Chirstmas Gift For Teenagers
Dec 18th
It’s that time of the year again, when many people will begin their Christmas shopping. This article reads as a selection of fashion related Christmas gift ideas for both male and female teenagers. All of the items mentioned are available across all price ranges so that they can be tailored to individual budgets.
Fashionable Christmas Gifts for Teenage Girls
Teenage girls are notoriously difficult to buy for, and a lot of the time it is easiest simply to ask what they wants. However, for those of you confident about shopping for a teenage girl, here are some ideas:
Jewelry – It is best to keep it basic unless you know the person really well. If in doubt, include an exchange card.
Books, magazines and DVDs – Find out if she is into Twilight, Gossip Girl or something else entirely and choose books, movies and TV shows on DVD accordingly. Magazine subscriptions are also a good idea.
Cosmetics – Many girls are very specific about colors and brands of (face) make-up, but it is hard to go wrong with a nail polish, hand cream/body lotion or bath scrub. You could also make a gift basket containing several of these items.
Stylish Presents for Teenage Boys
Though (usually) easier to buy for than girls, choosing Christmas gifts for teenage boys can also be a challenge. An easy way to avoid wasting money on a gift he is never going to use is to scope out his style and interests before you go shopping.
Key Chains – These are a very easy gift to choose, as there is such a large range – from branded key chains to novelty or joke ones.
T-shits – Clothes are easier to buy for boys than for girls as the sizing doesn’t have to be as precise. T-shirts in particular make great presents as they are easy to judge the right size and come in all colors and prints.
Electronic Gadgets – While many guys will already have a cell phone and an MP3 player, for those who don’t these items are a great accessory and fabulous Christmas present.
Food – While not typically thought of as “stylish and fashionable,” a nice box of chocolates or hamper of food will win the hearts of many teenage boys.
How To Look Glamourous On Christmas
Dec 6th
Fashion this season is all about retro elegance, designers across the board have paid homage to lady like chic and in doing so have opened the door to a much more polished, grown up look. Making the most of your figure and showing it off to its full advantage, whatever your shape or size, is what its all about.
All eras have been covered from the flapper style of the 30’s to the secretarial style of the 50’s and the bohemian trend of the 60’s. Whether it be a beautiful evening dress, a sexy bejewelled camisole, a faux fur stole or a checked pencil skirt; there really is something out there to flatter every figure.
Turquoise and purple remain the colours to be seen in, hems are generally low, ribbon trims and slim belts are defining waistlines and sparkle and glitz are a must. Simplicity is the key, makeup and hair should look soft and natural and accessories should be understated not in your face, this Christmas just let your outfit do the talking….
Below we have pulled together the key Christmas trends and looks to get you sailing through this party season looking effortlessly stylish.
Boho
Suits: Tall, and boyish frames
Avoid: Plus size and large breasted ladies
The bohemian trend has been polished up for the party season and is a continuation of what was the hottest look of the summer. Gone are the staple day wear of cowboy boots and poncho, in there place is a look which oozes laid back sophistication. Flowing and long this amazing Chloe inspired beaded strapless dress from Monsoon is in this seasons hot colour. Look out for similar styles in blues, greens, pinks and purples. The key is natural elegance, long and fluid, the beading adds an ethnic feel, try wearing some chunky wooden beads or ethnic inspired jewellery to enhance the overall look, there is a fabulous selection in John Lewis at the moment and like wise in Topshop. Choose simple strappy heels or wooden wedges to finish off.
Aristocrat
Suits: All shapes and sizes
Avoid: Too many clashes
Eclectic elegance is best way to describe the Aristocrat trend. Its all about mixing it up; chiffon, lace, satin, prints, faux fur, tweed; virtually anything goes and its an easy trend to manipulate. A fur stole and some chandelier earrings will instantly update your long party dress from last Christmas and achieve the look without costing a fortune.
A simple black dress like this chiffon tea dress from Topshop or a fifties strapless A-line prom dress are perfect, subtle colour can be picked up through your jewellery and the faux fur of the tippet is a real contrast to the chiffon will also evan out a bottom heavy frame. Funky tights are great but generally best left to the teenagers; simple black opaques’ with gorgeous heels will keep your outfit looking elegant. Think high society!
Bejewelled
Suits: All shapes and sizes
Avoid; Sequin overload
One of the main trends to come off the Fall 2004 catwalks was jewels sparkles and glitz.
Whether in the form of a beaded tops jackets and cardigans, jewelled skirts or sequined capes, embellishment has been universal, enhancing the retro vintage feel of the season.
