A new decade has dawned, bringing with it exciting new trends that inspire our imagination. In this same situation ten years ago, who could have predicted what would be in style today?

New styles come on the scene every few years. For this reason, concentrating mainly on the latest developments in fashion is the most practical approach.

2010 has some hot new looks, so let's take a peek. I'd like to restrict our research to women's shoes. I'm crazy about shoes and just love writing about them. I just love wearing them as well!

I have a big shoe collection that never stops growing. I'd like to tell you about the ones heading my list of favorites at the moment.

Christian Louboutin's designs are all ultra chic these days. Take a look at the reptile leathers. With tons of personality and a big wow factor, you're guaranteed an unforgettable entrance in those.

I'm also excited about the Roberto Cavalli ankle lace. It's a fun boot in sleek black leather that boasts a fairly high heel and laces around the ankle. It's a go-anywhere style that can be teamed up with all kinds of outfits.

A surprising new trend lately is the thigh-high boot with high heels. Although not the easiest style to wear, they compensate for this with the stunning look they create.

On a final note, the Hunter rain boot is making a welcome return to the stores. Hunter Wellies will offer a practical and trendy alternative to your usual sneakers when the weather turns wet.

Not only do these boots keep you in fashion, they're also very easy on your feet, which puts them at the top of my list for rainy days.

fashion icons

Some of the most renowned fashion icons never really knew or expected they would be considered icons at some point in history. It is impossible to imagine fashion without its Hollywood influence; and vice versa. There are some mystic characters whose style went a little further away then the big screen, straight to the sales rack in every kind of store.

The most recent example can be the leathered jacket style worn by Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones; seen and admired for two decades but today with the new movie, it was reborn. Another leather jacket is James Dean's in Rebel without a cause; this 1954 icon was a favorite amongst the younger crowd. For the more classic men, Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca was the perfect model to follow.

Aviator glasses like Tom Cruise's on Top Gun were a sensation in the 80's and it has been brought back to these days. Black glasses and long black coats remind today's generation of Neo on the Matrix movies.

Colors also play a big role in identifying fashion icon followers; especially the sexiest women in film. Black for example, makes you think of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's as well as white on the other hand, which covered the most desirable body in Hollywood, Marilyn Monroe and her famous scene in The Seven Year Itch, the most recreated scene in Hollywood history. Pastels are reminded of the elegance that Jackie-O transported everywhere she went with her regal and classic style.

nude fashion show

Wig designer Charlie Le Mindu raised eyebrows by sending nude models down the runway at his London Fashion Week fashion show.

Well, that's one way to get our attention.

Wearing bubblegum pink platform boots (by Lady Gaga's favorite heel-less shoe designer Noritaka Tatehana), handbags, Le Mindu's eccentric hats and wigs (also a Gaga go-to), and not much else, the starkers models flashed the rapt audience.

And you thought your job was tough.

Wow. After Gaga's VMAs meat dresses and Jeremy Scott's prosciutto pieces, we knew flesh was in. We just didn't realize that it would be our own!

Speaking of daredevil models, check out this vertical fashion show.

michelle obama fashion

Whatever Michelle Obama wears in public is destined to become just as infamous as she is. You can tell when she steps out of the White House that she is completely comfortable and confident in what she is wearing. She may have been helped along by a professional stylist or two, but from the first day she hit the spotlight beside her now-President husband Barak Obama she stole the fashion limelight.

Michelle's style is completely classy yet feminine in a subtle manner. You probably won't catch her wearing pink lace very often, but you can find her wearing tops that seem to flow gracefully from her body with the perfect accessories to bring out her feminine whiles in a very classy manner.

What you won't ever catch Michelle Obama wearing is anything that shows her butt cheeks or lets her breasts come out for a tan. She covers her body and dresses in a manner befitting the First Lady, but she also has a sense of elegance and classic style that every woman wants to imitate. She has shown the world that you can be womanly and sensual without being overtly sexual.

The Rise of Obama Fashion

Michelle Obama first splashed into the fashion headlines when her husband decided to run for president of the United States. She stood by his side at one event after the other, always elegantly poised and full of passionate words that conveyed a message of hope and positivity.

While her words of wisdom got some quotes in newspapers, it was her immaculate style of dress that was splashed across headlines all over the world. Everyone instantly fell in love with her classy, fresh style that caught the attention of everyone in the audience or watching on television.

90s fashion

Some people claim that 90s fashion was horrible and will never be repeated, but I say those people are complete idiots. I have a deep and lustful affinity for all 90s fashion. From plaid shirts, plaid skirts, and Nirvana t-shirts to faded Levi's and neon colors, 90s fashion will NEVER go out of style.

The 80s were just ending and the world needed a transitional period in order to evolve past the antiquated notions of jheri curls, teased-out hair-dos and cocaine. Something flashy and fun and extreme seemed like the next logical step.

