New focus on wedding dress queen in Hollywood

If we want to select a fashion lady who is most influential and representative in last century, Jacqueline Kennedy is undoubtedly the most suitable person. She left a deep impression on us in the American history. She was not only a beloved wife of American president John Kennedy but also had an insuperable statue in the fashion industry.
Jacqueline was born in a rich family in American. She owned beautiful garden, favorite horse and book since she was born. And she was deeply influenced by Audrey Hepburn and Chanel when she was still a little girl.
From the early times when she took part in the campaign along with her husband Kennedy, her elegant evening dress, white gloves, hat and bag became a classical picture of her. Each time, her pretty appearance became focus of people all over the world. As first lady of American, it was a critical question to make her complicate dressing stand out in the campaign. Jacqueline knew exactly to build her stunning style by using lots of pearl and retro ornaments.
She was beloved by people as a first lady, especially women who modeled her, learning her manners, speech, behavior and evening her dressing. Her each word, manner and dressing detail left us with an endless aftertaste. She had her own view on dressing, which successfully advocated the fashion trend of America. After half a century, Edith Head, the Hollywood notable fashion designer, said she was a best dresser in the history. Editor-in-chief of the Fashion magazine said Jacqueline brought taste and elegance to the White House and even America.
No matter how life changes, people’s pursuit of fashion remains unchanged. She lost her husband at the age of 34, and then she married Aristotle Sokratis Onassis, a Greek shipping tycoon who was as rich as a country. From then on, a new dawn came to her life. And the fans imitated her new image: extravagant jewels, symbolic sunglasses and luxurious evening dress of Gipsy style.

Of course, Jacqueline had to thanks her good friend and designer Oleg Cassini who helped build up her icon image. In the autumn of 1960, Jacqueline asked Cassini to make an original closet of the first lady for her. Since then, many of her style made by Cassini went down to posterity and became classical style in the fashion history. Including the light yellow brown coat and evening dress she wore on Inauguration Day. Since Cassini’s successful design for the first lady, there had been no design work that could compete with his early design. In the recent one or two years, a nostalgic wind waved in the fashion industry, leading to the reappearance of Jacqueline’s knee-high suit skirt, turndown collar cost, sleeveless A shape Satin Prom Dresses, gloves and cap with a flat circular top.

Jacqueline left a deep impression on people at her times. She showed others her real charming of vivid character. Times has passed, but her beauty still remains in our heart. She is still worthy of imitation for the fashion industry.

Two Days With The Richmond 48 Hour Film Project

When Joanne “Jo” Rowling famously decided to publish her Harry Potter series under the initials ‘J.K’, my first thought was it seemed quite old school move. I mean, it was 1997 when Potter was created, not 1846. Are we still in a time where we need to hide the frightful sight of a woman’s name in order to avoid prejudice? J.K Rowling’s publishers decided this was a good idea in order to attract more young male readers. If these audiences would not have read the books because of a woman’s name on the cover (“Joanne? Bleugh! A GIRLY BOOK!”), this rings (loud) sexism alarm bells, but no one seemed to really notice it.view more

How to determine your face shape


Silhouette: Trumpet

Oval faces are perfectly balanced, characterized by a narrow chin and higher cheekbones. If you have this face shape, consider yourself lucky because nearly every frame will suit you, according to Eden Wexler of Solstice Sunglasses. Just make sure the shades are sized in proportion to your face.
  • Celebrity with this face shape: Eva Mendes
  • The best frames for you: Cat-eye, oversized rounds and square sunglasses
2

Square face

Square face -- Demi Moore
People with square-shaped faces tend to have a broad forehead, wide cheekbones and a prominent jaw line, Wexler says. The goal is to soften and balance a strong jaw line when finding sunglasses for this face shape.
Those with square-shaped faces should make sure the top of the frame sits higher on the face to balance the jaw line. Steer clear of boxy frames, which will only exaggerate the squareness of the face. “Just like finding the best romantic match, picking the perfect pair of sunglasses follows the same rule of thumb: 'Opposites attract,'" says eyewear expert Blake Kuwahara, owner of Focus Group West Eyewear Consultancy in Los Angeles.
  • Celebrities with this face shape: Demi Moore and Salma Hayek
  • The best frames for you: Round, oval and vintage-looking cat-eye sunglasses
3

Round face

Round Face -- Michelle Williams
Round faces have very few or no angles to them, Wexler explains. The width and length of the face tend to be similar, so selecting frames that are the opposite of your face shape will balance out and counteract the fullness of the face, she says. This means steering clear of frames that are curvy or round.
Rectangular and square-shaped sunglasses add angles to a round face, while wide frames help balance fullness, Wexler says. You can also try frames with contrasting colors or a cat-eye shape to add a visual lift to a rounder face.
For those without a prominent nose bridge (to support the frames) and full cheeks, consider frames with nose pads to keep the glasses from resting heavily on the cheeks, Wexler suggests.
  • Celebrities with this face shape: Michelle Williams and Queen Latifah
  • The best frames for you: Rectangular, square-shaped and retro-style sunglasses
4

