designer names at low prices.

Lady Gaga Fashion Extravaganza

It is undoubtedly everyone knows that Lady Gaga is an amazing artist, but what is she wearing. One of the most memorable couture fashion designers Alexander McQueen made some great pieces that Gaga has worn, but for fashion purposes only not ready-to-wear. How far will Gaga take couture? Will it become the new couture ready-to-wear line?


Lady Gaga does rock the couture look, but she should keep it on the runway and make her fashion statement in a different direction. Her talent speaks for itself ans should not be over shown by her outfit. It almost makes you wonder what Gaga really looks like when she is not in couture.

The High School Dress Code

The high school dress code has shown more skin than a person in a bathing suit. There style has moved toward showing more skin is a "cute" look. The shorts have got shorter, their shirts have got lower, and the option of bras or underwear is nowhere to be found. These young adults should not be wearing this type of style just yet because it is screaming sexuality. 


There are worse things that could happen if the wrong person saw a young girl dressed like this. Their outfits should be appropriate to their age. Short skirts, and low cut tops will give the wrong person the wrong impression. I do think that it is okay to show off your shoulders, some legs, and your arms, but everything else they should consult their parents.

There are ways to make your cleavage look tasteful and sexy at the same time. Not everyone wants to see cleavage and sometimes it can be considered indecent exposure. So is this too much



There are ways to prevent this from happening to you: wear the correct bra with plenty of coverage, avoid wearing low cut tops,  or try not to accessorize with flashy jewelry that will highlight your cleavage. Choosing shirts that are higher cut, wearing full coverage bras, and or using quick fixes like tape or stickers.
