Fashion Design

Fashion design is the art of the application of design and aesthetics or natural beauty to clothing and accessories. Fashion design is influenced by cultural and social attitudes, and has varied over time and place. Fashion designers work in a number of ways in designing clothing and accessories. Some work alone or as part of a team. They attempt to satisfy consumer desire for aesthetically designed clothing; and, because of the time required to bring a garment onto the market, must at times anticipate changing consumer tastes. Some designers in fact have a reputation which enables them to set fashion trends.

Fashion Clothing for Teens

Fashion Clothing

Fashion clothing does not mean expensive designer wears but any piece of garment that will make you look like a fashion diva. A slim harem pant paired with a lacy tank top with black or beige oxfords is extremely stylish. Complete the look with a robust black watch and a cocoon cardigan. If you want a more elegant style, go for the classic American style. For this style pick up a black peplum dress, pair it up with a drapey cardigan. Top it up with a jeweled necklace and black high heels for the fabulous retro look.
For a soft velvety smooth look try a pale pink lace tank top and pair it with an off-white bandage skirt, for your feet loud pink or green suede pumps are perfect fits. Accessorizing with a big floral headband and a floral pattern engraved ring will compliment the attire. Therefore, you see fashion clothing is all about how fashionable you can get with simple line of clothing.

Citrus-C Facial Cleanser

I have to say I'm a very self-conscious person and always, always hard on myself. That's why in a sort of mean, selfish kind of way I'm happy that the days of really fabulous models -- models with personalities and distinctive characteristics -- like Linda, Christy, Claudia, and Cindy -- are gone. Instead today we are left with 14 year old stick figures who are practically indistinguishable from one another -- why is this good? I see them and marvel at the clothes and makeup and pay zero attention to the models themselves -- if I see Naomi walking down a runway or Christie Brinkley on the cover of New York Magazine that's when I get down on myself (funny how insecurities never go away...). One model though that I think takes the cake even more so than the original supermodels is Gisele -- the girl has got it going on..damn! And what I love most about her is that she has a toned and fit body, something my lazy, averse to working-out self admires and of course, she has fabulous golden brown skin -- which my white as paper self admires even more!!:) So of course I tried Lamas Beauty's Citrus-C Facial Cleanser ($19, but I've seen it cheaper, so you may be able to surf around and find it for less), when I heard that she's a fan (funny too that I jumped on it, because for the most part I'll try anything on my body, but am very picky when it comes to cleansers since my skin is super-sensitive..). I have to say that I love the smell of this cleanser -- you def have to love orange though -- it reminds me of those orange popsicles filled with vanilla ice-cream (anyone else eat those when they were younger!?). It's also organic, paraben-free, and works great as a makeup remover:) Also, its supposedly good for acne-prone skin. I haven't used it long enough to say for sure whether it can help your complexion beyond just removing impurities, but the soothing effect of the chamomile and the smell are enough to get my approval:)

Moss still best dressed - just

 Dressing down ... Kate Moss models her collection for Top shop.

Kate Moss got a triple slap in the face from Harper's Bazaar fashion magazine, whose best dressed women in Britain 2007 list comes out tomorrow.

Russian model Natalia Vodianova was ranked the best dressed woman of 2007, followed by British actress Thandie Newton and British model Agyness Deyn - nicknamed "the new Kate Moss" by the British press.

Outside the top 10, Jemima Khan, ex wife of Pakistani cricketer-turned- politician Imran Khan was ranked 12th; US singer Madonna came 15th and singer and activist Bob Geldof's daughter Peaches was 17th.

British actresses Sienna Miller (18th), Keira Knightley (21st), Rachel Weisz (22nd), Kate Winslet (23rd) and Emma Watson (24th) came further down the list.

The full list appears in the December issue of Harper's Bazaar.
