Say it isn't so...


My heart sank when I got wind of the latest fashion trend... yes folks, the dreaded fanny pack has made a come back and I'm not sure how to feel about it. Having grown up in the 90's i had my fair share of fanny packs but in the 90's they should stay! well my hideous leather patchwork ones anyway. 


I must admit I heard about their "revival" a good few moths ago and I simply chose to ignore it but lately they have been popping up everywhere! On the runway, on celebrities, they don't seem to be going away... so instead of trying to put it at the back of my mind I decided to do some research and was pleasantly surprised- no longer are they poorly made, leathery waist bags of hideousness they are actually quite cute (and you have to admit, really handy) 





Some celebrities like Tyra Banks and Kesha have even decide to don the fanny pack, Rihanna being the biggest fan. 

                

whether the packs can make a fully fledged comeback is uncertain... I tend to put them in the same fashion no-no box as the mullet but hey, anything can happen

Green with Envy


Green has hit the runway and every red carpet (worth being on) with full force. Whether you are envious or wouldn't be seen dead in this unusual choice, however, is entirely up to you. If you are bold enough to try out this sensual shade make sure you stick to a few simple rules:


1. Choose the right green - you dont want to look like you're wrapped in seaweed nor do you want to glow in the dark
Good Green
Bad, bad green!


2. Choose the right length for your body - green is already a daring choice so don't over do it
Victoria gets it so wrong with this
tiny mess of a mini dress
Rihanna gets it right with  this floor
length off the shoulder gown, showing
just enough skin
3.Accessorize correctly - keep it minimal and keep it cool
Kate Moss looks fab in this gorgeous green maxi dress
with a funky black leather jacket
4. If you're going to a special event keep it elegant, ladies - it's easy to look like a prom queen gone wrong

how NOT to wear green to
a special event
Angelina and Mila look absolutely
stunning in their floor length gowns


5. Men can wear green too! yes, it is possible and sometimes it looks damn good 
Pair up a dark green shirt with a black blazer and you have a winner
