The Note Book - Valentines Day 2012 Ideas

Bring back the Romance...

to valentines day with my new 

heart-throb:

Ruche

Ruche is my new favorite online shop that's filled with

the most gorgeous collections of everything that a girl

needs in her closet... definitely a must-visit!

So everyone remembers The Notebook,

most girls favourite tear-jerker movie.

I think why we loves this one so much was because not only

for the beautiful and feminine fashion of that time, but for the raw romance 

that the two main characters show on screen...

Valentines day isn't all about the sexy lingerie and chocolate and champagne

(for more on that you better go check out my post:

My Bloody (Gorgeous) Valentine

It's also about you, your partner and about cherishing the

love that you're lucky to have together... 

And why not do that in the style and

sophistication that encompassed The Notebook? ;)

Above are four PERFECT dresses for Valentines day

that you can buy right now at Ruche! They have an entire section

entitled "Simply Smitten" that it choc-fulled of gorgeous attire

for your day out in the park or on a little row-boat on the lake...

Now I know how difficult it can be to buy something for a guy... and sometimes

we get bored of the same old sweets or t-shirt idea. 

On Ruche there's also a section for brilliant Valentines Gift ideas...

these... books are ALWAYS a great idea!!

Pretty in Peplum!

Peplum for the People...

............................

Next to buttons and shoes, Peplums are the next

longest living things that exist in fashion... well at least it would seem :)

The word "PEPLUM" dates back to the 19th Century,

and simply means "tunic". Back then, a peplum was

an "over-skirt" that was usually attached to a slim fitted jacket:

On February the 12th, 1947, Christian Dior shocked and pleased

the fashion world with what is now known as the "New Look".

His forward thinking designs won him the title of being the 

first ever fashion designer to be pictured on the cover of TIME MAGAZINE

in 1957:

............ 

Christian Dior popularized the Peplum dress, and it is making a HUGE comeback for spring/summer 2012

fashion houses all over the world:

There are MANY different styles and interpretations 

of the Peplum. If you read my blog often you'll know that

MODCLOTH.COM

is my number one go-to place for anything retro, vintage or

unique.

Look below for some amazingly gorgeous modern

updates of the peplum...

SAG Awards 2012 - Hair Trend

Braids and Plaits

..............................

seem to be quite popular at this years SAG awards.

Never mind the amazing dresses, what caught me was this

little lovely girly hair trend that was seen on a few of the famous faces...

To best create this vintage look, try not wash your hair for

a day or two if you can stretch it that far, as then your plaits will be

less "frizzy" and will hold nicely in place! Also,

if you're feeling like royalty like the ladies below, twist it around

your head to create a crown-like effect... there really is a million

different things you can do with your hair and plaits providing,

of course, that you have the length to do it!

But if not, fear not, there are plenty of shops that 

sell hair pieces that can give you the same look :)

Gorgeous!
