Save the Turtleneck.


         Honestly, I feel bad for the turtleneck. It was never the coolest kid in the bunch. It's past association with the most acute academics, the many horrid patterns and textures that have been unwillingly applied, and not to mention its name! Turtleneck. Really? Poor PR job. The truth is, the turtleneck has significant potential. Just because the turtleneck appears to be conservative and somewhat prude at times, does not mean that it cannot be stylish. Try a sheer turtleneck like AKIRA offers here. It's suggestive, chic and yet still, somehow, a turtleneck.

Sea Foam Spring.



               Some say it may be a little premature, but honestly it's never too early to start thinking about what to wear for the upcoming season. There seems to be a surplus of colour palettes coming Spring's way, but one colour that has settled in my forefront is sea foam green. Christian Dior displayed some of their most strikingly elegant gowns for Spring/Summer 2012 in the refreshing minty hue. The colour is so soft and welcoming that I genuinely feel that those who wear sea foam green must be good people. Now If the sea foam is too kind for you, pair it with accents of black and you'll regain some of that edge.
