How Much Would You Pay for Fashion?

Everyone should know the saying "living beyond their means." So how much is too much is too much to pay for fashion? There are secrets to finding great fashion for less. 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. These places are the stores to be at to find great deals on Coach, Dooney and Burke, Juicy Couture, Betsey Johnson, Guess, Kenneth Cole, BCBG, and more.

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.

How Much is Too Much

How much is too much cleavage? If you have cleavage good for you, but do not let the twins hang out and make all of the little people feel sorry for themselves. 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.

PULL UP THOSE PANTS

No one really wants to see your underpants in public. Fashion today with many males show it acceptable to wear their pants lower to show there underpants. Personally I do not think it is appropriate. It looks like a sloppy and careless wardrobe effort.

  

There are things that will help this matter. For example, wearing a belt (which clearly in this picture does not help), using a string or ribbon, or just wearing pants at the waist line. What makes this look attractive? Is it the sexiness that this man's shirt shows some "man butt cleavage?" Or is it his sexy style that his pants are about to fall down? The real question is that if any person who has this look has had their pants fallen down more than once. Whatever it is it should be fixed because I do not think the world wants to know what color your underpants are. Here are some great suggestions:

Pajamas should stay at home!!!

The new look these days is wearing pajamas outside the home and it is looking a little sloppy. The young adults are wearing Victoria's Secret PINK yoga pants and matching sweatshirts. Or my personal favorite (hint the sarcasm) is pajama pants that are ripped and torn with a dirty plain tee shirt. It literary looks as if they had rolled out of bed. There is a sense of self respect with fashion and jumping out of bed is not the way to do it.



My thoughts are is that there are a million different things that a person can wear beside pajamas. My professors have always said to never leave the house wearing pajamas because you never know who you are going to meet. So ladies and gentlemen lets strap on some jeans and a clean shirt. fashion can be effortless if it is planned, basic, or simply accessible. Planing outfits the night before will save some time if a person is running late. Using basic jeans and classic clean tees that you can dress up with accessories. Organization of  your closet can make it easier to find things to wear. So come on people, lets get out of pajamas in the morning because who knows you could meet Brad Pitt tomorrow.

Mom is at the Bar with Your Dress on...

Not that there is anything wrong with moms going to the bar, BUT what i do not understand is that she is wearing her daughter's dress. Looking young is IN and if you fall behind it could be tragic. 40 has become the new 20 and conservatism is OUT. Mom is going to wear your skin tight spandex dress to the bar whether you like it or not. Now in my opinion a women can where what ever they want, but fashion is the judge. We need to give mom a new look for the bar or a night on the town that is more age appropriate.

Random Mom

So lets give mom a new look. You want your dress back, right? Lets suggest stores like JCrew, Ann Taylor, Nordstrom, or Kohl's Simply Vera section. Ann Taylor has classic little black dresses that would be great to dress up with colored heels and loud accessories. Simply Vera turns a women's outfit from day to night using classic silhouettes and elegant yet unique accessories. So ladies don not let your mom steal your dress.
