The metal ankle strap is the clincher for me, so unique!

Dig It
I am so digging the color green right now, more specifically an emerald green. I came across this dress on ASOS.com and immediately loved it. It is the ASOS Skater Dress With Ballet Wrap And Short Sleeves in green and it is $38.29 CDN. I find v-necks very flattering for us bustier gals and the wrap dress is the perfect figure flattering shape if you are a more boyish body type.
I have SO MANY dresses already that I really shouldn't get this but I likely will :-)

I have the silly gown....
This is a collection of some of my favorite dresses. Some are really old school but I love them none the less. These are images that I HAVE to stop and stare at every time I see them. These women are all beautiful but these gowns give them a luminous quality that you can't get in jeans and a t-shirt. What are your favorite dresses?
The Red Dress
I always saw, I always said
If I were grown and free,
I'd have a gown of reddest red
As fine as you could see,
To wear out walking, sleek and slow,
Upon a Summer day,
And there'd be one to see me so
And flip the world away.
And he would be a gallant one,
With stars behind his eyes,
And hair like metal in the sun,
And lips too warm for lies.
I always saw us, gay and good,
High honored in the town.
Now I am grown to womanhood....
I have the silly gown.

Style for Days
For this edition of Style for Days, I am going to focus on the less fair sex :-)
With Justin Timberlake hosting SNL last weekend and appearing on Jimmy Fallon all week, I thought it would be perfect to feature his fashion sense. And he has it, in droves!

Justin always looks effortlessly polished, sophisticated with a boyish charm no matter if he is wearing jeans and a T-Shirt or a Tux.

His style is casual cool and he creatively lends his fashion sense to his own line of clothing called William Rast, named for a combination of Timberlake's grandfather's first name and Trace Ayala's (JT's partner) grandfather's last name. The label is best known for their denim and some have said that these jeans fit a woman's ass like nothing else :-) I personally don't own a pair..... yet!

I am guilty of not completely loving Justin's new single, Suit & Tie Feat. Jay-Z. I first thought it sounded a little too elevator-music-like. But the single has grown on me and I have an appreciation for the sound he was going for. Are you excited about Justin's return to music?

I think that someone is trying to copy JT's look here, don't you? Source: porhomme.com
Justin's confidence is his best style feature, in my opinion. He really has helped steer men's style away from frat-boy sloppy to chic, put-together looks without looking like he is trying to too hard.
Let me know what you think about JT's style in the comments!

Green with Envy (for cheap)!
I picked up this cute green dress at Wal-Mart today. The belt is mine and I got it from a store in Montreal (can't remember where). I thought this dress would be perfect for my trip to the Turks. What do you think?

Style for Days.....
Style for Days will be posts about those fashion icons who inspire us and I hope you enjoy what you see. The first of this series may seem a little "out there" but I LOVE her style none the less.
Dita Von Teese!
Fig 1
Fig 2
Fig 3
Fig 4
Fig 5 Yep, that's what she wears just running errands about town!
Yes she is a burlesque dancer. Yes she was married to Marilyn Manson. Yes she loves to wear sexy lingerie and do a bit of fetish modeling (who doesn't!). But who can claim that this woman doesn't know what she is doing when she puts her "look" together in the morning?
What impresses me about her style is the attention to detail she demonstrates. Everything is carefully thought out from her 50's inspired hair to her flawless makeup and her unique accessories. Take a look at Figure 4, the close up shows her choice of wicked hot sunglasses, a perfectly sultry red pout and the lovely broach that she uses to add some sparkle to her low cut dress.She always looks sophisticated, polished, sexy and well....she just looks the way a Woman should look. To me anyway :-)