It all goes back to my earliest years watching Beverly Hills, 90210. Having a sister four years my senior, being babysat by her meant being subjected to all the stereotypical teen girl television because she was always in control of the remote due to seniority. This included shows like The Real World, My So-Called Life, and the aforementioned pinnacle of teen entertainment, 90210. I would usually dread these kinds of teenage-girl-oriented television shows and loathe every minute I spent viewing them, but then I really started to like them.

Over time, the tendrils of their asinine drama and white people problems overwhelmed me with the promise of more asinine drama and white people problems to come. There was no denying that teenage entertainment had taken a hold of me and I was left alone to pick up the pieces.

All I could do was sit back, admire the beautiful women, and get sucked into the world of Donnas and Brendas and Pucks and all the good things that the 90s brought to the table. The pinnacle of 90s fashion, however, was the behemoth of teenage entertainment. There was no show that could touch the level of petty squabbles and beautiful adolescents than the one show to rule them all--Beverly Hills, 90210.

The information and brodcasting had done it again. Continuing with its shocking parental attitude, the I&B ministry has now decided that programs like 'midnight hot' on FTV are too obscene for Indian viewers. It apparently is in conflict with our great and highly sensitive 'cultural' values and 'likely to adversely affect public morality'. Yeah? Well, Mr. Dasmunsi, eat shit.

Its really very hard to understand how individuals such as Mr. Dasmunsi take it upon themselves to decide what is good or bad for us. I personally take it as a deep insult on my intellect and a dirct stab at my basic freedoms.

Anyway, it never ceases to amaze me how people seem to be completely unaware of the most basic fact that the more you stop people fro mdoing something, the more motivated they are to do it. This is really such a basic truth of life. You see it all the time and everywhere.

It's fun to follow fashion trends sometimes, particularly those that suit your body type. Trendy clothes spice up otherwise basic, and sometimes boring, outfits. The addition of a trendy garment to your closet can broaden your choices and help you get a fresh take on combining the various clothes you already own in new and exciting ways. Deciding to follow a fashion trend can be a positive thing but there is something regarding fashion trends that you need to be wary of. Within the broad group of trends, there is a type of trend known as the 'micro trend' and this is the sort of trend that you need to be wary of adopting.

A micro trend is a 'mini' trend or a trend within a trend. It is usually short-lived, often no more than a season at the most and so is not worth investing in. In fact, you should try to spend as little cash as you can on this type of trend because of its brief lifespan in the fashion cycle. They can sometimes be confused with major trends because popular women's magazines may include them alongside major trends in their fashion editorials. So how do you spot a mini trend given that the fashion editorials don't always identify them as such?

Micro trends are quirky and strange. If you think wearing a particular trend might make you look a) like you have a job in the circus, b) you raided your little sister's closet or c) just plain idiotic; chances are you are looking at a mini trend. A micro trend is when a basic jacket is covered in sequins, or a handbag is shaped like a plush toy dinosaur. Fluorescent lime green nail gloss and bubblegum-hued lipstick are mini trends. Wearing socks with killer heels is also a micro trend as is dying your hair grey when you're not old.

There are lots of different things that you should keep in mind when it comes to fashion. Sometimes, it is important to think about the way that you look and the way that others see you. It is important to look and feel your best so that you can continue to be successful at your life. In order to avoid being called in by the fashion police, there are a few tips that you can follow, and a few coupons that you can use to allow you to get great fashion at a fraction of the cost.

First of all, a good way to think about staying in fashion is just to pay attention to what people are wearing around you. Looking at the ads and finding coupons for great deals isn't going to help you unless you know what you want to look like. Look at the people who are around you each day and see what they are wearing, and the people you think look the best should have a great example of the fashion that you want to aspire to.

It doesn't take much to be in fashion. Something that you want to remember is a lot about fashion is simply being comfortable with who you are and being in clothing that is comfortable as well. You can do this easily, and you can allow yourself to have the pleasure of looking great while you do. It shouldn't be something that is hard, and with the right coupons, it doesn't need to be something that is expensive, either.

It is obvious that winter sweaters no longer feel quite right and certainly the summer means the beach, but in between ski parkas and speedos, how is a guy supposed to dress? March to September is a long stretch of time to be seen wandering around in white socks and sandals or the college t-shirt that is now older than your first child.

From shirts to shoes, shorts to sunglasses, these never-fail items work every year and will keep you from embarrassing yourself and your family, or worse, looking like your own father.

fashion gone rogue

There are guys that like nothing more than playing games with women as it gives them a sense of A POWER which feeds an ego often as big as a ball park.

They have the gift of the gab and know all the moves necessary to get their latest quest between the sheets of their much-used king-size bed.

This is the M.O of the classic player who has no interest in a deep and meaningful relationship, which he considers, would tie him down like a shipwrecked anchor crashing on the rocks. He is also highly allergic to the sound of words like love, commitment and worst of all marriage.

In days gone by he was referred to as a playboy because his goal in life was to bed as many women as possible. He was considered a lovable rogue whose only crime was to seduce unsuspecting women who thought there was more to this philanderer than a one-night stand.
