Slumdog Fashion on the rise...

April 10th 2009 15:41
After the debut of the Slumdog Millionnaire movie, Bolly fashion has been one of the crazes on the rise in the entertainment and fashion industry. The movie debuted a wide variety of beautiful and unique bolly fashion. With tones of deep orange, blues and green's, the fashion industry has welcomed it's style. But I do wonder(of course), why it's called Bolly and why it's entertainment elite is called Bollywood? Maybe you guys can help me out, if you know, please comment and teach me a thing or two And also, why call it Bollywood? Maybe after Hollywood? Probably right! Well, I totally understand the pun on it's actors and Hollywood, but I am lost pertaining to the bollyness of it.




I like this piece, it kinda reminds ya of Aladdin. Highly sexy and princessisy(if that's a word). The world has totally embraced their fashion culture, which is rich in detail and embellishment. When I refer to their, I'm speaking of the Arabic world, including India, etc.



This is one of my favorite bolly fashion pieces. I love the rich color and the design. It's not something that I would wear everyday, but it's definately something that I would love to have in my closet, that I can bring out for a special event or occasion. It will definately make a huge fashion statement.




I really like the first piece, though it's not something that I may wear to work, but it's something you I would wear out with friends, I call this a 'speechless' piece!
The second is something that you might catch me in at the job, though, it's a little too plain for me. I definately would change the accessories to liven it up a lttle bit, but to me, its a fashion hit! I think this trend will not be around for too long, as in others, but I do believe that the best of Bolly fashion is yet to come!

I love fashion but I believe that there is some glitches in it's communication with us, normal folks. Don't want to be too deep or anything, but I will be reveiling my top ten thoughts as to what I do NOT like about some things. Each day, I will reveal a new one. Today, I am reveiling number 10:

10. I hate that some trends don't last long enough!

I bet you agree with me. As soon as I find a trend that I like, you know, the kind of like that makes you want to wear it everyday, no seriously ,not everyday, but a lot? I do know that fashion is ever changing, ever evolving, but God, as soon as we get into the groove of this fashion thang, they go and change it all over again. Do you remember when big, feathered bangs were in? I do and I'm not that old, but I use to wear them. Also, when the trends we like leave the fashion scene, they just go and bring it back in style a couple of years later. And I'm thinking, "wait a minute, I just brought all of that stuff to the thrift store or gave it to the Salvation Army, I should have kept it ALL!" Right, instead of getting rid of all your old, out dated items, just keep, because trust me, their going to be back in style in a couple of years. And if not, still keep them, you can wear them and call it 'VINTAGE'. You know, vintage is code for, 'old but new again'.

Check out this totally 80's look by a young Madonna who actually wore this in the 80's....



Now check this pic of Kate Moss, some girl and Paris Hilton, now don't they look like they were at the same party as 80's Madonna?



But their in this century!! Prove's my point, EXACTLY!! What's the point of getting rid of anything except for to help maybe those in need not because you can't maybe use them again. Till next time, check back in to Concrete Threads to view my number 9, on Countdown to things I hate about people and fashion!

Michelle Obama---gotta love her! Being that she and her husband Barak Obama, are the first African American president America has seen. Her style and fashion supercedes most in politics, making her a role model and fashion diva, many has come to fashion after.
I'm not sure if she measure's up to all of the hype mentioned in fashion though. I do truely love her style, classic, colorful, taylored, etc, but does she truely have what it takes to become one of the most fashionable diva's in our modern history.



YOU BETCHA! Many of you might highly differ with me but you have to check her fashion record sweety Mostly, not everything, she wears hits the fashion currency mark exactly. (I would be lieing if I stating that I liked or have loved everything that she's wore) Nevertheless, we can't always get it right all of the time. Michelle Obama has truely inspired me personally as the rest of the world with her class and swagger.

I am a AA woman in American and I believe that she represents my culture well. Her husband Barak Obama has truely found someone worthy enough, fashion and style wise, to be called 'First Lady' of the United States of America. I do believe that we will be talking about her keen since of style, dress, clothing and fashion for many years to come. The pics below shows her beautiful ensemble worn to visit the Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth herself at Windsor Palace during the G-20 Summit. Michelle visited children, schools, bought alms and gifts, everything that dignitary in her spot light would do. Of couse she had mockers, in regards to her 'touching the queen'. You have to understand that we 'Americans' are pure 'down home folks' especially African Americans. We are outgoing and no one is a stranger that crosses our paths.



I would love to meet Michelle Obama, talk to her, possibly sip green tea and talk and share idea's on how to raise our children and be the best wives that we can be. Not to mention she is, in my opinion, a great bargain shopper(J.Crew, etc.) Now this woman could be buying the most exquisite of worldwide fashions, and the most expensive, but she and her husband chooses to support our designers and american made clothing. KUDDO's!!



London and Queen Elizabeth never knew what hit them when Air Force one landed on their patch of the world. Hopefully, Michele did not mess up too bad and Queen Elizabeth welcome's her back soon!

I've been asked a lot for opinion on what to wear and what not to wear this summer. We all wan't to be in fashion and in line with current Summer 08 trends, but we can do without the fashion mishaps or miscommunications. The definition of fashion miscommunication is wearing an ensemble or piece of fashion because you might have seen someone else wear it or 'do it' that way. PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS PEOPLE!!!! So I've brainstormed my own personal list of Summer fashion do's and don'ts.

Do's:

Check my SHOE WORK!!

June 23rd 2008 23:30
I LOVE SHOES!! I think I may be totally obsessed with shoes. I REPEAT, I LOVE SHOES!! I really don’t know how many pair I currently have, but trust me it’s a LOT(LOL)! But what young woman doesn’t like shoes. All sorts of shoes. Shoes give me that tingly feeling on the inside, you know, that ooooohhhhhh, aaaaaahhhh, feeling. Let me stop. Everyone has something. A food fetish, a banana fetish, well I (and many of you) have SHOE fetishes. If I don’t have enough money to buy that “me” outfit, I will settle investing a great pair of manolo’s, pump’s, boots or hills. Anyday…..

I recently saw Sex in the City, the movie with Sarah Jessica Parker and oh baby the Shoe!!!!!! See, that’s what I love about chick flicks, though I don’t like all. But at least chick flicks cater to us, women. A great flick with display great style and fashion, something most of us respect and draw from. The main type of shoes displayed in the movie is the Jimmy Choo shoe. Jimmy Choo started around 10 years ago in a small town in England. Bet he never guessed his company would be so international and famous. A very smart, let me repeat, a VERY smart woman by the name of Tamara Mellon, knew of Mr. Choo’s tremendous success in her native, England and proposed a business gesture for him. Thankfully, he accepted and that propelled the Jimmy Choo company that we all know of today, WHOOPEE

We! We! Louis!

Everyone probably already know’s what bag this is. You might even know who sports it, especially if you watch daytime TV. I love all handbags, especially fashionable ones such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Fendi. I would have to say that this might be one of my favorite bags of all time, actually coming from the most recognizable designer’s of all time.

Louis Vuitton and his French style has influenced and left a huge mark on the fashion industry, specifically handbags. So much so, Vuitton is also infiltrating the jewelry scene with a new jewelry line and more
