Dope Ambition

Marc Jacobs once said: “No one dictates fashion to the women I know. I truly believe in wearing whatever you want, wherever you want.” Well said. therefore, mixing bold prints such as tribal prints with a more subdued plaid does not equal a fashion faux-pas, but rather fabulous quirky concoction.

Of course, she isn’t the first to show a little skin; Eva Mendes’s ads for Calvin Klein have received heated reviews. Some say they are overtly sexual (they are), and claim they are too racy for billboards (give me a break)!

Well, it only makes sense for the it girl of the moment to follow in the footsteps of her predecessors by showing off her assets in the new Armani underwear campaign. Sultry, no?

Thoughts?

In these days and times, everyone seems to feel the need to express themselves through the art we know as tattoos. Celebrities, models, (we did a feature on these),  and everyone and their mothers have been inked in the most incredible places: I have seen tattoos on feet (I have one), on wrists, arms, backs, necks, behind the ears, collar bones (I have one); overall, either our generation is out to prove something with body art, or we have ironically grown more outspoken in a way that cannot be described.

Of course, fashion finds its ways into everyone’s lives by keeping an eye and an ear on the everyday growing trends. Karl Lagerfeld, aka Unkle Karl, is no exception. He has remained closely tied to pop culture in a way Andy Warhol was: he almost creates a segment of pop-culture while implementing its stars at the same time; (ie, the Lily Allen campaign). Therefore, it comes as no surprise that temporary tattoos were seen adorned across models shoulders and legs in a plethora of fashions.

So forget the needle; Chanel’s pearls can be applied and taken off in a matter of days. Fashion has made temporary tats glam. Who would have thought?

Starting March 1st, these lovelies will be available for purchase in the brand’s outlets around the world.
