Quotes Of The Day:

And Now "Mad Men" Nail Polish

Mad Men Nail Polish

"Mad Men" costume designer Janie Bryant wins my award for multitasking and branding this year. Not only is she extraordinary at outfitting the cast in '60s-era fashions and designing a QVC line based on "Mad Men," but she's also adding nail polish to her growing to-do list. Bryant has partnered with Nailtini, a brand based in California, to create four limited-edition nail lacquers based on the hit show. She says she was inspired by the fabrics of the era, velvet, satins, and lamé—the stuff a glamorous cocktail dress is made of. The colors will be Bourbon Satin, a brown; French 75, a gold; Deauville, a platinum; and Stinger, an iridescence. The lacquers will retail for $14 each at CVS' Beauty 360 and Duane Reade's Look stores. All we need now are "Mad Men"-inspired foods and all of our senses will be touched by the show. "Mad Men" fever is now an epidemic! [WWD]

If You're 13 Years Old, Add This Word To Your Vocabulary

Lola

Fashion catchphrases come and go. Everyone was obsessed with "fierce" for a while, "fashionista" had its reigning moment, but now Lourdes Ciccone is working hard to add a new term to the world's vocabulary. She's been blogging non-stop about the new Material Girls' Collection for Macy's, and in between her style stories, It Girl features, and personal pictures, Lola's introduced a new fashion term to her followers.

"I'm not the designer of the line but my mom and I inspired it and do the styling and the putting together, staying on trend, yadayadayaaaahh. No but for rizzle, it's a great line and if you guys like it that that is FABNOSITY."

We're going to assume that fabnosity is a mix of fabulous and generosity, which would make sense given the context. Despite her genuine attempts to make the term work, this seems like a word that's limited to the realm of 13-year-old girls who would use it for a week before it dies out again in favor of the latest hot vocab mashup.

Calvin Klein Gets In On The Leggings Game A Little Too Late?

Calvin Klein Ultra Fit

Come fall, Calvin Klein Legwear will launch Ultra Fit, a line of control tights and leggings. The opaque jersey tights and leggings will have a a ribbed control top, flat seams, and a comfortable, wide waistband that stays flat against the stomach. Ultra Fit is meant to give the wearer a sleek and clean appearance. Now you might be asking yourself: "Isn't it a little late for Calvin Klein to get into the leggings game? Didn't leggings hit the fashion graveyard?"

These Fiber Optic High Heels Will Light Up Your Toes

Fiber Optic Shoes

Fiber optic shoes? Now that's something new. Sure, we've seen light-up heels before. Strippers have been wearing glow in the dark heels for years, and Rodarte has picked up the glowing shoes trend, too. This time around, Italian designer Francesca Castagnacci has created a high heel outfitted with fiber optics that transform regular pumps into illuminated show-stoppers. So how'd she do it? "Utilizing new technologies in advanced textile creation, Castagnacci wove delicate fiber optic materials and LEDs throughout the shoes, creating a work of art that's absolutely otherworldly," Pipeline reports. We want video. [Pipeline]

Justin Timberlake's William Rast Teams With Target

Justin Timberlake's William Rast Teams With Target

Having perused the men's section at Target a few times, I've come to the conclusion that male shoppers of the retailer like their clothes boring and tame. Khakis, striped polos, and cargo pants abound. The section is nothing like the women's department, where Target has figured out how to cater to the soccer moms and cheerleaders, while also offering avant garde designer wear for the style geek on a budget. Target's collaboration with Justin Timberlake's William Rast will take the men's department and women's to the next level, though. William Rast, which Justin founded with his friend Trace Ayala, is known for its biker-influenced clothes and jeans. The label offers a rock star edge that also has that laid-back L.A. vibe, so it will be interesting how this attitude translates for the Target customer. At least on Dec. 19, when the collaboration collection premieres, Target will have more than a graphic T-shirt to offer to their fashion forward male customers. And I might finally be able to get a William Rast leather jacket, which normally retails for almost $400. [WWD]

Elle Creative Director Joe Zee Wanders New York City In A Chanel Fur Suit

Don't get me wrong, I love me some Joe Zee. But if you watch "The City," Elle magazine's creative director comes across as fun but a little bit of a hard-nose. Here, though, in this hilarious video, we get to see another side of Zee, making fun of himself. For some reason, Zee decided it would be a good idea to meander through the streets of Manhattan during a heatwave looking for the zoo and wearing a giant faux-fur suit from Chanel's fall-winter runway show. It's Yeti Zee! Watch as Joe sunbathes his fur, gets a hairball, and tells everyone his hair is couture. [Racked]

from: How Sunglasses Work



Most of us, when we hit the store or boutique and reach fo those sunglasses, do not really think on how the sunglasses should work for us in exchange of those bucks, but rather, get it, place it to the eyes and look at the mirror. If it looks good, then buy it. If it costs much, then more people gets to buy it.


This is the common scenario when buying sunglasses.


Is a ten-dollar sunglasses as affective as hundred-dollar sunglasses? Does price constitute effectiveness? This is one of the biggest mistakes made by consumers. Th price or the brand does not spell the quality that you eally need. Your common sunglasses can provide the same protection provided by Gucci or any designer's sunglasses.


On top of fashion and shading your eyes from disguise or whatsoever, sunglasses do more that that. Here are few key things to think about when buying those sunglasses.


The right sunglasses could protect your eyes for years to come from harmful UV rays that could potentially cause macular degeneration and blindness.


Moreover, there are four things good sunglasses should do. First, sunglasses should provide protection from the harmful UV rays in sunlight. Second, it should provide protection from intense light. Third, provide glare protection. And lastly, eliminate specific frequencies of light.


Try to use polarized lenses, made of Polaroid polarized plastic sheet, to reduce glare caused by light reflected from polarizing surfaces such as water. Also choose sunglasses that have been coated with protection against the UV rays.


You want to select a pair of sunglasses that have a 99% or 100% UV protection. The UV protection is what keeps the harmful UV rays out and protect you eyes. UV rays can cause blindness and macular degeneration.


Most sunglasses provide these four in one item. The right sunglasses made with lenses with polarization, photo-chromatic lenses or anti-reflective coatings are a great place to start in protecting your eyes.


The biggest problem with some cheap sunglasses is the way the lenses are made. Many are made with ordinary tinted plastic that does not include the extra coatings and protections. If you are an outdoor enthusiast or you spend a lot of time driving in the daytime, it is important to buy sunglasses accordingly.


Polarized glasses protect from the glare of water, snow and asphalt. So you don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars on the right sunglasses, but make sure you are getting what your eyes need to keep them safe and healthy.
