I grew up in the age of the Supermodel, and we knew them by first name then...Elle, Linda, Christy, Claudia, Naomi...and Cindy. Now, they've all done very well for themselves in terms of aging (perhaps with assistance, maybe not), but the Supermodel who looks the most comfortable having strutted right off the runway and into normal civilian life, to me, is Cindy Crawford.Her style, whether dressed
Malaysia’s education minister rejected complaints from religious groups that schoolgirl uniforms were too sexy and invited rape by men. Education Minister Hishammuddin Hussein, responded by saying, “It is unfair to punish women and children and the clothes they wear for the act of rapists. From what I have seen, clothing is not the main consderation [...]
Vivid brights top our list of favorite spring fashion trends. Grass green, hot pink, cobalt, yellow, orange: we love them all. Wear It: Pick a bright color to wear next to your face that's flattering (blues, greens and pinks look great on almost anyone). Save the harder-to-wear colors (yellow and orange) for pops of color in footwear and handbags. Split V-neck collar layered with ruffles adorns

The full figured woman demands more when it comes to her fashion apparel. There are a multitude of options today when it comes to plus size blouses and tops; the full figured woman expects more in terms of quality and fashion. Style is a large part of who we are and how we feel. If [...]
Who say cufflinks are only for men? These days, I have seen many smartly tailored women’s blouses that go well with silver cufflinks. One of my favourite brand names for women’s blouses are the ones at Alain Figaret, who also opened the first boutique in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at the Gardens. Though Alain Figaret is more known for his luxury men’s shirts, I adore his cuts for the women’s collection - smart, simple, unpretentious, elegant and very fine in style. Who say all white blouses are the same?

With so many retailers out there making promises that are almost impossible to keep, Jag Apparel promises nothing that cannot be kept, and [...]
There are few things as quickly changing as the plus size apparel worn by the full figured woman. For centuries, society has accepted that men may have been a little more hefty than what is considered the classical norm. However, the full figured woman is considered different and often ostracized for being outside of the [...]
When it comes to finding appropriately sized plus size blouses, you will often find that many retailers offer a multitude of choices for you to choose from. However, not all retailers offer sizes that fit those multitudes of choices. When you are a plus size woman, fit is extremely important. Not only do you look [...]
Before the industry wised up it was very hard to get any real fashion when buying plus size blouses. Thank goodness the industry has realized that this is the population that spends the most money. There are some great on-line stores now, which have all of the most fashionable styles so one never needs to [...]
Yes, Fall is here! I simply adore those natural colors. The fall ushers in cooler weather, and of course, cool new fashions including one of my favorite categories – plus size blouses.
Plus size blouses change from season to season, but they also tend to change according to other popular fashion trends. Instead of plus size [...]
Hey friends! days gone when sarees and blouse talks were just confined to moms and aunties. Defination of saree and blouses have changed and they are considered to be the sexiest outfit these days. Traditionally cholis were worn as lehenga tops but now days traditionas are bit modified. Instead of wearing a blouse with a saree, women love to combine a plain saree dress with a heavy embroidered choli blouse. These choli blouses may be short or long. The styles may differ. But the fact is that they are form a perfect combo and looks extreamly sexy. Choli blouses are very much in vogue and one must give it a try!

After a very volatile and shocking day from watching The View, I had to do something to clear my aura, heh. I felt I needed to do some retail therapy. The one true tested cure for what ails every fashionista in the world. LOL. Hey, it’s better than eating a whole bundt of pound cake, right? Not that I do that anyway, i’m just saying. But since this Momma is broke, I had to do it in a way I wouldn’t regret at the end of the day. Online Window Shopping. Yes, the credit card is a few steps behind me but a Bargain Styler would always think first before buying something. Even if it’s actually on SALE.
I love printed blouses. I’ve been trying to slowly keep adding them in my wardrobe staples. The inception of different prints like florals, geometrics, dots, nature tones, and stripes these days are making me a happy styling Momma.
So what did I find for under $20?

One of the major trends for Spring 2007 is ruffles and bows on absolutely everything. These cute and feminine touches are accenting everything from purses to shoes lately.
The newest trend for spring when it comes to girly embellishments is the ruffled blouse.
Blouses like the purple top above (Nannette Lepore - $242) and the white top on the right (Joie - $105) are splurges, but there are affordable options as well.
This yellow top (below) by dELiA*s is an adorable version of the same style, for a fraction of the price ($32.50!!) Plus, we all know yellow is a hot color for spring.
These blouses look great with everything from jeans to a denim skirt to nice pants. They are fun and romantic and great for spring, but they also don’t make you look like you’re trying too hard.
Another great example of an affordable ruffled blouse is this blue one from Guess? (on the right.) It’s $59 which is a little more expensive, but it’s so adorable and versatile that I def

I just finished making my first piece that I can wear! In the past they have always been for my girls, costumes, or home decorating.
I made Simplicity 3842 View A in a gorgeous chocolate brown Rayon with an aqua pattern which worked nicely. The shirt had an inner false shirt underneath to give it the look of a layered top. I followed the directions to the "T", but when i tried it on it was tight in the bust. I finally figured that if i removed the fake layer underneath, It fit great. I simply sewed a piece behind the low v-neck to make it look like there was another layer, but i do not have the bulk or the tightness.
I am now off to sew my daughter's halloween costume followed by the flannel night gowns I promised all three, the cord. jumper for my youngest, the wool blend pants for me.....
Hope this may help someone!

i've seen a dozen or so really cute springy tops in RTW and have to put them back on the rack once i see they tie in the back. Now for a 50-something...do you think twice or just wear these? I have the feeling they're a little bit joovie but some of the tops are otherwise really nice and flattering also. I did buy TWO yesterday and one of them i can remove the ties. Thought i'd come here to take a pulse on this before I start ripp'in! :confused:Last post by sewfrequent at Sun 20 Apr 2008 06:23:11 PM Total posts: 11
