Style, Fashion and Accessories in Winter 2008

from Olga and Olena

Shoes! Why do women always need more shoes? This is a question that even psychologists can not really answer but it is a fact. Therefore, it is no wonder that shoes are pretty much at the top of the hottest fashion shopping this season. So, what else is hot?



My European style resources and some research state that juicy colors and shiny textures are rocking in winter 2008. This is also true here, in the States. No specific requirements to heels were discovered: both, flat shoes and high heels of various shapes are in demand. And BOOTS (shoe royalty forever), of course! Among other items on the Most Popular designer list are:

-Jeans and classy career pants (wow, no low cut this season!) with a blouse in (as suggested by D&G, Chanel, Diesel, Prada);

-Warm coats with shorter sleeves (3/4);

-Massive fashion accessories and wide belts (no news here);

-Massive fashion accessories and wide belts (no news here);

-Natural fur: especially stunning in silver-gray and bluish white tones. Please note that criticism of the idea (if you happen to be against natural fur and leather) is not applicable to me. The design came from the 2008 collections of Borbonese, Carmen Marc Valvo,Trussardi , Alberta Ferretti.