Long face

Long face -- Sarah Jessica Parker
This face shape is longer than it is wide and narrow from the top of the forehead to the chin, with rounded edges. Long face shapes are also characterized by high cheekbones, a strong jaw line and a raised forehead, Wexler says.
The goal is to find frames that will visually shorten and soften the face to balance the length.
Options include wrap-around frames — which add width to a long face — and wide frames (such as an oversized round pair) that create the illusion of having a shorter and wider face. Avoid narrow or small frames because they emphasize length, she says.
Celebrity with this face shape: Sarah Jessica Parker
The best frames for you: Sunglasses with embellishment, oversized frames, frames with contrasting coloring and embellishment
5

Heart-shaped face

Heart-shaped face -- Reese Witherspoon
Heart-shaped faces are characterized by a wide forehead, high cheekbones, and a narrow jaw line or pointed chin, Wexler says.
The goal for this face shape is to find sunglasses to broaden the appearance of the jaw line and minimize the width of the forehead. To balance the proportions of your face, choose frames that are wider at the bottom, like aviators or rounded Jackie O sunglasses. Rimless frames are also a good choice, as they highlight your cheekbones and draw the eye away from a wide forehead, Wexler says. Small frames on a heart-shaped face will exaggerate the width of the face, she cautions.

The name of the color says it all; royal blue is just that, a royal color that used to be made and worn by the elite and wealthy. The story goes that the shade came to be because of millers who were making a dress for the British queen, Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. The color is bright, rich and comes in many dimensions. Depending on the fabric it is on, royal blue takes on many various hues. No matter how you wear it, the royal color screams its richness and we wanted to emphasize just how amazing it would look on a pair of women’s shoes. The shoe you wear is the heart of your outfit, it is the cherry on top of the sundae if we may and the thing that will make a woman stand tall and feel sexy. A good pair of shoes is the essence of everything, almost life changing. This is why it is important to represent your shoes the best way you know how and that is by choosing a vivid, stand out color. Royal blue shoes can be worn with neutrals, matched with royal blue, and even worn to contrast an already bright outfit. The color stands out no matter what and will definitely get people complimenting your shoes for years to come. Check out some great finds from Ladies Outfitters that focuses all on the royal blue women’s shoe and as a little treat we even have shoes on sale!
We have a wide selection that targets this amazing color and one we wanted to start with is a brand new arrival from Blossom that literally takes the cake when it comes to women’s shoes. The satin like and glitter jeweled strappy women’s pump may just become your go-to dress pump. The shoe is open toe, includes an adjustable ankle strap and comes with a glitter platform and heel along with a jeweled toe strap. The entire shoe is elegantly blinged out for your dress needs to make it stand out and pop. The royal blue color of this shoe is something that needs to be seen in person to believe just how pretty it is. Olivia Palermo is a fan of the royal blue strappy heel like the one she wore in a Jimmy Choo campaign.  Another fancy and sexy dress shoe comes from Paris Hilton (the girl knows shoes) in the slip-on closed toe satin pump with strap and silver toned heel. Easy and effortless to wear and oh so very comfortable is this shoe from the famous socialite turned designer. Lea Michelle of Glee made her royal blue shoes the main detail of her entire outfit. She wore a nude dress (there go those neutral colors) with a bright, suede royal blue shoe. We cannot emphasize just how amazing this color is.
To own a classic women’s pump is practically a rite of passage for a lady. They have a great silhouette, make you stand tall and lean, and have been known to improve your posture. Two celebrity ladies who know how to make the ideal pair of pumps are Jessica Simpson and Paris Hilton. Jessica Simpson brought us the “Jasmint” pump is a hidden platform suede royal blue version. This one includes a slightly pointed toe that stand on a 1.5 inch platform and 5 inch heel. Imagine these paired with an LBD or better yet a contrasting pink or red much like Shay Mitchell did when she paired her royal blue pumps with a pink and orange ensemble or Carri Mulligan when she paired her royal blue’s with a red floral dress. The two ladies did the color right but making it contrast with the rest of their ensemble. 
Ladies Outfitters is all about brining you unique and up and coming style so that you are never our of the loop and always styled to perfection. One women’s shoe that will help you be more unique than you ever dreamed of is the Privileged by J.C. Dossier spiked rhinestone platform curved suede Mary Jane wedge. Large spikes line the edge of this very high 6 inch wedge that stands on a 2 inch platform, why do we mention it? Because it comes in an amazing bright royal blue hue! Another feature that Ladies Outfitters has that the others may not; women’s shoes on sale! Yep, we have a whole category dedicated to sale items that include many, many shoes but the one we love the most is the Paris Hilton patent leather platform peep toe with wood heel stiletto. The insole is cushioned, the heel is 5 inches tall and the platform is at 1 inch giving you an incredibly amazing lift. All in all, Ladies Outfitters can promise that you will be thrilled with your shoes and even happier that you chose this amazing hue to decorate your pretty feet with.