This beaded flapper style dress from Kookai is a great example, team it with jeans for a paired down look or invest in some colourful tights, which again is a huge trend for winter. Alternatively there are loads of sequined camisoles and tops around which would look great with wide leg trousers and a pretty cardigan to cover up.
You can also just use accessories to get the look. Skinny sequin scarves are available across the high street and can add stylish sparkle to any outfit. Colourful brooches on cardigans and lapels, thin beads and bracelets and even jewelled shoes (there are some great ones at New Look) can also create the same effect. It is by far the easiest of trends to recreate and the mantra ‘less is more’ is certainly worth remembering. Lady like glamour for all in an instant.
Lady Like/Sexy Secretary
Suits: Boyish, hourglass and tall frames
Avoid: Not a good shape for petite or pear shaped ladies
Curves are back! The fifties revival at Prada has been a huge influence on the high street with pencil skirts in tweed and checks literally everywhere. Although not the easiest shape to pull off, a pencil skirt generally looks best on a boyish frame. Try not to choose one in a thick fabric, as this will make you look larger.
A better option is a curve hugging skirt with a flip out hem and either a skinny or really wide belt. This jacket and skirt suit from Oasis’s ‘New Vintage’ range is based on the Fifties silhouette made famous by Chanel and is great for the hourglass figure. Team with a pussy bow shirt or silk camisole and finish off with seamed tights and some round toed heels as seen at Marc Jacobs for super sexy sophistication.
Studio 54
Suits: Mostly all shapes and sizes
Avoid: Be more careful if you are a larger lady
Masculine tailoring reminiscent of Bianca Jagger in her studio 54 days ’ has seen a steady resurgence. Sleek simple sophistication is the key to the look which is accessible to all sizes, there a loads of suits on the high street but try and find a cut that flatters your shape and stick to chic black or cream for ultimate impact.
We love this sequined jacket and black tuxedo pants from Monsoon. It’s a great look for petite, tall and boyish figures alike. Wearing head to toe in one colour will help to elongate a petite frame, the wide ribbon belt helps to give more definition to the waist, worn with wide legged trousers its also great for taller ladies. Accessorize with some black pointed court shoes or kitten heels, a simple clutch bag, little or no jewellery and a dry martini!

Winter Clothes For Better Looks
Nov 30th
Apparel, has led the evolution of materials to make clothing more comfortable and functional. No more wear on each other vests, sweaters, shirts, hoodies and so on. to protect the cold, but is more functional and comfortable clothing to choose a specific, less bulky, and certainly more effective.
The garment is more important to the runner what you put in direct contact with skin.Years ago the most popular were those shirts of cotton, the high power absorption of sweat. The downside of cotton shirts is the fact that they dry very slowly, greatly increasing the discomfort, and it seems that the cold penetrates to the bone.Recently, T-shirts to put on in direct contact with the skin are made of polyester, a product which, while absorbing the sweat, the “away” from the innermost layer to the outer. In this way, the sweat can evaporate or be absorbed by another garment on top so that the skin remains dry.
On the polyester shirt you can wear a shirt a bit ‘heavier than that leads to skin, and a third layer that protects from cold, or rain. This garment, as well as being protective and repellent to rain and humidity, must at the same time provide for the passage to the outside, the heat produced by the body. It should be avoided, however, the classic jacket nylon, in favor of Gore Texas for the legs, but also should be covered with less protection than the trunk for moving more, produce large amounts of heat. For this reason, it is enough that the legs are covered by a single layer. And ‘member should wear a leotard, and even in this case polyester fiber blended with a more elastic (spandex), to give maximum freedom to the movements of the legs. In case of rain, you can always wear trousers in Gore-Tex.
Since the middle of the heat produced by the body under stress is removed from the head, it is important that you are running with their heads covered, even if it is convenient to remove it when you feel hot, because the head is removed a large amount of heat. For those who have problems running with the cap even when it’s really cold, ears and forehead are in need of repair, and above it to prevent diseases from developing cooling. In this case there are large sections, fleece, which wrap around the face and ears.
To adequately cover the hands of gloves is advisable to keep warm because the polyester, but also make the skin to breathe. In addition, these gloves are lightweight and water repellent enough. For those who are very sensitive to cold hands, gloves should rather put the knobs that hold the heat more effectively.
Feet, to prevent the sweat is water entering the shoe when running in the rain, wet skin, I suggest you use Cool Max socks, too absorbent and repellent effect.
A rule of thumb to avoid dressing too, and then get very hot while running and sweating profusely, is to feel a bit ‘cold shortly after it started to run. After five to ten minutes from the start, the heat produced by the body spreads throughout the body disappears and the discomfort of the cold.
