Peplum!!

Not only is this word fun to say but man does it ever look gorgeous on anyone! The peplum cut is universally flattering to any figure, it hides any belly and hip insecurities, what more can a girl ask for. This trend has appeared in so many designer's recent collections, the 50's cut/mad men inspired looks are pulling the peplum out of it's shell. And am I ever glad it did, whether it be a peplum skirt, dress or top it's the easiest thing to wear. With this trend you should sport tight fitted clothing and let the pep be the only flare in the outfit, it'll show off your awesome curves! I don't know how long this trend will stick so hurry up and get some pep ladies!

Oh and I've changed the font for this post, thoughts? I'm thinking of making this one permanent...


Lots of love,

Runway to Real Way

Here is a recently awakened trend, I think with all this nice sunny weather people are getting the summer itch so summer trends are popping up sooner this year... the trend is floral prints!! With all the digital technology these days fun funky prints are easier to come by, so these bold prints are making a big statement on the fashion industry. Floral was seen a lot on the Spring runways for example Diane Von Furstenberg, Isabel Marant, Louis Vuitton and many more collections this season featured the floral trend.


















































I personally love this trend for the spring because it's very fun, flirty and it's cool to play around with. You can dress it up or down, floral skinny's with a blazer, or a floral blazer with harem pants, which ever way you choose to wear this trend it'll benefit you gracefully.

















































For my curvy girls I would stick with a medium bloom not to over whelm your figure we want to accentuate your curves the right way so you look like a goddess! For my petite girly's if you are to wear print floral pants, I would stick a skinny cut with a smaller bloom to make your legs look a mile long! Well ladies that's it for this trend report, I hope you guys try being bold with this one. Let this piece speak for itself and tone down the rest of your outfit, runway isn't always the way you should take on the trend, make it your own!

polaroids.

Dear aspiring models,
the first step to success in the modeling industry is to get signed. In order to do so you need you must catch the attention of agencies or scouting agents. Any agency or scout could ask you to provide them with "Polaroid pictures" which are pictures of you looking at your most natural (bare to minimal makeup, naturel hair and natural lighting) and to have tight fitted clothes and or a bathing suit. These shots must include one full length, side profiles, and waist up. Again these pictures are very useful for models to have on hand, because being overly prepared is better then nothing at all.  So that was my wisdom for today, hope it helped! Here are my Polaroids.. enjoy (p.s. the window shots aren't for the polaroids, those are just for fun! hehe)

model of the moment.

Dear Hipsters,
I have recently discovered a model named Freja Beha Erichsen, I wanted to share her with you guys. She has this very edgy/hipster look, very unique face. Since she is my recent obsession I felt she deserved a spot on my blog. Oh and her tattoo's are super cool, loveeee the word bracelet (not quite sure what it says).

Voila!

Lots of love from your one and only,
Jess

new adventures.

Dear admirer's,
I am pleased to announce that I am officially a signed model! I am beyond excited to join the ranks of incredible woman over at City Models. I met with the Director Angela Champagnoni this past Monday and I could not be more happy with my decision to join the agency. Being a fashion enthusiast it was inevitable that modeling would appeal to me, but never in my wildest dreams would I have thought it would take me so far, nor that I would become so fond of the craft. I get quite a thrill being in front of a camera, and I've become accustom to practicing poses in front of the mirror (as the great Tyra Banks has taught me!). So the point of this post was to bring you guys this amazing news and to remind myself of the feeling I have been living with these past few days, the incredible joy that I have and the feeling of something great rising. I am forever grateful for this opportunity and can't wait to start this adventure into the fashion industry. My gratitude is strong this week and shall stay with me forever, thanks to everyone that helped me get to this point.

Lots of love,
Jess

trends.

Dear fashionista’s,

The point of my post today was to help you girls achieve the tribal trend! As I have talked about before I have styled a shoot themed to the tribal trend, so I’ll pass along the knowledge of pulling this trend off in your day to day life, because the editorials of this trend can seems a bit wild to pull off at times.

So a loose definition of this trend is bold tribal like pattern (often in earth tones), monochromatic prints, bold accessories (wooden, rustic, bold statements). Now if you want to keeps this trend to a minimum try letting the print speak for itself, so paring it with simple staples in your wardrobe (plain basics), or if you want to invest very little into the trend, try just the tribal like accessories with your day to day wardrobe. But if you’re feeling daring for a night on the town try committing to the trend completely, tribal patterns, the bold accessories with hair and makeup to match. This trend is so fun to play with because you can literally be wild, messy hair goes great with this trend and fun/ funky makeup is also very relevant.

So ladies, be bold! Try bringing this trend into your day to day style; bring out your inner wild child you won’t regret it... aaand if you do at least you tried!

Lots of love,

Jess.

P.S. Happy International Women’s day!!
