Spring 2013 Trend Predictions

  • "Cool Girl" shorts/loose "Bermuda" shorts: This was quite the trend in the past, now being brought back in a much different way. The loose carefree look is bound to become very hot amongst buyers
Peter Som, Rag & Bone, DKNY
  • Sunnies/Bold Sunglasses: I LOVE THIS TREND! These statement glasses are cute! They're fun and playful but also so chic. This will also be easy for stores like Forever21 to replicate designers for a much cheaper priceAnna Sui, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Diane von Furstenberg
  • Beaded Details: These details somewhat remind me of Bollywood and the sari's that the women wear. I like the colors aswell as how intricate the beads make the garments look.
Oscar de la Renta, Altuzarra, Marchesa
  • Low Kitten Heels: I actually am not a fan of this trend, but I have already seen it in multiple stores and some females do enjoy the lower heel. I think if I'm going to wear a heeled shoe I'm going to go all or nothing, not half way. These kind of remind me of my grandma's shoes.
Peter Som, Marc Jacobs

My Make-up Regime (Quick Morning 3 steps)

Having to wake up at 6 am is hard enough, but trying to look good is even harder. I've managed to cut my make up routine into three super quick steps that give me healthy skin and a casual yet put together look that works perfectly for the days I'm in a rush to get to class.




1. Wash face with St.Ives Apricot scrub (exfoliance) and pat dry with a cotton towel finishing off with Lancome Aquafusion moisturizer. Both of these really make skin feel soft and clean.



2. Use lancome dual finish powder and subtil rose blush, this lightly covers blemishes and evens out skintone without the harsh unneccasary use of concealer, cover-up, and foundation.


3. For eyes I usually do a light smokey eye with an Urban Decay NAKED pallete, and for super long lashes use Lancome Oscillation Mascara.

A$AP ROCKY FASHION INSPIRATION

  • Gold Chain

  • Round glasses


  • Grills
 

  • Army Print



i love all of these trends so much, A$AP featured most of these looks in his music videos and during performances. His music is very much like his fashion sense, its very unique with a lot of street and hip hop influences. He brought back many old trends, aswell as music styles on his new album LIVE LOVE A$AP.

CURRENT FAVORITE MODEL..Barbara Palvin

Top 3 Wedding Trends for 2013

1. Foil Stamped Wedding Invitations: Varying in colors from Silver, Bronze, and Gold and different fonts/designs, we're seeing alot more foil stamping on textured paper being used for a classic looking wedding invitation.


2. Peony: The most requested wedding flower for the past two years has changed from Roses and Lillies to the lush Peony. But due to the fact that they're only in bloom for two months out of the year, we're finding that brides need to have a back-up flower in case of shortage.

3. Lace: Wedding dresses are going to be featuring lots of lace this year! Trends like scallops, lace layers, and intricate beading have always been prevelent but this year lace is extremely expected. It looks gorgeous on many dresses designed by Ann Taylor, Justin Alexander, Tara Keely, and many more.

Kim Kardashian Curls ♥

This girl does amazing make-up transformations and hair/make-up tutorials varying from Disney princesses, halloween inspired cartoon looks, and celebrity looks. I use her tips all the time, and this was one of my favorite hairstyles mainly because its really easy and can pull together a look much better than a plain flat iron or a ponytail.

Upcoming Air Jordan Releases of 2013

  • 2013 Air Jordan Release
  • Air Jordan V, Air Jordan I "Year of The Snake", and Air Jordan I Retro High OG, (ft.above) are all new Air Jordans which are to be released Fall of 2013
  • Each of these shoes range from $120-$180 which is around the general price for these shoes
  • In my opinion, Air Jordan is planning on releasing many new shoes all somewhat styled similarly to the first image of the Air Jordan V and although these shoes are a classic style of the shoe they are slowly becoming generic whereas the "Year of the Snake" are much more unique and different

ॐ about me ॐ

★ My names Sara Sieracki, been dope since '95, born and raised in Philly, currently residing in Northern Virginia, destined to take over New York.

IM ALL ABOUT GOOD VIBES

★ I love cats, my boyfriend, rock and roll, asian cuisine (I favor vietnamese food), self discovery, poetry, fashion, hip hop, cars, body modification (I'd rather observe than participate), traveling by plane, social media, and freedom

★ Karrueche Tran and Asa Sultan inspire my eyes

★ Fairies and butterflies inspire my heart

★Big Sean, Nirvana, and Afrojack inspire my ears

★ My unknown future inspires my mind

★Brief Self Description...5'3, hazel eyes, blonde (thanks to many boxes of hair color), extremely altruistic, quite a dreamer, self diagnosed OCD & ADD, I notice everything and say nothing...my mama called me a wallflower once.

★I'm currently retracing my steps on the path of life, apparently I lost myself along the way...But whats the fun of walking in the woods if you don't stop to talk to the trees? They have more to say than most of you realize.

I'm here to show you that theres more to the world than trying to make a living, like changing it then looking back and saying we did it.
